Disney Does It Again With Hannah Montana Music
Monday, October 5th, 2009Disney is always promoting some new up and coming super star teen idol. The craze began in the early eighties with the Mickey Mouse club and gave rise to super stars like Justin Timberlake (and pretty much all of NSYNC) and Brittany Spears. Now Disney is at again, only this time they’ve struck an even deeper gold mine, with Miley Cyrus.
Miley is the daughter of country singer Billy Ray Cyrus and got her television debut when the Disney Channel contracted her to be the star of their new show Hannah Montana. In the television show Miley is playing a teen pop star that hides her identity from all of her high school friends so that she can live a “normal” life. The show basically exploded onto the television scene. It has since become one of the most popular children’s shows (children to early teens that is) on the air and has managed to gross a ridiculous sum of money for both Disney and Miley.
The show was such a hit that Disney saw it fit to turn Hannah Montana into countless merchandising opportunities. That’s kind of Disney’s thing really, get a big hit and then churn out the Hannah Montana toys, Hannah Montana games, Hannah Montana videos, and Hannah Montana music. The funny thing is that the Hannah Montana music soundtrack was so popular that it turned Miley Cyrus into a teen pop star. She’s now touring the country and singing at awards shows all thanks to her fame through Hannah Montana.
Along with a Hannah Montana movie there is now a ton of other paraphernalia to go along with the Hannah Montana music. Little girls can jam out with Miley and friends in the Hannah Montana music jam or they can simply throw on a Hannah Montana wig to watch in awe during a Hannah Montana music video. Miley has grown so big and so fast that the whole world is watching and waiting to see what her next move will be.
Hopefully Miley manages to escape the fate of her earlier Disney made stars and not go insane like Brittany Spears or develop a serious drug habit like Lindsay Lohan. We’ll just have to wait and see because at this point it looks like the Hannah Montana franchise will keep pumping out decent children’s media for a long time.
