PrankStars was a 2011 American 6-episode reality television series that aired monthly and employed the use of a hidden camera. The series premiered on Disney Channel on July 15, 2011, and was hosted by Pair of Kings and Hannah Montana star, Mitchel Musso. The television program portrayed scenarios in which children and teenagers met their favorite stars in "unpredictable and humorous" settings that had been engineered by their friends and family. The show was Disney Channel's first reality series since the Totally in Tune show. In Canada, Family Channel aired two episodes of PrankStars on September 30, 2011, and a total of four episodes were originally supposed to broadcast before the series was withdrawn. The fourth episode aired a day before Musso's mid-October 2011 arrest on a charge of driving while intoxicated (and subsequent removal from the cast of Pair of Kings), and the remaining two episodes premiered solely in the United Kingdom and Latin America, they premiered in the US in November 2016 on Disney XD.

In the opening episode, Gomez is disguised for the purpose of assisting a girl with a television commercial audition; Debby Ryan recruits a sales girl for a fashion show after falling ill in the clothes store that the girl is employed by; and Musso's real-life best friend does not show up at a restaurant, resulting in the enlistment of fifteen-year-old Luke for a "best friend" interview.

China Anne McClain competes against her biggest fan, fourteen-year-old Sakoiya, for the chance to become a television game show host. However, the pressure is heightened when the game show's producer shows towards China Anne during the challenges. Meanwhile, when Adam Hicks loses his voice prior to an important radio interview, it is up to his unsuspecting "#1" fan, twelve-year-old Zak, to act as Hicks during the live interview.

Zendaya's family's new pirate-themed restaurant is short-staffed in the lead-up to an important restaurant review; Zendaya proceeds to enlist the help of an unsuspecting patron, eleven-year-old Jordan, to substitute as a "swashbuckling" waitress. However, a problem ensues after Jordan inadvertently upsets the food critic. Meanwhile, Cody Simpson invites his biggest fan, fourteen year-old Emily, to join him on stage during a special acoustic concert; however, Emily is unaware that the performance is a live global broadcast.
