Miley Cyrus has won a court battle over a racially-insensitive photo that sparked criticism for the teen starlet earlier this year.
On Friday, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Robert Hess dismissed a $4 billion lawsuit filed against the star of Disney’s Hannah Montana by a disgruntled Los Angeles woman.
Last winter, Lucie Kim sued Miley on behalf of L.A.’s Asian-American citizens after a picture of the singer and her teen cohorts making a “slanty eyes” gesture surfaced online in February. Although, the Cyrus camp ultimately issued a public apology for Miley’s actions, Kim alleged that the photo mocked Asians and insisted she was left emotionally distressed after viewing the snap.
Miley Cyrus has not confirmed whether her relationship with her Last Song co-star Liam Hemsworth is strictly platonic or as red-hot as rumor has it – but the young star — who turns 17 on Monday — says whatever the nature of their friendship is will be staying “very DL.” Read the rest of this entry »
The driver of a Miley Cyrus tour bus was killed Friday when the bus overturned on a rural Virginia road, but the 16-year-old Hannah Montana star wasn’t on board, Virginia State Police said.
Sgt. Thomas Molnar says the bus was traveling along with three other buses (carrying members of Miley’s production crew ) southbound on Interstate I-85 just south of Petersburg, VA, when it ran off the left side of the road, struck an embankment, and overturned. The accident occurred around 8:15AM in Dinwiddie County, about 40 miles south of Richmond. Speed and weather weren’t considered factors.
The driver, William G. Douglas, 53, of Austin, Texas, died at the scene and The Cyrus Family is speaking out about the fatal accident and the driver they affectionately dubbed “Uncle Bill.” Read the rest of this entry »
One person was killed and another seriously injured when a tour bus belonging to Disney starlet Miley Cyrus overturned on Interstate 85 in rural Dinwiddie County, Virginia early Friday.
Cyrus was not on board at the time of the crash.
The accident happened on I-85 south near mile marker 56 in Dinwiddie County, that’s about 45-minutes south of Richmond, Virginia. There were 15 passengers on the bus when it careened out of control and flipped on its side Friday morning, according to Virginia State Police officials. Miley was reportedly on a bus that was part of a 4-vehicle caravan, which included the bus that overturned. The driver of the bus was killed on impact, but authorities are withholding that person’s name pending notification of their next of kin.
Police investigators say the roads were slick from heavy rainfall Thursday evening, but they’ve not yet determined the cause of the accident.
According Miley’s website, the singer/actress is scheduled to perform in Greensboro, N.C. on Sunday.
Miley Cyrus dressed up as Julia Roberts for a B-Day celebration in the Big Apple Wednesday night. The star of Disney’s Hannah Montanadressed in an elegant red frock — patterned after the one made famous by Julia Roberts’ hooker alter ego “Vivian” in the hit 1990 film Pretty Woman — for an ’80s-themed party celebrating her 17th birthday.
Miley Cyrus and Lindsay Lohan are going toe-to-toe in a battle to voice Dorothy in John Boorman’s upcoming CG-animated update of the 1939 motion picture classic The Wizard of Oz, ZackTaylor.ca is reporting. Boorman’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is scheduled for a summer 2010 release and will deviate greatly from the signature song-and-dance slant featured in the original Oz.
Hey guys, have you had the chance to check out the new full length trailer for Miley Cyrus’ first non-Disney film, The Last Song?
Word is this the movie where the 16-year-old actress met and enjoyed a fling with on-screen love interest Liam Hemsworth.
In the coming-of-age movie, based on the popular book by Nicholas Sparks, Miley plays Ronnie, a gifted by troubled teen girl who reconnects with her estranged dad (Greg Kinnear) and falls in love during a summer vacation on Tybee Island, Georgia.
Miley Cyrus may be the most famous teenager on the Planet — but that doesn’t mean she’s enamored with the teen craze that is The Twilight Saga. Apparently, Twitter isn’t the only pop culture trend Disney’s Hannah Montana can’t be bothered with.
Action Starts @ 3:36……
In an interview with Nikolina from Canton, Ohio’s Q92 earlier this week, the pop sensation revealed that she is — Brace Yourselves – a Twilight Hater. (Shudder…)
“Not into it,” Miley replied dryly when asked if she is as excited as every other 16-year-old girl in America over the showdown between Team Edward and Team Jacob in the latest Twilight film, New Moon. “I could care less. I’ve never seen it and nor will I ever,” she remarked. Read the rest of this entry »
Is Miley the new Justin? Critically-acclaimed producer Timbaland sure thinks so!
Although Tim has worked with some of the most talented musicians in the industry today — including Mariah Carey, Jay-Z, Missy, Keri Hilson, and Nelly Furtado — the Virginia native was quite taken with television’s Hannah Montana, who he collaborated with for his new album, Shock Value II. He says: “Man, she’s gonna be like Justin [Timberlake]. She comes from that same musical background, where she’s just got it. Her voice is just there. The best way to put it is she’s special. When I worked with her, I was very impressed. I was like, ‘Whoa.’”
Don’t let the name dropping fool you — Miley Cyrus is no fan of Hova. In a new interview, the Teen Queen claims that despite referencing Jay-Z in the first verse of her hit single “Party In The USA,” she’s never actually heard a song by the Grammy-winning rapper, whose career spans more than decade. So what gives?
Apparently, Miles doesn’t “listen to pop music.”
Perhaps we’re missing something here, but doesn’t she sing pop music? And sure hip-hop isn’t as rugged as it was during the Biggie/Pac era, but Lil Wayne qualifies as a pop star now? Read the rest of this entry »
