'Hannah Montana' holds six spots on the Billboard Hot 100

As if we needed another sign that Miley Cyrus is taking over the world, the 'tween pop phenom is now dominating the Billboard Hot 100. Six songs off the soundtrack for Hannah Montana: The Movie -- which just so happened to rule the box office this past weekend -- span this week's singles chart from No. 8 to No. 88, including Miley's "The Climb," BFF Taylor Swift's track "Crazier," and Miley's duet with dear old dad Billy Ray, "Butterfly Fly Away." While the Black Eyed Peas' "Boom Boom Pow" held on to the top spot, the Hannah Montana tunes are climbing at a steady rate. Miley's "Hoedown Throwdown" has seen big success in the past few days, with a 119 percent rise in downloads. And with a song title like that, who could be surprised?

How about you, Music Mixers? Have you purchased songs off the Hannah Montana soundtrack? Or are you simply too busy bracing for the Miley-induced apocalypse?

Miley Cyrus: No more 'Hannah Montana' films

Miley Cyrus plans to be back on the big screen, and soon. Hannah Montana? Not likely after her latest film.

So says the 16-year-old tween phenom, whose alter ego brings her secret double life as a pop star to theaters April 10 with "Hannah Montana: The Movie."

"We got really lucky with having the material to make one movie," Cyrus said in an interview Monday. The film reveals Hannah Montana's identity to the world in a way Cyrus says is "very clever" and diminishes the chances of a sequel — but doesn't dampen the future of the popular Disney TV show.

The film follows last year's sold-out Cyrus-Montana concert tour and her "Best of Both Worlds Concert" 3D movie, which grossed more than $60 million, a rare hit for a concert film.

"I don't know if I would do another (Hannah Montana) film, but I would love to do another season," said Cyrus, who's signed up for a third and says she's interested in a fourth. "That would be what we would all agree on."

Cyrus also seems to agree with the idea of a jump to Hollywood: She's planning to spend the summer working on a film written by "Nights in Rodanthe" and "The Notebook" author Nicholas Sparks. But this is no adaptation of a bestselling romantic novel — instead, Sparks went directly to the screenplay this time, and did so with Cyrus in mind for the part.

Other than the title, "The Last Song," neither Sparks nor Cyrus are giving away any plot points. But Cyrus hints at a role that will put her acting chops to the test.

"I've always been lucky to play parts that relate to me, and this doesn't at all," she said. "I have my issues, but not as bad as this chick. So I'm happy to play someone that's just kind of out there and not someone that I'm like."

Like anyone else, Cyrus is waiting to see whether she's "a good actress or not, or if I'm just good at playing myself.

"So," she added, "We'll see how that goes."

Will that affect her status as a role model for young girls? Not any more than her feelings on the glamorous life she's chosen: Asked what kids should do if they're torn between pursuing an acting dream or going to college, Cyrus responds with her usual unfiltered candor.

"I say 'do it,'" she said, laughing as if she knew what kind of trouble she was causing for herself. "Be a freak. Go to Hollywood."

The 16-year-old star is struggling to control her emotions and even shed tears when she watched her latest movie 'Bolt', an animation about a TV star dog who struggles to come to terms with his everyday life.

Miley said: "I cry at absolutely everything. Sometimes I cry uncontrollably if it's really sad. I cried during 'Bolt' - and I knew what was going to happen. I still worried about it and cried in the sad bit. I couldn't stop myself."

This is not the first time the 'Hannah Montana' star has discussed her rollercoaster emotions.

She recently admitted being "lonely and miserable" at school in Tennessee because she was picked on by some of her fellow students.

Miley claims her tormentors once locked her in the bathroom and also started a group called 'The Anti-Miley Cyrus Club'.

Miley Cyrus says bullies made school a hellish experience

Singer and actress Miley Cyrus was so bullied at school that a sandwich she clung on to became "pretty much my best friend".

A multi-millionaire TV, music and film star, she said her school days were friendless, lonely and miserable - leaving her in constant fear of physical abuse.

In her book Miley Cyrus: Miles To Go, the Hannah Montana star talks about the sad memories from her Tennessee high school days.

"The girls took it beyond the normal bullying. These were big, tough girls," she wrote.

"I was scrawny and short. They were fully capable of doing me bodily harm."

One on occasion she was locked in a bathroom by her tormentors and challenged to a fight by "The Anti-Miley Club".

"It seemed like Operation Make Miley Miserable was escalating to a new level. More like Operation Take Miley Down," she said.

"Three girls strutted up and stood towering over me.

"My stomach churned.

"I clutched my grilled cheese sandwich like it was the hand of my best friend. It pretty much was my best friend those days.

"They started cussing me and telling me to get up. I didn't know what to do. I couldn't take it any more. I wasn't chicken.

"What could they do to me? I was surrounded by people. I stood up, still a foot shorter then they were, and said: 'What's your problem? What did I ever do to you?'."

The 16-year-old star also wrote of splitting up with Jonas Brothers' star Nick:

"Deep down I know we weren't being our best selves."

She now dates Justin Gaston.

Miley Cyrus: Media Making Her the New Britney Spears

Miley Cyrus fired back at her critics on her blog over her most recent public faux pas, a picture of her and a group of friends slanting their eyes. One group, OCA (Organization of Chinese Americans) has called for an apology for what it calls an offensive and stereotypically hurtful denigration of Asians. Miley Cyrus maintains that she was only making a "goofy" face.

On her blog, according to EOnline, Cyrus says that she had heard that some people were "upset with her" and her friends for maing "goofy faces." She wrote, "Well, I'm sorry if those people looked at the pics and took them wrong and out of context!"

It does not read like much of an apology, but, then again, it probably isn't one. Especially when taken in context with the rest of what she wrote in her blog.

The "Hannah Montana" star complained that the media was out to make her the "new BAD GIRL!" She even brings Britney Spears into the fray. "I feel like now that Britney is back on top of her game again, they need someone to pick on! Lucky me! haha."

She went on to thank her fans for their support and to admit that when she felt she had done wrong, she had done the responsible thing and apologized. She finished by saying that she wished that "everyone would stop focusing on my personal life." She wants the public and the media to concentrate on her acting and music.

(Miley Cyrus should be careful what she asks for, due to the fact nobody other than children actually believes that she can do either of those things outside the confines of Disney and children's programming.)

Miley Cyrus' latest picture scandal just might cost her some awards, though, according to Tom O'Neil at the Los Angeles Times. O'Neil says that the two-time Kids Choice Awards Best Television Actress award-winner might lose this year because of the controversy.

Miley Cyrus Accused of Racially Insensitive Gesture

The 16-year-old "Hannah Montana" star, Miley Cyrus is under the spotlight again. This time for a photo obtained by TMZ, in which the Disney Channel star is shown sitting on her boyfriend Justin Gaston’s lap surrounded by a group of friends all making a stereotypical gesture by pulling their eyes into a slanted position. The gesture is commonly thought to be offensive to Asian Pacific Americans.

"Not only has Miley Cyrus and the other individuals in the photograph encouraged and legitimized the taunting and mocking of people of Asian descent, she has also insulted her many Asian Pacific American fans," said George Wu, executive director of OCA, an organization that advances the rights of Asian Americans.

The OCA, a group "dedicated to advancing the social, political and economic well-being of Asian Pacific Americans" is fuming at this photo of Miley and pals for using what they have deemed an offensive, stereotypical gesture.

This isn't the first time Cyrus has come under fire for a photo. The "Hannah Montana" star publicly apologized to fans in April after posing semi-topless for a Vanity Fair shoot.

In the meantime, Cyrus is trying to prove she’s a fine responsible teen-ager and showed her devotion to the Earth. She traded in her Porsche, given to her for her 16th birthday, for an enviro-friendly Toyota Prius hybrid. Moreover she currently has three songs moving up the Radio Disney chart from the upcoming soundtrack to the "Hannah Montana Movie": "It's All Right Here", "Let's Do This", and "Let's Get Crazy." "Wake Up America" will be serviced to radio stations soon.

Miley Cyrus Turns 16 at the American Music Awards

Even among such A-list show stoppers as Christina Aguilera, Mariah Carey and the Jonas Brothers, Disney star Miley Cyrus has one distinct advantage when she takes the stage at the American Music Awards on Sunday night – she'll be celebrating her birthday, too.

Miley Cyrus Dead? Nope, Just Another Internet Death Hoax

The 'Hannah Montana' star was falsely reported to have been killed by a drunk driver.

Like the rumors about Mark Twain, reports of Miley Cyrus' death have been greatly exaggerated.

The "Hannah Montana" star is alive and kicking despite an Internet hoax over the weekend that claimed she had been killed by a drunk driver, report news sources.

Someone had apparently hacked into the YouTube account Cyrus, 15, shares with her friend Mandy Jiroux and posted a video alleging the tragic and grisly death. The fake message attributed to Jiroux claimed: "Miley died this morning after being hit by a drunk driver. She always told us if anything ever happened to her then tell her loyal fans first before the public. R.I.P Miley, we'll never forget you!"

This caused a frenzy on Google with "Miley Cyrus Dead" becoming the most searched phrase on Sunday (Nov. 16).

The real Jiroux caught wind of the false rumor and smacked it down with a message on her MySpace page, saying, "MILEY IS OK!! Some1 hacked our youtube account."

And although the vampires in "Twilight" have made dead folk all the rage among the teen and tween set, Cyrus' fans will be happy to hear she was looking in the pink while conducting interviews on Sunday for "Bolt," a Disney animated film for which she lends her voice.

Young, impressionable minds that need even more proof that she's alive can check out her special performance on the season finale of "Dancing With the Stars" on Tuesday, Nov. 25.

Miley Cyrus was a toilet cleaner

Miley Cyrus' first job was considerably less glamorous than her work on Hannah Montana - the singer/actress used to clean toilets for a living.

The 15-year-old star insists she has learned to appreciate her fame and fortune, because she started out at such a young age.

And Cyrus' first taste of the world of work was during her time at a cleaning company.
She tells U.S. TV host Tyra Banks, "I had one normal job and I actually liked it. I worked at this place called Sparkles Cleaning Service and I cleaned houses, I was like 11. I can clean toilet bowls."
