Make Your Mark: Ultimate Jam: UPDATE!

Earlier today, Mashable gave us a little sneak peak of what Bella Thorne (Rocky) Zendaya (CeCe) will do with their virtual penguin mascots!


Club Penguin is bringing a mega-dance party to the kids social network with the help of Disney Channel stars Bella Thorne and Zendaya from “Shake It Up.”
Starting tomorrow till the end of July, kids can meet the CeCe and Rocky penguin avatars, dress their penguins in outfits inspired by the girls’ looks and deck out their igloos with dance-themed decor. Kids can even choreograph on-stage dance performances for their avatars with friends and unlock tailor-made CeCe and Rocky dance moves from the popular Disney Channel show.
Along with the event, Club Penguin is releasing their first ever music video, called “The Party Starts Now.” The song (above) will play in virtual Club Penguinconcerts that kids’ avatars can attend, or they can purchase the song on iTunes and Amazon.
This is the first time Club Penguin (owned by Disney) has introduced Disney Channel stars into the virtual space.
Bella and Zendaya tell Mashable that despite being teenagers, they still enjoy playing the site’s games.

“It’s a safe environment. It’s family-friendly. It’s a safe place for you to trust your kid and have fun, but be protected,” they say.
The girls add that the CeCe and Rocky avatars were “spot on” in mimicking the girls accessories, style and personalities.
But their favorite part of the Club Penguin event, Zendaya says, is seeing penguins dance like their characters.
“It’s super cute and hilarious,” she says.
