Miley Cyrus
The Last Song is a 2010 American teen romantic drama film written by Nicholas Sparks.  Miley Cyrus played a troubled teenager reconnecting with the estranged father and falls in love during a summer in a quiet beach town.  This movie was created with the hopes to create a star vehicle to help Cyrus break out of the pop persona that developed during Cyrus' portrayal of a pop star on a children's television series, Hanna Montana.  Hanna Montana expanded into a globally successful media franchise however it was time to introduce Miley Cyrus to older audiences.  The movie received negative reviews from the critics but despite of this, it was well received by the fans.
