Kel Mitchell of Nickelodeon's comedy show Kenan & Kel has been keeping himself extra busy since last appearing on the small screen on UPN's 'Half & Half.' He's starring in a new movie called 'Chicago Polanski Jones' (with Cedric the Entertainer, Tommy Davidson, Affion Crockett and Tia Mowry's husband, Cory Hardrict); a new solo album to be released later this year AND he's also developing a new show for Nickelodeon called, 'Orange Soda Boy' (remember his 'Orange Soda' song: 'who loves orange soda/Kel loves orange soda/is it true/mmmhmm/I do I do I do ho'). In an interview with HM magazine, the married father of two discussed his new projects. Read the excerpts below.
KEL ON HIS NEW MOVIE: I love kung fu movies, and I also love dance movies. People who know me know I love to dance. I decided that I wanted to create a film where I could use both elements, so I decided to make a film about a guy who could only fight when music is playing, and that's how I came up with 'Chicago Pulanski Jones.' I'm the writer, producer, I play the lead role, and I even play the villain in the film. I took it over to Bird and a Bear Productions, and when Ced said he wanted to direct it, I got so excited. I look up to Ced--we worked on Steve Harvey's show together--so it's like a dream come true. I also have another movie with Cedric called 'The Jump Off', which is another dance movie. It's crazy. I guess we just love dancing. Ced's got skills too!

KEL ON 'ORANGE SODA BOY': I always liked orange soda--so I was like, let me have a living, breathing orange soda that kicks it with all these other sodas...and they live in Carbo Heights. And on Youtube, I have my Orange Soda Boy dance. It's blowing up, kids are doing it everywhere.
KEL ON HIS DEBUT ALBUM: I write R&B and hip-hop. I am going to drop an album--like Eddie Murphy did. It's going to have comedy in it and a lot of features, so watch out for that. Yall look out, Kel (R. Kelly) and Dru Hill. It's gonna be crazy!
