Demi Lovato Joining the Cast of THE AVENGERS?

If you don't watch the Disney Channel, then you probably have no idea who Demi Lovato is. She stars in the TV show Sonny With a Chance and the Disney Camp Rock movies, which I've seen bits and pieces of, but have never really watched it, and I think it's safe to say I never will. Of course she's currently in rehab dealing with some emotional problems. 

It's been reported that Lovato has been cast in Joss Whedon's The Avengers, but there is no word on who she will play in the film. The speculation door is wide open, she could play some kind of superhero like Wasp, or there are a good deal of non-mutant roles she could take on as well. 

According to Spinoff Online she will be reporting for Marvel duty on April 1st which is when The Avengers is scheduled to begin production.

I don't really know how good of an actress Lovato is, but most people that star in those Disney Channel shows are pretty talentless. What do you all think?

UPDATE: This story has been debunked. The Playlist is reporting that Lovato's agents have confirmed that she will not be starring in The Avengers.
