Miley gets Facebook fans talking about hearing loss prevention to Kick Off Starkey Hearing Foundation’s Listen Carefully ‘Vow to Act’ Initiative
As part of its Listen Carefully campaign, which sends the message ‘don’t listen loudly, listen carefully,’ Starkey Hearing Foundation is once again teaming with Miley to encourage teens and young adults to take a “vow to act” to protect their hearing, and spread the word to others to do the same. In fact, according to a Starkey Hearing Foundation poll of more than 200 Miley Cyrus Facebook fans, 87 percent vowed to make the commitment to protect their own hearing, with the same percentage saying they would pass the message along to their friends and family.
A committed supporter of Starkey Hearing Foundation, which strives to change the social consciousness of hearing and hearing health care, Miley recently hosted a series of questions from the Foundation on her Facebook page as a first step in getting young people to take the Listen Carefully ‘Vow to Act.’
In addition to those who said they would take action to protect their own hearing by lowering the volume on their MP3 players and iPods, 56 percent of respondents reported having experienced some difficulty hearing their teacher during class. This is consistent with reports of rising trends in hearing loss among young people – an issue that Starkey Hearing Foundation’s Listen Carefully campaign is trying to address.
Some tips from Starkey Hearing Foundation that can easily be shared on Facebook and Twitter include:
Lowering the volume on your MP3 player, iPod or cell phone
Using background noise-canceling headphones when listening to music
Getting your hearing checked on a regular basis
Wearing the proper ear protection gear if you’ll be in an environment where loud sounds are customary
Encouraging friends and family to also take the vow to act to protect their hearing
To keep the momentum going, Twitter users can use #ListenCarefully to hear what people are saying about hearing loss prevention, join the conversation, and learn what actions others are taking to protect their hearing.
“I’m thrilled to support Starkey Hearing Foundation and its Listen Carefully Vow to Act initiative and I want all of my fans to help get the conversation started about hearing loss and encourage others to take care of their hearing,” said Miley”. Our ability to hear is fragile and we have to take care of it daily so that we can enjoy and appreciate music and the sounds that surround us each and every day.”

Miley in Haiti with Starkey Hearing Foundation
posted on Oct 05, 2011
Along with President of Haiti Michel Martelly, Miley Cyrus Delivered the Gift of Hearing to 400 Children and Adults During Second Visit to Haiti
MINNEAPOLIS (October -, 2011) – Miley Cyrus joined the Starkey Hearing Foundation in Haiti for a return visit to bring the gift of hearing to children and adults in need in Port au Prince and surrounding areas. With the help of Haitian President Michel Martelly, Cyrus assisted in the distribution and fitting of state-of-the-art hearing aids to more than 400 Haitians who have become or remained hearing impaired since the island’s devastating 2010 earthquake.
The visit was made possible by Cyrus, after making agenerous donation during the Foundation’s So The World May Hear Awards Gala held on Sunday, July 24, 2011. During the event’s silent auction, Miley won a bid on a second hearing mission to Haiti, following her first mission there in March 2011. In addition to Miley’s generous contribution to making the mission possible, the Starkey Hearing Foundation is also working with Randy Mortensen from World Wide Village, a non-profit organization, as well as Digicel, which is helping to facilitate transportation and security needs during the mission.
Miley’s March visit to Haiti was her first introduction to the Starkey Hearing Foundation. After seeing theorganization’s work first-hand in helping children hear – many for the very first time, she quickly agreed to become involved in the Foundation’s Listen Carefully campaign.
Launched in April, the message of the Listen Carefully campaign, stresses a clear message – “your hearing is fragile, so don’t listen loudly, listen carefully,” Cyrus appeared in a series of public service ads on behalf of the campaign, and also utilized her Get Your Good On Facebook page to reach fans with the message.
“After I went on my first mission to Haiti with the Starkey Hearing Foundation, I felt so drawn to helping others hear for the first time and immediately wanted to look for another chance to go back and help again,” said Cyrus. “This second mission to Haiti was just as impactful to me as the first one. I grew up around music and couldn’t imagine what it would be like for my siblings and me, if we couldn’t hear the magic of music. It’s had such an influence on my life, that I just want everyone to enjoy sound as it was intended.”. Checkout more pictures in Miley’s blog above…

Miley Cyrus, Kristen Stewart Top List of New Heroines!
posted on Oct 04, 2011
Miley Cyrus and Kristen Stewart are among seven young women who are taking over Hollywood with a vengeance!
The two starlets joined four other celebs as the top seven kick-butt heroines in Hollywood.
Miley was named for her role as FBI agent Molly Morris in So Undercover, Kristen Stewart was named for her role as Bella in Twilight and as Snow White in the remake she is filming now. The others include Anne Hathaway as Catwoman, Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen, Rooney Mara as Lisbeth Salander in The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, and Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff!
All of these young women portray a sexy and fierce heroine, which is giving older heroines like Angelina Jolie and Halle Berry a run for their money!

"He's a great guy," Billy Ray said "He's solid. He's got great character."
Miley's dad also thinks his daughter's boyfriend is a great actor! Liam will play Gale Hawthorne in The Hunger Games. "Have you read that script?" he asked. "The script is killer, and Liam is going to knock it out of the park. He's a tremendous talent.And I have to tell you, on or off the record, he's just a good guy," he added. "He's just a really good guy. I really like him a lot."
Miley and her guy were most recently spotted this weekend shopping in Sydney. Liam took a break from filming The Hunger Games in the U.S. to visit her while she's on tour Down Under! Too Sweet!

A few days ago it came out in the U.K. that Miley and Katy don't get along at all!
Well, nothing could be further from the truth it seems. Katy Perry said on Twitter that she has never said anything against Miley and that all of this was brought on my the press. Katy finished up by saying that 'we can all coexist' meaning that there can and should be peace between the press and female singers.

Miley's interview with OK! thx to Luiza A! Does Billy Ray give you advice on men? No, honestly, my dad just hopes that for once I do have something going on in my life so my dad's happy for me. I have someone normal, too. Not pyschos so that's good [laughs].'
What qualities do you find special in Liam Hemsworth? He's a 6'4'' Australian surfer. I could not surf if someone gave me $10 million to do it. I'm 5'4'' and I'm from Tennessee, so we're, like, literally couldn't be more opposite but there are just things in our life that help us related to that's really cool.
On possibly marrying BF Liam: My dad says there's no quicker way to ruin a friendship than to get married so that's what I always have in my mind. But my grandma's the opposite. My grandma met her husband on Monday, got married on Friday and they have been married for the last 45 years or so. I got grandma on one ear and dad on the other.'

The new CD will come out on the 22nd of June, 2010, so write that date down Miley fans!
You will want to buy this CD because it may be the last one that she will do for some time. She said a few months ago that she will stop making CDs after this album and focus on her new career as an actress.
Miley wants critics to take her more seriously. She is sick of being treated like a inmature teen. She can't wait to turn 18, when she will legally become an adult.
