the Hannah Montana syndrome[edited]

(This is not as long as you think!! hö-hö)
The Hannah Montana phenomenon, where do we even start?
Disneychannel launched the TV show "Hannah Montana" 2006, about a girl who double life as a superstar (Hannah Montana) and at the same time tries to live a normal life. Miley Cyrus was 14 when the show hit the road and her career took off in rocket speed, ev-e-ry 8 year old in the United States LOVED her.
It didn't take long before she was everywhere, every premiere (she was at the HP order of the phoenix premiere in L.A), every award show (she was at the Oscars '08 and even presented an award!), every magazine cover....you get the point. She would strut around in her glitter dresses and sing songs with messages like: "I'm a superstar now but underneath it all I'm just like you" and "Nobody is perfect, you gotta make it right". All encouraging and inspiring songs for her the whole generation of youngsters for fans. The whole American population (yeah i'm also talking about the parents, they LOVE her) adored the good cute girl.

Here's the deal, she started out as this cute girl on Disneychannel and have changed quit a bit since then, or at least we think she changed, what if the whole goodgirl thing was an image? ;)Just a year and a half after her oh-so-great role model image would take a great turn. Suddenly pictures of her posing half-naked or drunk get's spread all over the internet like som ultra virus. I, personally, didn't really believe in the rumours at first but got convinced when I saw them with my own eyes. What happened to the role model all 8 year old would look up to? You know, one person's "intimate" photos doesn't "just" get spread over the internet like that, the photos have to be uploaded on the internet in the first place (personal myspace or some other communities). Come on who believes in the excuse of "someone hacked my iPhone.." *puppy eyes*??! Which leaves us to the fact that she had in mind to show these photos to someone or maybe even wanted to show everyone. (search on youtube and they'll come up immediately)

At the same time there's this contant buzzing rumour about her dating the youngest Jonas Brother, Nick Jonas. Is it true?! Is it not true?! Why does Miley have Nick's dog tag why does Miley hug Nick? and so it continues. This is actually the point which is most interesting for me (since I'm a Jonas Brothers fan).
We never got to know if they dated even after the constant questions all from Ellen Degeneres to some random paparazzi fellow. They always denied , well I don't know for sure about Miley, but I do know everytime Miley comes of speech with Jonas Brothers, Nick would get a bit uncomfortable and say "We're really good friends..blablabla". We were not convinced though, soon enough pictures of Miley wearing Nick's dog tag (diabetes tag) or just Miley and Nick together circeled the internet. Something is not right....
Personally I've always thought there were something about them, like dated one time or so but nothing major.

Now almost a year after the rumours started, Miley decides to come out of the closet. Yes, she and Nick dated for a long time. And during that time Nick was basically her 24/7, he was everything on her mind, and when he broke up she was more or less devastated. She dyed her hair black and got into the whole goth/rock thing, because when they were together, Nick had suggested that she would get blonde highlights (which she also did) and when they broke up she wanted to rebel against everything Nick liked.
And when that is out, it explains "7 things". A song off Miley's new album and even from the release of it, people started to talk about at least we JB fans did...(höhöhö) The song is about 7 things Miley hate about an ex. "You're vain, your games. You're insecure. You love me, you like her..." and so it goes on. In the video she constantly holds and even kisses her necklace, which looks mysteriously much like Nick's dog tag and there's also this quick sequence when she holds up a photo of her and this "guy" she's singing about, the guys face is crossed out but it looked very much like Nick.
When I first saw this video, I was almost convinced it was about Nick. (We JB fans know Nicks dog tag when we see it ! XD) So she was so mad and crushed that she had to make this song and on top of that almost tell the world that it is about Nick Jonas by doing that music video. (It is now confirmed that it really IS about Nick Jonas, auch!)


What made her suddenly to decide to tell the world about their relationship? Why did she take those photos?
About her photos I think, not every person goes around and take photos of oneself naked. (I kow I haven't) No, a person must have that little "feature" in them even when they seem to be the most cute and innocent kid. I guess she really adored her flat stomach and wanted people to know about it too, some people are just like that. So I don't get why those people always" remember the Hannah Montana days when she was so cute and innocent?", she's young and famous it almost comes natural. All people mature (even celebrities!) and they intend to try on things.
As for her latest album "Breakout" she sings about the 7 things she hates about Nick Jonas and other "groundbreaking" things. What does the paretns think about her now, huh?! (XD)
When stars have grown up with the Disney standards they'll most pften come to the point they want to break free and do their own thing. It's Miley Cyrus time now.

Maybe you haven't noticed it but (I know I have!) the Jonas Brothers career have really exploded the last years and they become more and more popular as each day passes by. Maybe she thought; it really was me in the beginning who introduced these boys into the world (they were a sort of opening act for her "Hannah Montana/Miley Curys tour") and why have the apprentice exceeded the master?
Maybe she wanted to get connected with JB again or just wanting to get straight with who the real Disneychannel star is around here.

I saw the Hannah Montana concert in 3-D today (for Jonas Brothers of course) and that started..all this.

Epic movie this way comes[edited]


I sense another Epic movie coming this way, called "Push". As I have understood it, it's supposed to be Heroes taken on the big-screen crossing Jumper crossing the Dark knight.

The movie is about a Nick Gant (Chris Evans, my fave. superhero actor! XD), whose father was genetically altered to be the perfect government assassin. After his father gets brutally murdered Nick swears revenge on the agency, Division, that caused his fathers death.
Nick starts to gather a group of psychic individuals to bring "Division" down, which have created and experiment with psychic drugs for years. He eventually teams up with Cassie Holmes(Dakota Fanning, she made me interested in this movie in the first place, DAKOTA!), who can see the future, and starts to track down a girl who have survived and escaped being an experiment of Division.

Okey, that summary literally sucked but I hope I got you at least a little interested. The movie premieres 6th febuary in the U.S and I CAN'T wait. Dakota with superpowers does it get any better than this? (I don't think so) The movie has also a great cast such as Camilla Belle and Djimon Hounsou.


Thanks again for everyone who have taken part of the poll! 26 votes that's awesome! :D

Hey There Delilah (Plain White T's) , answered 2 voters

Close call between A litte bit longer and Lovebug I must say, during the whole week they had about the same votes. I''ll see what I will do about the videos but I know for sure that at least one video is coming up very soon. Patience! XD
A new Poll will up as usual, let's vote!

Miley or TH? -the new "plague or cholera"

Just a quick update...THE VMA's. Disastrous...no jk. The boys neither won the Best Pop video nor the Best video of the year, which BOTH went to Mrs Britney Spears. Well let's all hope she gets her act together after this, stealing two awards from the boys! :'( Just kidding.

Otherwise I thought JB's performance of Lovebug (which is also their new single!!) was worth watching the awards for! (Well I'd watch it even if they only were gustes but anyway..XD)
Watch the performance right here: http://www.mtv.se/mtv/?StoryId=68676&playlistId=106639&vid=273290 Joe coming out from that taxi is the coolest thing . ;)
I must admit that Taylor Swift made a pretty good job at hosting and I'm very glad that Miley didn't win Best new Artist, muahhaha (more evil laughter). But when I think about it, Miley or Tokiohotel? (omg, did I just write that in my blog?) I really dislike them both, but I think I have had my rage against TH (FOR NOW!), this morning when I thought they'd won Best Pop video.
So I must say TH, hating Miley is much funnier! XD
I guess MTV is not quite ready for letting the Disney stars in yet..... NEXT YEAR, I TELL YOU, NEXT YEAR! XD

Burnin' Up for best Pop Music Video!

Haven't written for a while and after a very long time I've got Blog-drought!
Anyway what have been up? A busy schoolweek is what's been up, school have just begun to be hectic. My french teachers(yes we have two!) is killing us, it is homework after homework after homework. Geeshh.
And we got lockers now, at PAULI oh yeah having lockers at your school is so out now, having lessons in your school is overrated... I MISS LATIN so much! XD
How come i use XD smileys so much? I should stop, I mean Nick Jonas doesn't understand them. That's why whenever I talk to americans or so I have to use jk or lol. XD You undertsand them right?

This weekend I decided to make a very productive weekend, I made homeworks, recorded not just ONE song but two, played the violin, looked up the universities schools on the net, played the guitar and watched two movies. Wow it really wasa productive weekend.
I've recorded Lovebug, ladies and gentlemen and we've see what's going to happen after my poll's over. ;) It's up to you.

Looking up the schools on the net made me feel very...good. Muhahaha feeling so grown-up and important. I didn't look up all the schools I wrote down but about half of them, it is a veeeery long list I must say. XD Website after websiate gradually I become more depressed, the fees and requirements gave me a reality slap (MAAHHAHAA, class Speu3 we make up most wonderful words XD). Studying abroad is a difficult process, very difficult. It made me think....what do I really want? If I am to study abroad that's it, what I study there is more or less the "profession" I will be doing in the future and more depressing is if I fail studying abroad then I'm doomed for sure. All the money and all the effort, gone for nothing.
There are certain programmes I feel very tempted to study but do I dare to go for it?




Hey! I'm on TV! :D

Btw, don't forget to watch the MTV Video awards! Jonas brothers both being nomineed and performing, what an awesome show! ;) For the stupid timechange, it's Live 2 o'clock in the middle of night here in Sweden. Watch it on mtv.se tomorrow or it will show reprises on thuesday and friday.

GO BURNIN'N UP for Best Pop music video!!!

Jonas Brothers who?



I got a textmessage from a friend this morning saying that Jonas Brothers was in the "local newspaper" (Sydsvenskan) adn almost immediately I dress and get down to the nearest grocery store to buy it. And on my way home I also picked up the free newspapers and who is not in Metro today too? XD The first article (picture one) is from Sydsvenskan and the second (picture two) is from Metro, both reviewing their new CD "A Little bit Longer".

I was however a bit surprised over the somewhat bad criticsism (3 our of 5 and 2 out of 5). What the both have in common is that they think that the boys tries to be rock when they obviously is pop, well I do understand this. When I myself heard the new songs for the first time I also felt this new older, more mature sound with touches of rock, but still they have lots of Pop songs and blablabla and the cristics thinks: what do they really want to mediate? like"stick to what you know!" XD.
As said before I think it's good for the boys to experiment with a sound and new songs. They've sung rosy-puppylove Pop their whole life now and it's awesome that they've finally kicked Walt Disney's butt and come out to play new things. XD It's great to know that they've come to a point in their career that they feel comfortable to experiment with a new sound. It's good for them! (and just FYI WE LOVE IT!)
That was that

The poll run-out time is today and I'm very happy to know that not less than 26 people participated. Let's see the results shall we?
Do you the "Jonas Brothers"?
OMJ, YES! answered 21 voters
Yeah, after you talking 'bout them all the time, answered 2 voters
What brothers? answered 2 voters

Haha I especially thought the 2 voters who took the second option, huhuhu sry guys XD And for those who took the last option, YOU'VE just been living under a rock haven't you?!?! XD
A new poll is up and make sure to vote! Let's break that participation record guys! I have faith in you ! ;)
[don't forget to watch Heroes tonight TV4 21.00!]

Sneaky Swedish people


Dear Swedish readers, have you been picking up Metro today?
I was on my way back to my school from Borgar (another school where I have my French lesson) and I happen to stop by a busstop and sees the metro newspaperstand thing and I take one. I haven't read metro or any other free newspaper since I started to take the bike to school, and it was just a huge coincidence that I took it today. Because why? First I just flipped over soem pages and read just some random things, then in English class (during the break was it?) I read it again, then suddenly I just see THIS and totally freaks and screams after my friend, LOOK!
Man it's awesome! :D When I frist read it, after the headline it says that Joans Brothers released their new CD yesterday, and I was like...so you say August 12th is yesterday ok fine by me XD It never came to me that they meant in Sweden, never! Because these things don't happen so fast, the last JB CD "Jonas brothers" released in Sweden ONE YEAR AFTER the actual release.
So what the hey, suddenly the Swedish people became very sneaky...XD
