Posted on August 30, 2015 by Judy

Well, she never really existed, did she. But talk about your BFLs (big fat lies, I think I just made that up). For five years Miley Cyrus, aka Hannah, was the idol of just about every pre-preteen girl in America. … Continue reading →

Posted on August 21, 2015 by Judy
