Miley Cyrus Hannah Montana

Disney Postpones ‘Hannah Montana’ Diabetes Episode

noreply@blogger.com (Shujel) — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 16:42:00 +0000

The Disney Channel usually bends over backward when it comes to anything related to its pride and joy, teen idol Miley Cyrus. E! News confirmed Saturday, however, that the season premiere of the network’s flagship sitcom, “Hannah Montana,” had been indefinitely postponed over concerns it might not treat diabetes in a serious enough light.

“No Sugar, Sugar,” an episode originally scheduled to air Nov. 2, was to introduce Cyrus co-star Mitchel Musso’s character, Oliver, as a diabetic. Though a Disney spokesperson told E! News advice from medical experts had been incorporated into the script, a strong response from concerned parents shown a preview of the finished product gave the company cold feet.

“Notwithstanding the measures we took, and based on the episode’s preview and early feedback from parents, we removed the episode from Sunday’s schedule and are now reevaluating it,” the rep said.

An installment of the show originally scheduled to air later in the season preempted the controversial piece. It was not immediately clear if Disney would reshoot all or part of “No Sugar, Sugar” or scrap it altogether.

Diabetes is a metabolic disorder causing abnormally high levels of blood sugar in those with the disease. As a result, diabetics must limit their intake of foods high in sugar and, in some cases, regularly inject themselves with hormone insulin.

Hannah Montana actress Miley Cyrus used to clean toilets before becoming famous. Cyrus, who made 18.2 million dollars last year, revealed on the Tyra Banks Show that she was eleven when she worked as a cleaner at a place called 'Sparkles' and cleaned houses.

"I had one normal job and I actually liked it," US magazine quoted Miley, as saying. "I worked at this place called Sparkles Cleaning Service and I cleaned houses. I was, like, 11 ... I can scrub a toilet," she added.

Were Miley Cyrus' new shower pics faked?

noreply@blogger.com (Shujel) — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 17:51:00 +0000

New raunchy pictures of Miley Cyrus posing in a shower have been leaked onto the internet, but there are claims that they could have been faked.

The photos show the 15-year-old star of hit US TV show Hannah Montana allegedly in the shower, wearing a long white see-through T-shirt.

In another image, Miley poses provocatively with her T-shirt tied tightly under her breasts, exposing her stomach as she pouts at the camera.

The new photographs have been posted on an internet forum, with the user claiming he was sent them by Nick Jonas, of US band The Jonas Brothers, who briefly dated Miley last year.

The internet user is also claiming he has more scandalous pictures of the multi-talented star, which he is now attempting to sell.

Some websites believed the photos were faked.

Miley, the daughter of country singer Billy Ray Cyrus, is no stranger to controversy.

Earlier this year, a revealing picture of her taken by famed photographer Annie Leibovitz for the cover of Vanity Fair magazine showed the young star posing with just a blanket.

Following the controversial image, Miley released a statement saying: "I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be 'artistic' and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed.

"I never intended for any of this to happen and I apologise to my fans who I care so deeply about."

Less than a month later, new pictures of the actress were leaked onto the internet, showing her posing in a variety of risque photographs wearing lacy red underwear, after reportedly being taken from her MySpace account.

noreply@blogger.com (Shujel) — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 01:00:00 +0000

Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus made headlines at America’’s Freedom Festival in Provo, Utah, on the Fourth of July, where she dedicated a song to U.S. troops all over the world.

The festival, which is known as “one of the largest patriotic celebrations in America,” had its sixth annual event telecasted live to the nation’’s troops around the globe.

The concert, dubbed the “Stadium of Fire,” was emceed by conservative political TV and radio commentator Glenn Beck, and saw 15-year-old Cyrus, clad in a conservative all-white outfit of jeans and a tank top, performing in front of nearly 60,000 fans, and singing her biggest hits and debuting songs off her new album.

The reigning teen queen dedicated “Simple Song” to American troops.

“I want to take a minute to dedicate this song to all of our troops we got out there,” E!online quoted her as telling the crowd.

“I know God has an ultimate plan, so I”m stoked,” she said.

Before the show started, Cyrus had visited with kids from a local cancer hospital and signed autographs.

After the concert was over, Cyrus took in a fireworks show despite her fears, which she revealed in a conference call with reporters earlier in the week to promote the concert.

“I actually am really, really scared of fireworks so I would always sit in the car. Fireworks scare me so badly. Like, on my concert tour, any time pyro goes off, I’m like crossing my fingers. I really don’t like it,” she added.

Following the concert, Cyrus flew back to Tennessee, where she is still filming the Hannah Montana movie, which is scheduled to wrap later this month.

Miley Cyrus says she is “too much” for guys to handle

noreply@blogger.com (Shujel) — Mon, 23 Jun 2008 16:59:00 +0000

Now this is the most stupid thing I have heard in a while Miley is 15 years old and already thinks that she is “too much” for guys to handle. She should not be thinking that way yet she is still a child. Miley aka Hannah Montana has also refused to calm her crazy ways for any potential boyfriends. Maybe her dad should step in and get her under control before it’s too late. You can see Miley becoming the next Britney before to long.

Over the past few months Miley has caused controversy after posing topless for US magazine Vanity Fair, she said that “I’m too much to handle right now. I can’t be quiet and cute for boys - I have to be a bit crazy. It was so embarrassing, when I first moved to Los Angeles; I had a crush on Jesse McCartney. In fact, the first song I ever wrote was about Jesse. He was on my show and I told him and he was like, ‘That’s so cute!’ ”

Miley has said that she no longer has a crush on any other celebrities because “they’re all getting old” but she does have a soft spot for one star. She said that “Orlando Bloom is gorgeous but he’s a bit of a player.”

McCartney Defends Miley Cyrus Vanity Fair Pics

noreply@blogger.com (Shujel) — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 19:32:00 +0000

Singer songwriter Jesse McCartney has defended Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus's controversial Vanity Fair shoot - insisting the pictures were not "offensive".

The 21 year old stuck up for the 15 year old actress following the backlash the Disney Channel star encountered after posing for photos, which have been deemed too sexy for a teenager.

Cyrus' clean cut image was damaged by the release of images of her wrapped in just a satin bedsheet in June's edition of the U.S. magazine.

And McCartney can't understand why the media reacted so strongly.

He says, "I think that people are nuts. I didn't find any of the photos offensive in Vanity Fair. I thought they were artistic if anything.

"It sucks man. Everything about Miley was so sensationalised. I really feel for her you know."

Miley Cyrus Is Big Hit With Prison Inmates

noreply@blogger.com (Shujel) — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 18:49:00 +0000

Teen and tween sensation Miley Cyrus is becoming a big hit with the older generation, especially with prison inmates. Although the Hannah Montana star is not happy with the situation, the male prisoners are posting pictures of her Vanity Fair spread on their walls.

But the inmates are interested in her other provocative photos too, according to the National Ledger. Before the Vanity Fair magazine controversy, other pictures of the 15 year old star hit the Internet. One of these photos showed the young Cyurs lying across the lap of her then boyfriend. Another photo showed her pulling her top down to expose her green bra.

The Vanity Fair photos gave Cyrus her initial exposure, but other pictures have become popular too. She has been featured in lesbian kissing photos and has also been snapped snuggling up with several different boys, according to the Ledger report.

Since the Vanity Fair magazine release, other images showed up on the Internet. She is holding the camera up herself in these pictures. In two pictures she is seen pulling up her top with her teeth. Some question whether she is wearing panties in one of those pictures.

Star Magazine is reporting that she has a whole slew of incarcerated fans. To her chagrin, they have been sending her thousands of love letters. The inmates say they have taped her pictures to their cell walls.

One source said that the letters are not welcome. "It's really creeping Miley out," according to the source. "Both her parents always prayed for her success but never imagined that it would come to this."

Billy Ray Cyrus has confirmed he wasn’t on the set when the controversial Vanity Fair pictures were taken of his 15 year old daughter Miley Cyrus.

He told yesterday’s Today show: “I wasn’t there at the time [but Miley’s] publicist was there, and everyone seemed in control.

“I didn’t know they [were] gonna strip her down and wrap her with a blanket.

“So I was surprised when I saw it, you know, but … stuff happens. That’s life. Things happen and sometimes things get a little out of control and you just gotta deal with life. It’s peaks and valleys and ups and downs.”

He added that he still considers Annie Leibovitz a “good person and a great photographer” but wishes he had stayed around the chaperone the entire shoot.

Miley Cyrus Enlists Celeb Pals for Latest YouTube Video

noreply@blogger.com (Shujel) — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 17:24:00 +0000

Miley Cyrus has enlisted her musically inclined celeb pals for her latest YouTube video featuring her dance posse, the M&M Cru, and her BFF Mandy Jiroux. The video is the latest response to the ACDC dance crew's April 10 call for the "biggest online dance battle in YouTube history." The ACDC group is led by Step Up 2 director Jon Chu and star Adam Sevani.

The video's celeb cameos include You Don't Mess with The Zohan's Emmanuelle Chriqui, former NSYNC member Joey Fatone, illusionist David Blaine and Ryan Seacrest.

Cyrus and Jiroux kick off the video with a ride in a helicopter emblazoned with the M&M Cru logo. The 100-member crew then takes over L.A. hotspot Boulevard3, where they perform a series of street dance routines. Cyrus also shows off her impressive cheerleading skills with an aerial twist about 14 feet in the air.

"The next morning she sent me a message showing me a picture of her knees because she had bruises from learning the breaking routine we did," says choreographer Teresa Espinosa. "There were bruises all up and down her leg ... [but] she was so excited. She was killing it!"

Given her busy schedule, Miley's only free day to shoot the 10-minute video, directed by Cole Walliser, was on May 11, which meant one star had to drop out of the fun. "Nicole Richie wanted to be a part of it and we wanted her baby [Harlow] to be a part of it but it was Mother's Day!" says Espinosa.

Hannah Montana Boss: 'Leave Miley Cyrus Alone'

noreply@blogger.com (Shujel) — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 15:49:00 +0000

The creator of hit TV show Hannah Montana has called on the press to leave Miley Cyrus alone - insisting the media is unfairly scrutinising her life.

Cyrus, 15, shot to international fame on the Disney Channel programme, but has been hit by a series of scandals throughout this year (08).

Most recently, the teen was accused of inappropriately flaunting her body in a controversial Vanity Fair photoshoot.

But Michael Poryes, co-creator and executive producer of the series, insists the media should stop giving Cyrus a hard time, as she is just going through the usual stresses of being a teenager.

He says, "To say the tabloids are paying attention to her is a very kind way of saying it. It becomes like Miley Cyrus bites her finger nails is news at 11.

"They don't give her a break for being able to go through the aches and pains of being an adolescent. Everyone has the right to go through being an adolescent. They blow everything out of proportion and a little misstep becomes the biggest tragedy that ever struck mankind."

And Poryes reveals that everyone involved with the TV show is going out of their way to make Cyrus feel better about herself.

He adds, "The challenge of that is to do our best to make Miley feel - at least in this circle of people - that it's fine to make mistakes, you're not going to be judged or scrutinised on set."

Miley Cyrus falls for 'much older guy'

noreply@blogger.com (Shujel) — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 17:51:00 +0000

The scandal of her saucy photo shoot has barely died down but Miley Cyrus is back in the news again for all the wrong reasons – a reported relationship with an much older guy.

Hollywood gossip site perezhilton.com reports that the 15-year-old ‘Hannah Montana’ star is seeing a back-up dancer named Marshall, who at 22 is seven years older to her. Miley came under flak for posing in nothing but a sheet for celebrated celeb photographer Anne Lebovitz. Shortly after that picture hit the stands in Vanity Fair magazine, it caused a mini uproar among her young fans.

The last month, she became the target of an internet game titled Miley's Naughty Pics, which gave players the chance to take compromising pictures. Followed by that was the offer from Playboy boss Hugh Hefner for Miley to pose in the buff in his famous men’s mag.

Freak Accident on the Hannah Montana Movie Set

noreply@blogger.com (Shujel) — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 19:23:00 +0000

Extras and crew had a bit of a scare Tuesday on the Tennessee set of “Hannah Montana: The Movie” when a piece of production equipment was blown onto a ferris wheel full of extras.

The accident produced no serious injuries, Disney said in a statement. The company said “a minor accident” which occurred during a break in filming caused only “minor injuries” and that the extras hurt had received immediate medical attention. None of the cast was on the set according to Disney.

TMZ.com, which first reported the incident, said star Miley Cyrus had just finished filming a scene next to the ferris wheel when the naughty gust of wind caused the damage.

One of the extras, Brenda Blackford, told Nashville station WKRN-TV that “when the wind caught it, all the cables were loose.”

The loose cables reportedly struck several of the people on the ride. There was no need though for emergency personnel or law enforcement to be called on the scene.

Miley Cyrus has been filming alongside dad Billy Ray Cyrus for about a week. Neither was on set when the incident occurred.

It is the first feature film based on Disney’s hugely popular television series “Hannah Montana.” It also features series regulars Emily Osment, Jason Earles, Mitchel Musso and Moises Aria.

Peter Chelson is directing from a script by Dan Berendsen. The film is scheduled for a spring 2009 release.

Others joining the usual gang are Melora Hardin, Margo Martindale, Barry Bostwick, Peter Gunn, Lucas Till and Vanessa Williams.

The “Hannah Montana” franchise warmed up this spring with the 3-D release of “Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour,” comprising concert footage and behind-the-scenes clips from Miley Cyrus’ 2007 sell-out Best of Both Worlds Tour. It earned $65.3 million at the box office.

The teen pop sensation is also preparing to release her first full-length album, “Breakout,” under her own name on July 22. Miley’s previous two albums were released under her Disney moniker, “Hannah Montana.”

Miley Cyrus Wants Clothing Line – Despite Pictures Hannah Montana Star Will Stay In At Least One More Season

noreply@blogger.com (Shujel) — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 19:03:00 +0000

Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus says she will be working at least one more season. Last week we reported that the 15 year-old star was considering quitting the show. According to a fellow employee she was distraught over the coverage she has been getting following her photo-shoot with Vanity Fair magazine.

According to Hollywood.com, she wants to do at least one more season and maybe two. “We’re doing the movie, and then one more season, maybe two,” Cyrus said. “It’s probably going to be one more season though.” She is even considering other avenues for income.

“I would love to have my own clothing line because my style is different from a lot of people,” Cyrus said. She has a huge following despite her recent scandals. Since the Vanity Fair shoot, new photos have emerged on the Internet (see videos below).

She would like to have a relaxed style clothing line. “I like starting trends, but I also like to be comfortable,” the Hannah Montana star said. “I like to be casual but cute and stylish at the same time.’ Miley wants her line to look similar to her favorite designer Marc Jacobs.”

Last week fans were worried that the teen-star was calling it quits. Co-star and friend, Anna Maria Perez de Tagle, said she was feeling bad about her Vanity Fair photo shoot. “It really hurt her inside,” said Tagle. “She didn’t know that people would look at it like that.”

Jonas Brothers follow Miley Cyrus and sign book deal

noreply@blogger.com (Shujel) — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 19:01:00 +0000

The red hot Jonas Brothers have signed their first ever book deal with Disney Book Group, which will publish an exclusive behind the scenes book from the chart topping band. The book, to be published under the Disney Hyperion Books imprint and designed to capitalize on the trio's growing popularity, will be out this fall after the band's Burning Up Tour wraps up. Disney Book Group has acquired world rights for the title, which follows a similar move by the company when it signed Miley Cyrus aka Hannah Montana to a book deal back in April.

“We have such an amazing time performing at our concerts, and to be able to chronicle all of the fun for our fans and readers is just incredible for us,” said brothers Kevin, Joe and Nick in a statement. “We hope our fans get to relive our shows and discover things they haven’t seen before through our book.”

The band has been a big surprise over the past year, consistently selling out shows, according to TicketNews's exclusive event rankings, and selling albums at a healthy clip. The trio's success, and earning potential, led Live Nation to sign the band to a multi-year touring deal.

Signed to Hollywood Records in 2006, the Jonas Brothers released their self-titled sophomore record in August of that year. Within a week it reached number five on the Billboard Hot 200 chart. They launched a solo headline tour in the spring of this year, and broke the record for the fastest sellout in the history of the Gibson Amphitheater in California. The band is also starring in the eagerly anticipated Disney Channel Original Movie, "Camp Rock," which will premiere this month, and will be heading out on an international tour beginning this summer. Additionally, a 3-D concert feature film starring the brothers will hit theaters in January 2009. Their third album, “A Little Bit Longer,” is set for an August 12 release.

Photo Of Miley Cyrus’ First Kiss Worth $150,000?

noreply@blogger.com (Shujel) — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 19:13:00 +0000

Ever since Miley Cyrus’ popularity skyrockets in the world of the paparazzi, photos of the teen sensation have as well. What’s the most sought after photo of the 15-year-old? One of her first kiss.

The L.A. Times has reported that a photo of Cyrus’ first kiss could equal anywhere from $30,000 to $150,000 for the lucky paparazzi who snaps it.

Experts suspect her rise in popularity may be contributed, for the most part, to her recently published controversial photo spread for Vanity Fair.

“She’s started to sell more. Now the pictures are going for a higher price,” said François Navarre, of the X17. “It used to be $300 for a shot, and now it’s $2,000 for a picture. It has to be a nice picture. I have a couple of guys working on her. It’s not like Britney [Spears], where we have 24/7 coverage, but we are watching her. If she goes out of town, we try to follow her.”

Despite the hefty price tag, Defamer.com says they got the flix already. They have several pictures of her kissing both boys and girls … guess someone beat everybody to it, or maybe … just maybe … they were already out there. We think it’s the later.

Miley Cyrus Prepares for Her First Tattoo: Hannah Montana Gets Ink?

noreply@blogger.com (Shujel) — Fri, 30 May 2008 22:15:00 +0000

Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus has had her share of scandals this year from racy photos that have leaked online that have showed the teen starlet in some embarrassing situations to the Vanity Fair photo scandal that brought an apology and all sorts of excuses from Team Cyrus.

But In Touch Weekly notes in a report this week that it turns out the Cyrus clan condones rebel behavior. Well, at least when it comes to getting inked. With two full sleeves at 19, Miley's brother Trace expects his sister, now 15, to get some permanent body art on her 18th birthday.

"She loves my tattoos," he told In Touch before hitting the stage with his band, Metro Station, at Z100's Zootopia in East Rutherford, N.J., on May 17. "My mother has tattoos, too. I could totally see my mom going with Miley to get her first one. She took me!"

Trace added that many of his markings have special family significance. "This one says 'Mom' and this one is a line from my dad's song 'Hey Daddy,'" he said, pointing to his arm. Trace dismisses the negative attention on Miley, adding that his advice for her is to "just have fun."

Miley Cyrus’s Racy Internet Photos: Round Three

So let’s make this clear. Even though Miley Cyrus has already issued a statement about her regrettable photos, should that same apology apply to pics still coming out?

Surprisingly, someone out there has been holding back on the internet community. While I thought we’d seen everything Cyrus-related by now, apparently there is a shoebox full of self-portraits still waiting to be released. Unfortunately, the latest two photos to hit the web really don’t show any originality.

C’mon, Miley. You must have had a thousand publicity photos taken of you by now. Don’t you have any more original poses in your repertoire? How many ways can you show off your underwear?

Miley Cyrus Leads Kids Choice Awards

noreply@blogger.com (Shujel) — Sun, 25 May 2008 18:43:00 +0000

Miley Cyrus won last year's favorite TV star award but Beyonce captured the favorite singer trophy.

Miley Cyrus is the front-runner in the 21st annual Kids Choice Awards with nominations for favorite singer and favorite actress.

Cyrus, whose television series "Hannah Montana" was also nominated for favorite show, was scheduled to perform at the awards program, singing "Girl's Night Out" from her hit album "Hannah Montana 2: Meet Miley Cyrus."

Cyrus won last year's favorite TV star award but Beyonce captured the favorite singer trophy. The two were nominated again this year, along with Fergie and Alicia Keys.

Competing against Cyrus for the favorite TV actress award were Emma Roberts of " Unfabulous," Jamie Lynn Spears of " Zoey 101" and Raven- Symone of "That's So Raven."

The 90-minute will broadcast from UCLA's Pauley Pavilion before a large audience of 10,000 mostly teen and preteen fans.

The program, which puts as much emphasis on a rollicking good time as handing out awards, is hosted this year by Jack Black. At some point Black and other celebrities were expected to be doused in Nickelodeon's trademark green slime and there was likely to be an acrobatic stunt performed involving slime, although the show's independent producers were keeping quiet on what was planned. In some years celebrities also take part in burping contests.

Although the show is as much about fun as awards, it has drawn a huge celebrity turnout in recent years. Among those scheduled to participate were Harrison Ford, Hayden Panettiere, Amy Poehler, Jennifer Love Hewitt and Ryan Seacrest. The Jonas Brothers Band, in Florida to promote a forthcoming album and tour, said Friday they were flying home for the event.

"We're nominated for an award," Nick Jonas said proudly. It was for favorite music group.

The film " Shrek The Third" had a leading four nominations, including one for favorite animated movie. The other three were for favorite voice from an animated movie and were for Mike Meyers as Shrek, Cameron Diaz as his wife, Fiona, and Eddie Murphy as Shrek's loyal sidekick, Donkey. The fourth went to Jerry Seinfeld for "Bee Movie."

Nearly 60 million ballots had been cast from votes at Nickelodeon's Web site, breaking last year's record of 40 million.

Production for the first fictional feature film based on Disney's wildly popular series "Hannah Montana" starring Miley Cyrus kicked off, Disney said Thursday.

Also starring "Hannah Montana" regulars Emily Osment, Jason Earles, Mitchel Musso, Moises Arias and Billy Ray Cyrus, the movie, written b Dan Berendsen and directed by Peter Chelson, is scheduled for a spring 2009 release. Others joining the usual gang will be Melora Hardin, Margo Martindale, Barry Bostwick, Peter Gunn, Lucas Till and Vanessa Williams.

This year's 3-D release of "Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour" comprising concert footage and behind-the-scenes clips from Miley Cyrus’ 2007 sell-out Best of Both Worlds Tour, raked in $65.3 million at the box office.

In the meantime, the teen pop sensation is set to release her first full-length album "Breakout" under her own name on July 22. Miley’s previous two albums were released under her Disney moniker, "Hannah Montana."

The album is being released through Disney’s Hollywood Records and her first single, "7 Things," was released to radio last week.

"Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: The Best of Both Worlds Concert" is currently No. 32 on the Billboard 200, while "Hannah Montana 2/Meet Miley Cyrus" (a former chart topper) is currently No. 66.
