Who did celebs like Miley Cyrus and Sofia Vergara idolize growing up?
"I was a big boy band fan when I was younger. I loved watching them dance, so that inspired me to want to dance," Cyrus told TVGuide.com on the red carpet at the Kids' Choice Awards.
Modern Family's Vergara, on the other hand, couldn't get enough of teen hunk Johnny Depp. "I used to see 21 Jump Street when I was in Colombia," she says.

Break out the eggnog (non-alcoholic, of course) all you Drake & Josh fans, and start celebrating the holidays early this year! Nickelodeon has just announced that two of their most popular stars Drake Bell and Josh Peck, will be reuniting for a new, two-hour original TV movie Drake & Josh: Best Christmas Ever.

Jeers to Nickelodeon for promoting Superhero Movie during tween-friendly shows like iCarly. Sure, it stars Drake Bell from the network’s Drake & Josh, but the PG-13 flick also features — to quote the MPAA advisory — “crude and sexual content, comic violence, drug references and language.” (Not to mention Leslie Nielsen having sex with a corpse.)
