The Miley Cyrus Vanity Fair photo

On April 25, 2008, the televised entertainment program Entertainment Tonight reported that Cyrus had posed topless for a photo shoot with Vanity Fair. The photo, and subsequently released behind-the-scenes photos, show Cyrus with her bare back exposed but her front covered with a bedsheet. The photo shoot was taken by photographer Annie Leibovitz. The full photograph was published with an accompanying story on The New York Times' website on April 27, 2008. On April 29, 2008, The New York Times clarified that though the pictures left an impression that she was bare-breasted, Cyrus was wrapped in a bedsheet and was actually not topless. Some parents expressed outrage at the nature of the photograph, which a Disney spokesperson described as "a situation [that] was created to deliberately manipulate a 15-year-old in order to sell magazines."
In response to the internet circulation of the photo and ensuing media attention, Cyrus released a statement of apology on April 27:
"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 apologize to my fans who I care so deeply about."
The photographer Annie Leibovitz also released a statement:
"I'm sorry that my portrait of Miley has been misinterpreted. The photograph is a simple, classic portrait, shot with very little makeup, and I think it is very beautiful."
On April 28, 2008, Vanity Fair published their full interview and photo shoot with Cyrus and her father Billy Ray Cyrus, as well as the behind-the-scenes photographs, on their website. According to the interview, Cyrus' parents and/or minders were present during the entire duration of the photo shoot. The idea to pose with the sheets on was suggested by Annie Liebovitz. When asked if she were "anxious" about the pose, Cyrus stated to interviewer Bruce Handy:
“No, I mean I had a big blanket on. And I thought, This looks pretty, and really natural. I think it’s really artsy. It wasn’t in a skanky way.… And you can’t say no to Annie. She’s so cute. She gets this puppy-dog look and you’re like, okay.”

Photos of Miley from Extreme Makeover

Miley on Extreme Makeover

On February 10th , there's going to be a special two-hour edition of Extreme Makever: Home Edition, and Miley's going to appear on it! The family that received the house makeover were sent on a vacation that included going to the San Diego concert and having a surprise meeting with Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers! I will add some promos from it, and don't forget to watch it on Sunday, February 10th @ 8/7c on ABC!

Miley Kissed Nick (Cheek)

It's true. Miley did kiss Nick - on the cheek. She did it in about two concerts. It was like the cheek kiss had been practiced so many times. You mostly didn't even notice. I didn't until I watched the videos about three times. It's ok with me. I know that Miley and Nick are just friends and Nick acted so calm when the kisses happened. It was like it happened all the time. I still believe that Nick and Miley are just friends, do you?

Body Double Proof!

In January 2008, a video surfaced on Youtube which showed Cyrus perfoming as Hannah Montana on her Best of Both Worlds Tour. The video shows Hannah being ushered off the stage via a trap door and being replaced by another girl who is dressed like her. The body-double holds the microphone and lip-syncs the rest of the song. On January 11, 2008, Cyrus' publicist claimed that the video was not fake and confirmed that the body double was actually being used throughout the tour. The public relation firm representing Cyrus stated: "....a body double appears approximately one to two minutes prior to the end of the song in order to allow Miley to remove the Hannah wig and costume and transform into Miley for her solo set. Other than during this very brief transitional moment in the show, Miley performs live during the entirety of both the Hannah and Miley segments of the concert."

Church

When interviewed by Parade, Miley added that she attends church regularly with her family. In an interview to Christianity Today, Billy Ray said, "Being Christian, we believe in heaven" and "We also had a great church, and when you give up your church, your pastor, and the community you are involved in, you're making a big sacrifice. Let's face it, Hollywood is a completely different environment than Franklin, Tennessee.

Silly/Funny Pictures of Miley/Hannah

Surprise...!

Surprise! There it is everyone! Right in the middle of the banner above. That is not Miley. It is the body double! You can tell becuase the face and eyes are different. If you read my eariler article: Busted.....Miley Cyrus, you would know what I am talking about. To transform from Hannah to Miley or Miley to Hannah Miley uses a body double to quickly change to and from. The picture above is proof. I don't think Miley/Hannah's doing anything wrong. I mean she can't just magically appear to be Hannah and Miley. That is totally impossible! I still believe in Miley and her great singing voice. I still am a true Hannah/Miley fan! I hope you are too.

Has fame changed Miley?

Sure, she's a ginormous star now, but two years ago when we sat down with Miley for the second time, she was a relative newcomer. Here's a snippet of our conversation with her. What do you think? Has she changed a lot since her show's become so successful or is she still the same old down-home girl?

TEEN: Do you have anything in common with Miley Stewart and Hannah Montana?

Miley: Yes, well, since we have the same name it's really easy to relate. But even Hannah Montana and me personally are a lot alike, because even with the show going on, it's really not something that I go around talking about because I want my friends to be my friends, and that’s all Hannah Montana wants, too. So I think my characters Miley Stewart and Hannah Montana and then me, Miley Cyrus, we’re all a lot alike.
TEEN: How have your friends reacted to your success?

Miley: It's kind of crazy, but I’ve always performed for my friends. I’ve never been one to just sit down and be calm and watch movies. I’ve always kind of been the one entertaining them all of the time. I was always singing. When we would go on trips with my cheerleading team, we would always sing and do karaoke. So I’ve always been performing. My true friends are really happy for me.
TEEN: Has your dad given you any advice on your career?

Miley: Mostly, even when I was auditioning, he just wants me to have fun with it. It's not something where I’m just following in his footsteps, it's something that I’m really passionate about. It's still an art to us. It's something we do that we enjoy, it's not really even business now. Being on a kids' show, it's all kids and you’re all really close, you’re like a family. It makes it a lot easier. It's fun and you get to do everything you love and have people by your side encouraging you. It's great working beside my dad; I can always be like, “Daddy, can you help me with this?” It makes it a lot easier on us personally, and on the show it makes it so much easier.
TEEN: What’s a typical day on the show like?

Miley: It's never typical — it's really crazy! With doing lines, and then off-camera and getting everything down and us just being crazy — it's all just really insane, but it's really fun, too.
TEEN: Were you nervous when you filmed the pilot?

Miley: It's really just fun for me, so I wasn’t really nervous. But since I’m the one who had less experience than anyone on this show, mostly I was used to doing theater, which is a lot like sitcoms because you move around a lot; it's physical comedy. I was a little nervous, like, “Well, what if I don’t get all my lines down?” But if there’s something you’re not comfortable with, they’re really good about just running through it in your spare time, or they’ll go ahead and change it and give you something that feels more personal, because all of our characters are really personal and like us.
TEEN: Do you have a career role model?

Miley: I love Hilary Duff, especially because she and I are a lot alike as I'm starting out. She was about the same age as me when she came to Disney. She hadn’t done as much; basically she was at the same stage as I was. It's good to see that you’ve got to start somewhere, and it's so great to start on Disney because everyone gets so close and it's all kids, which makes you feel more comfortable.
