For a fifteen-year-old, how does it feel to have your face plastered on every tween girl’s bedroom walls, school notebooks, and DVD shelves?
Honestly?
Speaking as a girl under the age of 20, I can say that, well, I might enjoy it. Please don’t take me for egotistical. I try to be humble, but when you look like me, wow, what’s there not to like about your face on a billboard?
I kid, I kid. Honest to Jehova, I’m not so vain.
But seriously.
For a teen like Miley Cyrus, doesn’t it get tiring seeing your stage name taped on everything? I was in Jo-Ann today with my mom and saw a pillowcase with a cartoon Hannah Montana printed across it. In February I was in Hollywood to see the Hannah Montana Miley Cyrus Best of Both Worlds Concert in 3D whatever. (Long story.) And it absolutely shocked me the amount of blonde rockstar merchandise that Disney can crank out – and, of course, sell at a ludicrous price. How about the Hannah Montana In-Concert Pop Stage?:
Only $89.50 at the Official Disney Store!
Or how about the Hannah Montana comforter?
Because what girl doesn’t want a blatant advertising logo scribbled on her bedclothes?
I’m not trying to diss the girl. I actually think some of her songs are pretty catchy. I like her hair. I think it’s pretty cool that a teen makes about $18 million dollars a year. But there’s a limit. And I think the public has just about reached theirs. (Because I sure have.) Maybe if she would release an actual CD – maybe if she would act in more than teen twaddle. (Not that there’s anything wrong with teen twaddle, might I add.) Then I might be more open to her popularity, but right now I find it odd that she’s a rockstar in a TV show. A TV show for crying out loud. She’s not an actual rockstar. She pretends to be one in a TV show where she pretends not to be one and then she performs in concerts where she’s really a rockstar? It’s all very confusing.
Anyways. Enough from me.
