You're fired!
Miley wants out at Hannah Montana
Miley Cyrus is attempting to be fired from the Disney show that catapulted her career, Hannah Montana, according to gossip blog TMZ.com.
Cyrus reportedly wants to kickstart her singing career - following in the footsteps of her achy, breaky Dad, Billy Ray Cyrus. She and Billy Ray are both disrupting filming in a bid to be sacked, say spies at Disney. Cast and crew are said to be incredibly bitter about their pair's unprofessional behaviour, and for their part, Disney execs have not only insisted the ingrates finish their season contract - they've also added six more episodes.
It's a rare move that a celebrity actually wants to be fired from a high-paying, regular TV gig (or, for that matter, any high-paying, regular gig). The history of celeb-sackings is long and rich, so today we're having a look at the stars who have been unceremoniously dumped from their gigs.
