Miley Cyrus Rocks Chicago, Voted Worst Influence

miley cyrus concert 271009Back on the road for her Wonder World Tour, Miley Cyrus took the stage at the United Center in Chicago on Tuesday night (October 27). The “Hannah Montana” singer/actress once again delivered an energetic performance before heading off to her gig in St Louis scheduled for later tonight.  Meanwhile, Miss Cyrus recently found herself at the top of a poll – unfortunately it was for being the worst celebrity influence of 2009. The 16-year-old garnered 42 percent of votes in the AOL poll, followed up by Britney Spears and Kanye West.Stephanie Cohen of JSYK said of the results, “I think Miley is in an interesting space where she is trying to graduate from being ‘Hannah Montana’ and a Disney channel celebrity and coming into her own and having a career beyond Disney. I think her fans still want her to be the sweet Hannah Montana and she is trying to age up…Parents are definitely resisting it.”
