Miley Cyrus is Writing Her Memoirs

Posted on April 22, 2008

Young pop star Miley Cyrus is writing her memoirs according to a report in Fox News. She is 15 years old. Fox says the book will include previously unseen photographs and family stories. The book will be published by Hyperion, a Disney imprint.

Disney said the book will focus particularly on the guidance of Cyrus' mother, Leticia.

The Disney Book Group, in a clear bit of synergy for the Walt Disney Co., has world rights to the book. Disney said Cyrus' book will feature previously unseen photos, family stories and "a look at her inner circle of loved ones."

Miley says in a statement, ""I am so excited to let fans in on how important my relationship with my family is to me. I hope to motivate mothers and daughters to build lifetimes of memories together and inspire kids around the world to live their dreams."

Miley is the star of Hannah Montana, a sitcom that chronicles the dual life of a student who has a semi-secret life as popstar Hannah Montana. Miley sells out concert venues and has legions of young fans. The book will be released in spring of 2009 and will no doubt be a bestseller. But still....writing your memoirs at 15? Isn't that a bit premature?

Update: People says Miley was paid seven figures to write her memoirs.
