I am selfish, you are selfish, everyone is selfish. Just face the fact, the world is made up of a sorry bunch of selfish people. Does it mean that’s a bad thing? Not as such, there are good people out there. Though I am convinced that a lot of charity is mostly done by people to make them feel better about themselves. True selfless acts are rare these days (though they still exist) but that isn’t the subject here. It’s more the general idea of people being selfish.
So what does this have to be with celebrities or starlets in particular? Well, people tend to think only about themselves. Celebrities are there to serve a purpose, to entertain them. In this process it seems that people forgot that celebrities are one main thing; they are human. This isn’t the case for all people of course but at times it seems to be that way.
When people are fans they have some empathy for a certain celebrity, when they don’t like a celebrity they tend to act the same way as everyone else though. They get mad when someone says something bad about their favorite but they won’t hesitate to say something bad about another celebrity. Though I guess you can qualify that under general fan behavior, it’s not always a pretty sight. (more…)
Monday the 31st of August Wal Mart releases a so called EP of Miley Cyrus, named Times Of Our Lives. It isn’t quite an album, it’ isn’t a single but it is in between. Though with seven songs and a bit over 26 minutes of play time it’s getting quite close to what some artists consider to be a full album. Tims Of Our Lives is basically a way of promoting the clothing line Miley Cyrus has launched with Max Azria at Wal Mart. Though it’s not like they did a half-ass job of it, they put some energy into it though Miley herself doesn’t really seem to have had writing involvement. 
This isn’t going to be as long a review as normal, for the simple reason people by now know what to expect from a Hannah Montana soundtrack. One distinction has to be made though, Miley Cyrus may play Hannah Montana, she isn’t Hannah Montana. Hannah Montana 3 (what an original name) should be judged on its own as far as things like lyrics and pure music are concerned seeing she has no involvement writing it. She however does sing the songs, so that can be judged. She really isn’t anything like Hannah Montana if you think about it, on the show songs are handed to her which is also the case on this album. In real life however Miley is a heavily involved writer. 
So today the soundtrack for Hannah Montana: The Movie was released. To start with one thing; most of it is nothing like any previous Hannah Montana soundtrack. Part of it is though and it’s not surprising that it’s the Hannah Montana part but that’s only seven of the eighteen songs. It’s actually quite long for today’s standards with a playtime of pretty much exactly an hour.
