If Miley Cyrus was smart, she’d stop taking photographs of herself in sexual and compromising positions. One has to begin to wonder if she leaks the photos herself. After all, it makes her front page news on a regular basis and has not seemed to hurt her career in any way. This week, new photos have surfaced online of the teen star showering in a white t-shirt. The pics ended up online after a website reportedly hacked into her cell phone and posted them. There are rumors that the website is shopping around, trying to sell a much more incriminating set of photos. Of course, Miley didn’t comment on the latest scandal but her rep did tell FOX News, “Old photos, old news.” The Hannah Montana star did talk this week with TV Guide about everything else though, from her purity ring to her desire to star in a Sex and the City-type movie.

Miley Cyrus may have had her heart broken by a Jonas brother but it appears that she's ready to move on. The Hannah Montana star was said to have dated Nick Jonas, who reportedly dumped her after she made their relationship known by kissing him on stage. Both sides have denied the story and insisted that they've remained friends. Other say that Miley was so hurt by Nick's actions that she wrote her latest song, "7 Things", about their relationship. That's all in the past now and it seems the Hannah Montana star has moved on to bigger and older things, perhaps cozying up with her costar, Lucas Till.

Yes, in a recent interview with Billboard, Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus finally addressed her Vanity Fair photo scandal. It’s not the only thing she talked about and fans are happy about that.

These days, it seems you can’t say the name Miley Cyrus without someone bringing up the Vanity Fair photo scandal that happened earlier this year. This month, her father, Billy Ray, addressed the incident, saying that he wasn’t home at the time of the photo shoot with celeb photographer Annie Liebowitz. He did tell The Today Show that he told his daughter things would blow over. Unfortunately for the Cyrus family, that day has yet to come. Perhaps the media, and fans, have been waiting for Miley to address the photos herself. They finally got their wish when the Hannah Montana star opened up to Billboard magazine this week.

Miley Cyrus fans should brace themselves for a bitter side of the Hannah Montana star, as she gets ready to release her newest video, “7 Things” this weekend on ABC. It will debut after an airing of the movie The Haunted Mansion on The Wonderful World of Disney. The video is directed by Brett Ratner, who previously directed X-Men: The Last Stand and Rush Hour 3. Miley’s new song is about getting over the boyfriend who wronged her and rumors are swirling that the lyrics are about none other than Nick Jonas. The two dated last year but he wanted to keep their relationship a secret. When she gave him a kiss on stage in front of thousands of female fans, he abruptly ended their relationship.

Where are Miley's parents when they're most needed? When Miley posed for a Vanity Fair photo shoot earlier this year, neither Tish nor Billy Ray Cyrus were anywhere to be found. Only the Disney star's manager chaperoned the shoot, but didn't step in when celebrity photographer Annie Liebovitz asked the 15 year old to take her clothes off. What resulted was a photo of Miley Cyrus, wrapped only in a blanket, in a very provocative photo. Miley apologized, Annie defended, and the media ate it up.
Besides the Vanity Fair pictorial, Miley has posted some sexy photos of her own, from kissing other girls to showing off her lingerie to crawling all over several different boys. While BuddyTV readers have defended her, saying that she's just been a teen, they might change their tune when they find out the new fan base Miley has picked up as a result of her new sexy image.

After months of silence, Billy Ray Cyrus has finally publicly addressed his daughter Miley’s controversial Vanity Fair photo shoot. Back in April, the Hannah Montana star was extremely embarrassed when pictures taken by celebrity photographer Annie Liebowitz hit the internet. The picture that drew the most criticism and backlash was one of the 15 year old wrapped only in a blanket and showing her bare back. Miley immediately apologized to her fans while Liebowitz defended her photograph, saying that it was “a simple, classic portrait, shot with very little makeup.” Billy Ray gave his perspective today to Meredith Viera on The Today Show.

It should come as no surprise that Forbes magazine named Oprah Winfrey its most powerful celebrity. After all, last year, she banked an unbelievable $275 million. Though ratings for her talk show have slowly declined, Oprah is smart enough to pursue other business ventures to ensure her success. Next year, she'll unveil The Oprah Winfrey Network, which is partnered with Discovery Communications. She has a 3 year, $55 million deal with XM Radio and her Harpo production company is responsible for the success of The Dr. Phil Show and The Rachael Ray Show. Tiger Woods, Angelina Jolie, Beyonce Knowles, and David Beckham rounded out the top 5. This year, tweens made a strong showing on the list, especially those that hail from The Disney Channel.
