Miley's Time to Move On

Could there soon be real competition between Miley Cyrus and fellow tween Disney sensation Selena Gomez? Gomez, 15, currently stars in the hit, Wizards of Waverly Place on the Disney Channel, although last year, she appeared as Mikayla, one of Hannah's pop star rivals on two episodes of Hannah Montana. However, could the onscreen feud come to life soon? According to E! Online, for the time being, Gomez is up for the Warner Bros. movie, Another Cinderella Story, which is scheduled for a fall release. On top of her new and upcoming role, she had also been in the studio recording several new songs for the flick. "The studio has high hopes for this," claims a source. "Selena sings and acts and is really young," reports a source, before stating, "She is going to be the next Miley Cyrus. [Disney executives] really want this." However, a Disney representative still insists there are no plans to attempt to replace Cyrus with Gomez in any way. "We are fortunate to work with a host of young actors and actresses who are each unique and making their own trajectory based on their talent," the same representative stated via email earlier. "However, Wizards of Waverly Place is a bona fide hit with kids and families, and licensees and retailers are indeed interested in the series. As for Selena, she deserves all the success that's coming her way."
