She’s the real deal. Although it’s been a good minute since we’ve heard from Bridgit Mendler, we’ve always thought highly of her. Girl can sing (we really mean it!), girl can act and of course, she’s a great person. Here to help launch the first ever WE (as in WE Day) Store at Eaton Centre in Toronto, the 23-year-old got her break with roles on popular series Good Luck Charlie and Wizards of Waverley Place. A few years back she released a disc on Hollywood Records before focusing on her studies at University of South California. She even plans to get a doctorate degree!
The WE store is the first time Cadillac-Fairview ever has allocated retail space to a charity. The shop offers ME to WE products that empower people to change the world with their everyday consumer choices. Every ME to WE purchase gives a life-changing gift to a child or family in WE Charity’s partner communities, from school supplies to health care to alternative income opportunities.
In addition to meeting the first 100 guests at the WE Store at 4:00 PM, she will be hosting her own Listening Party later in the day for her new material.

Love this Girl! Just having released her Universal Music Canada debut Disc, My Name Is last month, Bridgit Mendler makes her third visit to the City in three months, practically calling Toronto a second home now. The multi-talented Actress/Singer flew-in late last night for an appearance today at MuchMusic‘s inaugural The Big Jingle – think Toronto’s version of New York’s annual Z100 Jingle Ball. The day-long Concert held at Air Canada Centre featured super-hot Talents like Carly Rae Jepsen, Cody Simpson, Austin Mahone and Headliners, The Wanted. It is said that the latter caused quite a ruckus among Fans waiting at their Yorkville Hotel earlier this evening, according to Fan reports.
I spotted a more-Brunette-than-before Mendler having some low-key fun with Friends, playing Board Games with her Friends in the south-end of the City. Still donning her Stage Makeup, but relaxed in a Hoodie, she was super-sweet to stop and do a Snap before quickly tending back to her Friends who were breaking-out in a little Jam Session when I saw them. Mendler soon will be taking a break from Music to begin her studies at the University of Southern California next Spring!

With her current Single Ready or Not garnering 12 million views on YouTube already, Bridgit Mendler‘s Star is rising fast. The 19-year-old Disney Actress/Singer/Songwriter has just released her debut CD, Hello My Name Is via Universal Music Canada and she was just in Toronto earlier this week to promote the Disc, including a Signing at HMV Vaughan Mills. I had the pleasure of meeting Mendler when she came to the City late August. Sweetheart!
In addition to gracing the Cover of VerveGirl this Holiday Season, Mendler has a busy Schedule ahead including Season Three of Good Luck Charlie airing currently. Also, she soon will be headed to University of Southern California to begin Studies.
