Miley CyrusMiley Cyrus: What a fake!OK, I'm not the sharpest pencil in the backpack, so maybe that's why I don't get what the fuss is over this news of deception perpetrated by Miley Cyrus, the 15-year-old star of Disney Channel's Hannah Montana. I mean, I wanted to be outraged and self-righteous when I heard and read the media buzz about another entitled child star doing something unsavory. But after learning what the crime was, I couldn't even muster a disapproving frown or a finger-wagging!
If you haven't heard by now, Cyrus, while performing on stage as her alter ego Hannah Montana, was captured on video by a fan. The video shows Cyrus being whisked offstage while a stand-in skips and dances and prances around onstage to give Cyrus additional time to change from the character into her real self. Of course, my first thought was, "Hold up! Isn't it illegal to videotape a concert? Arrest that fan!" Anyway, Cyrus' representatives quickly confirmed that yes, a "production element" is incorporated into the show to facilitate a quicker costume change. Here's the apparent offense: … continue reading Submitted on January 16, 2008 at 5:08 pm Who Thought THAT Was a Good Idea? Episode 9We're only a week into 2008 and there's already plenty of fodder for our weekly countdown of of dumb entertainment and celebrity news stories — from bad Cashmere Mafia headlines, to an idiotic Texas mom, to teenage slumber parties being turned into lesbian orgies.
And I'll give you $10 (not really) if you can correctly guess what product these women are hawking in this commercial (but no fair guessing if you already know!):
The #1 worst celebrity/entertainment news of the week? You'll just have to watch to find out... … continue reading Submitted on January 7, 2008 at 2:06 pm Choicest Bits: Teen Choice Awards picturesLast night’s Teen Choice Awards could have been called the More Evidence That High School Musical Is Taking Over the Universe Awards. But I guess that would be too long to fit on the trophies. While South of Nowhere lost the Choice Breakout TV show award to Heroes, fellow AfterEllen.com reader favorite Degrassi won the Choice Summer TV award. See the complete list of winners here. In the interest of full disclosure, I’ll admit that I did not watch the show. I’m so far out of the teen demographic that to tune in would have been mildly creepy. However, I have no problem scanning the pictures afterward. Voyeurism, journalism — it’s a thin line. And with that, I give you my completely unprofessional, randomly snarky thoughts on the stars of the Teen Choice Awards. Hilary Duff and Eve: Is this too much back and front for these ladies to be showing at a show for teenagers, or am I just a being a prude? Ashley Jensen and America Ferrera: These two are causing me to have some decidedly R-rated thoughts during an entirely PG-rated show. Submitted on August 27, 2007 at 11:28 am Miley Cyrus, normal teenage starSince its debut in 2006, Disney's mega-hit show Hannah Montana has been a contender in the TV, music and movie industries, and its young star, 14-year-old Miley Cyrus, is being hyped as an Annette Funicello.
If you don't know the show, here's a primer. "Hannah Montana" is the stage name and secret identity of Miley Stewart, who is a normal girl by day, a pop singing sensation by night. Miley Stewart is played by Miley Cyrus (yep, daughter of Billy Ray). The episodes mix teenage life lesson with rock concert. … continue reading Submitted on July 11, 2007 at 2:02 pm |
