Vote Aly Choice Scene Stealer Female: Easy A and The Roommate!
Hey guys, Aly is nominated at this years TCA’s!! Make sure to vote, vote, vote everyday! Super 8 is also nominated…you know what to do!
The epitome of Young Hollywood, AJ (Amanda) Michalka is undeniably talented in both music and acting. Arriving to her photo shoot to the Kaplan’s personal house in Westlake, CA, Michalka was filled with genuine excitement after admiring the clothing rack that was rested out for her to take a look. Her older sister Aly, who graced the February/March 2011 issue of Zooey, also stopped by to rave over how striking AJ looked by the poolside. In nothing but color and patterns, AJ was everything pleasant, splendor, and more.
While Aly has been filming in Vancouver for her CW television series Hellcats, AJ has been pursuing a movie career. AJ, who has already been in the spotlight since her elementary years, can be seen in the upcoming J.J Abrams’ and Steven Spielberg’s movie Super 8.
“[Director] JJ Abrams is such an incredible visionary,” says AJ, “People are going to be blown away.” The movie, which premiered on June 10th, stars young talents Elle Fanning, Ryan Lee, and Gabriel Basso whom all portray a group of friends in the summer of 1979. The three middle school children begin noticing supernatural excitement in their small town and seek to discover what it all is.
AJ stars as the older sister of one of the lead boys in Super 8. “The chemistry on screen was great between us! Our characters have a lot sibling rivalry going on for sure.” She was also able to flaunt her sexuality in the movie with actor David Gallagher (7th Heaven). “I have a great scene with David Gallagher where my character definitely uses her sexuality as a ploy. Something I would not recommend in real life but it was very fun to play.”
Produced by acclaimed director and producer Spielberg, AJ was thrilled to have met him. “He could not be more down to earth and kind,” she describes. “The combination of he and JJ is brilliant. The vibe on set was very easy going. JJ uses a lot of the same crew on all of his projects so there are no attitudes involved. It is all about the work.”

Hey guys, Albert here! I finally found the time to post this! This is apart of The Lovely Bones Blu-Ray special features. AJ does all her own stunts in the movie! Enjoy!
J.J. Abrams new super mysterious film “Super 8″ comes out today and GlobalGrind got a chance to chat it up with one of it’s stars Amanda Michalka. The movie is about a group of friends who witness a catastrophic train crash while making a movie on super 8 film and soon suspect that it was not an accident. After that, there are unusual disappearances and inexplicable events that start to take place in the town. Everyone begins to suspect that what is happening is much more then they think. This movie sounds pretty suspenseful and we got the low down straight from Amanda herself. Check it out!
So when you work with someone like J.J. Abrams and Spielberg, you learn something. What’s one thing you learned from watching them do their thing?
You know what, the cool thing about them is that it never gets old. I mean, they’ve been doing this for so long and still have this driving passion and love for what they do. And that to me is the most encouraging thing and that’s how I feel about my career. So I watch JJ and how he works with these kids and adults. He’s just so good with everyone and lets actors kind of do their own thing and take the reigns themselves and go with their instincts. That to me is really cool, because he lets you improve and have fun but he’s also an amazing director.
Back in the day, people shot with super 8, but we think today’s super 8 is the iPhone. What’s the last thing you shot on your phone?
Last thing I shot on my phone, I actually bought the Super 8 app. a couple of weeks ago and I shot a mini dog film. And it literally stars my four dogs, Bandit, Roddy, Money Penny and Willow and it is a joke. I tried to do this really cool deep voice over voice and it didn’t work at all.
Can we hear a little bit of that?
It was like …’One dog 1969, one dog born in 1973, will they take over the world??’ It’s like so bad but I tried, I tried really hard. But I sent it to JJ, I was like, JJ you have to check out this movie I did, I think it might beat “Super 8.” He was laughing, it was really funny.
We’re looking forward to the release of that. What’s it called again, the dog movie?
The dog movie, I haven’t really worked on a title yet. It’s called ‘War of 4 Dogs,’ that’s what I’m calling it currently but it’s still pending.

Hey Guys,
Sorry it’s been so long since we’ve blogged. Don’t worry we haven’t forgotten about you!! As you may already know, Hellcats has been cancelled, but we truly appreciate the support you gave us. We are very proud of the first season and it was an incredible experience! We have made lifelong friends, which is always a good thing! J We are fully focused on the next album. You all have been so patient and understanding. J We know alot of you have been with us from the beginning and it seems like just yesterday when we released Into The Rush. The music we have been making lately is such a progression from what we have done in the past, but without leaving behind who we are.
The weather has been beautiful here in California and we’ve been seeing so many dear friends lately. AJ is headed to London in June and will also be traveling through St. Tropez and Cannes. She can’t wait to meet our French fans. Of course, I’m a lil jealous since I won’t be joining her, but she is taking a special trip with a friend.
Also don’t forget to mark your calendars for Super 8 coming to theaters June 10th!!! We just got the new Ipad 2 and have been playing with the cool Super 8 app. We are so hooked
Anyway, we will try and be more consistent with writing you! Send in questions that we can answer on our next blog and follow us on Twitter @78violet. We love you! Xo Aly and AJ
It’s quite sad to see AJ talking about Hellcats and being excited to be part of the cast. At least we still know a record is on its way!
