Cyrus (Hannah Montana) Confirms She Uses Body Double
Miley Cyrus, or Hanah Montana as she is probably better known, has confirmed that during her live stage shows there are times when she uses a body double. Now people get all bent out of shape about this, but in reality it is quite meaningless, and actually helps the show.
The video below from YouTube shows the 15-year-old entertainer as “Hannah” dancing on-stage with a group of dancers and the Jonas Brothers, also on the tour. During the song, someone ushers her offstage via a trap door. Immediately, another girl dressed like the character “Hannah” in the same pink trench coat with blonde hair covering her face dances around, runs up the stage set, and then quickly leaves.
There is a very simple explanation for all of this:
“To help speed the transition from Hannah to Miley, there is a production element during the performance of ‘We Got the Party’ incorporating a body double for Miley,” according to statement Friday from the public relations firm PMK.
“After Hannah has completed the featured verse on the duet with the Jonas Brothers, a body double appears approximately one to two minutes prior to the end of the song in order to allow Miley to remove the Hannah wig and costume and transform into Miley for her solo set. Other than during this very brief transitional moment in the show, Miley performs live during the entirety of both the Hannah and Miley segments of the concert.”
It’s all about showmanship really, and I wouldn’t think too many will have a problem with it after that explanation. So you can still keep those wedding rings for your proposals when she comes to town. There is no scandal and she should be around for at least a few more years raking in the dough as a pop sensation.
