Miley beat out Britney Spears (second place) and Kanye West (third place), seemingly because of the ‘>pole dancing controversy, in which Miley stood on top of an ice cream cart, which had a pole on it and was being pushed across the stage at the Teen Choice Awards.

Editor of the website, Stephanie Cohen, says "I think Miley is in an interesting space where she is trying to graduate from being ‘Hannah Montana’ and a Disney channel celebrity and coming into her own and having a career beyond Disney."

She adds, "I think her fans still want her to be the sweet Hannah Montana and she is trying to age up…Parents are definitely resisting it."

Vanessa Hudgens (High School Musical) came in fourth, while Transformers star Shia LaBeouf came in fifth. Though, there might not be a real feud going on between Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez, Miley can be jealous of Selena for one thing: Selena was voted the Best Influence of this year, with best friend Taylor Swift coming in second. Nick Jonas came in third, Emma Watson in fourth and Justin Bieber in fifth.

I was just outraged that Britney Spears was voted the second worst. She should be seen more of as a comeback story. This year has been big for her. She is finally getting over that dark moment in her life, came out with and awesome record and is rocking it out. It’s a great story, and certainly not deserving to be worst over Kanye West…

And it’s pretty harsh that Miley was voted the absolute worst. Do you think Miley deserved the title? She has made quite a few thoughtless decisions, and she does seem to be trying to grow up way too fast, but is this title too harsh?

Miley fans and followers were so upset they even created their own mini campaign to try to get her back online. The singing cutie had 1.1 million followers. Crazy! That’s a lot of people to leave in the dust, but Miley did for a great reason: to start actually living her life instead of tweeting about it on Twitter.

Miley is certain of her decision and defends herself by saying, “It was 3:30 or 4 in the morning. I couldn’t sleep. [I thought], ‘Maybe I could sleep if I wasn’t so friggin’ busy Twittering about not being able to sleep.’”

She says that her obsession with Twitter, “I really haven’t missed it.  I thought I was going to miss it a lot more than I do, but I haven’t even really looked at other people’s, which is really weird. I don’t really miss it. It’s kind of odd.”

Well, it’s good to hear that she’s been able to break away from all her time on Twitter. It really can get so addictive. Miles even created a rap about why she decided to delete her Twitter account. Check it out below!

Miley’s final Tweet last night read: "FYI Liam doesn’t have a twitter and he wants ME to delete mine with good reason."

Though, Miley hasn’t officially confirmed this is the reason why (and neither has Liam), it seems she’s stopped Tweeting just for some guy. Way to ruin Miley’s party in the USA, Liam! Or rather her party in the Twitter world, at least.

Twitter Queen, Perez Hilton was all abuzz about it as well. Now, Miley’s fans and daddy, Billy Ray Cyrus seem to want to get her back on board. Her fans on Twitter have now created their own online organization called “Mileycomeback”, which has now become one of the biggest trending topics on Twitter. Her mom, Tish also deleted her account.

Billy, who kept his account, wrote on his page, “Miley. You are a light in a world of darkness. You were born "Destiny Hope Cyrus" for a reason.You can’t leave everyone now.We r countin on u.”

I understand that Twitter has gotten some people super addicted, and Miley surely had her fun with it, but deleting her account is a bit drastic. Miles had 1.1 million followers, so hopefully she won’t just leave her fans hanging like that!

Now, with the release of her music video, I’m sure it’ll be in the top ten of all the music video charts!  Miley made headlines after her 2009 Teen Choice Awards performance where she danced around a pole, bearing some skin.

I actually really like the song. It’s so catchy. The music video is lots of fun too, but I have a problem with the dancing and the clothing. It just all seems a bit too…sexy, if you get what I mean. What do you guys think? Is Miley acting too grown up for her age? Anyways, she definitely is rocking it, though!

Anyways, enjoy the song and video and let me know what you think!

The song is also the second released single from Miley’s album, “The Time of Our Lives” which is at #2 on the Billboard 200. Miley Cyrus embarked on her first world tour yesterday, with Metro Station (the lead singer is Miley’s bro, Trace Cyrus) as her opening act.

The music video features several clips from The Last Song, which should be hitting theatres on January 8, 2010. I’m liking this song and Miley seems to be doing a great job with the ballads, however, this music video bothers me a bit. Miley just looks like she’s trying to be older and more mature than she actually is. I like the song, but I’m not a fan of this video. What do you guys think?

The Hannah Montana star told Access Hollywood, "There’s a lot of people I’m supposedly dating these days. But I’m just kicking it right now, I don’t really have time for a huge relationship. There’s no dude."

She also spoke about how hard she works and how happy she is that she’s not going to a regular high school. She expresses, "I work a lot harder than a lot of people my age, I would say, but everyone has their own challenges. This is something that comes easily to me. I think of high school and I’m like ‘Aghh!’ I couldn’t do it. I think this is easier than going to a normal high school.”

She continues, "As you get older, I’ve been able to work a little harder, and like, building things, things I never would have had the confidence in myself to do before. I would have said, ‘I don’t know if I want to do that’ – now I’m able to have the confidence."

Miley is also going on tour this fall, so if you’re a fan, make sure to keep your eyes out for tickets. According to Miley the shows are going to be great, "You have to see the show. It’s things that I never could have done before," she reveals.

You’ve got to hand it to Miley. It can’t be easing being a teenager in the spotlight, with people constantly wanting her to be a role model for their kids. I has to be tough. Though she definitely has had some misjudgments, I think overall, she’s down-to-earth.

However, father Billy Ray Cyrus defended his daughter’s choice to pole dance, telling Access Hollywood, "You know what? I just think that Miley loves entertaining people. She loves singing [and] songwriting."

He explains that he taught them to worry about themselves and not other people’s opinions, "I always tell her to love what you’re doing and stay focused for the love of the art and not worry so much about opinion," he said. He also told Us magazine, “I give my kids a lot of freedom to make the art they wanna make, and make it in their own voice. I think it’s important."

Following the performance, Disney said they don’t want to be held responsible for anything that happened involving Miley at the TCAs, "Disney Channel won’t be commenting on that performance, although parents can rest assured that all content presented on the Disney Channel is age-appropriate for our audience — kids 6-14 — and consistent with what our brand values are."

I think the pole dancing, what she was wearing and how she was moving that night was just so inappropriate. I don’t think kids should be looking up at celebs as role models, but I think that when you intentionally put yourself in the spotlight, you need to present yourself in the best way possible. Miley is still a kid and pole dancing at the Teen Choice Awards is just wrong. Maybe if it was at the VMAs or something, but that event was for teens.  I do have to say that the girl does know how to sing well live, though. Here’s the video in case you missed it:

I like Miley Cyrus so I’m going to be honest here and I hope she and her fans take this as a constructive criticism. Miley needs to take voice lessons. She needs to take control of her tone, pitch, registry, and delivery.  She was very nasal last night. Actually, that’s how she sings. It’s not as obvious when she’s singing upbeat songs but with a song like ‘The Climb’ wherein she delivers it so dramatically, it’s very clear how she’s singing nasally.

Don’t use her age (16) as an excuse of the way she sings because there are other singers her age and even younger who knows how to control their tone and pitch when singing huge songs. Have you heard of Charice? Now that girl could sing.

So that’s my advice to Miley. She needs to stop making stupid, funny videos on YouTube. Go to the studio, hire an expert for some voice lessons instead. It’s for her own good especially if she wants this Music thing to go as further as she wants.
