Hannah Montane Research Paper
Is Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus the innocent young teen you think she is? I can prove other wise. The real Miley Cyrus has a negative effect and is a bad role model for young girls along with her character in Disney Channel’s “Hannah Montana”. I volunteer in a first-grade classroom twice a week and have seen what kind of effect Hannah Montana has on girls as young as six years old. They all want to be just like the Hannah Montana character they watch on television. She has her own line of clothing, which first graders come to school wearing. It’s ridiculous. These children look up to her and want to copy whatever she does. When she is doing all the age-inappropriate things; they do not see what Miley is doing, instead they see what Hannah Montana is doing. Miley is not setting good examples. I THINK HER RAUNCHY DANCING, PROVOCATIVE CLOTHING AND PROMOTION OF BOY-GIRL RALATIONSHIPS IS HIGHLY INAPPROPRITE FOR HER TARGETED AUDIENCE. Miley Ray Cyrus is an American actress and pop singer. She became famous through her dual roles as Hannah Montana/Miley Stewart on Disney Channel’s sitcom Hannah Montana. She has also starred in several movies and television shows as well as recording six albums with fifty-one songs. Disney has never thought twice about selling the idea of first kisses to children. Can you name all eight princesses and who has kissed who (Assoc. Natural Psychology)? I can not! “During its first season, Hannah was the most popular show on television among viewers between the ages of six and 14. ...The Company also began to sell Hannah Montana clothing, dolls, and a CD of songs from the show” (Robson 29). The television series which targets pre-teen audiences debuted on March 24, 2006. It focuses on a girl who lives a double life as a normal teenager named Miley Stewart and a pop singer named Hannah Montana. In my opinion, the show Hannah Montana promotes early boy-girl relationships. It seems the only thing that really happens in each

    Early on in her life, Honey Harlow knew exactly what she wanted to become more than anything else in the world--a crime solving detective. Growing up reading Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's "Sherlock Holmes" and "Nancy Drew Mysteries" and watching old reruns of "Ellery Queen," "Columbo," and "Murder She Wrote," ignited her imagination for all things crooked, out of place, and not quite right. As if by design, her parents, old-school, wealthy philanthropists, Harris and Harper Harlow, had prophetically named their precious baby girl after the lead female character in the 60s short-running series, "Honey West." Two years later, the Harlow's welcomed their second child, a son they named Hunter, after Fred Dryer's character in the hit 80s TV series,…

    It might come as little surprise to discover that British parents have voted Miley Cyrus as the female celebrity they would least like as a role model for their children. In a poll of 2,287 parents with at least one child under 10, 78% voted Cyrus the worst example, followed by Nicki Minaj and Kim Kardashian. Meanwhile, the Duchess of Cambridge – who has, of course, made a career out of marrying a very famous and wealthy man – was ranked the best female role model for their kids. Would Cyrus, an inspiration to plenty of young women navigating their adolescence, sexuality and body hair, care? Probably not.…

    On August 25, 2013 the world watched in disgust as celebrity Miley Cyrus twerked and gyrated on stage at the Video Music Awards Show. People caused a fuss over her back up dancers all being African American women with large derrieres, her twerking, pointing to her feminine area on her body, pushing her face in one of her dancers derriere while smacking it, grinding on a foam finger, and grinding on a married man. The sociological perspective on deviance is described by “sociologist Howard S. Becker [as]: It is not the act itself, but the reactions to the act, that make something deviant” (Henslin 190). Although this behavior is deemed as normal in music videos and clubs, it was considered unacceptable because Miley Cyrus started her career as a child star on Disney Channel; a cable network that targets children of all ages. Miley started on a sitcom called Hannah Montana and quickly became popular with kids. Even though the star is now 20 years old and no longer work as Hannah Montana she is still considered that little girl from Disney and it shocked the world for her to behave in such a way.…
