Lindsay Escapes and Miley Breaks Up

Well, she didn’t serve her entire term in jail (14 days out of 90) and now Lindsay Lohan has left rehab before serving all of her court ordered time. After Lohan left jail, she was immediately taken to an inpatient rehab facility where she was supposed to serve 90 days. However, she was released Tuesday after only 23 days. Because surely that is enough for Lohan – NOT! But, the rehab staff at the facility thought so and the judge bought it. I am sure Lohan is glad to be out of jail and rehab, but do any of us … Continue reading

Miley Cyrus’ New Direction

It’s looking like Miley Cyrus will only be safe for her young fans as long as she’s donning the blonde Hannah Montana wig. While the super-popular Disney Channel show will return this summer, the rest of Cyrus’ material is no longer necessarily suitable for mass consumption by all of her fans. I stumbled across the music video for Miley Cyrus’ latest single “Can’t Be Tamed” on a Washington Post article comparing her career to former Mickey Mouse club starlets Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera. A viewing of the video certainly makes it look like Cyrus is eager to follow in … Continue reading

Hannah Montana The Movie

I recently had the opportunity to take my seven-year-old daughter to see Hannah Montana. To be honest I was not looking forward to the experience, since I do not generally enjoy the television show. However I was pleasantly surprised to find that I did enjoy the movie. The comedy worked well against the overall story. In the movie Miley is becoming too focused on being Hannah. The stardom is going to her head and she gets in a fight with Tyra at a store. She also shows up at her best friend’s Lily’s sixteenth birthday party as Hannah and completely … Continue reading

Obama Girls Going Hollywood?

Thanks to their father’s new job, we know President-elect Barack Obama’s two young daughters are headed to Washington, but if the folks at Disney have their way, Malia and Sasha Obama may have a chance to take Hollywood by storm as well. In a statement released earlier this week execs at the Disney Channel (one of the Obama girls’ favorite TV networks) invited the newest first children the opportunity to appear on the mega-popular hit series “Hannah Montana.” “We’re pleased that Malia and Sasha are fans and, as long as their parents say it’s OK, they are invited to the … Continue reading

According to the New York Daily News, Justin Gaston, Cyrus’ underwear model boyfriend, is living with … Continue reading

Oh My… Miley! G-Rated Star Appears in PG-13 Photos

So, by now I’m sure you are well aware of the whole Miley Cyrus provocative photo brouhaha. For those of you who have been blissfully living in a media-free world allow me to give you an update: The 15-year-old squeaky-clean Disney star might want to stay away from digital cameras for a while. The teen is currently embroiled in two front-page controversies both of which involve racy pictures of her. Last week the singer-actress went on the defensive when “playfully provocative” photos of her posing on her ex-boyfriend’s lap showed up on the Internet. (Cyrus called them “silly.”) In one … Continue reading

The Next Hannah Montana Must Have

The next thing your kid is going to want is a flight to Nashville on Sunday. There will be an open casting call at the Sommet Center by Walt Disney Studios for extras to appear in “a major motion picture based on a hit television series starring a well known pop teen sensation.” Since we all know the Hannah Montana movie will be shot in Nashville, this seems a bit of a no-brainer. Let’s see…hit Disney television series…Mickey Mouse Clubhouse? Not likely. Mickey has ceased to be a pop teen sensation as he’s fairly elderly now. The biggest television series … Continue reading

If you are a parent of a Hannah Montana fan and live in New York you might just want to brace yourself for this next newsflash: The first showing of the “Hannah Montana” concert movie at the Ziegfield theater was practically empty today.
