    I think Selena gomez and miley cyrus are both good role models but for some people it might be Selena over miley and to some it might be miley over selena but like i said before they are both good role models no matter what has happened in the past people such as young girls in particular look up to them both.

    Miley Cyrus is a terrible role model. She has a tattoo adn a boyfriend over the age of eighteen. Not tot mention she does all of these things and is a Disney channel star. She should be banned from television.

    How can you say miley Cyrus is a bad role model! Just coz she has made some mistekes doesn't make her bad...If anyone else had done that it would of been ok!!! Selena is to big headed for me! but shes ok i guess, she neva stands owt.

    I'm doing an english project and i'm trying to find a good celebrity role model. It's realy hard because celebrities are just people the same as us who are fortunate enough (or not depending on how you look at it) to get attention from the press.

    Miley Cyrus should be added to the list because she does set a great example but overall Selena Gomez is the best!!! To me she is very unique in her own way and is clean.
