Miley Cyrus will appear as a guest mentor to the remaining 11 finalists on tomorrow night’s American Idol. The 17-year-old Hannah Montana star will help the contestants prepare to perform songs that have hit No. 1 on the Billboard chart Hot 100.
Past mentors have included Jennifer Lopez, Andrea Bocelli, and Miley’s godmother Dolly Parton.
On Wednesday’s show, Miley will perform her song “When I Look At You.” She isn’t the only Disney star making an appearance on this week’s Idol. Lovebirds Joe Jonas and Demi Lovato will perform their duet, “Make a Wave,” on the March 24 Idol Results Show.
The contestants were originally expected to compete in a teen idol themed week, but the song list was changed to a more generic Billboard hits selection, FOX said Monday.
Cyrus is currently promoting her upcoming new movie The Last Song – a romantic drama written by “The Notebook” author Nicholas Sparks — which also stars the teen’s current boyfriend, Liam Hemsworth.
