Early Life and Education

Roshon Bernard Fegan was born on October 6, 1991, in Los Angeles, California. His father, Roy Fegan, is an African American actor and producer. His mother is Filipino.

Growing up in Los Angeles, Roshon studied acting at the BK Acting Studio and the USC 32nd Street Performing Arts School. He also went to Tom Bradley Elementary and Hollywood High School. Later, he was home-schooled so he could focus on his acting career.

Becoming an Actor and Dancer

Roshon started acting when he was 12 years old. His first role was a small part in the 2004 movie Spider-Man 2. In 2006, he appeared in the TV series Monk. He also acted in the comedy film Drillbit Taylor and the movie Baby in 2008.

In June 2008, Roshon became well-known for his role as Sander Loyer in the Disney Channel film Camp Rock. This movie was very popular and was the number one cable TV show in 2008. He also sang songs on the Camp Rock soundtrack. In 2010, he played Sander again in Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam.

Roshon also starred in the Disney Channel show Shake It Up! as Ty Blue. Ty Blue was the older brother of Rocky, one of the main characters.

Dancing with the Stars

In 2012, Roshon was a contestant on the 14th season of the ABC show Dancing with the Stars. His dance partner was Chelsie Hightower. They did very well, staying on the show for eight weeks and finishing in the top 6.

Music and Personal Life

Roshon is a talented songwriter, producer, actor, artist, and freestyle dancer. He learned many of his dance moves by watching famous dancers like Michael Jackson. He has played the drums since he was two years old and also plays the piano and guitar.

He has released several songs on iTunes. He also finished his first music project, an EP called I AM RO SHON. He produced this music himself under his own record label, "3inaRo Entertainment." The name 3inaRo (pronounced "three-in-a-row") shows that he is a "triple-threat" entertainer. This means he is good at three things: acting, freestyle dancing, and music. Roshon currently lives in California with most of his family.
