By: Erin MooreDespite a plethora of rumors to the contrary, Miley Cyrus, known as “Hannah Montana” to millions of fans, is not pregnant, says her rep. The 15-year-old star of Disney’s “Hannah Montana” allegedly told teen magazine J-14, "I'm going to take good care of my baby. I've already gained seven pounds. I was in real shock when it happened accidentally. I went a little too far. I'm sorry to all of my fans." The internet has been abuzz with gossip about the young star, which is now being refuted as complete fabrication.
The daughter of country music sensation Billy Ray Cyrus, Miley Cyrus is also a singer and songwriter. She is a role model to many young girls, and this admission could have had major repercussions for her budding career.
