There's more white teeth and
bouncy choreography on hand at 6:30 p.m.
Saturday on the Disney Channel
(Cox Cable Channel 32, Heartland Cable Channel
42) with "Jessica
Simpson & Jason Raize in
Concert,'' each performing
numbers from their debut albums. The latest in
a series of Disney
Channel concert specials, this one will
provide a little more bang for
the buck than the ABC broadcast by alternating
performance footage with
backstage moments designed to give fans a feel
for the singers' private
lives and personalities. As an added bonus,
Nick Lachey of the group 98
Degrees will join Simpson onstage to recreate
the duet "Where You Are''
which they recorded for Simpson's album.
