Miley Cyrus is one of the most provocative pop stars around, from her barely-there ensembles to her outspoken advocacy for dozens of different causes. The little girl who we knew as Hannah Montana grew up into a truly fascinating young wild-child.
In the swirl of media attention, it can sometimes be easy to forget that Miley’s chaotic exterior hides a genuine and talented performer. For example, did you know that she’s an animal-lover who has adopted six rescue dogs?
That’s just one of many little-known facts when it comes to Billy Ray’s famous daughter. You might also be surprised to learn that the pop princess is goddaughter to another bastion of musical royalty—Dolly Parton.
This pair of blonde babes, separated by a generation or two of hit songs, are, nonetheless, remarkably similar. Often ridiculed in the press for their looks, both women are often underestimated, especially when it comes to their vocal chops.
Fortunately, Dolly has been on the pop-culture radar long enough now that people mostly respect her talents, as demonstrated by this impressive performance of "Stairway To Heaven," Miley, on the other hand, still doesn’t get much credit for her incredible voice.
If you’re interested in setting the matter to rest, check out this remarkable video of Miley performing her godmother’s hit song "Jolene." And please, don't forget to SHARE her talents with any doubters on Facebook!
