Eight-year old Elsie Fisher provided the voice of youngest sister Agnes in the film, DESPICABLE ME. Most people know her by her classic quote, “It’s so fluffy I’m gonna die!” It was a difficult choice for Elsie among all the Perler Beads colors, but in the end she chose dark blue and hot pink for her Perler fish for charity.


Ken Duty stars as the flamboyant European exchange student Günther Hessenheffer on the Disney Channel original series, “Shake it Up!” Growing up with Perler as a kid, Ken enjoyed looking through all the Perler Beads colors and then choosing light blue with a bright green stripe for his charity fish.


Known for her role as Holly on the Disney Channel’s “The Suite Life of Zack and Cody,” Sammi Hanratty also has been seen on TV series’ “Pushing Daisies” and “The Unit.” Sammi chose a Perler Beads fish in dark and light purple, and talked about her experience using Perler Beads many times before, confessing: “I love Perler Beads!”


Brennan stars in the upcoming ABC Family feature “Halloween Dog,” and was seen in 2010 in “The Dog Who Saved Christmas Vacation.” Preston plays the lead in the upcoming kids feature film based on the book “Judy Moody and the Not Bummer Summer,” and also stars on the Showtime hit TV series, “Dexter.” The brothers enjoyed receiving their Perler Beads Bakery Buckets to take home.
