Miley Cyrus is ruling the box office with the Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour
Miley Cyrus is crushing the box office competition! She beat out Jessica Alba and Eva Longoria Parker at the box office.
Despite opening on just 683 screens, her concert flick Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour raked in $29 million, nabbing the No. 1 spot at the box office.
By comparison, Jessica Alba’s horror flick The Eye, which opened on four times as many screens, netted $13 million. Eva Longoria Parker’s comedy Over Her Dead Body opened on less than 2,000 theaters, earning a paltry $4.6 million.
“Miley is the hottest entertainer in America,” says Us movie critic, Thelma Adams. “She’s got music, movie and TV appeal — she’s a triple threat!”
Meanwhile, Longoria Parker “is still seen as a Desperate Housewife,” Adams says. “She cannot sell a movie, and doesn’t have a film career yet.”
And despite Alba’s recent misfires — her last bomb Good Luck Chuck only made about $35 million — Adams says, “I don’t think you can judge Jessica Alba by this. She’s very charming and appeals both to men and women. She just has to pick good projects.”

As the mother of an eight year old daughter, I am one of the millions of parents who took their child to see this movie. I think Miley/Hannah is a positive role model for my daughter and I would have loved to take her to the concert. Since I could not afford to do so, I took her to the movie this weekend. I purchsed the tickets online so I didn’t have a problem getting them and it was worth every penny. It is a shame her concert tickets were so overpriced though.

Man, Miley Cyrus seems so mature and worldly for her age. I hope she continues to be a positive role model for young girls! Her parents should be very proud of her! This kid is 15 and she rules the world basically! Must be nice! Go Miley!

I really dont think Miley/Hannah is THAT talented. I mean-she does have talent but she is mostly hype! I can think of 3 better singers then her. I like her. but she is mostly hype. I dont think children should be exposed to her as much as they has been!
