Mom-approved Miley makes her mark at the Academy Awards
‘Tween star Miley Cyrus left her alter ego, Hannah Montana, at home as she made her mark at the Academy Awards earlier this week. In addition to being a presenter and appearing on the red carpet before the Oscars began, Cyrus was featured in Barbara Walters’ pre-show special.
Mothers of pre-teen girls around the country must have breathed a sigh of relief when Cyrus side-stepped making a criticism of pregnant Jamie Lynn Spears, but reaffirmed faith and family values as reasons why she will not find herself in Spears’ situation or in those of other troubled stars.
Many mothers approve of Cyrus as a role model for their young daughters, and have given her show, “Hannah Montana,” the thumbs up in their households. One New Jersey mom, however, said some of the songs the teen performs as Miley have a slightly more provocative slant than those sung by “Hannah.” Certain song lyrics and outfits worn by Cyrus in her concert movie raised the particular mother’s concern, but not enough to keep her daughter from watching the show.
