True fact – America produces the most fun teenage experience in the world that is media savvy. In particular a vision of the teen of California. Creating such pictures of California youth is a big global industry industry the world loves.
This year, Selena Gomezwas the third most popular name in entertainment in the US. Miley Cyrus no.7. What both stars have in common is that they were spun concurrently via Disney’s child-star making factory. Selena in direct response to Miley’s star phenomenon no one quite expected to occur as evidently as it did.
The U.K Daily News reports that Disney has appealed to Britney Spears & Justin Timberlake to help mentor its child stars and ex-stars–in sharing about making the transitions as famous kids to adults.
Good luck with that! There’s not really a “From fame to real life” manual–it’s up to every individual to navigate that for themselves–but I like the sentiment of mentoring. Sounds wise. The weird thing about Disney is that child actors aren’t really thought about while they make the lucrative bucks for Disney–their problems begins when the child star realizes how much Disney (or the world of Entertainment) has taken from their young lives in the fame trade-off. Is Disney doing damage control here? Looks like it.
However, Disney is the surest way to create child stars from America perceived to be credible in the world. Such is the enduring legacy of Walt Disney as a star brand.

Two of the world’s most popular teens this year Justin Bieber and Selena Gomezwere snapped sharing a laugh in Miami. Along with Miley Cyrusand Taylor Lautnerthese teens ranked in Google’s top ten names in the world of people most searched for on a search engine in 2010. Bieber and Gomez in the top three.
Both Gomez and Cyrus were spun into stars from Disney perhaps indicating the strength of the Mouse House to generate global stars. Singing teens is a key of the world’s brightest stars today.
Talking to Just Jared (via digital spy), Demi Lovato says Miley Cyrus is the sweetest friend in the biz to turn to for advice. Says Lovato:
“Miley has been in the spotlight longer than I have, so I go to her. I can text her that I’m crying and stressed out, and she’ll reply back, ‘All right, here’s what you do’. She’s the sweetest thing in the world.”
I have to agree with Demi Lovato, Hollywood’s baby bird, Miley Cyrus is the sweetest thing in the world. She’s got grunt, she’s sweet and in my book, she’s adorable!
Selena Gomez has a lot of fans on Kings Rd in West Hollywood. Here’s a recap as to why Selena thinks a trip to Africa can be life changing for American children and global citizens of the world. Love her!
What a cutie pie for the UN and America. ;)

Selena Gomez is as talented as Miley Cyrus. She is Disney‘s number 2 princess with America’s youth audiences.
Where Miley can sight a show biz dad, and put on a country twang to more ‘be herself’ culturally as an American in Disney generated media, Gomez has not yet been afforded that privilege to truly be a Latina-American from Disney.
However, the numbers are in Gomez’s favor. 1 in 4 children in US kindergartens are Latino. Gomez’s platform as a recognized star of this audience base and most Americans will stand the young singer, actor, dancer in good steed. She is a triple threat.
Unicef acknowledged Selena Gomez’s importance in the world, giving Selena the same honor afforded Angelina Jolie, when they hand picked her to be the youngest Unicef Ambassador in history.
I love her. This girl is J-Lo now. And man …. she can dance! You voted her your 40th top star in Hollywood for 2009.
Pop star Shakira‘s performance at The American Music Awards, Sunday at the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles deserves a mention.
Military Janet JacksonRhythm Nation choreography meets the Broadway feel of Stomp is what she rocked out with at the AMAs.
Not only was she uber hot, but her statement to the world with a team of all African American female dancers in her troupe was a pretty powerful statement in support of America’s leadership switch this year.
This girl is pro the future of America, but also the world as an international artist. Most of Shakira’s fan base are not in the US. Her anti-war message of Peace over bullets was also very cool mid performance. Whitney Houston and Bobbie Christina‘s pure enjoyment of Shakira’s performance and entertainment is priceless. Enjoy!
Go Shaki, go! Love her.

First Miley Cyrus dissed Twilight’s New Moon film, cast and crew by saying she doesn’t like vampires at all.
Now Selena Gomez, another Disney star has come out swinging too.
Says Gomez on the Bonnie Hunt show, rather sheepishly, “I don’t watch them. Sorry, I feel bad–even though I am a teenager.”
Gomez used to date New Moon star, Taylor Lautner for a bit, so she should be ashamed of herself today, raising the Disney flag in Hollywood to diss the non-Disney film. Jokes.
For Disney though, clearly it is box office war as they instruct their starlets to fire shots at the Summit Entertainment film. Interesting. Meow!

Blog numbers don’t lie on the internet. Their numbers are 3-4 months ahead of magazines in who the world’s biggest stars are.
These are the top ranking stars and celebrities so far this year, here in Hollywood. For whatever reason, you the global audience on Horiwood.Com voted for them and gave them the attention you feel they deserve as entertainers who amuse you. Enjoy your celebrities for 2009!
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie may be what everyone perceive to be the most searched for celebrities in the world, but it is actually surprise up-and-coming stars, like Nikki Reid of The Twilight Saga, Johnny Markoudakis of West Hollywood and Miss Tessa (a fashion designer, artist and model) of New Zealand who keep the fame game interesting.
Of course Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett’s deaths and Rihanna’s domestic violence issue with Chris Brown have been some of the biggest media moments this year in entertainment. 2009′s popularity this year however, has to belong to author Stephenie Meyer and the bevvy of young Hollywood actors that she created and spun into young Hollywood superstars with her Twilight Saga novels through Summit Entertainment.
Of noteworthy significance is what Stephenie Meyer has done for Native American people in giving young American ‘Indian’ actors a center stage spotlight in mainstream cinemas again in our times. That’s amazing today, as the blog numbers show.
So, it’s with great pleasure that I present to you, your 50 top celebrities on Horiwood.Com. Thanks Team.
1. NIKKI REID:She is the naughty girl of the Twilight Saga film franchise, whose often held under wraps, by Summit Entertainment. When the heat was on Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson’s chemistry, it was Nikki’s scene stealing appearance with Native American Indian youngster, Taylor Lautner, that garnered Nikki Reid the top spot all year on Horiwood.Com. This one pic is the most searched for on this entertainment and news website in Hollywood. Reid is a big ‘sleeping’ star in the making.
2. DAVID CARRADINE: the veteran, Hollywood actor’s kinky & mysterious death, was a fascinating look into the darker side of human nature. People all over the world are still interested in David Carradine’s tragic passing.
3. KATHERINE HEIGL: She’s one of the most underpaid TV actresses in prime time. Blake Lively of Gossip Girl earns thousands more than Heigl does on hit medic show, Grey’s Anatomy. Heigl’s costar, Ellen Pompeio does too. Despite, being under appreciated in the TV pay stakes and being gracious about it, Katherine Heigl is often framed as a b*tch by LA media. However, my friends who work on the set of Grey’s each day, say that you will never find a sweeter star whose more of a team player in Hollywood than “Ms Heigl.”
Her divaness to turn on a show Hollywood style becomes apparent on the red carpet, or in the quirky romantic comedy films she appears in (Knocked Up and The Ugly Truth). Heigl channels old Hollywood glamour. She is the real deal, and comes in at #3 on Horiwoood.Com’s most searched for celebrities.
4. HAYDEN PANETTIERE: The stories that the film crew of Heroes TV series, tell in Hollywood of Hayden Panettiere are hysterical. This girl is not a child in any way, but she has a cult teen following here in America. Hayden Panettiere is a young actress who fascinates American girls. They all want to be like her. This image of Hayden in a country straw hat, and cut off shorts, clocks in at number 4 for the year to date, on Horiwood.Com. America loves a country girl gone bad. Add Heroes’ action, super-powers to her and Hayden Panettiere has it made.
5. LADY GAGA: When it comes to the world of pop, there is no other debut artist who has made the impressions with music, attitude and show-personship than Stefani Germanotta’s Lady Gaga creation. She always brings the fierce, is a great songwriter and lyricist; and Lady Gaga will wear anything outrageous to capture a headline every week. She’s a relentless marketing machine. However, it is her claim that Lady Gaga is bisexual, that ensured her rise to fame this year, as this post proves on Horiwood.Com.
6. AMBER ROSE: She is not a singer, she is not an actress. Her claim to fame is that she is an African American model, who happened to date hip hop artist, Kanye West. But Amber Rose totally fascinates people daily on Horiwood.Com. She is the most underrated person on the celebrity set in America. But her fame online supersedes many stars who still say that they are stars. The internet never lies. That’s Amber Rose’s proof in today’s celebrity rankings. This girl is huge!
Her sultry beauty and no nonsense diva attitude, combine the best of fashion, urban chic groove and hip hop music. She just is who she is, a true star as her ratings position and popularity reveals on Horiwood.Com. Amber Rose is the new Nicole Richie, basically.
7. KRISTEN STEWART: The Twilight Saga’s, Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse films show how one author’s vision can create a superstar if they have the beauty, smarts and chops to fill the role. Stephenie Meyer gave actress Kristin Stewart, the chance to show the world who she really is. She’s a stunner and a big star on Horiwood.Com. LA raised, Stewart’s family all work in film, on the crew side of the production line. When Kristen stepped over the gaffer tape line, she has never looked back and a superstar, playing Twilight’s Bella was born.
I love her singing voice too. Like her face, her voice is so pretty and soulful. A girl who can make both Robert Pattinson hot and also Taylor Lautner so hot, has got to have enough sensuality to do this. Stewart proves she has. She is often a hate target of bloggers like PerezHilton.Com and female fans in love with her costar, Robert Pattinson, but Stewart keeps going from strength to strength here in her native LA. We love her!
8. MILEY CYRUS: She is because she is. She stepped into the ready made American shoes, of Britney Spears, teen pop star sensationalism. Having met Miley Cyrus in person, there is nothing to explain why America’s reigning teen superstar has the ranking that she does on Horiwood.Com with our global audience. I swear, Miley is so much prettier in person. She’s also incredibly smart. In person, Cyrus is so humble. That’s the shocking part. She’s a bundle of sweetness that fears God and who is naughty a lot too like any kid her own age, adjusting, growing and living life.
In spite of being a global megastar, Miley Cyrus is just such an American teenager! Love her!!!
9. MICHAEL JACKSON: He was the King of Pop and the third most famous person on the planet, after the Queen of England and The Pope. The world stopped to honor a person who was rich in complexity and talent. He paved the way for all African Americans to be loved in high profile positions in America and worldwide. This cannot be diminished or forgotton as your votes this year show today.
There will never be a performer quite like Michael Jackson. Barry Gordy described Michael Jackson as “the greatest entertainer on the planet” at his memorial service. Too true!
10. FARRAH FAWCETT: Charlie’s Angels hottest star ever. The beauty of Farrah Fawcett was always her strength of spirit. This became apparent as the lovely Farrah left this world, losing her battle to anal cancer. She ranks by all audience viewers worldwide at #10 on Horiwood.Com so far in 2009. What a gem of a human being!
This post is dedicated to Desirae Rogers in Team Obama in The White House. Nothing you do Desirae Rogers in service to your nation and its great young leaders is meaningless. You are creating a legacy of love, creativity, vision and hope that will last in your inspiring service to America. Thank you from LA. I see you girl. You rock!
