Call Her Hannah Karenina

Posted Apr 22, 08 5:27 PM CDT in Arts & Living 

(Newser) – Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus, 15, has signed a seven-figure deal with Disney-Hyperion for a memoir, the New York Times reports today. The book will focus on her childhood in Tennessee and the positive influence of her mother on her career. It is scheduled to be released in spring 2009, coinciding with the upcoming Hannah Montana film.

“It’s rare that you hear from someone her age that they want to talk about their family,” said Disney Book group's global publisher. “How she sees her family in light of everything that she’s exposed to on a daily basis is pretty incredible.”

  • Hannah Montana: Plagiarist?

    Hannah Montana: Plagiarist? It’s not easy being a rockstar. Just ask Miley Cyrus, who’s just finished apologizing for sultry Annie Leibovitz shots that shocked some of her fans (or at least their parents) and now is being accused of ripping off her new song “Rockstar,” the New York Post reports. The band Lustra says the song is too similar to their “Scotty Doesn’t Know” to be a coincidence, and they’re mulling legal action against Cyrus.
