Poppa doesn’t preach on Miley’s pole dance

Poppa doesn't preach on Miley's pole danceBilly Ray Cyrus is right behind 16-year-old daughter Miley when it comes to a controversial pole dancing performance she gave at the Teen Choice Awards.

Miley remains focused on entertaining, her proud country music-singing dad said.

“You know what? I just think that Miley loves entertaining people. She loves singing [and] songwriting,” he said.

Billy Ray encouraged her to block out negative comments: “I always tell her to love what you’re doing and stay focused for the love of the art and not worry so much about opinion.”

  7. I have always been a fan of Billy Ray, but then my granddaughters got me listening to the Hannah Montana show and all I can say is, ” That is one talented family”. Good Luck and don’t let your head go in the clouds too much. Thanks for sharing your talent with us. Much happiness!!!

  13. Okay, basically, all the people asking for backstage passes or saying hi are the biggest group of weirdos yet. I read the headline, was upset how sex is being sold to youngsters via this brat Miley, and the Jonas brothers, and after reading all the lame comments, I don’t want to share this planet with you all. I’m going home and opening some veins, everyone is insane, or maybe I am because I keep thinking people have brains, and use logic and reason, but they really don’t. I’m guessing all the respondents are from the south…

  18. Yes you have the right to entertain as you see fit but you should also keep in mind that you are a role model for alot of young girls. you may think pole dancing is something harmless but it can make a big impact on what is accepitble with young girls. its hard enoufgh for a mother of a little girl and son trying to teach them how to get attetion in the right way and also how to view women in a reslectful way. so just keep that in mind imagine if you were a role model for your doughter.
