When it comes to fighting women's cancers, Miley and Tish Cyrus say, 'We're all in!'
When it comes to talking to your kids and teens about the "c" word, you can never start too young, says Tish Cyrus, mom to mega superstar Miley.
"My dad passed away when I was 19 from throat cancer and later my grandmother from ovarian cancer. That really affected me in huge way," Cyrus says. "It's scary when you have girls, and you hear how many women of all ages, including the young, are affected by cancer every year."
When it comes to the numbers, Cyrus is right. According to the American Cancer Society, more than 290,000 U.S. women will be diagnosed with breast and gynecologic cancers, and more than 67,000 women will die from these cancers. Cyrus' remedy?
"You cannot be overly cautious. I've been very open with my girls (Brandi, Miley and Noah) on how cancer doesn't just happen when you're 50," says Cyrus. "Even though it hasn't been their favorite thing, Brandi and Miley have both been to doctor and had their female checkups."
But Cyrus has taken a step further. She and daughter Miley have teamed up with City of Hope's "All In Week," running Sept. 23 through Oct. 1, to spread this awareness to all mothers and young women.
I recently caught up with Cyrus to learn more about their commitment to this cause.
Kindness: When did you and Miley first get involved with City of Hope?
Tish Cyrus: City of Hope has been such a special part of our lives. Miley and I first got involved a little over three years ago when we toured their facilities. This, along with children's cancer, was something that Miley was really passionate about. It's so devastating to see how many people are affected by cancer every year.
One of the first things Miley did with City of Hope was to team up with Disney on their "The Concert for Hope," a concert at the Gibson Amphitheatre [at Universal City, Cali.] with the Jonas Brothers and Demi Lovato where for each ticket sold, $1 was given to City of Hope. I believe she raised over a $1 million through that effort. We've been so blessed, and wanted to find ways to give back.
Kindness: You mentioned the importance of early checkups for teens. What else do you recommend for parents when comes to educating kids and teens about cancer prevention?
Cyrus: It has a lot to do with how much time you spend with your kids. I try to encourage good nutrition and exercise habits by example, so I do a lot of things together with all three girls. With Miley, there are so many weekend nights we stay home and do fitness videos together. We always end up rolling on the floor laughing at my funny dance moves. We tend to have more fun doing things like that than a dinner and movie. We also ride bikes all the time. Brandi and I hike with the dogs a lot. It's also huge to talk about nutrition. I caught Noah trying to order pizza at 10 p.m. last night, so we talked this morning about nutrition and how it's important to have balance.
Kindness: In addition to her work with City of Hope, Miley has also been involved in encouraging other young adults. Tell us more about that.
Cyrus: A lot of kids may think, 'Oh, I'm so young. There is nothing I can do to make a difference.' That's not true, and Miley is a great example of that. Miley has always believed that if we all do something small, you can make a huge difference. People don't know how much she does because, for her, it's not about the publicity. When visiting a children's hospital at home in Tennessee or being involved with City of Hope's "All In Week", it's about getting out to spread the message, to know the kids, being in that moment and hour.
Also, teens can make a huge difference when comes to setting an example for young kids. That's especially been the case with our youngest, Noah, who's 10. She looks up to Brandi and Miley and the work they're doing to support City of Hope. In fact, she's planning to go to Haiti after Christmas for a mission trip.
Kindness: Who would you say most inspires Miley's efforts to make a difference?
Cyrus: Her dad [Billy Ray]. In the early 90s when he was touring, we'd do 290 show in 350 days, and I never remember one show when he didn't spend time with special needs kids, meeting and greeting them after the show. You could just see in their faces the difference that it made in their lives. It made him so happy, too. He'd also give all the gifts he'd been given at each show to local children's hospitals, even if he had to drop them off at midnight! Miley was just a little girl then, but those things she remembers.
I'm proud of her as a mom. The money that's she raised for City of Hope is just incredible. I've worked to instill that she can never forget how blessed she is to be involved in something she loves so much, and that she must do everything she can to give back. She's really done that. You can also see the light that turns on inside her when she stands on a stage and gets to give a $1 million check to the City of Hope. To use that fame, to give back to kids and the City of Hope…it's the only reason that makes what she's doing worth it for us.
New law to paparazzi in California
The paparazzi situation has long been out of control.
On Tuesday, the California Assembly took action.
Legislators overwhelmingly approved a bill that will hit reckless photographers with harsh penalties including possible imprisonment.
According to the legislation, photographers who break traffic laws or interfere with the operation of a celebrity’s car can receive a maximum $5,000 fine and one year imprisonment.
After making its way through the Assembly and Senate this summer, a modified version passed Tuesday’s reconfirmation vote 43-13.
Now the state’s governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger – himself a victim of paparazzo pests — must sign the act into law.
“We feel this new law will improve public safety in general and hopefully prevent anyone else from getting hurt,” said Paparazzi Reform Initiative founder Sean Burke.
Celebrities including Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon have supported the measure, and with good reason considering recent events.
Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart had to flee paparazzi who weaved through Los Angeles traffic, endangering the stars and other motorists.
Lindsay Lohan’s first tweet after rehab took on photographers who hounded her as she drove.
Paparazzi badgered January Jones into a minor accident, provoked Alexander Skarsgard and took invasive shots of Tori Spelling’s toddler, among other offenses. In general, photographers indifferent to decency have far more entitled than the celebs they accuse of bad behavior.
Gossip Cop is thrilled to see California take steps toward curbing the paparazzi menace.
Tuesday is the 13th anniversary of Princess Diana’s death in an accident blamed on swarming photographers. Hopefully, stronger legislation and harsher penalties against paparazzi will help to ensure that an often dangerous tabloid culture doesn’t claim more victims.

Brazilian "TodaTeen" Interview
Miley recently gave an interview to a brazilian magazine called “TodaTeen”. Below you can check it out, translated.
TT: You play a rebellious teenager in “The Last Song”. But fans know you as a girl kinder and full. Have you ever been rebellious?
Miley: Oh, yes! You should see me at home sometimes. I’m a rebel, of course, my parents could tell you some things about my rebellious (laughs). I have my moments there. But it is also true that I am very close to my family, especially my father.
TT: “The Last Song” speaks about losing a family member. Have you ever lost someone close?
Miley: Yes, I have. My best friend died a few years ago. And it was devastating. That taught me to never underestimate what you have in life. You have to tell people how much you love them. Always. I do it every day.
TT: How do you react when you’re sad?
Miley: I isolate myself and I am upset for a while. I just want to be alone, without leaving home. But you can not ignore a pain forever, you have to move on.
TT: Who do you talk with when you have problems with your boyfriend?
Miley: I can talk to my dad about everything. He’s like me. He does not judge me. And I really love that about him.
TT: You’re one of the biggest stars on the planet. How do you cope with all the pressure that comes with it?
Miley: I do not read, actually. It is out of control. I just try to take one day at a time and do what I enjoy. My life is so busy that sometimes I have no time to reflect on how I handle it all.
TT: What qualities do you look for in a guy?
Miley: He’s got to be kitten (laughs), it helps. And I like spontaneous guys. I like boys who enjoy outdoor activities as we do in Nashville, my hometown.
TT: Would you describe yourself as a typical Southern girl?
Miley: Hmmm, if that includes enjoying dirty bikes and horses, of course! I’m not the kind of person who gets all silly and melted due to a dinner by candlelight. It’s a little too corny for my taste. I enjoy the beach, love going out and doing different things.
TT: What does love mean to you?
Miley: It’s weird, I think the last thing people look for today is love. Everyone focuses on the negative or someone is trying to deconstruct. The world outside is difficult. I live it every day. It seems that people are often amused to see someone falling. Love is important, is the essence of life. We all need to focus on love in our lives.
TT: What would you say to young girls who want to be like you?
Miley: That’s complicated. I see my sister and she wants to be like me. On one side. I think it’s excellent, but another, I want to ensure that, whatever she does, your heart is 100% there. I try to make good choices in my life. My life was my choice. That does not mean everyone has to live this way.
TT: A perfect day for you is …
Miley: Well, the beach has to be included in my perfect day. And no shoes. I’m not really wear shoes.
TT: Who has been your adviser in recent years?
Miley: I do not know if I can call it that, but Jodie Foster talked to me some years ago and she has been kind of an inspiration to me. She told me to keep my head up and surround myself with good people. I quite appreciate that advice.
TT: Where do you see yourself in five years?
Miley: I want to keep separate the acting from singing. And I never want to have music in the background of my life. Music will always have a special place in my heart.
TT: What do you think of first love, something is overrated?
Miley: I do not think so. It’s a little more focused on movies. But one fact that can not fail to take into account about the first love is that it will break your heart. It’s just the way things are. But it is a loss and a gain at the same time. You have to love in your life.
TT: What would you be if you didn’t become a star?
Miley: My dream job has always been to become a wedding planner. The problem is that I’m bad with schedules, I don’t even have a clock. But I like the idea of planning a big event.

Taya Parker Copying Miley Cyrus?

Taya’s song is called ‘Nothin’ to Lose ‘. Hear both songs here and tell us what you think of the comparison between the two.

New Youtube Video "cricket"
OMG EMILY GRACE IS A FREAK OF NATURE! HOW DOES ONE MAKE THIS NOISE???? HAHAHAHAHAHAH! JUST FOUND THIS FROM IN BETWEEN A TAKE OF THE NOIE AND EMS SHOW!HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
City of Hope launch gynaecological cancer initiative
Yesterday (September 23rd) saw the launch of All In Week; an initiative designed to raise awareness of breast and gynaecological cancer.
The week-long event is to coincide with National Breast Cancer Month which begins in October, and has seen support offered from singer Miley Cyrus and bloggers and online influencers who are creating 15-second videos explaining the importance of City of Hope's mission.
Joanne Mortimer, director of the programme, explained that feminine cancers attack the body and spirit, undermining women's self-image and confidence.
"The Women's Cancers Program is 'all in', fully dedicated to curing and healing the whole woman by developing therapies that increase survival and improve quality of life, not only for our patients at City of Hope, but for women nationwide with breast and gynaecological cancers," she added.
Meanwhile, research from Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, has found that as many as 70 per cent of breast cancer survivors struggle with sexual problems in the two years following their diagnosis.
Ashley Hinshaw Talks Miley Cyrus & 'LOL'
Let us be the first to introduce you to Ashley Hinshaw, the 21-year-old rising star who plays Miley Cyrus’s best friend in the upcoming comedy LOL: Laughing Out Loud.
Ashley talks about many things including what it was like working with Miley Cyrus, Ashley Greene & Tanz Watson.
JJ: With LOL when did you start shooting? Are you finished and where is that?
AH: Yeah! I auditioned for LOL in April or May… They first said I didn’t fit the part but three weeks later, I got a phone call asking to screen test with Miley the next day. Immediately, it just felt right between us three: Me, Miley, and the other girl who’s the best friend in the trio whose name is Lina Esco. We came to Michigan to start filming about five week ago. And we’ve been here, we’ve got another ten days in Michigan and then we go to Chicago for three days and then we go over to Paris for a week and then we’ll be all finished.
JJ: Can you tell us more about your character?
AH: I play Emily and she’s Miley’s best friend. The movie is a coming of age one, not really a comedy or drama. It has a little of everything in it. Emily is the comedic relief — this high school girl with strict parents that goes crazy on her own. She just wants to explore everything but is feeling kind of repressed from her. She’s really great and funny and I get to work closely with Austin Nichols who plays one of my teachers and Nora Dunn is my mother who is just so fantastic.
JJ: What’s your favorite scene to shoot?
AH: We shot this scene yesterday where the kids take a class trip and of course craziness ensues. Adam Sevani and I are kind of a couple in the movie and there were no parents or chaperone around. So, we go crazy and have fun.
JJ: How does your friendship with Miley on-screen compare off-screen?
AH: I didn’t know Miley before I came onto this project. I was hoping that we’d really have a real connection and we absolutely do. She is so fun to be around it’s easy to forget that she’s 17 sometimes because she’s got this great energy and she’s so dedicated to the project and to making it something new and exciting. We really have gotten to be great, great friends and I think that translates on-screen.
JJ: Do you have a favorite memory off-set between you two?
AH: A couple of days ago in the hair and makeup trailer, we talked for 1.5 hours wondering if there are aliens out in the world. She told me stories of people she knows that think aliens exist. One time, I forgot my line and I looked at her and she brought up the alien comment. It sounded so weird and so out of context but it was so funny.
JJ: What was your first impression of Ashley Greene? Are you in any scenes with her?
AH: Our characters are not friends. She’s kind of the antagonist to Miley and my character. But Ashley is really, really fantastic, really down to earth.
JJ: Is it confusing having two Ashley’s on set?
AH: So confusing! What’s even more confusing is I am Ashley playing Emily and Ashley Greene is Ashley playing Ashley. So it is really confusing. Every time Ashley is called, five different people answer but it’s really funny.
JJ: Have you have any scenes with Tanz Watson?
AH: Yeah! Tanz is one of the group’s young friends and Tanz and I don’t have a lot of interactions between our characters but he’s such a great, great guy and again he’s down to earth. Tanz is this ripped dude and he goes gym three times a day. A little over the necessity level but we’ve been working out together, so I’ve gotten to know him well. He’s very talented I think that he’s got a big career ahead of him.
JJ: Awesome. Do you have a favorite prop from set?
AH: I have a least favorite prop! I have this red purse that is kind of… it’s Emily’s purse and she wears it everywhere and it is just… it’s not that it is just a cute purse, it’s a great bag but it’s so big and so kind of cumbersome and I’m always, always wearing it in almost every scene in the movie and as soon as I hear cut, the bag is dropped to the ground. I cannot, I never want to see that bag again in my entire life.
JJ: Obviously the title is an acronym ‘LOL’ are there like a whole bunch of acronyms used in the movie? Like ‘BRB’…
AH: No, you know, there aren’t. I kind of thought there was going to be and I wasn’t so sure how that would go but no. But Miley’s character’s name is Lola and so her nickname is Lol. So it kind of works for both things so it’s like laughing out loud but it also stands for Miley’s character. So we had to make sure that quite a few times in the movie instead of calling her Lola, we called her Lol so hopefully the audience could put two and two together.

Bieber Not “Devastated” Over Miley & Liam Reunion
“Miley Breaks Justin’s Heart” screams a headline in the National Enquirer about Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber.
“These are the pictures that broke Justin Bieber’s heart,” begins the piece, which showcases the widely-seen paparazzi shots of Cyrus in her car kissing Liam Hemsworth, with whom she recently reconciled.
And just why did the pictures leave Bieber, as the tab claims, “shattered”?
“Justin truly believed that he could win Miley. He feels women all over the world of every age want him, so why not Miley?” a so-called source tells the Enquirer.
And not only that, but the source further alleges that “Justin thought he was in love with Miley. Seeing her happy again with Liam is tearing him up. He’s devastated.”
Really?
Looks like the Enquirer didn’t see some other photos.
You know, the ones of Bieber and Jasmine Villegas getting a little, um, close in the back of a car.
So, if Cyrus is kissing Hemsworth in a car, and Bieber is kissing his gal in a car, guess the only thing “shattered” here is the Enquirer’s ridiculous story.
Oops.
‘Hannah Montana Forever’ Soundtrack Out October 19th
New music from Disney’s “Hannah Montana,” the global smash hit TV series that became the biggest, fastest success the pop album charts have seen in years — with #1 soundtracks and combined sales of over 12 million CDs to-date — will be available in the fourth season soundtrack Hannah Montana Forever — featuring actress and pop superstar Miley Cyrus collaborating with Iyaz, Sheryl Crow and Billy Ray Cyrus. The album will be available in stores and at online retailers October 19 on Walt Disney Records.
The Hannah Montana Forever soundtrack will have its broadcast debut on Radio Disney’s Planet Premiere feature with host Ernie D on Sunday, October 17 (7:00 p.m., ET/ 4:00 p.m., PT) with a rebroadcast on Monday, October 18 (12:00 p.m., ET/ 9:00 a.m., PT). Two tracks, “Are You Ready” and “Ordinary Girl,” have already hit the Top 5 on Radio Disney’s Top 30 Countdown this summer. Fans can also sneak preview the album online at RadioDisney.com for a limited time, beginning October 16.
The album covers much musical ground, from intimate ballads to straight-up high-voltage pop. “Gonna Get This” is a synth-laden pop duet between Miley and the Caribbean-based singer Iyaz, while the harmony-rich “Need a Little Love” pairs Miley with legendary singer-songwriter Sheryl Crow. Miley and her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, sing together the ballad “Love That Lets Go,” a fitting tribute to their close relationship, both on screen and off. The sentiment continues on “Been Here All Along” and the wistful farewell, “I’ll Always Remember You.” But the album kicks into high gear with upbeat rockers like “Kiss It Goodbye,” “I’m Still Good,” and the club anthem “Are You Ready.” The soulful “Ordinary Girl,” “Que Sera” and the explosive pop of “Barefoot Cinderella” round out the album’s 11 tracks.
The accomplished songwriters who contributed to the soundtrack include: Toby Gad (Beyonce, Fergie, Alicia Keys), “Glee’s” Adam Anders (“Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam,” “Hannah Montana The Movie,” “High School Musical 3: Senior Year”), Jamie Houston (“Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam,” “High School Musical,” Miley Cyrus, Sheryl Crow, Kid Rock), Mitch Allan (produced and co-wrote with Jessi Alexander “I’ll Always Remember You,” Chris Daughtry, Faith Hill, “Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam,” “StarStruck”), Jessi Alexander (“The Climb,” Toby Keith, Trisha Yearwood), Joacim Persson and Niclas Molinder (“JONAS L.A.,” “Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam,” “Cheetah Girls One World,” Charice, Ashley Tisdale) and with songs featured in all four “Hannah” seasons, Jeannie Lurie (“Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam,” “StarStruck”).
Songs included on Hannah Montana Forever are:
“Gonna Get This” featuring Iyaz
“Que Sera”
“Ordinary Girl”
“Kiss It Goodbye”
“I’ll Always Remember You”
“Need a Little Love” featuring Sheryl Crow
“Are You Ready”
“Love That Lets Go” featuring Billy Ray Cyrus
“I’m Still Good”
“Been Here All Along”
“Barefoot Cinderella”
The hit Disney Channel series “Hannah Montana” is a global triumph, reaching over 266 million unduplicated viewers worldwide, in over 150 countries and in 30 different languages. Delivering at record levels after more than four years on TV, “Hannah Montana” has grown its audience in each of its four years on air, with its fourth season pacing at record levels in Total Viewers (5.4 million), Kids 6-11 (2.1 million) and Tweens 9-14 (2.0 million).
Cyrus is the youngest ever recording artist with four #1 albums in less than three years. Her solo albums on Hollywood Records include the #1 debut album Breakout, Time of Our Lives EP featuring the smash hit single “Party in the USA,” and her most recent release Can’t Be Tamed. She is currently filming the independent feature “LOL” opposite Demi Moore.
The “Hannah Montana Forever” soundtrack can be pre-ordered at Disney.com/hannahfanwall. For more information on Walt Disney Records’ releases, please visit DisneyRecords.com, become a fan at Facebook.com/disneymusic or follow us at Twitter.com/disneymusic.
Hannah Montana Forever Episode 8 - "Hannah's Gonna Get This"
Miley has writer's block coming up with the song for Hannah's latest album and she ends up writing something that is un-Hannah like. Meanwhile, Rico goads Jackson into trying to grow a mustache.
Billboard's '21 Under 21' List
They’re young, they’re on a white-hot winning streak, and most importantly, they’re just getting started: These are Billboard.com’s “21 Under 21,” selected not only for their tender age but also for their potential to rule the pop culture zeitgeist over the next 12 months.
Whether it’s a country star whose every song lyric demands hours of analysis (Is she singing about Joe, Taylor or Kanye?!), a beloved breakout character on TV’s hottest high school musical, or a newcomer who landed a record deal on the strength of one Lady Gaga cover, expect them all to to keep us watching — and listening — in the year to come. On to the countdown of our picks!
Why She’s Hot: She was cast as Hannah Montana at age 12, and when the show premiered to the Disney Channel’s largest audience ever, Cyrus was an instant teen idol. The “Hannah Montana” franchise has spawned four seasons, a string of hit singles, a full-length movie and enough branded merchandise to fill up a middle school gymnasium. Cyrus’ ascent toward adult famedom ramped up earlier this year, when she released a more mature-sounding album, “Can’t Be Tamed” in June. The album didn’t quite tame the charts though, and Miley appears to be focusing more on her acting career with three films (“LOL: Laughing Outloud,” “Wake” and “Wings”) in the works. Still, we don’t expect the unflappable Miss Cyrus to stay away from the record studio for too long.
Other people who made it to this list are Demi Lovato (#8), Nick Jonas (#6), Selena Gomez (#3), Taylor Swift (#1) and more.
Cyrus Family Loves Tattoos
A teenage daughter coming home with a tattoo is usually enough to send most parents into a tailspin.
But that's not the case in the Cyrus family, where Miley's latest body art matches a tattoo her father had inked two years ago.
Miley's third tattoo, a heart on the little finger of her right hand, is similar to a heart dad Billy Ray had tattooed onto his left hand two years ago.
Billy Ray's tattoo was inked over a heart Miley drew on his hand in pen while in church.
'We were sitting beside each other and I noticed she just picked up my hand and she drew this little heart on there,' Billy Ray told Access Hollywood.
When a 17-year-old Miley wanted to get her first tattoo in 2009, it was mum Tish that signed the consent form, before she and husband Billy Ray requested some body art themselves.
The tattoo artist in question was Christopher Garcia, an award-winning Hollywood tattoo artist, who has also tattooed Miley's half-brother Trace, 22, who has a 'full sleeve' of tattoos on both arms.
US law prohibits tattoos for under eighteens, so it caused controversy when pictures of Miley's 'Just breathe' tattoo emerged last December.
Garcia told Philipino website Spot: 'During her tour last year, (her camp) had me fly out to Miami to do her first tattoo. Because she was only 17 at the time, her mom talked to me and I had her mom sign a consent form.
'She asked for a tattoo near her heart that said 'Just Breathe.'
'After that, she had me tattoo the word 'Love' on her ear. We had that tattoo session at their house in Los Angeles.'
Miley's most recent addition is a small heart on the little finger of her right hand, but in comparison to her parents, Miley's three tattoos are quite modest.
Billy Ray has as a full sleeve tattoo on his right arm and a Native American portrait on his left.
Her mother has tattoos including angel wings on her back and flowers on her abdomen.
Amy Colalella Covers Miley Cyrus' "Right Here"
(This was recorded in April 2010 at Rock Mafia)
Hi everyone ! Okay, SO... For those of you that don't know, I won a contest back in January of 2010. I entered the contest in October of 2008 and it was a VERY long journey. I entered a minute long video with about 8,000 others, and then the top 50 was announced in January of 2009. From January 2009 to 2010, there was the top 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, 8, 6, 4, 3, and 2. For each round, the contestants had to submit different videos and the videos were voted on at mileyworld.com and mileycyrus.com. It was a GREAT experience, and I met so many great people (youtube.com/mledawn14, youtube.com/sabrinastar99, youtube.com/cheerbabe6150, youtube.com/alyviathesinger, youtube.com/ryliebrown101, youtube.com/cistar14) but it was one of the most anxious/stressful things I have ever experienced.
Anyways, there is a little about the backstory! The winner was said to receive a record deal throughout the competition, but as most of you can probably guess, Miley Cyrus is a VERY busy girl. I won the contest in January, but didn't end up going out to LA until April (which is when I recorded this song with Rock Mafia & Miley in the Rock Mafia Studio). It was a VERY unplanned weekend, but before I went I had the opportunity to pick between 6 songs: Good & Broken, Right Here, Bottom of the Ocean, See you again (All by Miley), Baby come back to me (Vanessa Hudgens), or Potential BreakUp Song (Aly & Aj). It was a tough decision.... but I landed on Right here (clearly..... tehhehe).
For me, as an "artist" and a perfectionist, I am EXTREMELY hard on myself ... Which is why I complain about a lot when I upload videos hhahaha..... So for me..... When I first heard my first official recording (this song) I cried and was SO happy, and loved it. But now ...... after so many months ....... I'm ehhhh about it. I've been doing things to improve my voice, so for me, I would do so many things differently with this song! BUT, I hope you all enjoy it anyways! This was never a "single" to say, just always a pre-release.
I have no idea what/when the next steps will be... but I am SO excited to take them. I can't thank any of you enough for all the support you've given me, and if you were there with me throughout the whole contest, I love you, so much. I honestly can't thank you enough, really. I went through SO many changes throughout the longevity of this contest and you all were there for me through it all....
YouTube has changed my life, this contest has changed my life, and YOU have changed my life.
Although I get into.... moments when I think I could have done better with this recording... or I look bad in the pictures... or I was too pale and my hair looked bad, or BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH (The "Feeling So" original song I uploaded the other day, about the insecurities .... that's where this comes from hahaha) I am SO THANKFUL. SO, so so so so SO thankful for everything that's happened in this contest. Through the tears, and the wait and the stress of it all, I wouldn't change it because I am changed because of it.
....It sounds so cliche, I know, but that is honestly the reality of it.
Anyways, THANK YOU. So much !! Thank you Miley, Jason, Alison, Tim James & Antonina Armato (Miley's Producers of Rock Mafia.... two of the NICEST people I have ever met in my entire life) !!
I am so blessed to be in this situation, and I am so thankful.
xoxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxoxoxo, Amy
PS: Miley, is SOOOOOO nice !!! She was SO welcoming for me to be there and is one of the sweetest girls I have ever met. and, also is even more beautiful in person than in pictures/on TV! (PSS, she had .... 5 inch? heels on which is why she's so much taller than me, we're actually the same height! teheheh)

Gay Men Love Miley Cyrus
As a general rule, the gay community loves us some female pop stars. This may come from identification with strong, feminine icons, or just the love of a good beat and excellent vocals. And the arrival of the digital age has brought a wave of societal tolerance as well as tools for gays to proclaim both their sexuality and their fandom. Specifically, remaking music videos by certain female pop stars.
It’s a false stereotype that all gay men love to perform. For that matter, not all dudes who lipsynch in front of a camera are gay. But if you find yourself recording a shot-for-shot remake of a Christina Aguilera video … maybe reevaluate your sexual preferences. I’m just sayin’.
These amateur remakes of popular music videos (what we in post-Be Kind Rewind society sometimes refer to as sweding) are a trend that seems especially strong among those in the gay community. Songs like Katy Perry‘s “California Gurls” and just about anything by Lady Gaga practically seem designed to be juxtaposed with dancing guys in coifed haircuts and speedos, and people like Ryan James Yezak seem to be entirely cognizant of this.
Yezak has practically made a career out of making elaborate, choreographed gay versions of music videos. Skim through his YouTube channel and you’ll find a bevy of female pop star renditions including Britney Spears and Ke$ha.
But Yezak’s work is just the tip of the iceberg. Other gay fans have taken it upon themselves to record their own versions of Taylor Swift‘s “You Belong With Me,” Miley Cyrus‘s “Party in the USA,” and many others. One lip dub to Lilly Allen‘s “F*ck You” even incorporates multiple YouTubers in a massive collaboration that celebrates Allen’s vitriolic pro-tolerance message.
Yezak’s newest video for Kary Perry’s “Peacock” has actually been incorporated into her viral marketing campaign as her people reached out to AfterElton to tout the gay version of “Peacock.” Meanwhile, Lady Gaga even gave specific thanks to her gay fans for remaking “Bad Romance” at the recent MTV Video Music Awards. The fact that she was wearing a golden feather mohawk at the time doesn’t make the acknowledgment any less weighty.
It’s not exactly a secret that there’s some sort of mysterious, inseparable connection between singing ladies and the gays, and while that hasn’t changed since the heydays of Cher, Liza, Barbra and Bette, the way that gays express their inner fanboy definitely has. And the evolution of gay music fandom reflects a positive change in society’s acceptance of homosexuality.
Earlier generations celebrated their favorite divas with drag performances in the secluded haven of gay bars. This certainly still takes place today, but as society has become more tolerant (to an extent, even receptive) towards gay culture, gay fans have become comfortable enough to put their appreciation for female pop music (and by association, their sexuality) on display for the entire world to see.
Meanwhile, pop stars seem to have caught on to a simple fact that many of us figured out years ago: viral video is hella powerful, and artists would do well to embrace fan content and not suppress it. And frankly, Katy Perry is lucky to have so many gay fans willing to overlook certain lyrical choices, not to mention her idea of how to use the word “gay” as a putdown of dudes who rejected her in high school.
So cheers to Gaga, Allen and all the rest for donating just a tiny ounce of the spotlight to us fanboys, and for realizing that imitation really is the most sincere form of flattery.
Iyaz Duets With Miley On Hannah Montana
R&B/pop singer and "Hannah Montana" diehard fan Iyaz got the chance to make his acting debut on the Disney Channel show, in an episode set to air Oct. 3 at 8 P.M. ET. The show will feature the premiere of new track "Gonna Get This," a duet between the "Replay" singer and star Miley Cyrus.
"I've been watching the show for a very long time, and finally got the opportunity to do a song with Miley," says the 23-year-old singer. "[The song] definitely has some edge to it. She did her thing and I put my little island twist on it."
Iyaz plays himself in the episode and helps Cyrus' character overcome a case of writer's block. Although the singer arrived at the show's set last spring not knowing what to expect, he says that the "Hannah Montana" crew "treated me like family… it was a lot of fun, and definitely a lifetime experience."
After reaching No. 2 on the Hot 100 with debut single "Replay" last January and releasing an album of the same name earlier this year, Iyaz says that he's "wrapping up" his follow-up disc in Los Angeles. An opening slot on Justin Bieber's tour slowed down work on the album, but Iyaz says it was worth it to join his "little brother" on the road.
"During the days we had nothing to do, we would either be playing video games or playing around with some beats, and just having fun," says Iyaz. "[Bieber] is definitely down-to-earth. Some people start acting all crazy when they blow up, but he's been cool from the jump."

Top 5 Graduating Child Stars
Here are out Top 5 Graduating Child Stars:
1. MILEY CYRUS
She started out as Hannah Montana... but it seems that little ol’ Miley Cyrus is growing up faster than we all expected. Her new album name of “Can’t be Tamed” is proving true with raunchier outfits, a couple of boyfriends along the way and the end of her Disney side.
2. ZAC EFRON
He started out in High School Musical then moved onto some more singing and dancing in Hairspray and some comedy in 17 Again but Zac Efron has brought out his serious side in his new movie Charlie St Cloud. Oh and did we mention the beard?
3. SELENA GOMEZ
The sweet and innocent Disney star has only just shed her image and only just turned 18!
4. LIAM HEMSWORTH
Our token Aussie in the list started in Ramsey Street and shot to stardom with his first dramatic movie The Last Song. But the thing we know him best for is his little hook-ups with Number 1. on the list....Miley Cyrus
5. LINDSAY LOHAN
Do we need to explain any more? Once a star of the Parent Trap and Herbie the Love Bug... but now getting thrown in jail... going to rehab... and relapsing all in a couple of months. Poor LiLo.
Miley Cyrus NOT Living Together With Liam Hemsworth
Aceshowbiz.com : A representative for Miley Cyrus has dismissed rumors the "Hannah Montana" star is living with her boyfriend Liam Hemsworth following their recent reconciliation.
The couple called off their relationship in August, but sparked speculation they had reunited earlier this month when they were seen picnicking near Cyrus' California home.
They showed off their romantic reunion days later when they were spotted kissing in the Disney star's car - and reports subsequently surfaced alleging the pair had moved in together. But a representative for Cyrus has dismissed the claims, telling GossipCop.com, "They don't live together."
Rumors also spread that Miley is also close to her "LOL: Laughing Out Loud" co-star Douglas Booth while filming in Paris, France. Starring together in a movie was also how Cyrus and Hemsworth came together. They portray lovers in "The Last Song" before coming out with the real relationship.
Rumors come back...Miley Cyrus Wants To Marry Liam?
Miley Cyrus is back with boyfriend Liam Hemsworth — and she’s already talking marriage, insiders say.
The pair — who met last year on the set of their recent movie The Last Song — split a few months back, but have now got back together.
Insiders say Cyrus wants commitment from her hunky beau — and is dropping hints she wants him to put a ring on it.
“With the life she’s led, Miley is old beyond her years and that’s probably why she has such a grown-up approach to relationships,” explains a source close to the singer and actress.
“She is back with Liam and more smitten than ever. She’s even spoken about marriage. She knows she’s too young but she wants commitment.”
Cyrus, 17, has previously spoken of her love for Aussie hunk Hemsworth.
“He opened the door for me,” she said earlier this year. “I was like, ‘I have been in Los Angeles for three years and I don’t think any guy has actually opened the door for me.’
“I was like, ‘Wow, that is super impressive’. I actually turned to the director and said, ‘He’s got the job, he’s hot and he opened the door. Excellent.’ ”
"Who Owns My Heart" Music Video Details
The music video will be presented by E! world wide, as Can't Be Tamed was, although, Who Owns My Heart was considered as a European single.
Rock Mafia said that they can not say the exact premiere date of the video. But, they did say that it's either the 23rd of September or the 1st of October. The second date, October 1st, is probably the right one but there's no confirmation yet.

LL Cool J Likes 'Party In The USA'

At one point Nina says: "Daddy, I love Miley Cyrus. What's your favourite song of hers?" Cool J — real name James Todd Smith — says: "Party in the USA. It's a real fun song. I just wish my name were in it."

Miley & Liam Cuddle Over Sushi
Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth are making up for lost time. Since reuniting, the couple has been spreading their rekindled romance across Los Angeles. RadarOnline.com has the details from their latest loved-up meeting.
On Thursday night, the duo stopped in at hip eatery Katsuya in Brentwood.
Miley and Liam “looked so in love” a source says. They cuddled on the couch of the restaurant’s Dragon Room as their friends entertained themselves.
In between “whispering sweet nothings in Liam’s ear,” Miley indulged in some milk and cookies.
Clearly learning from their photographed make-out session earlier in the week, the couple avoided waiting paparazzi by sneaking out through the back of the restaurant.
Miley Cyrus Allegedly Hits, Runs ... But Hit-and-Run?
Miley Cyrus banged up her mom's Mercedes-Benz SUV, totaled another car and then left the scene ... according to the alleged victim's attorney.
The owner of the other car -- a Los Angeles restaurant parking attendant -- claims Hannah Montana herself smacked into his parked car. We spoke to his attorney, Mauro Fiore, who says Miley claimed the white Benz she was driving belonged to her BF ... but we checked and it's actually registered to her mom.
Fiore says Miley left her phone number with the parking attendant -- whose '91 Camry was totaled according to Fiore -- and then sped off. The attendant didn't file a police report at the time -- but his lawyer says he plans to do so today.
As for whether Miley's actions constitute a hit-and-run ... police tell us, hypothetically speaking, it doesn't because she left contact information with the alleged victim.
Miley's rep had no comment.

Miley Cyrus’ Voice Causes Fan To Shake Uncontrollably
Miley Cyrus is used to fans shaking with excitement when they see her, but one Florida girl just wishes her body would stop.
The 12-year-old Florida pre-teen has been diagnosed with reflex epilepsy, meaning she suffered up to 30 seizures a day. What triggered these episodes? Low baritone sounds, like dogs barking and a certain Hannah Montana song.
Dr. Paul R. Carney, a pediatric neurologist and professor at the University of Florida, doesn’t remember which Hannah hit set off the seizures, but he’s treated the girl with medicine and now she only has about one seizure per week.
“Her prognosis is actually good,” her doctor says. “In a lot of people, these seizures go away over time.”
Does that mean she can safely blast “Hoedown Throwdown” once again? Probably not, but missing out on Hannah songs won’t be a biggie — the 12-year-old isn’t a fan of Miley Cyrus’ former alter-ego any longer.
Miley Cyrus Filming A Commercial
Miley Cyrus was getting down to work on a new project yesterday afternoon(Sept 16th), filming a commercial in Los Angeles. She was joined by her mother Tish & joked around with her makeup artist in between takes as the paparazzi looked on.
Intruder Hauled off by Cops at Miley Cyrus' House
An unwanted visitor at Miley Cyrus' house in the San Fernando Valley was unceremoniously placed in the back of a police car earlier this week.
It appears the dude was lurking around the house. It is now cleared up that it was a curious 14-year-old boy, not a paparazzi or a dangerous stalker.
Although cops place the guy in the back of the patrol car, it appears they did not cuff him. But it doesn't seem too serious, because the officers cracked a smile as they drove away.

Miley Cyrus Makes 'Guinness World Records 2011'
Lady Gaga, Jay-Z, Beyoncé, Michael Jackson, and Miley Cyrus are among the musical performers to earn a spot in the 2011 edition of Guinness World Records, out worldwide on September 16.
Lady Gaga earns two records in the new book, which is based on records broken within the 2009 calendar year. The pop star takes the post for "Most Searched-For Female" as recorded by Google, a record held by Sarah Palin in the 2010 edition, and replaces Oasis's 1996 record for "Most Weeks On UK Chart In Any Year," with her music spending a total of 154 weeks on the chart.
Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter and Beyoncé Knowles earned the title for the year's biggest "Power Couple," having earned a collective record-breaking $122 million through June 2009.
Teen pop singer Miley Cyrus enters the book as the "Most Charted Teenager" following her 29th US Billboard Hot 100 chart entry on November 7, 2009 with "Party in the USA."
Michael Jackson became the year's "Most Searched-For Male" after fans took to the internet following his death in 2009. A page in the new edition is devoted to the pop star, who reportedly received eight records over his lifetime for chart achievements, album sales, earnings, and charity donations.
First published in 1955, the Guinness World Records book is published in more than 100 countries and 25 languages and is a regular best-seller, with more than 3 million copies sold annually across the globe.
Demi Lovato Planning On Making Music With Miley
Teen sensations Demi Lovato and Miley Cyrus have been BFFs for years, but now that they are both breaking out of their Disney molds, Demi tells HollywoodLife.com exclusively she’s got some serious plans to work with her bestie!
“I would love to collaborate with [Miley]. We both would,” Demi, 18, told us during a phone interview. “It would be really cool.”
Although both girls have similarly grown up and come into their own since getting their big breaks on the Disney Channel, Demi says she no longer gets compared to her 17-year-old pal.
“I don’t really get a lot of that anymore,” she said. “I feel like we kind of both hold our own when we’re on stage, when we record…we do our own thing.”
That said, Demi is still impressed by Miley’s achievements and is flattered when fans put them in the same boat.
“It’s a compliment because she’s awesome and I love her to death,” she gushed.

Miley Cyrus Was Not Told To Pull Over By Cops
It looks like some outlets really got their lines crossed on this one.
After Miley Cyrus was photographed in her car on Monday, RadarOnline claimed the singer had been “pulled over by a cop for talking on her cell phone while driving.”
According to the site, Cyrus “was stopped for violating the California law” against such activity.
Immediately, bloggers like Perez Hilton crowed that a police cruiser “pulled her ass over.”
“Whoever you were talking to and whatever it was about, it can wait until you are parked, BB!” scolded Perez.
Well, Gossip Cop actually does know the “who” and the “what” of Cyrus’ phone call… and the reports are flat out wrong about cops pulling over Cyrus.
Cyrus, who was recently spotted making out with Liam Hemsworth in a parked car, was also parked when she was snapped on Monday.
And she had not been “pulled over” by police for chatting.
A rep for Cyrus tells Gossip Cop that she was calling her security team because paparazzi were mobbing her, and that the cops came to her assistance.
Cyrus wasn’t making the roads unsafe — but the photographers who swarmed her for a few quick photos definitely were.

Miley Cyrus Back Together With Liam?
Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth are dating again, a source told People. They spent some time at Cyrus' Toluca Lake house before going to Panera Bread and Starbucks: 'Miley and Liam kept smiling and seemed to really enjoy their afternoon together. They acted like they had missed each other, kept chatting and seemed to be catching up. They definitely seemed like a couple again.'
'Since Miley returned to LA from Europe earlier in the week, she has acted a bit tired and worn out. With Liam back in her life on Saturday, she acted totally different and, instead, seemed very happy. It looked like Miley and Liam had never been apart, and they were back into their old routine.'

Miley Cyrus Interview About 'The Last Song' & Growing Up
Favourite teen sensation Miley Cyrus has walked away from her previous roles to embrace a new coming of age.
For her first adult role in The Last Song, she shares a steamy on-screen romance with co-star and ex boyfriend Liam Hemsworth.
“That kiss definitely triggered something,” says Miley, who had to stand on a box for some of her scenes with 6ft 4in Aussie Liam, 20.
“Love makes you feel beautiful and it makes you feel good about yourself.
Miley – the daughter of singer Billy Ray Cyrus - plays a teen who reluctantly leaves home in New York to spend the summer with her estranged father in a small Southern beach town, where she unexpectedly finds romance. Author Nicholas Sparks wrote the screenplay especially for her.
As she says: “It felt really cool. In fact, I was blown away. I said to Nicholas: ‘I like animals. I like music. I like hot Australians.’ I owe Nicholas, big time.”
The movie centres on a harrowing death within a family. There, Miley drew on personal experience.
“It was hard because certain scenes made me think about the time that I lost my best friend. When she passed away a while ago, I remember moments when I couldn’t breathe and I felt sick.
“I couldn’t even switch on the TV because I couldn’t think of anything else. I was on tour at the time and she was really young, so it was a real shock to me. It was way too early for her to go.
“You’re so hurt that you push everything away – and that’s exactly what my character does in the movie. That scene made me think about things I have been through in my life and I was able to put those sad feelings into something good. Everyone goes through a period where they lose a friend or a family member and I didn’t want to sugar coat the emotions. I wanted to keep it as real as possible.”
The film, she says, also made her appreciate her own family more. “I learned to never let a day go by without telling my family that I love them. I don’t know what I’d do if anything happened to my parents. My heart hurts just thinking about it.”
Miley, now 17, caught the eye of Disney Channel producers four years ago when they cast her as the star of TV series Hannah Montana, playing a charming schoolgirl who just happened to lead a double life as a pop queen.
The show became an instant hit and - by playing a teen idol - Miley won teen idol status herself. Her album of the soundtrack sold nearly five million copies worldwide and she signed a four-album deal with Disney’s Hollywood Records.
But The Last Song marks a fresh start for Miley: the final series of Hannah Montana is on television now.
She says: “As a new chapter of movies is beginning in my life, another chapter of television is ending. It’s weird to be leaving my security blanket behind, but it’s also exciting to get involved with different movies. I’m very happy to be where I am today.” Miley is keen to embrace her emerging image as a grown-up actress.
“It feels good. For the last five years, with Hannah Montana, everyone would tell me what to do. Now, it’s up to me. I get to think about what is right in my career and I can choose to go in my own direction.
“I have to be careful that I don’t lose who I am. I still want my fans to know me, but I also want to extend my audience. I want to continue to do what I love, but I also want to give myself new challenges. I don’t want to play the same person over and over again.”
But fame – and maturity - have come at a price.
“I’m always thinking, ‘Are you going to tell my secrets? It’s tough. When I was younger, I would trust everyone and I’d tell anyone my life story in a heartbeat. I find it very hard to trust people now. I definitely protect myself a little more.
“When people do sweet things for me, I start to think things like, ‘OK, what do you want? Are you doing this because you love me or because you need something?’ I’m a little hard. But that’s just the way my life is.”
John Cena guest stars on 'Hannah Montana'
Singer/actress Miley Cyrus has her fair share of devoted fans, but as the WWE Universe can surely attest, so does John Cena. What will happen when these two international icons collide? Find out by tuning into Disney Channel's Hannah Montana this Sunday night at 8/7 CT, when Cena guest stars on the wildly popular series.

Miley Cyrus Has A "Flirty" Relationship With Douglas Booth
Freshly single, always sassy Miley Cyrus feels really comfortable around her costars. First, there were the shots of her semi-straddling fellow LOL cast member Adam Sevani and now rumors are swirling that Cyrus is getting frisky with her other costar Douglas Booth.
So what’s the deal?
“She’s not dating anyone,” says a close Cyrus source.
Part of the reason Miley broke it off with yummy Liam Hemsworth was because she didn’t want to settle down yet, so settling down she is not.
“Miley is single,” emphasizes our insider.
Although Booth and Miley spent the last three or so months shooting the film in Detroit and last week in Paris, sources on the film say that Miley and Booth are simply friends.
So where did the rumors start?
Well, according to a knowing onset spy, Booth (although he came to LOL firmly telling everyone he had a girlfriend) has definitely acted like he has “a crush” on the megastar and that the two teens (he’s 18, she’s 17) have a “flirty” relationship.
Get it, girl! We all know what “friends” means in teen lingo. You’re fresh on the market babe, have some fun!
But, unfortunately for Douglas, Cyrus is going into work mode now.
LOL just wrapped production Tuesday and now Miley is due to hit the road in Europe next month to promote her new single, “Who Owns My Heart.”
So, for now, it appears Miley’s career owns her heart…but we doubt that will stop her from having some fun on the side, non?
