Miley Cyrus, the 15 year old star of the Disney TV show “Hannah Montana”, earned an estimated $25 million during June 2007 to June to 2008 according to Wikipedia.
Cyrus was ranked #35 on the “2008 Forbes Celebrity 100″. Quite impressive for a 15 year old girl!
One of the controversial Vanity Fair photos, for which Miley Cyrus has already apologized, is shown above on the left.
A few days ago I found a very posh area in Los Angeles while surfing on Live Maps. First I had no idea which area in L.A. it could be, but according to this article on Forbes it’s “Beverly Park”, an exclusive, gated community for the very very upperclass. It’s the highest accumulation of mega swimming pools and tennis courts I’ve ever seen.
