Miley Cyrus. Yes, in its inaugural campaign, The Global Action Awards decided that the best youth leader they could find in the entire world was Miley Cyrus. Yeah, I'm guessing some 18 year old just had a crush on her and decided this was going to be his only chance to meet her. Are you telling me that in the billions of kids out there in the world, Miley Cyrus is the one youth who best exemplifies leadership. You have got to be out of your mind. This is like when that Long Island group named Dina Lohan, Mother Of The Year. Of course there they were only working with Long Island, this group had the entire world to find someone and they found Miley Cyrus. How many stories do you read each day about kids making a difference in their community or the world? How many service projects do children do each day that do more for the world around them?
Miley got the award for charity work she does for Blessings In A Backpack. I am sure it is a fine organization. Probably great, but have you ever seen Miley doing anything for them? Was her bong labeled with the 800 number to call to help the organization? Why not find someone who is actually doing something constructive?
i think it is less about what she actually contributes to the charity and more what media coverage her name will bring.
ReplyDeleteThough i think she is on the way out she is still an A list tweener.

ReplyDeleteLOLOLOL
Okay, I'm looking through the site and I see where Hilary Duff went to a school. They seem to have some athletes promoting this as well. I don't see anything about Miley anywhere.
ReplyDeleteI agree with timebob - publicity stunt.
She has geturgoodon.org. Never heard of it before. The design is an assault to the eyes.
hahaha haha. Miley sucks. How about Miss Teen of America Paige Jensen?

But "support" how?
ReplyDeleteI hate to nitpick, but there IS a difference between things like signing an item for an auction, donating money, even performing in a charity-connected concert...
And really WORKING with a charity...starting something new, actively performing service, visiting organizational clients, etc. I have seen other tweener stars do a whole lot more admirably "active" than Miley...is her activity really that shielded from press? I would be surprised.
She is the WORST role model ever this side of a Lohan....Must be a desperate for PR charity.
ReplyDeleteThey absolutely could have found someone else. Ellen Degeneres showcases regular every day do-gooders all the time.
ReplyDeleteEven if Miley has really done all that charity work/given donations, right now is probably not the best time to have picked her. Sounds like the award committee had a case of the lazies.
