Miley Cyrus Tickets – Golden Globe Excitement

What could be a better birthday present to a 16-year-old than a brand new Porsche? Not many things could top that list for a teenager, but Miley Cyrus has done a fabulous job following up the gifts of her sweet sixteenth by gaining a nomination for a Golden Globe Award, announced in last week’s awards show fervor. Cyrus’ new Porsche Cayenne took the backseat to the artist’s newest gift of a possible Golden Globe, as the Hannah Montana star recently secured her spot to the second awards show since November, when she performed at the American Music Awards.

Cyrus and singer-songwriter Jeffrey Steele picked up the Golden Globe nod for “I Thought I Lost You,” a song the two co-wrote for the Disney film Bolt. The single is up for Best Original Song in a Motion Picture, and it will compete against Peter Gabriel and Thomas Newman with “Down to Earth” from Wall-E; Jamie Cullum, Clint Eastwood, Kyle Eastwood and Michael Stevens for “Gran Torino” from Gran Torino; Beyonce Knowles, Amanda Ghost, Scott McFarmon, Ian Dench, James Dring and Jody Street for “Once in a Lifetime” from Cadillac Records and Bruce Springsteen for “The Wrestler” in The Wrestler. This year’s Golden Globe Awards, the 66th annual presentation, will commence on January 11.

While 2008 has been one monumental year in the spotlight for Miley Cyrus, the teen pop sensation has been at the forefront of media attention ever since she was born, being the first daughter of country music legend and “Achy, Breaky Heart” vocalist Billy Ray Cyrus. Miley’s entertainer gene was evident from childhood, and she got the nickname Miley (her real name is Destiny Hope) as a shortened version of “Smiley,” a name she gained due to her cheerful disposition as a baby. Miley Cyrus made her debut into the entertainment world in 2003 when she made a cameo in the television series Doc, soon thereafter landing a small role in the Tim Burton film Big Fish. The child prodigy made her big break in 2005, however, when she gained the title role in the Disney series Hannah Montana. The TV show let Cyrus demonstrate both her acting and singing skills, as she played a character leading a double life as normal teenager Miley Stewart by day and superstar Hannah Montana by night. The first Hannah Montana soundtrack came out in 2006 following the release of the Hannah Montana film, and Cyrus absolutely exploded as a teen icon thereafter.

Since 2006, Cyrus has gone on to conquer all means of the entertainment industry, embarking upon several national tours and releasing many smash singles and albums both as Hannah Montana and as Miley Cyrus. Cyrus’ debut solo release as herself dropped in the summer of 2008 under the title Breakout, and that’s just what this sugar-coated pop tart has done ever since. Cyrus’ live performances are appropriate for all ages, so if you haven’t seen the Hannah Montana star rock the stage live, get Miley Cyrus tickets from http://www.stubhub.com/miley-cyrus-tickets and get the party started!
