Isn't Miley Cyrus like, 37 years old?

I like Hannah Montana, it’s no worse than a lot of other kid’s sitcoms I’ve had to endure as an uncle/father. And, while I can’t stand what I’ve heard of his music, I like Billy Ray in it, too. He comes across as a real likeable guy.

To tell you the truth, I have to agree. They come across as OK in their roles and I haven’t heard of any real britney/lindsay/paris-type perturbations, so eh, could be way worse.

Also, if you ignore the vocals, a lot of her stuff sounds like kind of decent punky powerpop. Yeah, I know, I’m trippin’…

I’m aware of those pictures. They’re not all that suggestive to my eyes. But, again, you seem to take a perverse pleasure in being vexsome.

The ads for this thread are tripping me out. There’s 3 ads to sign up to be on the Hanna Montana cast, and one rather creepy ad to "Undo Circumcision Damage ".

What the TCLTugger has to do with a 15 year old girl I’m afraid to ask.

C’mon, that second pic is adorable!

Yeah, who doesn’t have family photos of him or herself reclining on Daddy’s crotch? That pose practically kept Sears Portrait Studio in business back in the 1950s and '60s.

Not to get all Fashion Police, but it was way too much big fancy gown for a 16-year-old girl.

Actually I see that a lot around here. It isn’t sexual. It’s just a compromise between mom or dad’s desire not to have a numb leg, and a kid’s desire to site on their lap.

The one with his hand on her upper thigh near the hip area crosses a line though IMO.

That isn’t his hand, it’s her hand.

I don’t “google it” for young girls anymore because it gave me myopia.

Is the kid usually 15 years old? I think of that as younger kid behavior.

And hairy palms?

What? I hope you know this because you are either a teenage girl or the mother/friend of a teenage girl. Any other source of this knowledge is Very Creepy.

Dude. If you don’t have a TV, have never seen a TV, never go to a grocery store and look at the magazines by the check out counter, don’t look online for news and information, or live on a commune with no electricity and grow your own food then I might believe this.

I don’t watch TV or follow celebrity “news” but even I know who they are.

Or alternatively, congratulations on a terrific Whoosh.

By all accounts they have a loving close relationship. Personally I think this is a good thing. From what I’ve seen/read of her she seems like a stable and well grounded girl and though I don’t have a dog in this race–old man here, no kids or grandkids, nephews who think girls are icky–I wish her well.

Until you mentioned it, I hadn’t.

But you’re right.

Please just let her survive the next 10 years without getting knocked up by a fortune-seeking loser, wasting away to eating disorders, bingeing on substances, or killing herself or anyone else while driving.

She’s got spunk and seems to have a head on her shoulders. Please let her keep it.

Well, if you had bothered to read my next post, you’d see how I know this. It’s mostly extrapolation based on the fact that I know lots of women in their twenties who shave, and aren’t shy about letting people know when the topic comes up in conversation. Some have told me directly that they started young (in their teens,) and others I assume probably started then, too.

But yes, let’s all just assume I have sex with underage girls, cause that’s clearly the logical way to think about this. :rolleyes:

Well, for what it’s worth, Emily Osment, Miley’s HM costar, is 17 today.

Depends on the family.

Wasn’t trying to imply that. I was trying to make a joke. I guess I’m not good at that or should have added appropriate smilies. My apologies for offending you; that was not my intention.

That being said, you must have some interesting conversations.

She’s 15, and in that photo, looks 15. It’s a 15-year-old all dressed up but she’s pretty obviously just a teenager, at least IMHO.

The effect actually becomes even more pronounced if you look at her standing next to an adult; then she looks more like 13. She’s very short.

After a fashion.
