Jason David Frank Addresses Austin St. John Beef Rumors | Power Rangers
There have been rumors of late that original Mighty Morphin Power Rangers actors Austin St. John and Jason David Frank aren't getting along too well these days, and Frank decided to address those head on.
In an interview with The Hashtag Show, Frank was asked about Power Morphicon 2018, which he'll be attending for the first time since 2010. Frank is hopeful that the show will answer any lingering doubts fans might have about the camaraderie of the original cast.
"I hope everyone will be there meaning the actors. This would be a good chance and a good shot for everyone to kill this rumor stuff about this beef stuff going on online. I highly encourage and tell you right now I would love to do a panel with the originals, including Amy [Jo Johnson] I don't know if she's available. We have no issues. I haven't talked to Austin all that much except for the movie premiere, but that's all old stuff, just stupid stuff, and right now with the internet it's like "hey what's the beef, what's going on?" There's no beef. Now's the time for everyone to just get together and get along."
Frank also said it was rumors like this that led to an attempted shooting at Phoenix Comic-Con.
"It's spiraling out of control and it is putting people's lives in danger including mine at Phoenix Comic Con because of all this underground stuff. I had a fan that possibly knew the guy that the whole underground beef was he's believing Austin's side of the story. There's no other, there's no Austin side of the story."
"It's fans that choose to take those sides" Frank continued, "and it's fans that choose to take my side. So, in reality, you're going back to what, what gangs used to be? What Tupac and Biggie used to be? Now you have the Comic-Con world where people are like "we don't like the Green Ranger, we like the Red Ranger. We don't like this, we don't like that, so I have an idea, let's just go kill these people." It's becoming dangerous."
Hopefully, there won't be any drama at Power Morphicon 6, and fans can just see their favorite Power Rangers all up on stage together once again. At the end of the day, that's all anyone really wants, including the Rangers themselves.

Drake Bell Reveals How He Really Feels About Josh Peck After All That Wedding Drama
Drake Bell was pretty upset after he didn't get the invite to Josh Peck's wedding...but that's apparently all in the past.
As you may recall, the actor sent out some cryptic tweets following his former Drake & Josh co-star's wedding with Paige O'Brien. However, Bell sat down with E! News and promised they're still great friends.
"I kinda shot from the hip. I was like, 'This is wrong! Why am I finding out about this on social media?'" he admitted of his reaction to Peck's marriage news. "I just felt like a bummed out brother, just kind of hurt. But it does nothing to our relationship."
Bell continued, explaining, "I mean, we're brothers. We're friends. He's been one of my dearest friends for the past 18 years. He's one of the people that I know for a fact, no matter what happens in life, I can call Josh at any time of the day and he'll be right there for me. If he's not in some other country or something, then he'll be there."
Bell also noted that they still talk "all the time," but their relationship has its ups and downs, which he describes as the "yin and yang of brotherly love."
Meanwhile, Bell also opened up about another former co-star, Amanda Bynes.
The two worked together on The Amanda Show from 1999 to 2001—a time during which Bell said he learned a lot from Bynes.

"My memory of working with Amanda Bynes is just that she was incredible," he gushed. "I was a fan of All That before I even came onto the show…She was a star! But then to see her work ethic and to watch how—we had actors on our show who were adults, seasoned professionals who could do all these different voices and characters—and here's this 12-year-old girl just running circles around them."
He said they began working together when he was about 11-years-old. He recalled, "Seeing that at a young age and watching her, it was really inspiring. Not having to look at an adult and go, 'Oh, one day I could be like that.' It was going, 'Wow, hey! If I work my butt off and stay focused, I could do that right now.'"
Bell recalled how she "carried" every sketch and every comment "on her shoulders."
"Every little minute details was thrown at this 14-year-old girl," he said. "How many times I saw her—where any other actor with that kind of pressure, especially at that age, would break or crack…seeing her at those moments go the other way. She was a hard, hard worker."

"We Are The Mysticons" Lyrics:
Can you feel it
There's evil in the air
Here to face it
The wicked must beware
Make 'em run
Make 'em hide
Make the city come alive
Never look back
Never look back
When honor calls
We are one for all
And all for one
Remaining brave and strong
Until the battle's done
We are the warriors
Standing up at evil's door
We are the ones who
Fight for the fate of the world
We are the Mysticons
We are the Mysticons
We are the Mysticons

Original Nickelodeon USA Press Release:
Share it: @Nickelodeon #LipSyncBattleShorties
BURBANK–Aug. 1, 2017– Nickelodeon announced today that multi-faceted entertainer Nick Cannon will take the mic as host of Lip Sync Battle Shorties, a spinoff of Spike’s Emmy-nominated global phenomenon, Lip Sync Battle. Joining him to provide commentary on each performance is breakout star and social media sensation JoJo Siwa, who will serve as Cannon’s sidekick. The 10-episode series, which features real-life kids lip-syncing pop songs in celebration of their favorite artists, will premiere in early 2018, with Halloween and holiday specials set to air later this year.

“I'm excited to host the first season of Lip Sync Battle Shorties. It’s always a pleasure to work with my family at Nickelodeon. It's going to be a lot of fun watching the kids lip-sync their favorite songs and perform like their favorites artists,” said host Nick Cannon.
“Nick Cannon grew up on Nickelodeon and into one of the best hosts and comedic actors on TV. Along with his passion for music, he brings with him such an amazing understanding and enthusiasm for kid performers. We feel very lucky to have Nick at the helm of Shorties, we're ready to rock!,” said executive producers Casey Patterson and Jay Peterson.
“With Nick Cannon at the helm, every episode of Lip Sync Battle Shorties will be an over-the-top Nickelodeon event, with real kids in the driver’s seat, battling head-to-head in the ultimate competition show,” said Bronwen O’Keefe, Senior Vice President, Nickelodeon Live Action and Movies.
Nickelodeon premiered an hour-long Lip Sync Battle Shorties special in December 2016, which posted double-and triple digit gains with kids and drew more than two million total viewers (Live+7). Content from the special has garnered over 20 million views on Nickelodeon’s YouTube channel to date.
Created and executive produced by Casey Patterson Entertainment and Matador Content, Lip Sync Battle Shorties lets three talented real-life kid participants personalize their performances, allowing them to make decisions on all creative elements, from song and costume selection, to choreography and staging. Each episode will also feature the Shorties Dance Crew, a 10-person, in-house backup crew who has mastered all styles of dance from breakdancing to ballroom, and conclude with a special celebrity appearance and final performance from all the kids.
Based on the pop culture phenomenon of lip-sync battling, the original Spike Lip Sync Battle series features celebrities going head to head--lip-syncing the song of their choice--battling for the coolest bragging rights on the planet. The series is a ratings and multiplatform superstar for Spike and is the most-watched original series in the network’s history. The award-winning and Emmy-nominated series is executive produced by Casey Patterson, Jay Peterson of Matador Content, John Krasinski, Stephen Merchant and Eight Million Plus Productions. James Sunderland will serve as executive producer and showrunner.
Nick Cannon has entertained audiences in film, on television, on record, onstage and online for nearly 20 years. The talented artist continues to dominate all facets of entertainment as a comedian, host, actor, writer, director, executive producer, deejay, philanthropist and children’s book author.
Breakout-star and social media sensation JoJo Siwa inked an overall talent agreement with Nickelodeon, a global consumer products program and will star in her upcoming TV special, JoJo Siwa: My World, airing on Nickelodeon on Aug. 12, at 8 p.m. (ET/PT).
The two-time Emmy®-nominated Lip Sync Battle on Spike TV is a global multiplatform powerhouse than can be seen in over 140 countries worldwide. The critically-acclaimed series has delivered over one billion cross-platform views since launch, over two million YouTube Channel subscribers, over two million fans on Facebook, and is the most watched original series in Spike history.
