Miley Cyrus seems desperate to make the transition from wholesome Disney princess to teen pop star. She has tried every trick in the book: sexy music video, scandalous photos purporting to show her not wearing any underwear, even kissing a girl during a performance. Unfortunately, the opening week sales of her new, more adult album Can’t Be Tamed were an underwhelming 103,000 copies, far less than the opening week of her previous album The Time of Our Lives. So what should 17-year-old Miley do now? Former child star Kellie Martin — best known for starring in the series ‘Life Goes On‘ and ‘Christy‘ and playing doomed intern Lucy Knight on ‘E.R‘ has some unexpected career advice for the starlet: go to school. Martin, who will appear on ‘Drop Dead Diva‘ July 11th and stars in the upcoming NBC movie ‘The Jensen Project’ told Fancast, “I would tell Miley to go to college. I really think that saved me. Fred [Savage] went to Stanford, Mayim [Bialik] went to UCLA, I went to Yale.” For the record, Bialik now has a PhD in neuroscience and a role as Sheldon’s (Jim Parsons) new love interest on the red hot ‘Big Bang Theory.’ Savage moved behind the camera and is now a director and producer whose credits include ‘Party Down‘ and ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.’ None have been arrested, had compromising photos taken of them, or gone bankrupt. 1990s teen stars: smarter and more talented than you ever imagined.
