Obama girls to appear on Hannah Montana
Filed under: Celeb Kids
Technically, at this point, ten-year-old Malia and seven-year-old Sasha Obama have only been offered a chance to appear on Hannah Montana, but there can only be one possible answer: "OMG!!! YES!!! no-way-this-is-so-unbelievable - I-have-to-call-everyone-RIGHT-NOW - what-will-I-wear - I-can't-believe-it!" which roughly translates as "Yes, please." Of course, what their parents say is another question and, frankly, more than any other father right now, I think what Barack Obama says, goes.But assuming parental approval, Billy Ray Cyrus, father of Miley and the man responsible for the song Achy Breaky Heart, hints that it may happen around April, when "Hannah Montana: The Movie" hits theatres. As for Miley, she's in favor of having the girls on the show: "I think that would be really cool and if anything, have them visit the set."
Barack Obama has admitted that Malia is a big fan of the show but has also tried to keep the girls out of the spotlight. Still, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and, after all, isn't this sort of thing the real reason you run for president?
How to Survive a Holiday Party
Whether you like it or not, we've arrived at the season set aside for far-off family, long lost friends, and everyone else you'd rather not see on a regular basis -- hooray for the holidays! Some of these soirees are once-a-year opportunities to touch base with loved ones and share some good cheer -- and others feel like incredibly painful skiing accidents happening in slow motion. Avoid social catastrophe with a few easy tips.

Don't get drunk. You sound dumb, you act dumb, and you're twice as likely to hit on your brother's smokin' hot wife in a totally inappropriate way. You see these people once a year, at least let them see you sober.
Getty Images
If you must talk politics, keep it general. Whether you hope Barack Obama is the world's savior, or you're pulling for President Palin in 2012, you're asking for a fight when the party gets partisan. Stick to discussing the "historical significance" of this election (or something equally as benign), and leave the policy debate for some other time.
Getty Images
Stop showing off. It's great that your breast augmentation surgery was so successful, and totally understandable that you want to flaunt your hot new bod -- but now is not the time, so put that cleavage away! Nor is this appropriate occasion for your fancy new $10,000 watch (unless your friends and family are all really loaded). Everyone wants to impress their relatives, but dressing too sexy or flashy will only remind your loved ones that you can be self-centered, irritating and tacky.
Getty Images
Keep your hands to yourself. We're all delighted that things are so hot and heavy between you and your significant other. But seriously, no one wants to watch you tongue wrestle in public. And if you want the fam to warm up to your new beau, play it safe and maintain at least a moderate level of decorum.
Getty Images
Show up. Trying as they may be, you see these people once a year, and you love them. Don't make excuses, don't wander in "fashionably late" or rush off to some other party. Get there on time, stay until the end, and enjoy yourself.
Getty Images
Quit complaining. There's nothing that kills a party faster than someone whose life sucks. Admit it: Sometimes good things to happen to you. If you can't focus on the positive, at least try to keep quiet.
Getty Images
Don't grill the newbies. Your neice's new boyfriend doesn't need to be interrogated -- particularly about his background. So remember: Even if you're simply curious about the origin of his "ethnic-sounding" name, you might make him uncomfortable (and will probably sound a little racist).
Getty Images
Avoid, at all costs, commenting on other people's kids. Yes, they look funny. Sure, they're getting fat. And behind closed doors everyone agrees that little Susie is an obnoxious, insufferable brat. But any parent will immediately begin plotting your demise the moment you criticize their child. Fawn over their cuteness (even if you're lying) and be done with it.
Getty Images
Take a break from obsessing over your diet. No-carb, low-fat, vegan, macrobiotic, lacto-ovo-semi-demi-blah-blah-blah. You're a guest, and it won't kill you to eat a couple slices of cheese. (Or if it bothers you that much, snack before the party -- the world doesn't revolve around your dietary restrictions.)

| Of course - it's a dream come true! | |
|---|---|
| Absolutely not - I wouldn't want my kids associated with that show. | |
| I have boys and do not know what you're talking about. |

Bea said...Saw Miley for the 1st time on Jay Leno last night and she was a pathetic loud mouth. (In fact I got so repulsed I finally turned it off) I can understand why preteen girls might be lured in by all the hype but for parents to let their own girls be part of this crap boggles my mind. So Obama's girls might be disappointed when he says 'no' but life is full of disappointments.

bbloupe said...Like others have said before me Zack and Cody are NOT ''spoiled rich kids'' they are only living in a hotel with some rich and famous people because their mom is the cabaret singer and as part of her contract she gets to live there. So their mom WORKS for a living just like the peoplke who zack and cody SOMETIMES annoy. But in the end they all love eachother like family. So whoever wrote this article or the little footnotes under the pictures need to get their facts straight. They even spelled the name of the show wrong. Its ZACK not ZACH. And they even said that wizards of waverly place was on NICK when its really on DISNEY. So in the future, do your research.

Fred Perrotti said...It is going to be so refreshing watching this young, intense, loving family frolicking around the White House. What a dynamic example this will set for families throughout the world.The girls were brought up with all the right values and conduct themselves publicly just as the gentle young ladies they are. Kudos to mom and dad. God Bless this first family of our nation as they settle into their new home. I am so proud of the American people who made this time possible.

elle said...AGAIN! dAMM IF HE DOES, DAMM IF HE DOESN'T!
HE CAN'T DO ANYTHING RIGHT, SO WHAT IF THE KIDS APPEAR ON A KIDS SHOW, THEY ARE CUTE GIRLS, CAN BRING REFRESHMENT LIKE THE KENNEDY'S DID INTO THE WHITE HOUSE, IF ONLY YOU ALL WOULD SIT BACK AND LET THEM HAVE A LIFE. WATCH INSTEAD OF COMMENTING, WE MISS JOHN JOHN, CAROLYN HAS TURNED INTO A CHARMING WOMAN, WHO WOULD BELIEVE HER AGE! LIFE GOES ON, IF WE LET IT.
HOW MUCH HARM IS THERE IN THEM APPEARING ON A KIDS SHOW, THEY WEREN'T IN THE SPOTLITE DURING THE CHAMPAIGN, THEY HAVE TO GIVE UP ALOT OF PARENT TIME, SO BIG DEAL. SORRY IT'S THEM AND NOT YOUR KIDS,.
YEARS AGO THERE WAS A TV TRUCK SHOW, THAT HAD A TRUCKER ON THE ROAD WITH HIS BEAR, MY SONS LOVED THAT SHOW AND ONE DAY AT A TRUCK STOP IN ATLANTA WHO WAS THERE TAPING IT THEM. WE WERE A FAMOUS TRUCKER BACK IN 1979 AND YES MY SONS GOT ON THE SHOW! IT'S WHO YOU KNOW AND BEING IN THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME. SO ACCEPT IT AND LET LIFE GO ON

bbloupe said...You are right. The problem is not just with Bush because even though he is basically the head of the country ALL decisions are not made by him. But I do have to disagree about the later part of your coment. The real question is where would white people be without black people? Back when white people first came to this country formerly known as "the new world'' they couldnt do SHIT on their own. They had to go all the way to africa to get slaves to build this country up to what it is today. So actually Black people were the ones who first made this country. Building buildings, paving roads, building the economy up by picking cotton and etc. Today all kinds of people help shape this country. Not just blacks and whites either. So next time you make a comment like this you should get your facts straight.

mark said...Roger Sinashon's most important point as author of this story is that, in his own view, he believes that politicians get elected to office mainly out of personal self-interest to receive gifts and favors for themselves and their families. Roger Sinashon used reasoning to justify Miley Cyrus' offer to the Obama girls to appear on the show by saying, "Still, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and, after all, isn't this sort of thing the real reason you run for president?" Roger is right in my opinion that politicians mostly care about personal greed before public service. However, in the case of our new President Barak Obama, this culture of corruption is coming to an end. Roger is wrong in my opinion related to the motives of our First family. I believe President Barak Obama and his family will put people first, politics last, and promote principles all peoples will joyfully follow.

Andrew said...id just like to add that for all black people racism is no longer a valid fight.you cant pull the racist card.cuz if you havent checked we have a black president.so obviously racism isnt a factor in this country

Lovey said...It's sad, but as long as we have hatred, racism will still be a factor. And it is funny how you think because we have a black president that racism ends there. One can only pray that it will stop. Obama is not the only great hope, there is a such thing as a greater power; God.

Andrew said...i didnt say it ended lol.i kno better.its just useless now and will only further destroy us. and we are all beyond praying for salvation.its too late and we all shall feel gods wrath soon enough

imjovized said...You people are all crazy! First, Thanks "angie" because as soon as I saw that explanation of Suite Life w/ Zac and Cody, I thought seriously these people need to have their facts straight before they open their mouths! And as for Miley Cyrus...the kids love her. Personally, I think Hannah Montana is the funniest show out there. I watch it even when my kids are not home!! I think we should all leave her alone. My goodness. She is a teenager growing up in a crazy world with the media ready to tear her apart. I feel bad for all these young people in the spotlight, they get a bum deal. I thik Obama's girls should go for it!
