The Biggest Dance Battle in the History of Mankind: Jon M. Chu v. Miley Cyrus

DC — Sun, 11 May 2008 05:08:04 +0000

I know that this has been going on for about a month now, but I have to say that the YouTube dance battle (Known as “The Biggest Dance Battle in the History of Mankind”) between Step Up 2 the Streets director Jon M.Â Chu

and Hannah Montana’s Miley Cyrus (with her friend Mandy) has got to be one of the most entertaining things on the Internet right now.

Jon’s crew is known as AC/DC (Adam/Chu Dance Crew), while Miley’s crew is known as M&M (The Mandy & Miley Crew). Seeing as the MandyMiley channel is one of the most popular on YouTube, the dance battle clearly benefits Chu more than Miley, but it’s pretty awesome that Hannah Montana herself is entertaining the dance battle.

It all began with Jon and Adam Sevani throwing down the gauntlet by challenging Mandy and Miley to a dance battle in a video blog, unless they were “scared.” They called out the Disney channel star to the biggest online dance battle in YouTube history. The battle would have no rules and Miley would be able to bring whoever she wanted to join her crew to battle against team AC/DC. After a dance performance that would make You Got Served jealous, you would think that Mandy and Miley were too good (or too scared?) to respond.

But no, M&M fired right back to the sounds of Madonna’s “Four Minutes” to say “I ain’t neva scared!!” While Mandy and Miley aren’t the focus of the performance, they show some pretty good moves before letting their crew takeover the performance. Though M&M’s crew is more choreographed, it’s tough to say if they beat team AC/DC.

So what did AC/DC do? They fired back AGAIN with the sounds of Busta Rhymes, even taunting cut outs of Hannah Montana and the show’s theme song. Even better for me, they brought two of my favorite hotties Amanda Bynes and Brittany Snow into their crew. Lindsay Lohan, Adam Sandler, America’s Best Dance Crew’s JabbaWockeez, So You Think You Can Dance’s Lacey Schwimmer (hot!!) and Hok Konishi, Diana Ross, and Chris Brown, all make cameos in a YouTube battle that makes Jimmy Kimmel’s “I’m F*cking Matt Damon” look tame in comparison.

Now it’s Miley’s turn. Can she fire back with more star power and more importantly, more moves? Bring it, Miley. This is the best YouTube battle evar.

Now I just can’t wait for So You Think You Can Dance to get back on the air (so our friends at BSYTYCD can give us clip heaven fool s gold free ).

Miley Cyrus in Vanity Fair Causes Controversy

DC — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 08:03:23 +0000

Miley Cyrus, star of Disney Channel’s Hannah Montana, has been doing a lot of apologizing as of late for some more candid photos that surfaced online and some near-topless pictures that will be appearing in an upcoming issue of Vanity Fair.

The fact that Miley is 15 years old is the main cause of conflict in this whole debacle, most of which focuses on the magazine shoot, along with the fact that Miley is a role model to a legion of loyal fans that really look up to her.

While the photos are supposed to be artsy, it’s pretty obvious to see why the Vanity Fair pictures would be causing such a commotion – considering Miley looks like she’s the living undead in the photos that were previewed by Entertainment Tonight.

Miley told People Magazine, “My goal in my music and my acting is always to make people happy. For Vanity Fair, I was so honored and thrilled to work with Annie [Leibovitz]. I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be ‘artistic’ and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed.”

Even before this Vanity Fair controversy began, Hannah Montana ran into some other problems with some random pictures of her with some friends and an ex-boyfriend surfacing that weren’t really all that much worse than you could find on MySpace in about…three minutes.

In terms of the candid photos, it all felt very reminiscent of how people loved to make a big deal about the Ramiele Malubay photos that surfaced while she was on American Idol, which I didn’t feel like were a big deal. In hindsight, the controversy with the Miley pictures does feel more justified than the hoopla surrounding High School Musical star Vanessa Anne Hudgens

, simply because again, Miley is 15 years old. The Vanity Fair spread definitely seems to be worth the controversy and buzz that it’s creating.

Miley is the near-epitome of clean, innocent Disney fun. Now, with a photo shoot that could even be even more buzzworthy than the fabled Lindsay Lohan shoot in New York Magazine (NSFW), considering that Miley Cyrus has to be one of the most popular celebrities in the world, hopefully the Queen of everything Disney, the movie box office, and even American Idol’s Idol Gives Back can try to maintain her squeaky clean image amidst the turmoil.

UPDATE: The Hollywood Gossip has posted more pictures of the photoshoot

(which to me, seems not too bad) and you can check them out over there.
