Justin Bieber is one of a slew of performers who will be guest starring in Nickelodeon's upcoming hour-long TV movie, School Gyrls. The comedy marks TeenNick chairman Nick Cannon's directorial debut!

Real-life pop group School Gyrls -- Monica Parales, Jacque Nimble and Mandy Rain -- star in the flick as three freshman at Summerdale Academy, an exclusive all-girls boarding school, who come together to battle it out against the reigning Teen Island stunt party champ and resident mean girls, the sophomore cheerleaders. Cannon, Kristinia DeBarge, Reverend Run, Soulja Boy, Angie Stone and Pete Wentz also make cameos in the movie.

School Gyrls premieres on Sunday, February 21, at 7 pm ET/PT on TeenNick.

Most awards shows honor celebs in the TV, movies, and music world, but now TeenNick is presenting a brand new type of award -- one for teens just like you! TeenNick chairman Nick Cannon is hosting tonight's first ever TeenNick Halo Awards, and he's psyched about the honor!

"There are so many regular young people who are agents of change in their communities, and I wanted to recognize their efforts," says Nick. "One person can make a difference, and it's my hope that this special will encourage ongoing activism and inspire a new generation of leaders."

Joining Nick are four celebs -- Hayden Panettiere, Justin Timberlake, Alicia Keys, and NBA player LeBron James -- who aren't receiving awards but giving them to teens who are "Helping And Leading Others" (HALO) by making big changes in the world through philanthropic causes. They'll even be a special message for the honorees -- Brryan Jackson of St. Louis, MO; Megan Kilroy of Santa Monica, CA; Darrius Snow of Atlanta; and Leah Stoltz of Long Island, NY -- from First Lady Michelle Obama!

TeenNick Halo Awards airs Friday, December 11, at 8 p.m. ET on TeenNick. An encore will air at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Nick at Nite.

Hey Guys, its your girl Kristinia DeBarge! Recently I had the amazing opportunity to do a guest performance at Nick Cannon's film "School Gyrls."

Nick was nice enough to sit down with me to talk about the film and the creativity behind it. He told me that he met the three young ladies and was inspired to create a movie around them. Nick's movie is filled with celebrity cameos like DJ D-Wreck, Jackie Long, Rev Run, Diggy, Vanessa Simmons, Angie Stone, Soulja Boy, and my label-mate Justin Beiber. I met all of these people on the set and they were very cool!

He also talked to me about his new gig hosting "America's Got Talent." He said that there's a great mix of talented people and crazy people on the show, and that he's having a blast!

I asked Nick what he enjoys most: Being in front of the camera, or being behind it. He told me that being in front of the camera is a lot easier than being behind it. He said that when he's behind the camera, there is more pressure and responsibility. Still, he says that he likes both roles.

I love Nick Cannon for his progression from being a teen-star to becoming a great executive. He's an inspiration to me, and I'm so happy for him!
