What Would You Do For “Hannah Montana” Tickets?

I love my daughter more than words could possibly express. There is nothing I wouldn’t do for her… except, perhaps, spend 144 hours hugging a statute of “Hannah Montana.” Actually, I’d probably do that too. Thankfully, though, I haven’t been put in that position. Which is more than can be said for Jody Powell. The 35-year-old soon-to-be step father of a die-hard “Hannah Montana” fan hung on to a 12-foot statue of “Hannah Montana” for the better part of six days to win tickets to a sold-out concert by Miley Cyrus, star of the Disney Channel TV series. The Tampa … Continue reading

Hannah Montana – Teen TV Review

Hannah Montana is a half hour comedy show on the Disney Channel. The star of the show is Miley Cyrus as Hannah. Miley/Hannah is also a real life star. She currently has two cd’s on the top 40 list. Her father on the show is her real life father, and country music star, Billy Ray Cyrus. One of the things I like the most about this show is that the father actually has some sense, and he’s involved in the lives of his children. He’s got some great southern sayings that make us all laugh. The premise of the show … Continue reading

Oh My… Miley! G-Rated Star Appears in PG-13 Photos

So, by now I’m sure you are well aware of the whole Miley Cyrus provocative photo brouhaha. For those of you who have been blissfully living in a media-free world allow me to give you an update: The 15-year-old squeaky-clean Disney star might want to stay away from digital cameras for a while. The teen is currently embroiled in two front-page controversies both of which involve racy pictures of her. Last week the singer-actress went on the defensive when “playfully provocative” photos of her posing on her ex-boyfriend’s lap showed up on the Internet. (Cyrus called them “silly.”) In one … Continue reading

The Cheetah Girls (2003)

Sabrina Bryan was my favorite competitor in this last season of “Dancing with the Stars.” I knew she was a Cheetah Girl, but to be honest, all I really knew was that the Cheetah Girls were some kind of girl group. They’ve certainly created quite the sensation amongst the preteen set, so I decided I’d watch this movie and see what the fuss was about. Raven stars as Galleria (yeah, that’s right) a teenager who writes music. Together with her friends Aqua (Kiely Williams), Chanel (Adrienne Bailon), and Dorinda (Sabrina Bryan) they are the Cheetah Girls, a band that sings … Continue reading

Hot Concert Acts Sell Out in Seconds

Thirty-eight seconds to be exact. That’s right; in less time than it takes to warm up a cup of coffee tickets for the Spice Girls London reunion show completely sold out. And, wait until you find out how long it took for Miley Cyrus’ concerts to sell out. More on “Hannah Montana” later… let’s discuss those spicy Brits first. The all-girl group hasn’t performed together in nearly a decade (Geri Halliwel, a.k.a. “Ginger Spice,” quit, citing “differences in 1998), but who knew their popularity would rival acts such U2, Michael Jackson and Bruce Springsteen (all who remain in the record … Continue reading
