Q&A: Why do people think Billy Ray bought his daughters fame?

Question by haha: Why do people think Billy Ray bought his daughters fame?
You cant buy fame. Her dad originally didnt even want to let her leave to pursue her career because of his close attachment to her, that’s what his song “Ready, Set, Dont go” is about. And she auditioned for 2 years and she only got the role because Jordan McCoy and JoJo turned down the role. Her dad was only cast because his daughter was already playing the main character, and since the role was unfilled, and Billy Ray had a close connection to Miley, so he was basically a part of the deal if Miley was part of the show. And she is more famous than him, Billy Ray was only a one hit wonder, so can you honestly say he “bought” her fame.

I can understand maybe saying she doesnt deserve her fame, but her dad “buying” her fame? I think not.

Ive seen interviews, read the biography, and saw her E! documentary, so im pretty sure i know my facts.

Yes he was famous but barely famous at all. One hit Wonder country singer who gave his daughter a small guest spot on his short lived tv show ” DOC”, but she made it to her own solo career on her own, not because of Billy Ray, he didnt even want to let leave to pursue her own career, so why would he give her fame?

Maybe the people who casted her on the show might have given her the role just because her dad was somewhat famous, but that wouldnt make sense because she wasnt the first choice for the role.

to add on to the last paragraph, Jordan McCoy and JoJo, were originally offered the roles,

need proff?

Her her biography, check her E! documentary, watch interviews, or go to wikipedia and check out the production info for Hananh Montana and Ready set Dont go.

and dont even say, “if your parents are famous your kids will be famous”, because she ended up more popular than her dad, and usually the kids dont end up more popular than the parents so that defense doesnt apply.

actually her doent write her songs

they only say that in the tv show. look up the credits for her albums.

the fact is she was the second choice and only got the role because the two other girls previously mentioned turned it down.

Ive done my research, ive got all my sources.

I can agree that Miley doesnt deserve her fame, mostly because of her scandals and mediocre talent, but you cant say anybody “gave” her fame
Not really, since i actually did research, and i like celebrities, plus i actually know what im talking about so its not really a waste for me.
OK I GOT ONE FACT WRONG

the rest is still valid.
