Miley Cyrus took away another award this year, but she may not want it. According to a recent AOL survey, 42 percent of teens between ages 9 to 15 voted her the worst celebrity influence of 2009. Kanye and Britney followed behind in the top three spots.
Yet at the same time, the survey showed lots of love for Miley! The same poll put her in fourth for favorite female artist. So do we love her or hate her? True, she did pole dance at the Teen Choice Awards, in addition to her relationship with Justin Gaston, who was just a tad bit older than her, but she also brings us hits like "Party in the USA!" Sigh...we are torn when it comes to Miley.
What do you think about Miley? She did deserve to get the award for worst celebrity influence?

Whoever was responsible for naming the Kardashian's reality show Keeping Up with the Kardashians should be given a prize, because it is definitely hard to keep up with this family!
With the news of Kourtney's pregnancy, Khloe's maybe almost drug scare on Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami and now her recent quickie marriage to Lamar Odom, we start to wonder, do you even feel like keeping up with the Kardashians anymore?
Check out below what CosmoGirl readers had to say:
Lacy from Mason City, IA: "Who cares if Kourtney is pregnant? The drug scare with Khloe was probably just a publicity stunt. I am sick of reality shows."
Brittany from Pasadena, MD: "I think reality TV is so overdone. I don't even watch it anymore."
Casslina from New York, NY: "Ugh! Can they be any more dramatic? I mean come on ladies don't you think you have enough attention? It's getting ridiculous! Drugs, sex, and being fake! You're just a bunch of socialites trying to make history!"
Abbey from Castle Rock, CO: "Keeping up with the Kardashians used to be my favorite show. A little drama here and there kept things interesting, but now all the drama is getting really annoying. It is getting really old and now I don't watch anything about them. They have become a little trashy too. All this sex and stuff that they are showing on there TV is putting images into people minds which really shouldn't be happening. Whatever happened to modest TV? I don't know, but i hope it comes back soon."

SPOTTED! The gorgeous Hilary Duff filming Gossip Girl right outside the CosmoGirl office yesterday! The blonde bombshell was wearing a beautiful purple dress and was itching to change her shoes right after her scene. We don't blame her they looked pretty high!
With a little luck (and a lot of creeping around the cameras) we were able to catch Duff mid shoe change from her nude heels to a comfy pair of UGGs. She is even prettier in person!
Have you ever spotted a celeb on the streets? Tell us about it below!

I love living in New York, but sometimes it can be terrifying. No, I'm not talking about fear of getting my purse stolen or heckled by construction workers, I'm talking about the mob of girls who wait 35 hours to see Justin Bieber perform on the Today Show!
YouTube sensation turned overnight celebrity Bieber put on a concert at Rockefeller Plaza Monday morning to promote his debut album My World, which hits stores Nov. 17. The teen heartthrob performed to thousands of screaming girls, in addition to some screaming parents too!
Check out Bieber's performance below of his hit "One Time" and "Lonely Girl."

Twitter has got the whole world expressing themselves in 140 characters or less, especially when it comes to celebrities! Celebs love telling fans what they are doing, where they are eating, and who they are seeing. It's becoming second nature to check Twitter as often as you would check your inbox.
Which is why it is surprising that one of the biggest celebrity tweeters has done the unthinkable and deleted her account! Miley Cyrus suddenly went missing from the tweet-o-sphere this weekend with no explanation, until now.
Miley wrote on her official site that her hiatus from Twitter is nothing against the fans, but instead a personal move. "I often complain to the ones closest to me that I don't seem to have much of a private life anymore and part of that is my fault," she wrote. "How can I whine about my life being to public if I am the one telling the world what I am doing? Some things in my life need to stay in my life only and not on some gossip site."
Miley also goes on to say it's not just Twitter she is taking a break from, it's the entire Internet. "I just think kids all over the world could maybe take a little vacation from cyberspace. My problem with the Internet is it makes negativity so available. It allows people to anonymously hurt others without any consequences. That is not the real world. Not only that, but if we spent more time enjoying what we are doing besides tweeting about it, we would enjoy our lives a whole lot more."

When it comes to cell phones, I am pretty picky. I hate when I have to lug around a huge phone that resembles Zack Morris's Saved by the Bell-era cell but get one too tiny and I literally can't use it because the keys are too small.
I recently tried out the Nokia Twist phone from Verizon Wireless and felt like I was living my own story of Goldilocks and the Three Cell Phones. It wasn't too big, the keyboard wasn't too small, it was just right!
The phone comes as a compact square and twists up for use of a full QWERTY keyboard. It's the perfect size for sticking in your clutch on the weekends with a screen that's large enough so you don't have to squint to see who is texting you. All this and it's only $99.99!
Even though it's small, it comes fully loaded with a camera, full HTML browsing access and tons of memory to download music. I didn't think it was possible, but I think I'm in technology love.
What kind of cell phone do you use? Do you like it?
