Paul McGill gets sandwiched between good friends Kherington Payne and Nathaniel Flatt at The Vermont restaurant in Los Feliz, Calif.

Sponsored by Crumbs Cupcakes, the now 22-year-old partied with his Fame costars Kristy Flores, Naturi Naughton, Asher Book and Walter Perez as well as HSM3‘s Max Ehrich.

Paul recently sat down with his hometown paper The Post Gazette in Pittsburgh and dished about his character in the upcoming Fame. He shared, “It’s like all high school students really want to be as good or better than their friends, they need to either be with the crowd or be above the crowd, so to be in the back … he struggles with that. They’re his friends but at the same time he wants to do well.”

Fame hits theaters on Friday, September 25th.
