NFL's Cam Newton brings Nickelodeon series to White House

WASHINGTON -- Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton has scored big for his new Nickelodeon series that launches Friday.

Newton brought 3-year-old Rosie Smolowitz to the White House to interview Michelle Obama for the cable TV series "All in with Cam Newton." The NFL star helps kids fulfill some of their dreams.

A White House spokeswoman says the first lady highlighted a program called "Every Kid in a Park." The program grants fourth-graders and their families free access to national parks and forests as well as public lands and waters.

Mrs. Obama, Newton and Rosie also talked about the Charlotte, North Carolina, youngster's dream to become president, and about staying healthy and active.

The interview was conducted last week in the Rose Garden. Nickelodeon says the episode will air during the summer.
