WHAAAT?? YOU HAVE TO KNOW THAT NICK JONAS ISNT THE ONLY GUY IN THIS WORLD WHO HAS DIABETES.
JUST LOVE HER
to DavidHenrieLUVER
She presented $60,000 to a hospital to get nick’s attention?
Get over the Nick thing…cuz obviously she has.
btw I like her hair a lot:)
a very good organization to donate to, the generosity makes me smile
and for the one who said she was just trying to gain nick’s attention, well…in all honesty, something like this may have caught his eye.
but don’t go saying she did it just to catch the eye of an ex.
because i’m more than sure that miley cyrus has more of a heart than that.
merry christmas and happy holidays to jj and all its readers
Attention whoooreee. I don’t think she did it to get Nick’s attention, but media attention all the less.
She looks horrible.
but i have to say that DavidHenrieLUVER is right
it is to get nicks attention, i am not being mean but there is soo many other clinics she could of gave money to like her own thingy hypoglycemic.
i like miley but i am just saying.
agreed with tabitha. I mean, she could’ve donated to Children’s Hospitals..but instead she donated to a Diabetes Clinic, maybe to get Nick’s attention or that she really cares. But what she did was really great of her.
if miley’s over her relationship with nick, why aren’t you people??
you’re the ones who obbsess over her private life, so if she’s done with nick, don’t you guys typically follow that as well?
i think this is very sweet of her, and definitely in the xmas spirit!
That’s really nice of her. Who cares if she did it to impress Nick?
He’s missing out on a great girl anyways..
she has that hypoglycemia disease which will turn into diabetes later in life. so she’s dealing with that too. why does EVERYTHING the girl does have to relate to nick somehow? they’re over each other. each has moved on. and the JB fans need to also. leave the girl alone. she wasn’t even SCHEDULED to be there. her dad was. but she wanted to come along too.
well i read elsewhere that it was just billy ray that was supposed to be visiting the hospital and the check is under his name. miley just tagged along, probably the reason why its billy ray pics shes signing for them.
and cmon ppl, its christmas time and miley was doing something charitable but the haters have to make it seem as if she had ulterior motives. you guys act as if she never gets attention so shes trying to get it now by doing charity work. putting someone down for doing charity work, doesnt that seem kinda weird? =/
hmm obviously its nice to see celebs doing charity work, but really do they need to make it a publicity thing…i mean can’t they just donate privately for themselves w/o trying to prove to the world how generous they are…ppl should just give for the sake of giving s’all i’m saying…
honestly, it prolly shows more that the celebs actually care if they go in person unless they really make it some publicity stunt inviting a lot of media. cuz even if they donate money w/o going it would still prolly come out.
shes got a form of it herself! why on earth would she still be wasting time trying to get back into that idiots good books when theyre both now taken by other people! shes moved on, thankfully.
UGH you people are so stupid.
she didn’t do this just to get nick freaking jonas’ attention.
if that was the case she wouldn’t have waited
this long. STUPID RETARDS!
you people run all over me. GAHHHH get the eff over it.
she did out of the greatness of her heart.
i love her absolutely so much. i can’t wait for them
to find me, and all these other diabetics, a freaking
cure. GO MILEY!
merry christmas to all<33
OmGEH dudez lyke evryting MiLAY doez revolvez around NiCk J don’tcha kno!11!1!1 i mean c’mon she couldn’t pozsibly donate monay just bcuz shez a nice, giving, benevolent person!11!11! it’s ttly bcuz she want to get NiCk Atention!11!!! it’s teh only possible reason why!1!111ONEONEONE!1111
[/sarcasm]
i knowv you jonas brother fans are wack… and fyi…. she wasn’t the one who presented the money… it was actually Billy Ray…. people need to get their facts right. Miley wasn’t even suppose to be there…. Billy Ray brought his daughter with him. Miley wasn’t even suppose to work that event, can’t you see they don’t have her picture for her to sign. It was only Billy Ray and Miley just signed his pictures to give out. And Miley didn’t have full makeup on because she wasn’t the star of the event. It was Billy Ray.
JUSTJARED… GET YOU FACTS RIGHT!!!!!
To tabitha- IDIOT! Hypoglycemia is a form of diabetes. Dolt.
To davidhenrieluver- GET A LIFE! If you love david henrie then go find his post somewhere rather then obsessing over Nick and Miley.
to faiza- I agree but being a celebrity you can’t do much privately can you? So I think your statement has been cancelled out
Miley has more of a heart then to try to get Nicks attention. Its nice of her. Shes very altruistic. Something you haters will never be.
She is nice for doing that!
I’m so sorry im on my cousins comp. and i didn’t notice it still said her name! So ya #20 is actually zanessa rox ur sox! sorry!
i agree with all the miley fan come on people give her a break leave her aolne she is done with nick soo u should be done with it to
wow.. go miley! diabetes? does nick know this..LOL i hope he does.. nick should be very proud of her.. nick is really unfortunate for losing miley and gaining a not-so-popular actress named selena.. [but love isn't measured in popularity, age, richness and power].. go niley!
people who think she did it to get nick’s atention are just pathetic. GET OVER IT. she is actually a nice person who spends a day of her holidays making sick kids happy, why dont you try doing the same?
LMAO at people who think she is doing this “for Nick”
Idiots.
I mean, now Mileu just can’t donate to a diabetes clinic just because Nick has it??
You tell her to get over Nick, but I have to tell YOU to get over that. She doesn’t talk about Nick since a while ago, you ND THE PRESS ARE THE ONES WHO START ALL THIS STUPID RUMORS!!!
YOU guys who accused this as publicity need a slap in the face….
is it wrong to give back to community that needs the money ?
the cameras might have just been there…
You guys !!
This is Christmas day….and you still full with hatred and such.
Peace !!
That was so sweet of Miley and Billy Ray to take the time out of their Christmas “Break” to do such a nice thing! My Dad had diabetes so I know how hard of a disease it is to have. Miley was so sweet talking to all the the Kids and their Parents as if they were friends..You can tell she’s a very sweet girl!
And I really doubt Miley did this to get Nick’s attention. Miley has a boyfriend now, so it seems that she has moved on. Why do you people always have to assume because Miley is doing something that it is somehow related to Nick? So Miley isn’t able to give a donation to a charity focusing on Diabetes because her Ex-Boyfriend has Diabetes? That just seems dumb to me.
people who say that miley did it for nick, are simply
pathetic. NICK IS NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH
DIABETES YA KNOW! you jb obsessers make it seem
like nick is the ONLY one with it… which is not true!
get the hell over it. miley’s doing something nice for
sick people, && you guys STILL accuse her.. idiots.
i bet you guys wouldnt have the nerve to do what
miley’s doing right now.
Attention or no attention she’s helping kids with diabetes.
I don’t see any of you dipshits going out and donating $60 grand
to a diabetes clinic.
I love her <3
I LOVE HER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
if that had anything to do with nick it was probaly that when she was with him she saw how terrible it was to have to live with and that made her want to help
it was nice of her to donate the money
stop defacing that because you dont like her and want her whole life to be about nick
i <3 jb as much as the next person infact i am a little obsessed but not everything in miley life hes to be about nick and people who think thak are pathetic
This isn’t publicity, I am obivisouly a JB fan, but she is really just a nice person, she has donated over 1 million to charity. I think that other JB fans are just retarded. Like WTF she isnt doing this for Nick’s attention. GET OVER IT.
guys are so over reacting, cant some one have their own opinion with out someone telling them off
miley might be over nick or she might no be, no one knows so sure.
anyway what she did was great.
Miley IS NOT doing this for publicity, JB fans get the HELL over itl.
It’s christmas, take you hatred some where else. Please enoy the celebrations. Davidluver, Miley is a very good and sweet person, for god’s sake she donated over 1 million dollars to charity in 08. This isn’t about Nick Jonas. Or Joe, Kevin and others, it’s about how JB fans favour Selena who has done nothing to deserve the fame shes getting. One tv show, season 1, papz. When Miley worked and paved her way in Hollywood for over 4 years, then she for mega attention. And i highly doubt that Miley is doing this for Nick. Its over she hated him, Nick and Miley made Selena a somebody, fighting with Miley and dating Nick got Selena major attention that she doesnt deserve right now, maybe in the future when she settles down and works harder towards fame and fortune, Selena probably made Forbes, Hollywood is unfair, life sucks, its all about looks and connections.
I love Selena as a person, she is so sweet but truth is the only reason she is on magazine covers is because of the publicity she got from the media in 2008, dating Miley’s ex Nick and fighting with the mega famous Miley. I speak the truth, before the fight happened, when i searched for ”Selena Gomez” on google news, i found absoutely no headlines with ”Selena Gomez”. It was all about her new wizards episodes. Then JB and MIley came and made Selena the superstar she is today. Kind of silly. These days in Hollywood record deals are being handed to teens who have fame, and talent is not being taken serious at all. I dont celebrate X-mas so i will continue surfing the net.
60,000! I think she could of donated more. She has millions and millions and millions of fricken dollars. 60,000 seems like nothing. Hope she donates to more charities. She probably made more than 60,000 with the amount of money she was charging for her 16th bday party and her concerts.
i hate selena and the jonas
One of my best friends has diabetes …
That so sweet of her
Miley is amazing, she is so sweet. Miley haters/jb lovers get a life, she is just a sweet person.
WTH?NICK JONAS HAVE A DIABETES ???
Whoa,thats pretty sweet! I know some people will still have some bad things to say about her. But,if you don’t think that was nice of her theres really no getting to you,you’re just a cold person! Anyway before I start ranting! Shes a very very talented sweet girl. And very pretty. Go Miley!!! <3
you ppl are so stupid READ the post
“presented a $60,000 check to the Vanderbilt Eskind Diabetes Clinic on behalf of the Fraternal Order of Eagles” ON BEHALF OF it is not her money she is even donating, shes just presenting the check that the fraternity is giving to the clinic. SHE did NOT donate 60 K hahaha shes not as generous as JB
hmm obviously its nice to see celebs doing charity work, but really do they need to make it a publicity thing…i mean can’t they just donate privately for themselves w/o trying to prove to the world how generous they are…ppl should just give for the sake of giving s’all i’m saying…
————–
agree! 100%
Opre:
yes it stand’s that in text, but that’s a organization the Cyrus family support’s with money. and stop bringing the fraking Jonas brother into everything. this is Miley and her dad, doing somthing really nice, and the only thing you haters can do is bashing.
Miley rocks
do you think you could post the pictures of amanda bynes on vacation with her new boyfriend? i can’t find them anywhere!
HAY TAN LINDA… CUALQUIER LOCO SE LO CREE..
QUE RIDICULA…. POR DIOS..
NI PORQUE SE VISTA DE SANTA ME VA A CAER BIEN
xoxo
ok, that is really rude to say Miley is doing this for publicity. She might have alot of money, but 60,000 dollars is ALOT! I love the Jonas Brothers, but I did think it was puny when they just donated 10,000 dollars once to a charity. This is very sweet of Miley. and most celebs do make is a publicity thing. so please. don’t judge her cause I’m sure your favorite celeb has done the same.
i have to say maybe she is doing it to get nick’s attention, i mean it is kinda true, maybe!
but then again she does have something like it so maybe she is doing out of the kindness of her heart! im not so sure though it is a little weird that she was donating to a diabetic people. its weird i dont know what to think, but everyone just needs to lay off her! she is a teenage girl! leave her alone! so she has made mistakes, have you? yeah
I think that maybe Miley first became aware of the seriousness of diabetes when she and Nick were dating. It’s nice that she is still contributing to the cause. I think that she and Nick are still friends even though they are not dating. I’m curious about the amount though. $60,000? With her money you would think they would round it off to $100,000. Maybe she gives to other causes and just divides it equally.
omg she is always donating! and for all the haters i dont see you giving up that much money!
#14 you’re sooooooooooooooooooo right totally agree with you anywayz Miley is sooooooooooooooo SWEET i loooooooooooooooooooooove her she ROCKZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lv Nicky B
hey zac and vanessa i really really love you cause im your fan hope that you vanessa will come here in the philippines
that was nice of
come on to get nick’s attention he is not the only guy with diabetes!
i love miley, and 24# why did u say zanessa rocks in here? ur weird…
she’s such a giver
i love her. go miley.
who cares about your stupid zanessa. get over them THIS IS ABOUT MILEY. Not that stupid asian girl and her gay boyfriend.
Oh i wonder why it was a DIABETES clinic.
She’s so desperate, it’s hilarious.
If I ever walked past her or Vanessa Hudgens in the street,
I would probably slap them to the ground.
can’t stand either of them.
It’s all about the christmas cheer ok? And it is natural for any celebrity to donate to charity, and how was this just a ploy to get Nick’s attention, there are so many other ways to get Nick’s attention, but this was something doing out of Christmas Cheer. This is for DavidHenrieLuver and meepo.
And I thought what Miley did was beautiful because of the christmas spirit cheer, and I thought she looked great because that proves that she doesn’t care about her looks, but the spirit in giving.
Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas everyone.
HAHA #60 you’re funny you’re sooooooooooooooooooo right im glad when people like you speak the truth you ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lv Nicky B
LOL!
haha!!
i cant believe i jst make a stupid comment, n like you guys, DONT have a life, just like to see wut other people thinks to tell them that they r incorrect, like if u idiots were CORRECT,
Besides i dont like David Henrie…
I just copied the name, to the Real DavidHenrieLuver.. lol
jrks! x)
Even though I don’t particularly like Miley, I do feel like people need to be reminded of this. Everyone’s always complaining about how celebrities like her don’t do enough for the community, don’t give back or volunteer, or whatever. But when they DO actually help out, everyone questions their motives. And while the whole diabetes thing may seem suspicous to some, and one big photo-op to others, why does that have to be the FIRST thing people assume? It is possible that she’s doing exactly what people say she doesn’t do enough of, helping out.
even if its for the wrong reason, at least she donated.
this is a respons to this :
quote: ” Meepo @ 12/24/2008 at 10:25 pm Attention whoooreee. I don’t think she did it to get Nick’s attention, but media attention all the less.
She looks horrible.”
i know she didn’t do this to get nick’s attention bcuz i knw she’s moved on.
BTW: I BET SHE LOOKS BETTER THAN YOU ANY DAY! (EVEN IN THHAT PHOTO) {DATS RITE I WENT THERE}
Why do all you people on here think Miley is doing this cuz of Nick!?!. Ya’ll are calling out Miley for being a good person and obviously shes not doing it cuz of Nick.Niley is sooooooooo in the past (wish it wasent!!) and shes completely over him and shes soooooooooooo NOT desperate for any reason at all shes just being a kind helpful girl that wants to help kids with diabetes and just becuz her ex-boyfriend had diabetes dosent mean shes trying to get back or make him jealous of anything.Miley is just being a good girl and if ya’ll want to talk s*** about her GET OFF THIS POST ya’ll are pretty low for sayin this bull s*** when you dont even know Miley or Nick its pretty stupid and its getting old so ya’ll dont worry about it theres NO MORE Niley (even though i wish there was:() so KNOCK IT OFF ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
P.S.
I loooooooooooooooooooooooove Miley sooooooooooooooooo much and I looooooooooooooooooove the Jonas Brothers but I loooooooooooooooooooove Nick the most and i’m still hoping for Niley to come back so Miley & Nick PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE COME BACK and Nick PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE dont get with Selena or Demi that would be the WORST couples EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! still just LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE Miley & Nick they’re the BEEEEEEEST Disney starz EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lv Nicky B
i so agree with NICKY as well as O5!
shes being generous, just because nick Jonas has diabetes and they went out doesn’t mean she trying to get his attention, You should just be happy that she is helping out.
So stop friggin hating on the girl when you don’t even know what she was thinking and I’m pretty sure shes over nick.
