Don't Blame Vanity Fair

Filed under: TV News > Disney > Miley Cyrus

miley1__opt1.jpg

Ratings for Hannah Montana are down, and Disney must not be happy that their cash cow is suffering.

But, according to reports, Hannah Montana was on the decline even BEFORE the Miley Cyrus Vanity Fair "scandal" rocked our worlds.

The audience for Sunday's new Hannah Montana episode fell 14% from the previous fresh episode, which aired just under two months earlier, say the ratings gurus the Nielsen Company.

Compared to the first original show of the year, which aired in January, viewership for Sunday's show was down 26%.

    I asked my granddaughters, ages 8 and 10, if they watch Hannah Montana. They said "no, because she is mean." They never have been fans of hers.

    Perez needs a new Britney…i love your site but honestly get over miley..the pictures she took were not even provocative all you saw was her upper back for god's sake!! Perez of all people you should have seen right through the media's lame attempt at a new sandal…Miley is out of control for showing her upper back off and watching sex and the city please…watch an episode of Maury when they out of control teens on and compare those teen girls to Miley

    Ratings are always down this time of year. That's why the reruns begin around now.

    Wow…the claws come out! Jealous, are we? Must be, to pick on a young girl! Talent and money does not give jealousy an excuse to attack. You people are pathetic. Lets redirect…attack DISNEY!! They are the money-hungry assholes who put her up to the shoot to increase ratings! After all, when ratings dip, publicity, good or bad, sells, right? Wake the fuck up morons.

    106

    perez shes only 15..chill..i get it if u dont like her but dont write mean stuff about her like that and the reason why so many people didnt watch it was probably cause no one knew about it..they play so many re-runs that no one even watches disney anymore cause theyre bored of watching the same episodes over and over again

  7. jess says – reply to this


    107

    I wouldn't let my kids watch her shows from now on…her parents are too stupid to made a stupid kid like her.

  8. simon says – reply to this


    108

    oooooohhhhhhwwwaaaiiiittttt…stop the press….does perez get paid for certain words, like "talent"?? To clarify, I did not link this word, he did, basically manipulating his bloggers, or "talent" for profit. Lets call him "perez disney!" That is about as pathetic as his "charity" posts! Sellout. Thinks he's "cutting edge" or "original"…just another product. The only original thing about him is his dog. Very cute, that little teddy disney!

  9. Brae says – reply to this


    109

    Blame Miley???? You mean blame the director, producers and the writers!!! You're such a stupid fat fuck Mario!!! Why would it be her fault?? She's just an actress, she has nothing to do with production! And as for the 'scandal' that rocked our worlds, it didn't rock OUR worlds, just an overwieght, single 30 year old mo who has nothing better to do then go on and on and on about a 15 year old girl. Please just do us all a favor and end your life, we could feed a couple African countries with the food left over in your fridge!!! Cheers!!!

    You cant blame Miley for ratings on the show being down. I just wached the episode and thought it was great. If you balme anybody ( which you shouldnt) is the writers. There the ones that wrote it. Shes just doing her job, acting it out!

    Oh my god,,
    all of you just SHUT UP.
    If you don't like her FINE, no one gives a flying fuck.
    Say all you want, you just look like a lame ass low life. You to Perez.
    Shes 15, and quite frankly, everyone makes tons of mistakes in thier life time,
    she hasnt done anything HORRIBLE,
    and I think all of you guys should leave her alone, because you dont even know her to judge her!
    slut this slut that, whore, HOOKER?? wow you dumbass's make my day, so funny..
    Yeaaa your cool, you know this how.. I really doubt shes a any of those things, and if you think so, prove it?
    All of you need to grow up and stopped being obsessed with your wit and putting other people done.
    I'm so sick of people like you.
    I bet I could point a billion things out that I dont like about you.

    117

    it has nothing to do with miley. it has to do with the fact that there have been only 2 or 3 new hannah montana episodes in a LONG time, compared to the one new one a week they had been showing previously. Hannah Montana has def. over-saturated the market but it's far from gone. I predict the movie to be huge and have another hit album then hannah and miley will go separate ways….or i suppose in that case hannah will cease to exsist and disney will get rid of miley, she will become the new britney and make a TON of money, then retire at 18. good stuff.

  18. Lauren says – reply to this


    118

    I think Miley used to come off all sweet and nice but the more people see of her, the more people dislike her because she just seems so damn stuck up. She does not seem 15 at all. Act your age please, you only get to be a kid once and little kids who watch Disney Channel do not relate to girls who act tens years older than they are whenever they see them in magazines or on the news. And seriously come on, you were not picked out of a million girls to play Hannah Montana, you are not even famous because of your talent (or lack there of)! You are famous because your dad had an AWESOME mullet and tight jeans and he pulled a few strings for you. But seriously, good job for working that honey. I love ya for it anyways!

    And to "B" above, if you dont like what other people are saying DONT READ IT. Youre judging everyone else for what they think but we all think youre stupid for posting about how stupid everyone else is on an internet thread that is about some child star! DON'T READ IT, DON'T POST and leave us alone!! Oh and by the way sweetheart…learn proper grammar. What are you, like 16? And if you are older than that…well that is extremely unfourtunate cause the education system was wasted on you. We are all very unencumbered by anything you have to say that doesn't have to do with the topic. And another thing "B"-dumbass's is not the right way of writing that…its DUMBASSES. Now who is the dumbass? Stay in school kid. Oh yeah and Miley, you are a doll, keep your chin up dear!

    Re: Sarah
    Hey Sarah,
    Good Job, I am 16. I'm actually on the honor role thank you, and sweetheart.. I don't need you to teach me anything thanks.
    And if you don't like my opinion, DONT READ IT.
    I think Mileys awesome, and I think its rediculous and how far some people go to just put other people down.
    It's wrong and makes me angry, and I didnt happen to care about my grammar at the time, or now.. because it has nothing to do with anything.
    I think some people need to grow up and realise how cruel there being.
    Shes completely innocent and if you don't like her fine, just dont look her up.

    126

    The show is just not that good anymore. It tries to be funny and it's not….it's lost it's cuteness and it's heart and Miley isn't that great of an actress and she isn't pulling it off like she used to as the script has changed….I think that it just doesn't have as much of a life as shows like Raven did.

    So much time & effort wasted over Miley's back.

    OH how scandalous the vanity fair pictures was. Oh my god! When my kid saw them her eyes burned right off! Laugh out loud. None of us have ever been to the beach before it would seem.

    (That was sarcasm and I'm 15 I don't have a kid. :D ).

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE MILEY. She's a very optimistic and positive young girl and I would hate to see the media torturing over such silly things. BFD everyone should move on. All T.V show ratings are dropping it seems. Gossip girl isn't doing as good as it should be doing. Plus there hasn't been any new episodes of Hannah Montana lately. To many reruns….

  29. Perez is a bully says – reply to this


    129

    Leave Miley alone Perez . You come across as a bully for doing this, and a bit of a hypocrite.
    Stop trying to turn her into another Britney for your site.
    It's sad when a grown ass man (albeit gay one) stoops to attacking a young star.

    This is all so annoying… gross fake bake armpits to start with - but it's the photographer's fault for taking pics of a 15 year old like that and it's Miley's parents fault as well - Billy Ray needs to stop riding the wake of his daughter's popularity… it seems so lame when they are together on the TV, in pics, hosting awards shows… can't stand it. BOO!!!!!

    Why is everyone so obsessed with her?? She is just another Disney Channel actress. Why all the sudden is she so damn famous?? She is cute, but then again, so are all the other Disney stars. She hasn't done anything particularly interesting. *Yawn*. Next.

    I think this is directy correlated with the photo scandals. Yes, plural. We would do well to remember that there were questionable photos of her BEFORE the Vanity Fair ordeal. I emphasize "questionable" because the nature of them is uncertain, but for some parents the uncertainty itself does not set well. Mnay people will look for warning signs and do their very best to protect their child from idolizing anyone that may show signs of instability. With Britney and so many othe rchild stars eventually exhibitingunstable patterns of behavior, people are more sensitive to the slightest change in image. In other words, Miley cannot afford these mistakes becasue people are already weary based upon her youthful celebrity status alone. I( think most of us are atleast aware that this lifestyle herself and her fmaily had chosen for her is most difficult for even seasoned adults, much less horomone ridden teenagers.

    Many people just don't trust her anymore, but were already looking for a reason not to once she hit puberty.

    okay, i've trashed miley on here as much as anyone, but everyone's freaked out that she's changing and i'm not quite sure why. as was astutely pointed out in a news magazine last week, that's what teens do: they change. in body, in mind, hormones, priorities, they get boners and periods, they stop clinging to parents and toys. yes, she tarted it up for the photos, but she and her family are wisely trying to manage her transition to adulthood, unlike psycho hosebag britney and her "family". i wish miley well, even though i'll keep making fun of her on here.

    BULLSHIT!!! I am so sick of this Miley Cyrus bashing. Fuckin' grow up. Do you think my 6 year old granddaughter gives a shit about Miley posing in Vanity Fair? My granddaughter and I have been watching re-runs of Hannah Montana for at least a year now. If the ratings are down, Disney must take a part in having this show be on hiatus for so damn long. I didn't even realize Sundays' show was a new show. Disney needs to get on it and start promoting the new shows a hell of a lot better.

    Re: Anonymous – No people watch Zoey 101 because it is a Dan Schneider production so it is entertaining. People are bailing on HM because the show is tired, not funny and creepy. Its lost its appeal as a preteen safe place because Miley has slutted out plus the teens on there are far from preteens. And the sight of Billy pawning his daughter for a half hour is totally creeping people out.

    Could this be because Hannah Montana is the WORST SHOW EVER! I CRINGE every time I hear her whining voice on my TV. I have a 10 year old girl. I think only 10 year old girls watch this show. I have told my daughter she can't watch it in the room withme because her voice is so annoying! And she CAN"T SING! And I just don't understand the hype - she sucks!! What about Amanda Bynes or Emma Roberts, girls with real talent! Why aren't they phenoms on the TV???????????????????????????????????????

    Honestly, the vanity fair picture wasnt THAT bad and it's not like her fans (mostly younger kids) are going to read vanity fair, and her older fans like me dont really care or find it that bad. Also it's not like she's going to start stripping o Hannah Montana so I don't see why people would stop watching the show or make the two connected.

    hmmmm, I don't know if it's entirely her fault. I've heard that Annie convinced her to do it. I'm not sure about the full story, but I think that just because one episode suffered a bit, doesn't mean they all will. Personally, I was gonna see it, I simply forgot it was on. I did see it last night though. It was rather good.

    I don't get it why does everyone think it's a bad thing? So she took a elegant picture with a sheet covering her chest and lower back? Her dad was at the photo shoot and yes she is 15 but she's not prego (jamie lynn) or she isn't drink alcohol ( lohan) and she wears underware under clothes (paris, britney, etc..) give her a break! Yes it was a poor taste in wardrobe and she is a role model for younger kids but what kid reads Vanity Fair? Plus like 75% of the teens out there are already having sex or experimenting? Get over it!
