Miley Cyrus has a lot to celebrate this week: Her new single "Party in the U.S.A." made a stellar debut at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100, and the controversy over her pole dance at last week's Teen Choice Awards appears to have blown over. But perhaps her greatest joy this week comes from her enthusiasm for the animal kingdom, as her cat gave birth to kittens. Cyrus celebrated via Twitter late last night. "Look what GOD brought me," she tweeted. "My cat Nala had kitties!!!" She even posted an adorable photo of her with one of her newborn pals.
Cyrus even looked to her Internet followers for suggestions. "What should I name em?" she asked the Twitter nation. So far, she hasn't provided any insight into names she may have settled on, though mother cat Nala is likely named after Simba's love interest in "The Lion King."
The 16-year-old star has been tweeting from the studio and preparing for a North American tour that launches on September 14 (conveniently, the day after the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, where her video for "7 Things" is nominated for Best Editing) in Portland, Oregon. Her new EP The Time of Our Lives is set to be released on August 31. The EP will be available exclusively at Wal-Mart as a tie-in to her new clothing line.
But more importantly: What should Cyrus name her kittens? It's not certain how many she is working with, but perhaps Joe, Kevin and Nick would be appropriate? What about Achy and Breaky? If you've got better ideas, drop them in the comments below.
