Miley Cyrus' Mom Chaperones By Text

Miley Cyrus' mother keeps a close eye on her pop star daughter during dates, by bombarding her with intrusive text messages.
The 15-year-old teen sensation is allowed out on dates with her 20-year-old boyfriend Justin Gaston, without a physical chaperone - because her mum, Leticia, has found other ways of checking up on her superstar daughter.
Cyrus explains, "If you look at my text inbox, it's mom, mom, mom, mom. She'll send them constantly."
Miley Cyrus takes on diabetes

Disney decided to cancel Miley Cyrus' Hannah Montana episode on diabetes and she is not a happy camper. However, Miley knows there's more ways than one to skin a cat. She's fighting back in her own way to support the cause.
One of Miley's closest friends and for a while, rumored romantic interest, Nick Jonas, suffers from diabetes. So this is obviously something that's close to her heart and she was probably looking forward to doing a show about the issue. But, since Disney is no longer allowing that to happen, Miss Cyrus has taken matters into her own hands.
She's been spotted abroad for the past couple of weeks carrying water bottles from a company called Hint, who coincidentally just launched a diabetes-minded campaign called, "Drink Water, Not Sugar."
Miley Cyrus' First Job? Cleaning Toilets!

On the Nov. 7 episode of The Tyra Banks Show, Miley Cyrus reveals her first job: Cleaning toilets!
"I had one normal job and I actually liked it," said the "Hannah Montana" singer (who earned $18.2 million last year). "I worked at this place called Sparkles Cleaning Service and I cleaned houses. I was, like, 11 ... I can scrub a toilet."
Next up for the teen queen: Her 16th birthday on Nov. 23.
She told Banks about her dream car - a Mercedes.
"I want it black and then just the little Mercedes signs to be pink," she said. "I would like the stitching and steering wheel to be pink."
She celebrated her Sweet 16 seven weeks early, on Oct. 5, in Disneyland. More than 5,000 guests (many of whom paid $250) partied with her at the Anaheim, Calif., theme park, which was shut down for the day.
Asked what she wanted at the time, she said, "My parents shut down Disneyland for me," she told the AP, "so I'm good for a while."

Miley Cyrus Begs for First Car

"I am begging [to get my first car]", Miley Cyrus tells Mario Lopez of "Extra" while making a guest stint on the syndicated entertainment news magazine show.
Miley Cyrus will turn 16 years old next month and just like most other teenagers at her age, she wants to get her own car. Joining Mario Lopez as a guest co-host of "Extra", she confesses, "I am begging [to get my first car]" adding, "I got to go take my test first - I don't really want to go get my picture taken. It's, like, really hard to pick out your outfit. I was the dummy that asked, 'Can you give your own picture?'"

Prior to her early star-studded birthday bash, held at California's Disneyland back on October 5, Miley had made public her wish list, telling Radio Disney among the thing she wanted most for her presents is a car. Describing the brand new car she'd been dreaming of, she revealed that she wanted "to get something bad on the road." She went on detailing that the car must be "big enough for all" her friends and "to scare" any other cars on the road. "I'm a good driver but it's everyone else that I'm worried about!" she jokingly said at that time.
As for her actual birthday, which is on November 23, Miley tells Mario she will be heading back home to Nashville to perform at the American Music Awards. "That's my birthday present, to go back home," she says.
Switching the topic into her rumored boyfriend Justin Gaston, Miley claims she regrets addressing rumors on them dating in a recent interview with Ryan Seacrest's Los Angeles KIIS-FM radio show during which she said they were "very happy" together. "It's hard, because anytime you say anything, it's like the next day, Google alert!" she explains. "Oh my goodness, I wish I would have just shut up. Everyone else is in a frenzy about something that meant nothing for [me] to say."
During her guest stint on "Extra", Miley also sets the record straight on the false mounting rumors claiming she's leaving "Hannah Montana." "No! We've got too many episodes to finish ... I am staying with the show," she insists. "It's so much fun. We have a really good time -- as much as it's really hard work, it's really great."

Is Justin Gaston living with Miley Cyrus? Oh, NO!

The newspaper is citing reports that the "Hannah Montana" star and and her new 20-year-old boyfriend, Justin Gaston, are already living together.
Under her parents' roof!
Justin has his own apartment but has spent most nights in the Cyruses' California house, the tab reports. Tish and Billy Ray Cyrus are reportedly so taken with the underwear model/wannabe singer they’ve let him move in.
“Justin is the guy Miley’s parents see her settling down with a few years down the line,” their snitch says. “He’s handsome, talented, clean-living, goes to church and knows his Bible -- a real catch.”
"He actually reminds me a lot of myself when I was 20 years old and I was living and searching for the dream," Billy Ray told Access Hollywood. "He's got a great heart and soul, and a lot of determination. I think that's the true measure of a man, is when you measure his heart."
The insider adds: “Billy Ray wasn’t born yesterday. He figures the safest path to take is to keep Miley and Justin on a short leash-and under the same roof.”
Yeah, 'cause look how well that worked out for Lynne Spears. She reportedly allowed her 15-year-old daughter Jamie Lynn Spears and her older boyfriend Casey Aldridge to live together. And we all know how that ended.
Do not be fooled by that purity ring, Tish and Billy Ray!
Miley Cyrus is hunting for her very own apartment. At the Palazzo in Park LaBrea? At 16? She may have already celebrated her sweet sixteen but it isn't official until Nov. 23! Anyway, that's what the Star says.
Miley Cyrus is Hovering
Miley Cyrus poses pretty in a plaid vest at a photocall at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Berlin, Germany on Monday.The 15-year-old Hannah Montana star has a fun collaboration in the works with her older half-brother, Metro Station frontman Trace Cyrus.
“[We] worked on a song together called ‘Hovering’,” Trace tells PopEater. “[Miley] just informed me that we might do a music video for that and push towards alternative radio. It’s kind of a more rock, edgy song for her, but I love the song. It’s great.”
‘Hovering‘ will be featured on the platinum-edition of Miley’s ‘Breakout‘ album, due out in stores November 18th.

FBI Raids Miley Cyrus' Hacker
The Tennessee apartment of Josh Holly, the admitted hacker who bragged about breaking into Cyrus' old email account and posting racy pictures of the teen star online, was raided Monday morning in connection with his alleged dirty deeds, reports Wired.com's Threat Level blog.
The FBI did not immediately return calls for comment, but Cyrus' attorney, William Sobel, tells E! News, "This is an ongoing investigation and we appreciate the efforts of the FBI." Agents, ar
med with a thick file on Holly's recent online activities, served the 19-year-old Monday morning in Murfreesboro, Tenn., with a search warrant and a list of items they were looking for. They ultimately seized three of Holly's computers and his phone, but no arrest was made. No charges have been filed to date.
"I guess somebody ended up ratting me out," Holly told Threat Level. "I was just kind of shaking. I was thrown way off guard. I've never had anything like this happen before to a point that I just didn't know what to do. I was afraid to kick them out of my house."
