this week the New York Times will run
the first in a six-part series examining
America's overuse of Hannah Montana star
Miley Cyrus most experts now agree that
at current usage levels Miley Cyrus will
be drained dry of entertainment value by
2013 joining us now is Miley researcher
Dr Justin KY from The Institute for
sustainable Cyrus use doctor you say
this is the worst entertainment crisis
humanity is ever faced absolutely Miley
is a potent entertainment resource but
we are overusing her at unprecedented
levels uh she's on television albums
toys clothing she has a sold out live
concert series if we don't act now the
downto Earth Miley who likes text
messaging with her friends and playing
guitar in her bedroom will be wiped off
the Earth forever you point to the
examples of Lindsay Lohan uh Britney
Spears the olssen twins well they were
uh Bountiful entertainment resources
that are overc consumption reduced to
smoldering remnants but we are burning
through Miley at a far more aggressive
rate then what is the timeline here
typically a teenage star can have
profits drilled from her for
approximately 6 years before dropping
down to is she to Wild levels Miley was
discovered only 3 years ago and already
there's pregnancy rumors the photo
scandal however though Disney says it
has plans to pump songs and shows out of
Mile for at least another 3 to 5 years
before discarding what's left of her she
won't last that long within 2 years
years she'll be little more than a
withered desiccated husk incapable of
causing anyone any amusement at all so
what are the consequences if we don't
cut back on our Miley use as Miley
entertainment becomes more and more
scarce the millions of families across
the world that have grown dependent on
it will begin to fight for it or hoard
it society as we know it will fail to
function governments will collapse
Humanity will be reduced to roving
tribes of Barbarians constantly
searching and fighting and scouring the
landscape for the last remaining Hannah
Montana fashion doll or the best of both
World CD uh incidentally that that is
the future that's depicted on the cover
of my new book a bleak Prospect Dr
Justin KY of the institute for
sustainable Cyrus use thank you sir
thank you coming up an earthquake wiped
out etes sketchist stand today
