The 17-year-old singer-and-actress - who is in a relationship with the Australian star - says it was fantastic to be able to share the movie making experience with someone you care about.

She said: "Working with Liam was a lot of fun because this is something new for both of us. It's cool being able to share that with somebody."

Miley is glad she took the role as rebellious teen Ronnie Miller because it was a chance to get away from the 'Hannah Montana' character that catapulted her to fame.

She added: "This is his breakout moment in the States and this is my breakout moment away from what people know me as."

Miley Cyrus won't be taking her boyfriend to the Academy Awards.

The 'Hannah Montana' actress - who is set to present an award at the forthcoming Oscars - is reportedly worried her appearance at the prestigious ceremony will be overshadowed if she is accompanied by Australian actor Liam Hemsworth.

A source revealed: "Liam's a pretty low-key guy anyway, he doesn't mind not going."

However, Miley won't be walking down the red carpet alone at Los Angeles' Kodak Theatre on March 7.

Her representative said: "She's taking her mom, Tish."

Miley and Liam have never officially confirmed their romance, though the 17-year-old 'Hannah Montana' star has previously admitted her closeness to the 19-year-old actor has helped boost her confidence.

Taylor Swift is "obsessed" with number 13.

The 'Love Story' hitmaker has reportedly been talked out of getting a tattoo of her favourite digit etched onto her arm after her family told her it would be bad for her image.

A source told gossip website Absolute Now: "Taylor has this weird connection with the number 13 which goes back to when she was a kid. It's her lucky number. Every time she has won an award she has sat in seat number 13, and the number keeps cropping up in good times for her.

"She was even going to get a tattoo on her arm but her folks have stepped in and convinced her it could be kind of unlucky for her look."

It was previously claimed that Taylor's friend Miley Cyrus has urged her to get some body art.

The 17-year-old 'Hannah Montana' star reportedly wanted her pop singer pal to get the words "Just Breathe" - which Miley has etched under her left breast - inked onto her body.

Miley Cyrus is to star in a remake of French film 'LOL: Laughing Out Loud'.

The 17-year-old actress has already been cast in the movie and is rumoured to be appearing alongside 47-year-old Demi Moore.

The original film - which starred former Bond girl Sophie Marceau -tells the story of a mother and daughter struggling to maintain their relationship following a marriage breakdown.

It is the latest in a string of movie roles Miley has landed which will move her into mainstream cinema following the success she enjoyed as the star of the 'Hannah Montana' franchise.

Last year, she filmed a cameo appearance in 'Sex and the City 2' and this year she will appear in drama 'The Last Song' alongside her boyfriend Liam Hemsworth.

Miley recently indicated she wanted to step away from being a teen idol.

She said: "My job is to be a role model, and that's what I want to do, but my job isn't to be a parent.

"My job isn't to tell your kids how to act or how not to act, because I'm still figuring that out for myself. So to take that way from me is a bit selfish.

Joe Jonas says he has been "reconnecting" with ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift. The 20-year old singers dated briefly before splitting in 2008. Trans World News reports Joe as saying about Taylor, "We've been kind of reconnecting, which is good."

Swift was recently linked with singer John Mayer through a dinner 'date', though her representative quickly denied any romance between Taylor and Jennifer Aniston's ex boyfriend.

More Jonas love notes...Nick Jonas feels flattered by rumors that he is seeing his ex, Selena Gomez. Gomez stopped by to visit him during his touring leg in Chicago. MTV reports Jonas said: "[It's] not so much a surprise. The thing that's kind of funny to me is the fact that I'm still very young. As far as a relationship, it's kind of young stuff, and people being interested in that is funny to me, but it's all good. It's flattering, and that's how you have to look at it."
Jonas said he included covers by Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift on upcoming solo album Who I Am. Swift, he said, has even started to follow him on Twitter.
"I really haven't heard from them directly. I noticed that Taylor started following me [on Twitter] after I played her song, which is cool. I think they're great songs and I'm just happy to throw them in there and play them in the set. I think a great song is a great song at the end of the day."

Mariah Carey will sing on Simon Cowell's Haiti charity single.

The 'Obsessed' hitmaker has signed up to join a selection of the world's biggest stars and add her vocals to the music mogul's star-studded cover version of the REM ballad 'Everybody Hurts'.

Simon has revealed the 40-year-old singer-and-actress was so keen to help raise relief funds for the Caribbean island following the two devastating earthquakes, she altered her schedule to fit in the recording.

He said: "We're getting there. We have had an incredible amount of support. It's amazing these great singers are clearing their schedules to make this happen.

"I just found out Mariah has changed her schedule to be able to do this too.

"It says such a lot that everyone is working so hard to help Haiti. This is something that really matters to us all and I'm so grateful for the support we are getting."

Simon - who hopes the song will be released next Sunday (31.01.10) - is thrilled about the extra publicity which will be generated now Mariah has joined the bill.

A source added to The Sun newspaper: "Mariah was brilliant, she wanted to help in any way she could. Her name gives the single another great boost."

'Hannah Montana' star Miley Cyrus has also joined the track's all-star cast.

Girls Aloud singer Cheryl Cole and British boy band JLS were the first to record their vocals in London over the weekend.

The song is particularly poignant to JLS member Oritse Williams, who has lost family members in Haiti.

He said: "This tragedy is very close to my heart. We hope to raise as much money as possible."

Actor Joaquin Phoenix has resurfaced in Miley Cyrus video. Phoenix last appeared looking desperate for attention with a beard and some story about looking to be a rap star and break into the music business.

His act failed to impress celebrity watchers as they mocked the actor for what they determined to be his "too strange" behavior. He's been about as visible as Tiger Woods ever since. See the YouTube clip here at The Mercury News, the video that also stars Cyrus and Liv Tyler.

Miley Cyrus is ready for marriage.

The 17-year-old star - who recently denied she is engaged to actor Liam Hemsworth after she was pictured wearing a ring on her engagement finger - has been joking to pals about the possibility of changing her name to match her 18-year-old boyfriend's.

A source said: "Miley's crazy in love with Liam, and keeps joking that Miley Hemsworth sounds so fancy and sophisticated.

"She says she can't wait to turn 18 this year so she could do whatever she wants - even marry Liam - and no one can stop her."

The 'Party in the USA' singer, whose father is 'Achy Breaky Heart' hitmaker Billy Ray Cyrus, has reportedly told her record company that she now wants to take a career break to spend more time with Liam.

Miley Cyrus will dump Hannah Montana. The much maligned teen starlet will bid adieu to her TV character after filming concludes for a fourth season and move forward to more adult-oriented roles. Earlier reports have claimed she has taken a linking to sexy "Gossip Girl" blonde Blake Lively.  Disney Channel boss Adam Bonnett told reporters of the Hannah Montana series: "Right now we're scheduled to wrap after shooting this new batch of episodes... The (new) episodes will continue to roll out at least over a full year."

More Miley...(But Not Hannah) Cyrus, 17, has fallen in love with Phillip Island, off Australia's southern coast. Miley reportedly called her dad Billy Ray Cyrus to tell him she adored her stay on the Victorian island that drew a super-cool rock crowd to Australia over new year.
The teen sensation was at Purple Hen Winery on the island when she was overheard telling her father how much she enjoyed the romantic getaway with Liam Hemsworth, 19.

The pair were reported staying with Hemsworth family members. They frequented the Pyramid Rock Festival, which featured hot local band Empire of the Sun. "She was telling him what a beautiful place Phillip Island was and how much she had fallen in love with it.
And she was very keen to tell him how nice it was to be able to enjoy a holiday without the usual media frenzy that follows her, and was really enjoying the anonymity."  
Winery staff said Cyrus made for the "perfect guest" and had just a sip of wine from Hemsworth's glass. The family threw a lunch and a barbecue at their home to welcome Cyrus on New Year's Eve. Hemsworth's mother Leonie, meanwhile, was reported pulling some savvy driving moves on her way to Melbourne Airport with the pair as she dodged trailing photographers.

Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin have worked New Year's Eve together for the last time thanks to Falcon Heene, the balloon boy. Her crude remarks about the family are said to be enough for the news network to dump her from future shows, an insider has claimed.
