Who is Miley Cyrus

Hannah Montana - Pop Star Profile

Hannah Montana is a cute show about a 14 year old girl living a double life. By day she is Miley Stewart, an average teen girl living an average life, but by night she's Hannah Montana, teen pop sensation. Miley usually likes to keep her second life on the down low but in this collection she is tempted to throw caution to the wind and reveal her secret to the world.

Jake Ryan, a famous TV actor, enrolls at Miley's school and unlike her he absorbs all the attention. Jake gets everything his heart desires while Miley starts to get shafted (her locker is even moved to the basement to make room for Jakes mega star locker). Miley gets really irritated with the way everyone drools over Jake when she is just as (and maybe even more) famous then he is. Later on, however, she starts to see another side of Jake Ryan and a little crush develops.

This collection contains four episodes all revolving around Miley and Jake's relationship:

The New Kid in School:
Jake Ryan enrolls at Miley's school. She gets irritated with the way he gets special treatment.

More Then a Zombie to Me:
Hannah Montana gets a role on Jake's TV show. Miley discovers that she really does like Jake.

Good Golly, Miss Molly:
Miley loses a video tape of her confessing her love for Jake. Somehow it ends up in his possession. She needs to get it back.

People Who Use People:
Miley and Jake 'date' other people to make each other jealous. Jake and Miley confess their feelings for each other and become a couple, for a few minutes anyway.

There are two bonus features:

The Real Miley Cyrus:
An exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at the star of "Hannah Montana" and her real-life family including her superstar dad, Billy Ray Cyrus.

Nobody's Perfect:
A concert performance of one of Hannah's new songs, from the upcoming second season of the hit series

I love this show but these are no where near my favorite episodes. So I'm not sure whether or not I'll be picking up the collection myself but if these episodes appeal to you or yours by all means buy the DVD. -- Alexander Heaukulani (Hilo, HI)

"Hannah Montana-Pop Star Profile" takes four episodes of the highly popular Disney Channel series and boxes them into one disc which includes a brief feature on Miley Cyrus (Hannah/Miley Stewart) and a concert performance from the series. The four episodes focus on the relationship between Hannah and her secret crush, Jake Ryan (Cody Linley). For those unaware, Miley is the daughter of Billy Ray Cyrus of "Achy Breaky Heart" fame. Sure, that was his first and biggest hit, but there's a whole lot more to the man than that one song. He struggled for a long time with his band in order to make it. Unfortunately the Nashville machine destroyed a wonderful star before he really ever got started with his commercial success. Those years of struggle (and some solid values) bleed through on this DVD and the TV series as a whole. Cyrus' daughter doesn't dress or act like a tramp, respects her dad and other elders (as witnessed with her interaction with the legendary Dolly Parton who shows up as her aunt on one of the episodes), and is generally a very good kid. That, my friend, is rare in Hollywood these days.

The tween and early teen stars of the show are actually very fun to watch, and pull off some very comedic moments for kids and adults without having to make vulgar remarks or resort to sophomoric humor to get a laugh. Yes, it can get silly and giggly at times, but that's what life is like for youngsters between the ages of ten and fourteen. Cast members include Emily Osment (Lilly), Mitchel Musso (Oliver), Billy Ray Cyrus (Robbie) and Jason Earles as Miley's goofy brother, Jackson.

To top things off, the music featured in the series is actually very good pop music. It's clean, inoffensive pop that's never boring. Heck, I catch myself singing "Best Of Both Worlds" sometimes.

The bottom line is this: If you don't want your daughter (or son) copying the bratty, questionable looks and behavior of Avril Lavigne, Ashlee Simpson, or any other soon-to-be-former pop princesses, give "Hannah Montana" a shot. It's fun for the whole family. -- K. Fontenot "Prairie Cajun" (Way Down In Louisiana)

That's So Suite Life of Hannah Montana

Completely silly and crazy, but that is what makes it so great! Shows like this on Disney have completely zany characters!!!! The actors do a great job. Hannah Montanna sounds like she had her tounge peirced recently though, or is that how she always sounds? hahah. Out of the 3 shows that are merged, I found Hannah's show and character the lamest. :) Enjoy! -- Aaron Merkel (Kutztown, PA USA)

My granddaughter was delighted with this video so I am, too. I gave it a 5-stars rating because our gift was such a BIG HIT -- redmondbabe "Janice" (Redmond, WA)
