So, the royal baby finally has a name! On Tuesday, July 24, Kensington Palace released a press statement naming the new prince, George Alexander Louis. It only took Will and Kate two days to name their baby boy - less time than it has taken previous royals! It took Will's grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, exactly one month to name Will's father, Prince Charles. It took Prince Charles and Princess Diana one week to name Prince William.
The little prince has quite a bit of history behind his first name, George. Six of England's most recent kings have been named, George. In fact, George has been the most popular name for English kings in the past 300 years. Queen Elizabeth II's father, King George VI, was the last to reign with that given name.
What do you guys think about the new prince's name? Love it or hate it?

Miley Cyrus
| Miley Cyrus as Hannah Montana |
Having fallen in love with Hannah Montana back then, I have always kept up with Miley Cyrus, the actress who portrayed Hannah on Disney. The Miley of my childhood and the Miley of today are two completely different people.

| Miley During Her Hannah Montana Days |
Looking back on Hannah Montana, Miley was an okay actress. She's still an okay actress, but there's nothing spectacular there which is probably why she still hasn't gained as much fame as say Britney Spears or fellow Disney channel stars, Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez.
Miley is also an okay singer. Nothing completely amazing and a lot of her songs have the same beat/feel to them.
Despite all of this, I have always remained a Miley fan...a Smiler. But Miley's latest behavior has gotten me to like her less. She's been doing songs with will.i.am and Snoop Lion. She's constantly tweeting provocative pictures and talking about how dope she is or how big her butt is. (Is it just me or does she have a typical, FLAT white girl butt?)
Okay. I am a huge rap fan. People like Nicki Minaj, Drake, and Chanel West Coast are my idols. So I'm not upset with Miley for trying to be urban, but I am upset with the way she's doing it. It's like she's acting this way for attention and it is coming off as ridiculous and absurdly fake. It's okay to be into that music and try to imitate it, but Miley is trying to be the stereotypical black girl in this case and it is NOT right. I mean, Chanel West Coast is a white female rapper but does she act like Miley is? No. She is probably one of the most real people I know. Even Nicki Minaj is more real than Miley at this point.

Then there's the whole haircut thing. Miley used to have long, brown hair and I thought she was gorgeous. Then she had it cut shoulder-length and dyed blonde. She still looked pretty. But then she chopped her hair off - even using a razor on her head - and went platinum. I never thought the length of a person's hair would affect their looks so much. Miley though, doesn't look pretty at all with her new haircut.

Miley's latest music video for her single "We Can't Stop" was so over the top that it actually made me laugh. The music video was the worst thing I have ever seen and completely pointless. All it showed was Miley shaking her butt (twerking), making out with a doll, and dancing around in barely there clothes. It was a disgrace to every artist out there. Seriously?
Any thoughts on Miley's new "adult" look?
