Miley Cyrus will reportedly be taking part in “The Miley Cyrus Show” skit on Saturday Night Live when she hosts the show on March 5, 2011. The skit has aired a couple times so far on the comedy show and makes fun of Miley, her attitude, her speech and her father, Billy Ray Cyrus.
A source for SNL revealed:
Miley comes in for rehearsals next week which is when she will officially sign off on the ideas the writers present to her. There have already been discussions about her interest in doing a skit with Vanessa [Bayer] parodying her. She is really looking forward to it.
Are you excited that Miley has agreed to take part in this skit? Or do you think she should avoid it?
Congratulations are in order for ABC which has struck a deal with the Oscar Academy Awards to air the show on the network through 2020. The previous contract was set to expire in 2014 so ABC gained a few extra years with the new deal. However, international rights to the show, held by the Walt Disney Company (parent company of ABC), are part of a separate deal that has not been renewed past 2014 yet.
No word yet on how much ABC paid for the new deal.
