Miley Cyrus Pens Autobiography At 15!
Miley Cyrus Is In Love with British Boys
Billy Ray Cyrus may have trouble getting his daughter, Miley, to come home to the states.
Pop sensation Miley Cyrus is loving London, or perhaps, rather, the boys in London.
"I've already fallen in love with 20 guys since I've been here," said Cyrus to BBC reporters at a Switch Live gig.
"The accents sound so intelligent. I love the way the guys are so classy and wear trenchcoats," the 15-year-old Hannah Montana star said.
"I've phoned my dad and told him not to expect me home. I want to live here," Cyrus said.
Cyrus played her first concert in the U.K. at London’s Hammersmith Apollo. She appeared with Ne-Yo and Pete Wentz's Fall Out Boy.
British critics liked the American diva.
"Miley's appeal is far more than her catchy pop songs, rock chick image and contagious grin. [She] showed off a voice far more mature than her . . . years," wrote a reporter in the Sun newspaper.
Miley Cyrus And Ashley Tisdale’s BFF Rings
In our never-ending quest to bring our readers entertainment news in innovatively progressive ways (and also to fill space within a sparsely detailed report…like breadcrumbs in a meatloaf) we’ve decided to combine a recent story regarding Miley Cyrus and Ashley Tisdale’s BFF rings with an update on the world economy. Enjoy!
According to Ok! Magazine, “Hannah Montana” star Miley Cyrus recently purchased two $1,417 red enamel Hidalgo horseshoe rings for her and her BFF, “Suite Life of Zack & Cody” star Ashley Tisdale.
According to New York University economist Nouriel Roubini, following the recent U.S. stock market collapse that has so far wiped out more than $6 trillion of wealth, a domino effect resulting in a worldwide “systemic financial meltdown” of advanced economies is already underway.
“Miley saw this Hidalgo ring and said to her mom, ‘OMG, I need to get one of these for Ashley,’” an unnamed pal of 15 year-old Cyrus’ told OK! Friday. “She asked to order two - one for her and Ashley because they both collect things with horseshoes on them!”
With Congress’ recent $700 billion bank bailout unsuccessful in restoring market confidence, and with the stock markets in Indonesia and Russia closed indefinitely, Roubini warns that unless the crippled American credit system can be revived, “one cannot rule out a systemic collapse and a global depression.”
“They’re really close,” the Ok! source adds, “and this is their little way to say ‘hi.’ With their crazy schedules, it’s how they stay connected.”
“It will take a significant change in leadership of economic policy,” Roubini adds, “and very radical, coordinated policy actions among all advanced and emerging market economies to avoid this economic and financial disaster."
Cyrus is expected to make a cameo appearance alongside Tisdale in the upcoming “High School Musical 3.”
Following the worst week ever for Wall Street, the retirement funds - as well as the job security - of millions of Americans, hang in the balance.

GOMEZ OFFERS JONAS/CYRUS SPLIT HINTS IN NEW SONG
Teen sensation SELENA GOMEZ has added a new twist to the NICK JONAS/Miley Cyrus break-up saga, suggesting the Jonas Brothers star is still smitten with his ex in a new song. In new tune I'm Sorry, Gomez sings about liking a guy who can't get over his ex. Selena tells teen magazine Twist, "It's about a boy I kind of fell for, but he couldn't let his ex-girlfriend go, and it was really difficult. And I felt, like, in a way, I wasn't good enough. "So the song is basically me saying that I'm sorry that it didn't work out or that she used to be who she was, but you have to let me in and you have to know that I'll do everything I can to make you happy and be the best I can be." Gomez has been romantically linked with the youngest Jonas brother throughout the summer (08), but both have denied they're dating.
Britney Spears Wins Video Of The Year -- And Other VMA Predictions, In Bigger Than The Sound
On The Record: Commence The Nonsense Picking a winner at the Video Music Awards is a lot like trying to comprehend Courtney Love's MySpace blog or explain this photo of Metallica's James Hetfield. It's impossible to do because it follows no discernable logic. From the ever-evolving field of categories (Ringtone of the Year, you will be missed) to the methods by which the nominees and winners are selected, the VMAs have managed to spin a wholly singular world for themselves in which reality does not always apply. And in the process, they've also created a legacy that makes writing things like "2006 Video of the Year: Panic at the Disco's 'I Write Sins Not Tragedies,' " and "multiple-award winner Ricky Martin" possible. Of course, it has also made for some fantastic things too — like some of the winners of Best Rap Video and Best New Artist. And this year, things are threatening to make even less sense than usual, because fans have done a lot of the picking (note: the Best New Artist poll is open until September 7), a move that has opened the awards to an even less reality-based realm: the world of online fandom. The results include things like Britney Spears — whose appearance at the VMAs was just announced — and the Pussycat Dolls landing Video of the Year nods, the Jonas Brothers and Tokio Hotel going head-to-head for Best Pop Video, and Danity Kane have as many nominations (two) as Rihanna and Mary J. Blige ... combined. When I looked at this year's list of VMA nominees, I was confused — so, naturally, that meant I had to write a column about it. And since I am a glutton for punishment, I decided to try the impossible: apply some logic and attempt to predict the winners of the 2008 Video Music Awards. Please note that I have no advance knowledge of any VMA winners. The way 2008 is shaping up, maybe we'll just have everyone win. BEST MALE VIDEO Nominees Chris Brown "With You" Lil Wayne "Lollipop" Flo Rida "Low" T.I. "No Matter What" Usher "Love in This Club" Logic Would Dictate: Since T.I. went to the trouble to make a solid, simple (and really pretty powerful) video, he'd be the one to take home the Moonman. But Illogically: Hey, Wayne's clip has half-naked dancers and a party bus in it! And it takes place in Vegas! And there's this one part where he sorta plays guitar, too! Plus he sold a million albums in a week! WOOOOOO! So, The Winner Is: I'm gonna say that substance trumps style here and T.I. comes out on top. Of course, that means I will be wrong and Flo Rida will win. Also, did you know that in 1985, Bruce Springsteen won this award? That thud you just heard was me slamming my head against my keyboard. BEST FEMALE VIDEO Nominees Mariah Carey "Touch My Body" Katy Perry "I Kissed a Girl" Rihanna "Take a Bow" Jordin Sparks "No Air" Britney Spears "Piece of Me" Logic Would Dictate: Mariah's album and Jordin's solo career aren't exactly setting the world on fire, and Britney Spears is barely known as a recording artist anymore, so that's 60 percent of the category eliminated right there. It's really a toss-up between Rih-Rih, who's arguably the hugest pop star in the world right now, and Katy Perry, who, based on the ubiquity of "I Kissed a Girl" (seriously, it's like a zombie at this point — it cannot and will not be stopped until it feasts on your brains) is quickly becoming the Jonathan Stewart of the VMAs: She's a definite sleeper pick. But Illogically: OMG, did you know Mariah and Britney have been nominated for something like 384 VMAs but neither of them has ever won an award?!?! These transgressions must be rectified! So, The Winner Is: I think Britney gets her win later in the night, and Rihanna makes too much sense here, so hey, let's just go ahead and give it to Katy Perry. She kissed a girl, after all. And she liked it! BEST DANCING IN A VIDEO Nominees Chris Brown "Forever" Danity Kane "Damaged" Madonna "4 Minutes" Ne-Yo "Closer" Pussycat Dolls "When I Grow Up" Logic Would Dictate: I'm still trying to figure out why this category isn't called Best Dance Video anymore. Quickly realizing that the question is moot, I'll move on to the begrudging confession that this is a pretty solid field, and realistically, four of the five noms have a legitimate shot at winning here (sorry Ne-Yo). Perhaps the sympathy vote swings to Madonna, if only because she somehow managed to avoid shattering her hip in "4 Minutes" (five minutes might be a different story ...) But Illogically: Chris Brown is hot! PCD and Danity Kane are hot! Everyone is hot! Advantage: Push. So, The Winner Is: In a pinch, I'll say PCD. One of them can stick her leg straight up in the air. Which one? Does it even matter? BEST ROCK VIDEO Nominees Fall Out Boy "Beat It" Foo Fighters "The Pretender" Linkin Park "Shadow of the Day" Paramore "CrushCrushCrush" Slipknot "Psychosocial" Logic Would Dictate: Slipknot rock way harder than any of the other nominees here (probably more than all of them combined) and they made a killer video (that could probably actually kill you), so they win going away. However, do not discount the Foos wrangling the grizzled old dude (read: over 30) vote ... er, who am I kidding? Over-30s don't vote in these things! But Illogically: FOB have Pete Wentz. Paramore have Hayley Williams. Linkin Park are arguably one of the 10 biggest rock acts on the planet (wait, that's actually logical). The Foo Fighters are old. Slipknot are too scary. So, The Winner Is: Paramore. They've blasted out of nowhere and a win here is icing on the cake. Also, it's about time a female-fronted band won this award. BEST HIP-HOP VIDEO Nominees Mary J. Blige "Just Fine" Lupe Fiasco "Superstar" Flo Rida "Low" Lil Wayne "Lollipop" Kanye West "Homecoming" Logic Would Dictate: Mary J's video is completely batsh-- crazy, so it would be awesome if she won. Kanye could win, if only because show producers are probably hoping to avoid a full-blown hostage situation backstage. Weezy is probably the biggest name in hip-hop right now, so it would make sense for him to take home the Moonman. Also, Lupe Fiasco's name-recognition doesn't come close to any of the others here, so he's out. But Illogically: Lupe is your favorite rapper's favorite rapper! He's the truest hip-hop cat in this category! He's got the cred and ... ah, who am I kidding? So, The Winner Is: Wayne. This is his moment, even though I am 85 percent sure he's not even aware that he's living in it. BEST POP VIDEO Nominees Danity Kane "Damaged" Jonas Brothers "Burnin' Up" Panic at the Disco "Nine in the Afternoon" Britney Spears "Piece of Me" Tokio Hotel "Ready, Set, Go!" Logic Would Dictate: By far the most heated category of the night, particularly if you're a 13-year-old girl or a cat-hair-coated shut-in, Best Pop is either gonna go to the squeaky clean Jonas boys or the follically fabulous Tokio Hotel. For they are the Highlanders of tween pop, and there can be no other way. But Illogically: Hey, Britney's in this category, and stranger things have happened. And the most illogical move would be to give this to Panic, so you can't count them out either. So, The Winner Is: The Jonas Brothers. The unstoppable, hormonally charged train rolls on — which is a shame, because Tokio Hotel's acceptance speech could've been the most amazing thing of all time. Have you ever seen a porcupine-boychild weep with joy? BEST NEW ARTIST Nominees Miley Cyrus "7 Things" Katy Perry "I Kissed a Girl" Jordin Sparks "No Air" Taylor Swift "Tears on My Guitar" Tokio Hotel "Ready, Set, Go!" Logic Would Dictate: Miley, Miley, Miley. And more Miley. She's a ginormous, borderline frightening global brand at this point, and I actually like her song, so she'd be the logical, smart choice. Although Tokio Hotel fans are beyond fanatical, and since online voting is determining BNA, they might actually be the favorites here. Taylor Swift is legitimately talented, but hey, don't hold it against her, voters! But Illogically: Jordin Sparks is a very nice, very sweet girl. She won "American Idol." People seem to like her. Her dad played in the NFL. So ... uh, did I mention Katy Perry likes kissing girls? So, The Winner Is: I'm saying Miley, but it could very well be Tokio, too. Regardless, tweenage hearts will be broken. VIDEO OF THE YEAR Nominees Chris Brown "Forever" Jonas Brothers "Burnin' Up" Pussycat Dolls "When I Grow Up" Britney Spears "Piece of Me" The Ting Tings "Shut Up and Let Me Go" Logic Would Dictate: This is a category supposedly dedicated to honoring the most amazing, iconic video of the year, yet it features the Jonas Brothers, PCD and Britney Spears. (Also, three of the song titles have the word "up" in them. Wonder what that means ...?) Logic does not apply. But Illogically: If you've been paying attention, you've probably heard that poor Britney has been nominated 19 times for a Moonman, but she's yet to win a single one. Add to that, the last few years have been rather rough on her. Redemption and validation: Can you think of two more compelling story lines to carry on through to the very last award of the night? So, The Winner Is: In a year without a singularly iconic video, you've gotta give Video of the Year to the biggest icon in the group. So I'm picking Britney Spears to win. Partially because of everything I've just written, but also because I can't think of a more illogical way to cap off the night.
MILEY TREATS HERSELF TO A NEW MERCEDES
MILEY CYRUS - MILEY TREATS HERSELF TO A NEW MERCEDES
Miley Cyrus has treated herself to a brand new Mercedes convertible - even though she's too young to drive it. The 15-year-old pop sensation doesn't turn 16 until 16 November (08) but she's already bought herself a gift - a $75,000 (GBP40,540) white Mercedes-Benz CLK 550 Cabriolet. A source tells In Touch magazine, "Miley wanted special options like parking assist and a cream-colored leather interior, so she ordered the car early. "She's telling everyone that she hopes to get a car when she turns 16, so when it comes, she can say it was a surprise from her parents."

LEIBOVITZ DENIES $715,000 DEBT
The celebrity photographer who came under fire for Miley Cyrus' provocative U.S. magazine shoot in May (08) has denied claims she is over $715,000 in debt. Annie Leibovitz's impressive photographic portfolio - including iconic shots of Demi Moore, John Lennon and Brooke Shields for Rolling Stone magazine - has earned her a reported $2 million annually. However, according to court records, Leibovitz' debt stemmed from failing on tax payments, equipment rental fees, renovations to her Manhattan apartment in addition to an aborted book project. But the 58-year-old photographer denies her bills remain outstanding. A spokesperson for Vanity Fair magazine tells the New York Post on behalf of the photographer: "To the best of my knowledge all of these (debts) have been resolved."
Miley Cyrus' '7 Things' Is About Nick Jonas, Director Brett Ratner Seemingly Reveals
Veteran video director Brett Ratner has worked with Madonna, Mariah Carey, Diddy, Jessica Simpson, Wu-Tang Clan and many others. And he's got high praise for VMA Best New Artist nominee Miley Cyrus, whose "7 Things" clip he recently helmed. "She reminded me a lot of Madonna," Ratner told MTV News. "And I hate saying that, but what I mean is, like Madonna, she can be hanging out and laughing, and then you put the camera on her and it's like, 'Holy sh--!' " That effervescence actually made the simple performance video more difficult for the director. "It was the hardest video I've ever edited because every moment was great," he said. "Every moment that she was on camera, she was amazing. She's got an incredible quality about her. She gets the camera, and that's what it takes to make a great music video. "She came out in these high-heel boots and I was going to say something to her about them," he continued, "but on her own she was like, 'I'd feel better in sneakers.' Her instincts are great. She has great charisma and personality." He recalled discussing the video with the young star during a visit to her home, where she told him how much the song — which she co-wrote — means to her, and said that it's about an ex-boyfriend. (Cyrus told MTV News last month that much of the album is about ex-boyfriends.) While Ratner declined to reveal who exactly that ex is, he gave away a significant detail — perhaps inadvertently — that seems to confirm the song is about Nick Jonas. Cyrus recently admitted, after months of unconfirmed speculation, that she dated Jonas for two years. "She had me come out to her house," Ratner recalled. "She started showing me all of her personal items from under her bed that her ex-boyfriend gave her. So she pulled out his dirty socks and a bunch of photographs. "The necklace she's wearing in the video is the necklace he gave her," he said. "She's wearing his diabetes or medical necklace." Nick recently made himself a de facto spokesperson for awareness of the disease: Earlier this month, the group held a press conference where he said the title track to their new LP, A Little Bit Longer — for which he wrote the lyrics — is a "life song" where he addresses his affliction. For his part, Ratner said he believes Cyrus has the talent and the attitude to make her not only a Best New Artist, but a career artist. "She was very down to earth, and it's kind of very popular for little girls in the entertainment industry to be kind of bratty," he said. "I couldn't believe how many people wanted to visit [the video set], and I've worked with people like Mariah and Madonna. She was very gracious and she's very smart. She really knows her stuff. Look, [whether] she wins or not, I think she'll make a great transition [from being a teen star]. She's very conscientious of her persona and of the crossover." He also pointed out what he sees as her emotional maturity, and her comfort with being a 15-year-old superstar. "She's not, like, frustrated with where she's at," he said. "You can tell by the lyrics that they're very personal and that's how she'll make that transition. The stuff she talks about in the video is clever and emotional and fun at the same time. You can be 18 and enjoy it too." Your job's not over yet!
