Of all things. Miley Cyrus really? Really!?
Yes.
Why!? but why?!!!!
Because she is a product of the new music industry.
She is everything that the old guard hates and loves at the same time.
Miley Cyrus is a blueprint for the future.
But what kind of future?
As you many already know Miley Cyrus grew to fame because of hit television show Hannah Montana. Disney produced Hannah Montana and was/is grooming Miley Cyrus to be there next big thing.
The reason I call Hanna Montana the blueprint for the future is becuase music is only one part of her empire. She is the the embodiement of the 360 deal. Disney owns this girl. (which is possibly why she’s acting out)
Merchandising and Licensing is where Hanna Montana makes her cash. Not Music.
And that is why Miley Cyrus is a blueprint for the future (at least for now).

“Blueprint for the future” indeed. I think that Disney is on to a clever marketing concept in which a talented child performer is cultivated in a television show, and then slowly marketed into a singer, followed by wave after wave of commercialism and marketing. This will only work as long as the individual being marketed has legitimate talent which, to Miley’s credit, she has.
Interesting, point mal. I just think that Hannah and Miley are merged together so perfectly that Hannah will never be disassociated from Miley. But we’ll see. Let me know if you think anyone will over throw the Cyrus empire.

remember that HANNAH is a fictional character and Miley is a real person. you already see Miley peeling off the HANNAH cloak to becomre her own person, and Ms Cyrus is not “owned” by Disney. You’ll probably see another actor become HANNAH at some point as the Disney company will refuse to let this franchise die.
