Montana Pens Memoir For Mucho Moola


Chew on this:


Pop Princess Miley Cyrus signed a seven-figure book deal today with the Disney Book group. That's right, a 15-year-old entertainer who probably couldn't pass the English AP test will earn at least a million dollars to composing her memoir. 

I'm sure the book will be a best-seller when it's released in 2009 and the investment is well worth it for Disney. Plus it may be interesting to hear about this rising star's hectic life, especially if she actually delves in to some of the challenges and misconceptions about fame. 

But still. Seven figures? Is anyone else a little sad their parents never enrolled them in voice lessons?

While My TV Gently Weeps


Tickets to see Hannah Montana, (played by Achy Breaky offspring and not-preggers Miley Cyrus), live in concert are sold out across the country. One ticket to a show in North Carolina recently sold for over $2,500, causing the VP of the tour company to claim the hysteria over Miley and the "Best of Both Worlds" tour is " like the Beatles."

Yeah...no.

I don't care how fast your tickets sell out or how much greedy soccer moms sell them for on eBay. Until your albums are timeless, or you effect change through a few chord changes and simple ditties, or at least until you do a lot of drugs and grow a beard...you are not like the Beatles. Don't even bring bring them up for comparison.
