Huge thanks to the heads up by Alyfan from the forums, we now know that Popstar Online has finally put up their QUestion & Answer with Alyson and Mike on their Website! It's a really great interview with several rare photos, which you can check out Here or click the banner below. I've added the photos below.
Also, there's a new entry over at Alyson's Official Blog in which she has announced her official Fan screename. I hope she won't get overloaded by messages though.
Looks like it was a no show for Alyson at the Kids Choice Awards 2007 cos' I couldn't seem to find any single photo to indicate that she managed to get the tickets. Oh well.
By the way.
HAPPY FIRST APRIL 2007!!!!
I hope you guys didn't get pranked too much today. I wanted to pull an April fools joke initially, but, nah. Anyways, I'll post soon with another update. Probably a gallery update. Enjoy the first of April! By the way, I made some changes to the current layout if you haven't noticed. I replaced the black T-Shirt with that animated Alyson, using one of my favorite pictures from her recent photoshoot. Hope you guys like it. If not, well, what can I do right?
I'm not sure if it is really confirmed, but Alyson mentioned that she might be appearing at the Kids Choice Awards 2007. The event will be happening this Saturday, which is tomorrow (American time), so be on the lookout for her on the red carpets. Let's hope she manages to get those tickets. :)
Alyson has also updated a new blog entry, with several shout outs to her Alice buds. By the way, please also do check out Parker Mckenna Posey's Official bLOG, once of Alyson's cast mate in Alice.
Alyson is creating a new Contest over at her blog which I'm sure all of you would not miss the chance to join. I don't think i will join though, cos' i'm not good at making videos. Best of luck to all those who are joining and hope some visitor of this site will win it!
She's also finally posted the long awaited Michael Higgins Photoshoot and I'm sure you would agree that it was totally worth the wait!! The clothes and poses are downright gorgeous and I especially love the outfit that she wore with that cap on her head and the side ponytail. She looks really good there. :) I've already uploaded the photos into the gallery, and for those who want Untagged photos, you can always go on over to her official site to get them.
I'm sure some of you would like to see a new layout on this site using those new photoshoot photos, but unfortunately, I don't really have the time to make a proper layout. Plus, I'm out of ideas for a new layout, so, if any of you feel that you would like to contribute a layout to this site, feel free to do so. :) If I like it, I will consider coding that layout and putting it up! Email me at alysonraestoner(@)gmail.com. By the way, let's now wait for Alyson to revamp her site with these new photoshoots! I'm sure the new site will be awesome. :)
I've also added several more photos from the Yana K. Fall Collection appearance, though I'm truly sorry cos' they're mostly tagged, since I don't have much image accounts. You can always view more at the other fansites though.:) Check them out below. Also, I managed to find the Real model wearing Alyson's dress shown on the runway. Who do you think wears it better? Alyson or the model? Though this poll is a bit biased, cos' we know who we will vote for. *winks*
You can also view the Yana K. Fall Collection runway show HERE though I'm not sure if Alyson appears in the video, cos' i can't really view the video as my aol connections is not working. If you do watch it and see Alyson, do let me know. Thanks!
As promised, Alyson appeared at the Yana K Back-to-basics Fall COllection showcase, and you can see an image of her below. She looks really good and she looks like she's growing really fast! Check it out below. I'll add more as I find them.
Just like the title proclaims, I've completely revamped the Video Vault with a brand new layout (well not exactly, just a rehashed from my Era style designs) and i've rearranged every video so that it's easily browsed. There's currently more than 60 video clips of Alyson in there, and I'm going to be making download links for you to easily watch it from your computer. You can either watch the videos directly from Youtube, or download them from Megaupload. It will take a while for me to encode and upload all the videos to Megaupload, but the videos are currently viewable through Youtube. I'm also uploading full episodes of the TV shows that Alyson appears in which you can soon view them at Veoh.com.
Alyson also posted a really long blog entry about some tips to looking good. She also mentions that she'll be attending her first ever fashion show this weekend in which she would get the chance to model the clothes too! Awesome! Let's hope there's some press photos so that we'll be able to view her modelling those clothes.
More info about the weekend fashion show:
The California Market Center will also host various fashion shows
throughout the LA Fashion Market. On March 24,
Yana K will present "Back-to-Basics" contemporary apparel collection.
Cocktails will be served for the Yana K show at 6:00 p.m., with the runway
show starting at 6:30 p.m.
Just a long gallery update today. I've finally managed to upload all the Jammx related pictures from my hard drive into the new gallery. The only categories left to upload are for the Events and Appearances, Movies and Premieres albums. Hopefully, i'll be able to complete them by the end of April or something. :)
I'm sorry for not updating in the past couple of days. I guess, I have kinda lost interest in the site for now as my school work is really piling up, especially this time when the deadlines are closing in. Anyways, I'm sure you were'nt deprived of any Alyson news or anything, cos' Alyson updated her official blog with tons of interesting news.Just a brief summary of the things that are happening for her in the upcoming months.
New LT Hiphop Video
Working on a Christmas single for Universal Records! (*wow..she's becoming a recording artiste now* Awesome news.)
Designing a Shoeline for Bloch Dancewear! (Seriously awesome news. Her own shoeline? Even i'm jealous. Lolz.)
Pitching her show to two major networks, i think, it's Disney and Nickelodeon. Who knows. :)
Talent Guest judge on a talk show for their dance competition. Hmm..let's guess what talk show it is. Oprah? Hehe...Ryan Seacrest show? Share your guesses people!
Wow. SHe definitely is busy these few months with a lot of interesting things lined up. I just have one thing i'd love to see soon, her new photoshoot pictures. First look at her new photoshoot pictures. Check out her gorgeous photoshoot below. I hope she revamps her site with this new photoshoot. It would definitely be refreshing. :)
Anyways, i just have one question to ask you guys, at least, those who read this post. :) What exactly do you look for when you visit this site? News? Updates? Photos? Tagboard replies? Do enlighten me. :)
[EDIT]: Thanks to Sarah and Jets, you can now view the feature interview with Alyson that she mentioned on her official blog yesterday. Check it out Here! It comes along with a small new photoshoot picture of Alyson. It's a really great read, so be sure to check it out!
If you check out the Disney's Really short Report official website, they have the episode for MSSS Farewell Party up on their site. Be sure to check it out if you haven't done so. The site loads extremely slowly though, cos' its flash heavy.
The Young Artist Awards was held on March 10th, though Alyson already mentioned that she was not going due to several reasons, so, no pictures were expected. Unfortunately, she already warned that she might not win, and right she was. That's too bad i guess, cos' she really deserves the awards. Maybe in the future, she'll get an award in some other award shows, besides only in YAA.
Anyways, there's a really sweet report about the Farewell of Mike's Super Short Show which talks about the journey that MSSS has gone through, along with short snippets of interview with Alyson and Mike. I already posted the photos into the gallery, and I couldn't post the link back then cos' it was removed shortly afterwards, but its back up now. Check it out below.
The "brother and sister" team of Mike and Sally are bidding farewell to Disney Channel. After nearly 5 years on the air, Disney Channel's "Mike's Super Short Show" is passing on the baton to the "Really Short Report." Mike, played by actor Mike Johnson, and Sally, played by actress Alyson Stoner, have gone from kids to teenagers before their fans' eyes. The show, which "broadcasts" from Mike's bedroom, is a fictional program that has Mike and Sally talk about upcoming Disney DVD releases. It airs between Disney Channel's regular programming, even though the channel technically doesn't run commercials. In celebration of the show's long run, a wrap party was held on the Disney Studios lot January 28, 2007.
Mike and Alyson were visibly moved. Stoner remarked, "This is the last 'Mike's Super Short Show' ever." No more sign offs that say, "Now you know, it's Mike's Super Short Show!"
Also, Alyson answered some great questions over at Lucy's site. Check it out Here. IF you have any news or photos of Alyson, we would really appreciate it if you could share them with us. Drop me an email at alysonraestoner(@)gmail.com.
Yup, you must have noticed that its all blue now. Changed from a girly color to a boyish color. Just kidding. I guess i was tired of looking at all the pink and was also too lazy to completely revamp the site, so, i just changed the color, which was originally suggested by Sarah. *grins* Enjoy this for now, cos' if the new photoshoot photos that is soon to be released are suitable and easy to manipulate, i'll probably consider creating a whole new layout.
Huge thanks to Mandy for the awesome finds of video clips from Alyson's Instructional Dvd! There's three of them which you can view from the links below. I've added several caps from the vids below.
You can now watch Dance Revolutions Episodes online for FREE! Yes, i've managed to stumble upon this great feature on AOL in which you can now get to watch all the Dance Revolutions episodes online. They've got all the full episodes up on the site, and you don't need to download or register for anything.
Oh, and for those who are not aware, there's a new blog entry by Alyson over at her official site. She really engaging her fans to email her more often nowadays, which is really sweet of her despite her busy schedule. Anyways, You also have to be patient about those photoshoot photos, cos' they've got trouble uploading those photos apparently.
I've added several more pages to the Alyson Section such as the following which you can check out below. I've also changed the Picture of the Moment to reflect the new month of March. Check out some of the other updates around the site below.
All About Alyson | Read what others said about Alyson, complete with her autobiography.
Random Polls section | I've added a new poll on the right side of the screen and moved the old poll to the Random polls section.
There's also an article from a school newsletter in which Alyson was mentioned about her role in "Alice". Check out the snippet from the article below.
"Alyson Stoner, I was very impressed by her. She is so tiny and and she is so witty. Whenever the cameras are on or off, she has this quality about her...."
I'm sure all of us are really anticipating the arrival of Alyson's new photoshoot. I'm really eager to see how she looks like cos' based on what she wrote on her blog, they "girlied" her up for the photoshoot. That's really interesting to me. :)
Huge Thanks to Zhar, you can catch the episode of DIsney's Really Short Report for the wrap up party of Mike's super short show here for those who have yet to watch it. I'll add the caps soon.
I'm sure all of you are anticipating the arrival of the new photoshoot photos. I'm sure it will be worth the wait once Alyson manages upload those photos properly.
Gallery update today. First up, i've added a new candid shot of Alyson and Lauren into the gallery, thanks to Britt for sharing them on the tagboard. :) I've also added several photos of Alice behind the scenes courtesy of ParkerMckennaPosey.com which was recently launched. I've finally uploaded all the photos from the Music Video Section of the gallery, which includes caps and candids from Gossip Folks, Just Lose it, I'm Really Hot, No tengo Di Nero, and Work It. Now, i'm left with just the Premieres Section, Events and Appearances Section, Jammx Section and the Movies section to upload photos in. Hopefully, i'll be able to settle with the gallery by the end of March.
Sorry for not updating a few days ago, been tight with school. Anyways, since the LTHIPHOP's youtube account finally went past 200 subscribers, they've uploaded 2 EXCLUSIVE VIDEOS on their account! One is showing Alyson and Lindsay dancing as a duo while the other shows them on a tour of the Disney studios where they're gonna watch a screening of Alice. The videos are truly a treat so better check them out below!Oh, and for those who haven't checked it out yet, Alyson has a new blog entry a couple of days back.
I'll be adding the caps soon, so check back later!

[EDIT]: I've added the caps from the two videos and also the Summerlove music video and also added the videos to the Video Vault, along with the music video from The Land before time thanks to Jets! I've also added Alyson's past blog entries to the Archive.
Yay! *bouncing up and down* Thanks to all the visitors for continually visiting Refreshing Alyson after all these time. Even though this might not seem like such a big deal to other large sites, but it's really great to see the counter reach past 100,000 hits. What started off being a temporary obscure fansite stuck in one corner of the web just to wait for other huge fansites to open, Refreshing Alyson has grown to what it is now, with a stable and great host and to top off, its own domain. And it's all thanks to the visitors who gave me the motivation to continue updating the site and bringing more Alyson content to this site.
I initially wanted to hold a contest in which the 100,000th Visitor who manages to screenshot the counter when it reaches 100,000 will receive a gift from me, through mail. However, that didn't turn out cos' by the time i went back to this site, the counter has already went past 100 000!

I know you guys must have seen those latest blog entries and LTHipHop videos already. From now onwards, i will not be making any updates if there's a new entry by Alyson on her Official Site/Blog cos' she's already updating it regularly, so, there's no point making an update about that here since you can go there straight away. So, be sure to regularly visit her site for all the latest happenings in her daily life. I will, however, continue archiving those entries under the Blog Entries Archive for future perusal.
Anyways, i've got several stuff to share. First up, you can check out this cute old MSSS episode for the Beauty and the Beast dvd where you can see Alyson wearing this cute yellow evening gown.

Yesterday, i posted several new photos of Alyson from the Millennium Dance Complex official site in the forum. I've already uploaded the pictures in the gallery which you can check out below. If you have any photos of Alyson or taken with Alyson that you'd like to share with the site, please do send them to me at alysonraestoner[@]gmail.com. I would totally appreciate it and you'll receive full credits for it.
I'm sorry for posting daily, *sheepsish*, but since Alyson news and stuff kept rolling in, i have no choice but to keep updating. Hope you guys don't mind. *grins* First up, Bill(51kmg365) from our forum was really sweet to create a Get Well Soon Card especially made for Alyson to help cheer her up since she is down with strep throat. He made it on Refreshing Alyson's behalf. Check out the ecard that he made below. Thanks Bill!
Anyways, i have more Alice on set photos to share, courtesy of one kind member from the Refreshing Forums. Huge thanks to Julia S. for sharing with us her photos with Alyson and Lucas grabeel on the set of Alice. Julia and her friends spent a couple of days on the set being extras in the movie, and they managed to snap some photos which you can check out below!
In addition, i have added caps from the video clip of Alyson and Lucas on the set of Alice saying "Hi" to one of their cast member's children into the new gallery. I have a lot more videos and photos to share, but i will take things slowly and post them one at a time. For now, enjoy the following!
By the way, since Alyson is doing great updating her blog, from now onwards, i will just link to her blog for future entries instead of posting the contents here. I will, however, continue adding her entries to the Blog Entries Archive for future references.
Have you guys seen the awesome videos that Kelsey took from the Talent Show that Alyson and Lindsay performed yesterday?? Well, if you haven't what are you waiting for? Lolz. Check out the awesome performance by Alyson and Lindsay along with after the show clips with the three of them. In one of the video clip, you can watch Alyson talk about the show, and she looks really tired and sick, though it didn't stop her from doing an excellent job at the talent show. They won first place in fact! Congrats to the Dance Mistresses! There are four videos that contains Alyson. If you want more, check out LThipHop's official youtube account above.
Read the latest blog entries over at LT HipHop's blog and Alyson's blog. I've made caps from the videos which you can see below.
[edit]: Alyson has a new entry in her blog and she made a polite request to all her fans. Here's what she requested:
p.s. if u truly are a fan and u've made any videos on youtube.com..please delete them if they contain any personal pictures...if they are not professionally taken, please delete them..i'd appreciate it..let's see who's a true fan :D...also, if you've posted any myspace pictures on fansites, delete them immediately, thank u!
It seems that she does mind having her myspace photos up on fansites and fanvideos, so, let's oblige to her request and help remove all those videos that contains her personal photos. I've also removed all the myspace photos from the backup and new gallery. In the future, i would not be posting up any of her myspace photos (if any) on this site and in the gallery in respect of her privacy. Thanks Alyson for the heads up.
I'm not sure if you guys have seen these, but i've got some sneek peaks from the 2nd JammxKids DVd which has yet to be released. These are NOT from the first JammxKids Dvd though, if that is what you were wondering. I have yet to make screencaps from the first DVD, but once everything is settled with the new gallery, i will start capping videos and photos from the first DVD. Anyways, you can check out an excerpt from the 2nd Jammx Dvd along with a promotional video of Randy Jackson who talks about the 2nd Jammx Dvd. You can hear Alyson singing the introduction to that video too! She's the central character in the 2nd Dvd. Let's hope they will finally release the dvds to the public. I've added both these videos to the video vault.
You can view the caps from the videos below. I've also updated several more albums in the gallery which you can check it out here.
If you noticed, i've got several new additions around the site. First up, there are new buttons under the Announcement heading, in which you can easily access Alyson's as well as LThiphop's blog. Also, don't forget to subscribe to LTHipHop's youtube account if you haven't done so. Let's help them achieve their goals of having 200 subscribers! Also, i've added a poll on the right side of the page, directly under the Guestmap. Just wanted to know how many of you are planning to enter Alyson's contest.Thanks for visiting and hope you enjoy the treats above!
[EDIT]: Alyson updated her blog with a new entry. And she's currently having a bug, so, let's pray for her to get well soon! :) Also, Kelsey has also posted up another entry over at the LTHipHop Blog. Be sure to check it out!
