Hannah Montana involved in another Scandal
ROCKSTAR sounds very similar to a
previous release by
Los Angeles Independent Band LUSTRA
The band received over 3 million profile views on
MySpace in less than 24 hours
Recently Los Angeles based band Lustra was reviewing the emails on their myspace page (myspace.com/lustra) and they noticed several emails that conveyed the same idea - their song - "Scotty Doesn't Know" - taken from their album LEFT FOR DEAD sounded identical to "Rockstar" by Miley Cyrus - aka Hannah Montana.
The band listened to both tracks and realized the similarities themselves. "Scotty Doesn't Know" was recorded for the movie EUROTRIP, starring Matt Damon, which was released in 2004, and well in advance of Cyrus' "Rockstar", released in 2006. In another strange coincidence their producer out of Boston, was connected to the television hit series "Hannah Montana". The idea was now not so farfetched. The band also noticed something on the Billboard Magazine charts - "Scotty Doesn't Know" was at 75 while Ms. Cyrus was just starting to work her way up the charts - her song "Who Said" was at 92.
When confronted with the idea, the producer refused to return calls. Nick Cloutman, Lustra's guitarist, offered, "Although we are very flattered that Ms. Cyrus took this route, we would have preferred some credit."
The band is considering various options to rectify this situation. The immediate solution, however, is to work with a Los Angeles based producer to minimize leaks, and keep all future recordings in a vault, under extreme security. "If Hannah Montana wants us now - who is next? The Jonas Brothers?" declares Lustra's frontman, Chris Baird.
Nick did offer one request, "If Annie Liebowitz is interested in photographing us nearly nude we are certainly open to it and we look forward to her call."

i think?
you must not watch enough OUTRAGE NEWS, the last scandal = "shocking" "topless" Miley Cyrus pictures taken by Annie Leibowitz for Vanity Fair.
Thanks to having a pre-teen sister I also know that the scandal before that was someone leaking a bunch of Miley's quasi-slutty myspace self-portraits onto the interwebs at large.

Matt Damon does not 'star' in Eurotrip but kudos to HM for highlighting this underrated terrible movie

Scotty Doesn't Know is so generic that of course it sounds like a bunch of other songs.

Matt Damon does not 'star' in Eurotrip
Yeah, I was trying to remember even a cameo.
― Kevin John Bozelka, Saturday, 17 May 2008 13:32 (eighteen years ago)
The only reason I know he has a cameo in that movie is because when whatserbitch jimmy kimmel's girlfriend came on his show to do a singalong joke about "I'm fucking matt damon" the tune was apparently a rip-off of the song under discussion here and somebody ELSE linked a youtube of the eurotrip bit where matt damon pretends to sing this track by lustra or whatever
why do I know all this shit? I'm going to wind up making conversation out of this "news" sometime today or next week and in'sh'allah a bolt of terrible lightning will reduce me to ashes in mid-sentence

CYRUS' FOOD SNACK IN SALMONELLA SCARESnacks from Miley Cyrus' "Hannah Montana" food range have been pulled from shelves due to suspected salmonella contamination.
The 16-year-old's Hannah Montana Chocolate Granola Bars have been withdrawn from stores over a peanut scare.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency issued the recall notice on Friday after officials discovered the snacks contained nut products which were part of the widespread peanut recall that hit the U.S. and Canada earlier this year.

Miley has taken Eminem's place as America's favorite controversy starter, though she apparently isn't getting back to Curtis Hanson about the biopic.

no other pictures in the thread so I right clicked and looked at page source, it shows you all the silly code, searched in there for a .jpg, copied and pasted it in to another tab, saved it and uploaded it elsewhere.

I don't think white girl getting friendly with a black guy is considered a scandal anymore.

Tuomas I love you but you're bringing me down.
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Wednesday, 3 June 2009 11:54 (seventeen years ago)
no, but 16-year-olds getting friendly with someone facing drug charges for marijuana, ecstacy, and cocaine may be a little off-putting.

Ah, I don't know who Hannah Montana is, so I didn't know she's 16. Still, it looks merely like a typical publicity shot done by two celebrities, don't see much scandal there.
― Tuomas, Wednesday, 3 June 2009 12:05 (seventeen years ago)
the hannah montana scandal of the title is something else
