'Dancing with the Stars' locks up Miley Cyrus -- as a performer

Miley Cyrus is still getting some support from Disney after her controversial "lap dance" video -- ABC has just booked the "Hannah Montana" star for an appearance on "Dancing with the Stars" for Tuesday's results show.

The song scheduled for performance will be "Can't Be Tamed," which is already generating a great deal of airplay. "Dancing" is the perfect gig for Miley in many ways, since the song will also then be available for download on iTunes. Could this lead to the song making a huge jump on the Billboard chart? It's incredibly likely, since two of the main factors in determining chart placement are radio airplay and digital sales.

Will you watching "Dancing with the Stars" Tuesday for Miley Cyrus, or were you planning to tune in anyway? Let me know your thoughts with a comment and stay tuned for more of the latest TV news. (Follow this link for recent photos of Miley.)

    hmm, well I was going to watch anyway (go evan!) but this should be interesting. I don't think she's a very good live singer, and the song isn't the best, but she's better than some of the others so far.
