Hannah Montana in Vanity Fair

I never knew that.

I could be wrong, I don't think she was a Disney employee beyond MMC. I remember seeing an E! THS about her, and she returned to Louisiana after MMC was cancelled.

Yeah so what is Daemonseid talking about? Was Disney supposed to care about her sexy antics after she was no longer an employee?

That's like Bill Cosby weighing in on Lisa Bonet in Angel Heart after she was no longer a Cosby Kid--although she will always be a Cosby Kid.

Cosign.

If she takes a page out of Raven's book, she'll be 40 years old still doing Hannah Montana.

Cosign to that too.

Yeah, but her fan demographics won't change, which means less money in the long run.

I get what you're saying. She can have a long lasting career without sex. The only reason that Raven has had a career without sex is because she is still catering to the tweens. And personally, she should have jumped that ship a long time ago. Now I admire Hillary Duff for leaving LM when she did.

Yes.

And she can be 15 (famous or not famous) and not monopolize on SEX.

There will always be 6-14 yr olds in the world to enjoy Hannah Montana... even if her current fan base grows out of it, a fresh crop are well on their way to being in that age group... if there are always kids that age, there will be parents to buy them all the HM stuff

^^^I think Julia Stiles started out in NY on stage and in commercials, etc., as a kid before getting into movies as an older teen (but still a teen).

And don't forget Helen Hunt -- anyone remember the after school special where she was QB on the football team?

Quarterback Princess ROCKED! It's on every couple of years. I always try and catch it and I always cry when she finds out after practice that her teammates bought her a dress. Sigh.

ok almost all of the stars that we see now started when they were young. including Forest Whitaker's funny looking self on Fast Times at Ridgemont High. woohoo!!! But he might've been like 20, as are many stars who play high school students.
