    EVERYONE knows why Miley Cyrus is famous. If the sign said “Kim Kardashian”, it would have made sense…

    Simple… She’s famous because of Disney. She’s one of the most common Google searches because of everything she’s done (and shown) AFTER Disney.

    And it certainly didn’t start with her/them – Fabian wasn’t accused of being a good singer.

    C’mon guys… Miley is famous because of her dad. (Did everyone forget Billy Ray Cyrus and “Achy Breaky Heart” that quickly?)

    I am unfamiliar with the Hannah Montana show and I did not see the twerking event, but “Wrecking Ball” is an interesting and reasonably well-sung recording. A few more like that, and she could have a worthy career.

    Don’t hold back. Tell us what you really think !Seriously, good comments. A couple of years ago, I wrote an article about the destructive nature of the Disney packaging machine, dating back to the original Mickey Mouse Club to the current Disney products. It was not a puff piece, nor terribly flattering to " The Mouse ".Needless to say, I am not very popular in the Wonderful World of Disney – for that I am grateful !

    What a waste it would be to climb a peak just to ask such a dumb question of someone who is supposed to be a source of great wisdom! Then again, since there are steps to this guru instead of a steep climb, maybe this guru is as second-rate as his ‘frequently asked question’….

    “…A generation ago, there were some barriers … …’now there are none.” <- So says every generation at some point. Marilyn Manson, Sinead O’Connor, David Bowie, Michael Jackson, Madonna, and Elvis have all been accused of similar degradations of society – Miley is hardly the most shocking of the bunch. Personally, I understand why she’s famous . . she sings, she dances, she acts, and her father was famous – whether or not she’s talented is open for debate. The celebrities I don’t get are ones like Snooki and Paris Hilton. They do what exactly??

    Her Daddy, Billy Ray, had flash of fame with country song “Achy Breaky Heart” – Which led to her getting hired by Disney (had to have some leverage?) – Which later led to her desire to break from “good girl” Disney image – Which has led to her young adult train wreck of a life – AND eveyone loves to watch a good train wreck. . .

    For reasons of my own security and anonymity, I will respectfully decline from giving out that link – a little research might uncover it – I chose not to reveal too much of myself on these sites.I will refer you to an excellent editorial on the subject by Henry Gireoux:How Disney Magic and the Corporate Media Shape Youth Identity in the Digital AgeSunday, 21 August 2011 06:30By Henry A Giroux, Truthout | Op-Edwhich I think you’ll find well researched and enlightening ( or frightening, depending on your perspective. )

    Hannah Montana was a fun show, and the twerking video is delightful sexy clowning. I prefer slutty chicks. I myself haven’t had television for nearly 8 years. I have a DVD player and the Internet which is enough for me. My favourite DVD programs include Buffy the Vampire Slayer and other scifi/fantasy serials.

    I’ve never watched the Kardashian show, but I’ve seen still pics and they’re nice to look at. Same with Snooki. I used to live among beach people who looked alot like these celebs, and twerked in front of their own children at our community gatherings (where communal love was in the air), but were sensible, well adjusted people, in many cases had doctor or lawyer as day job. Google “Eeyore’s Birthday in Austin (Texas)” and “Oregon Country Fair.”

    Unlike many “celebrities” who are famous for being famous and making sex tapes, Miley started on a highly popular TV show and can sing and act. (not saying how well, but she does and can.)

    At least Miley has a star daddy and spent a bit of time doing nothing on the Disney Channel in front of the camera.

    What I wanna know is who the heck is Kim Kardashian and why does anybody give a squat about what she does?

    I know she’s famous , but that alone does not mean that she or her Dad are popular with everyone who listens to “music” whatever the definition is today.

    She and the others like her are famous because IDIOTS who by their albums or watch them on T.V. make them famous.
