The Miley saga continues. Yesterday, we wrote about the tremendous interest in the "Hannah Montana" star's romantic life. Today, a sarcastic video from the Disney Darling has resurfaced on the Web. In the clip, Miley makes fun of an actress who's reportedly dating her ex. And the buzz is popping. Allow us to recap:
Miley Cyrus, pretty much the biggest teen star out there, once dated Nick Jonas, one-third of the pop phenom The Jonas Brothers. At some point, Miley and Nick broke up. Now, news stories have linked the boy wonder with Selena Gomez, a Disney up-and-comer who has been dubbed "the next Miley Cyrus." For Miley fans, it's almost too much to bear.
Back in March, Selena and her pal Demi Lovato made a goofy video and posted it on YouTube. Miley and her buddy Mandy Jiroux retorted with their own short making fun of Selena's clip. Months later, the video has resurfaced to do what videos do best: wreck PR havoc.
"Miley Cyrus Mocks the Competition," declares E! Online. "Miley Cyrus Mocks Selena Gomez on YouTube," Us Magazine proclaims, and follows with the question sure to get Disney in a dither: "Miley Cyrus—a mean girl?" In Search, the mockathon drove queries upwards for "miley and mindy show," "demi lovato and selena gomez," and "miley cyrus video."
Miley has a new album out and her appearance on "The Today Show" Friday morning broke concert records for the NBC series. For fans, though, the star's dating woes are priority number one. Yesterday's fastest moving Miley search was "miley cyrus and nick jonas." Queries like "miley and nick" (no last names necessary), "miley cyrus boyfriend nick jonas," and "miley cyrus boyfriend" continue to post big gains.
Meanwhile, thanks to the video clip or not, demand for "nick jonas and selena gomez dating" and "nick jonas and selena gomez" are running strong.
How will this twisted tale of teen angst play out? Only time—and maybe a few more deliciously acerbic video clips—will tell.
