Hayley Orrantia to Star in Jimmie Allen Music Video ‘Be Alright’ – “The Goldbergs’” Hayley Orrantia is set to star in Jimmie Allen’s upcoming music video “Be Alright.” The video is set in New York City in the 1960s with Orrantia playing a down-on-her-luck character called Eve. Things start looking up when she encounters an “old friend with a new mantra” played by Allen. The video was shot on the Warner Bros. lot last month and is directed by Allen and Chris Beyrooty. It was choreographed by “Dancing with the Stars” choreographer Tessandra Chavez. Dakota Diel (“Army of the Dead”) was on board as director of photography. “Be Alright” is featured on Allen’s third studio album, “Tulip Drive,” which was released this June on Stoney Creek Records/BBR Music Group. – Read more at Variety

Correction: Variety initially reported that Jimmie Allen was “set to make his feature film debut with upcoming musical “Be Alright” with Haley Orrantia as his co-star. Not quite.

American Idol’ Winner Chayce Beckham on His Growing Country Music Career: ‘I’m Just a Little Fish in a Big Pond Working My Way Up’ – “I’m trying to push my music as much as I can without setting super high unrealistic expectations,” he says. “But I realize where I want to go, and I take baby steps to get there. If this is a song that ends up on the radio, if the fans really like it, then so be it. But I guess that you let the music speak for itself in that case and, hopefully, I can release music, if not this song, then other songs that will connect with a large amount of people. My goal as an artist is just to try to get a message across to as many people as I can.” During our chat, Chayce also talked about the surprises that have come with his new career, like the business side of things and collaborating on writing songs, touring with Jimmie Allen and Luke Combs, keeping in touch with his friends from Idol, especially judge Luke Bryan, and more. – Read more at Parade
