'08
It seems that even a celebrity parent can sometimes put aside the best interests of his kids’ TV show and suggest that, just maybe, being on TV is less than glamorous. Or that raising your kid as a mini-celeb is also perhaps a little dangerous. Billy Ray Cyrus now claims that Malia and Sasha Obama are unlikely to appear on Hannah Montana, as he previously suggested.
“It’s a double-edge sword for me because first of all, I have a great deal of respect for President-elect Obama,” Cyrus said. “I just mentioned about them being on the show, and it snowballed.”
Cyrus says he isn’t sure it was a good idea for Obama’s daughters to be on TV, anyway.
“As a daddy, I’ll say to him what I say to any daddy, you may not want your daughter to get into show business,” he warned. “But if the girls want to be on the show, and him and his wife think it’s a good idea, I always say, everything in life, what’s meant to be will happen.”
Billy Ray brings up quite a few good points here, considering that the girls are going to have a hard enough time being the president’s daughters in the public spotlight. However, if they appear on Hannah Montana then they go beyond being children of a famous person onto being celebrities themselves, which sort of allows the media to expose them more.
Hopefully the girls get a chance to visit the set or something fun like that though, because it is going to be very hard to explain to 7 and 10 year olds why they can’t appear on their favorite show.
Unfortunately Billy Ray hasn’t thought this through with his own child, and is allowing her to date a 20 year old underwear model. Miley’s boyfriend has put out a new song titled ‘too much too young’. However he seems by far more interested in Billy Ray than he is in chipmunk faced Miley.
“I met Billy Ray on the show and just became friends with the whole family. And they’re such a great family,” Justin explained. “I moved [to LA] two years ago and started a modeling career and that’s kind of just to break into the music business and everything.”
At least if he’s only interested in using Miley for his career I guess he’s less likely to do something that could land him in jail.

um, GOOD … Jeeze. Hope nobody was even considering this.
-
Miley is the hardest working 15 year old in the world! I seriously don’t know how she doesn’t go insane. What happened to the caps on her top teeth? Did they fall off doing something naughty?
-
I feel for Miley she just is not a child at all. Billy Ray should have taken his won advice before letting her release nude candids as a way of promoting her career. Didn’t that boyfriend move in with them? Nice parenting Billy.
I doubt the Obama kids can go on those shows. Obama is anti excessive TV for kids. With such intelligent parents, I hope the children are raised tobe something of substance. I don’t think showbiz is substance.
-
Yeah right, like there is even a “slightest” chance that ever going to happen to Obama’s girls. Bet when Billy Ray initially suggested, Michelle gave him the evil eye!
-
I love how Billy Ray considers himself a worthy adviser to other fathers, especially considering his own daughter has evolved into a tiresome, self-important skank. Great job, Billy. Really, you’re a hero to parents everywhere.
-
…and Billy Ray gets one more day of press.
I doubt a guest appearance was ever really in the works.
-
Even if the idea had been tossed around or an offer made, I have no doubt that the Obamas would’ve declined to let their kids on the show. I’ve read a couple of articles that mention that they regret letting their daughters appear on “Access Hollywood” or “Extra” or whatever show they all were in in spring ‘07.
All I have to say is that I really hope this Hannah Montana crap is over with when my girls are a little older because every time I see Miley Cyrus my blood pressure rises.

Haha i cant figure out if that guy is really stupid or really smart…i think hes really smart he sounds like hes using her to get a start on his career which is a good move & i bet you just about anything they have already slept together
-
Miley’s really perfecting that porn star expression while she’s grabbing that microphone.
-
Obama’s kids? yeah shes a bad influence.
OBAMA ‘08, yes we can<3
-
the kids at home loves Hanna Montana. I also watched this show from time to time and Miley Cyrus is really fit for this role.
