Miley Cyrus
Sep 29, 2013

Pop singer, Miley Cyrus has recently released the second single from her upcoming Bangerz album, "Wrecking Ball". Released on VEVO on September 9th, the song's video is arguably more provocative than its predecessor, "We Can't Stop." The video begins with a close-up of Cyrus standing in front of a completely white backdrop and crying while performing the song. She then sits naked on top of a wrecking ball and licks a sledgehammer. Just 24 hours after its release, the video reached a peak of 19 million views, breaking a VEVO record set by One Direction previously. Bangerz will be out on October 8th.
In 2006, Cyrus rose to fame as a teen idol after being cast in the lead role of the Disney Channel television series Hannah Montana. She is now currently recognized as among the most successful artists to originate from Disney. Cyrus ranked number thirteen on Forbes' 2010 Celebrity 100. For the 2011 Guinness World Records, she was named the "Most Charted Teenager" following her 29th US Billboard Hot 100 chart entry on November 7, 2009 with "Party in the U.S.A." She has eight top-ten hits on the Billboard Hot 100, and had four RIAA certified albums by the age of 18.
