Ellen DeGeneres, bless her heart, suffered through an uncomfortable interview with the young Miley Cyrus, who doesn't act a day over 15. That's fine and all, since she is 15, but could she keep it together for, like, two minutes during an interview for poor Ellen's sake? This flopping around on the couch while giggling slumber party-style isn't exactly the most charming act we've ever seen. And guess what? Nobody really cares if you're dating this Justin kid. Just say "yes" or "no comment" like a normal person and move the interview along. Not everything needs to be a huge ploy for attention.
SO THAT'S WHAT THE KIDS ARE CALLING IT THESE DAYS • "Billy Ray Cyrus says his 15-year-old daughter Miley and 20-year-old underwear model Justin Gaston are making sweet music together. 'I'll tell you what — they are great friends, and they make a good team,' he told Usmagazine.com at Monday's Bolt premiere in L.A. 'They write a lot of songs together, and they sing — it's incredible.'"

Barbara Walters released the names of some of her Most Fascinating People for 2008. Among the lucky losers are Will Smith (uh, why?), Tom Cruise (again, why?), Miley Cyrus, Tina Fey, Frank Langella, Rush Limbaugh and Michael Phelps. We agree with a few, but overall it looks to be another snoozefest.
After the jump: Mollygood's Most Fascinating People for 2008. Feel free to add to the list. CONTINUED »
Obama fever has, for better or worse, officially extended to include his two adorable daughters, Malia and Sasha. We wonder about which schools they'll go to in DC, and they are fashion trendsetters for the elementary-school set. With all of this attention directed their way, there's a line just asking to be crossed.
On the bad side of that line would be an appearance on Hannah Montana. Billy Ray Cyrus, father of Miley, the show's star, told Access Hollywood that he invited the younger Obamas to make a guest appearance on the show (for ratings, obviously) and that they "probably will." Over Michelle and Barack's dead body, I think.
TELL THAT TO THE FEDS "Miley Cyrus is playing coy when it comes to her 20-year-old beau, model Justin Gaston. … Cyrus — who turns 16 on Nov. 23 — said she was miffed that 'everyone started judging us as soon as we started hanging out. After my last two years, there's been a lot of things that happened, so I've learned just not to judge anyone and go into our friendship with an open mind and not really worry about the age or anything.'"
Update: And now she wants to move into her own apartment! Because things like age and boundaries don't matter.
• Miley Cyrus' hanger-on boyfriend might be just a little bit gay. [DListed]
• Sarah Jessica Parker spent $250 on a pair of two-tone Chanel pantyhose. Just like us! [Yeeeah]
• Jessica Biel has decided to dabble in singing, because that always works out so well for actresses. [ICYDK]
• Tila Tequila is still alive and slutting it up. [HT]
• Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie will get married when their children ask them to. Wait, whatever happened to waiting for the gays? [INO]
• Beyonce is Sasha Fierce. Also: Delusional. [PS]
Raven Symone, a Cosby Show alum and former Disney star (before Miley Cyrus came along), is evidently a paparazzi target. Why any publications would want to run pictures of Raven is beyond us — this girl typically keeps to herself and doesn't do anything scandalous or exciting. Until now.
See, Raven has some sort of issue with her eyebrows. They don't look like typical eyebrows, so she normally has to fill them in. One day she got lazy and didn't take the time to do that (understandable), and the paparazzi snapped away, which led to people making fun of her eyebrows and weight issues. Up until this point we're on Raven's side — but then she had to take to her MySpace, of all places, and give us a Kanye-esque caps lock tirade of epic proportions. There's lots of exclamation points and typos, just to keep it real.
We thought about breaking it up into multiple paragraphs for your reading pleasure, but this is the way Raven intended to write her rant, so we must respect her wishes. Good luck reading the block of anger (after the jump). CONTINUED »
Miley Cyrus, the most appropriate 15-year-old to come out of Disney in recent years, was spotted rooting on her pretty 20-year-old boyfriend, Justin Gaston, as he walked the Christian Audigier runway during LA Fashion Week. Looks like being Miley's illegal boy toy comes with perks — and a little underage tongue action. Ick.

• How long until Paris Hilton gets herself one of these monkey servants? [DListed]
• The hardest working dog in Hollywood is also likely covered in STDs, poor thing. [HT]
• Miley Cyrus' dad approves of his 15-year-old daughter's 20-year-old boyfriend. But if we've learned anything, it's that Billy Ray doesn't exactly exercise the best judgment. [INO]
• You were right: We can no longer tell Mary-Kate and Ashley apart. [PS]
• The Brangelina children love Cheetos, y'all. Britney would be proud. [ICYDK]
• Courtney Love had gastric bypass surgery. Um, did she need it? [Yeeeah]
Miley Cyrus shut down Disneyland Sunday in celebration of her 16th birthday … which is on Nov. 23. Why she wanted to celebrate seven weeks early is beyond us, but the teenager has more money than any of us will see in our lifetimes, so who are we to argue with her logic? The party featured a performance by father Billy Ray Cyrus and four songs from Miley. This sounds awful.
Guests in attendance included Miley's 20-year-old boyfriend Justin Gaston, David Archuleta, Steve Carell, Jennie Garth, Cindy Crawford and Jennifer Love Hewitt. We just lost a bunch of respect for JLH, because the other celebs have children — what was her excuse? Tyra Banks was also reportedly at the shindig but wasn't photographed. Um, what? Is Ty Ty OK? We don't believe this for a second. Why would she show up to a 16-year-old's birthday party if there wasn't a photo op in it for her?

The intolerable Cyrus family has been relatively quiet over the past few days, but that doesn't mean the famewhores haven't been busy: Sources say that Miley and father Billy Ray are desperately trying to get fired from their Hannah Montana gigs because the deluded idiots think they no longer need the Disney show. Naturally, it all boils down to money: Billy Ray believes "there is more money in singing than a Disney cable show," so he and his daughter have been showing up late to work, stalling production and causing drama among the cast and crew. Not surprising.
Miley is predictably enjoying all of the attention — which has been scarce since her ex-boyfriend Nick Jonas started dating another (arguably better) Disney tween star — and she issued the following statement:
I am fully committed to Hannah Montana. It's what gave me this amazing opportunity to reach out to so many people. I couldn't do it alone. We have an amazing cast that is so supportive, including my dad who has been there for me every step of the way.
Hey, Disney? Keep the Cyrus twits in that contract as long as possible, just to make them suffer. Thanks.

For those of you wondering what Miley Cyrus' new boyfriend, Justin Gaston, is like, here's a lovely clip of the underwear model attempting to launch his singing career via YouTube. The problem is, he should never open his mouth. To further prove this point, he starts out the clip with some nonsensical mumblings about how he's in LA and it's cloudy and that's why he's pointing outside and OH DEAR XENU why is this guy allowed on the Internet? Shouldn't he be off somewhere looking pretty?
You have to hand it to Lindsay Lohan: The girl is persistent. After sending a text to Debbie Phelps in which she claimed Michael was "f–king amazing," LiLo attempted to appear with him onstage at the MTV VMAs. (Um, hello? Samantha Ronson?) There was one small problem: Disney brat Miley Cyrus also wanted in on the Phelps love, according to a source who introduced a new vocabulary word.
It was nightmate. Both Lindsay and Miley were wildly excited at the prospect of waltzing on-stage with Michael, so producers proposed draping one on each arm — but the girls did not want to be with each other and neither would back down!
It was nightmate?! Wow, this is worse than we thought. Of course, as we all saw, Michael did his bit alone, sans any annoying starlets. Nightmate averted.
Say hello to Miley Cyrus' new boyfriend and church buddy, Justin Gaston. Justin is the ripe age of 20 while Miley is a mere 15 years old, but age is just a number, right? This strapping young lad was on Nashville Star, where he looked good but sang horribly (proof here). But that's not his day job, which you can click through to admire (slightly NSFW).
We can only hope that after this photo was taken Britney Spears told the Jonas Brothers to run for their lives. If there's anything interesting about the VMAs, it's the interactions behind the scenes between stars who would normally never speak to each other.

Celebrity photographer Anne Leibovitz, who's convinced everyone from John Lennon to Miley Cyrus to get naked for her camera, is allegedly as greedy as she is increasingly trite. To wit:

You know America is going downhill when one of the day's big stories centers around a 15-year-old and her high school breakup music. The song in question is Miley Cyrus' "7 Things," which grown adults speculate is about her bitter split with Nick Jonas. We have a hard time caring about any artist whose lyrics include, "My best friend Lesley said oh she's just being Miley," but this is what happens when Britney gets her life back in order.

Even an innocent bag of candy provides fodder for endless Miley Cyrus jokes. Who knew guitars had such an odd shape?
