Contrary to rumors that the Mouse House was forcing its favorite child to lay low, Miley Cyrus is in fact set to perform Saturday at the Disney Channel Games in Orlando, Fla.The show — which wraps a week-long charity event at Walt Disney World — comes on the heels of Cyrus' acknowledgment that she was "embarrassed" over photos from a Vanity Fair shoot that surfaced last weekend. The pics, which feature Cyrus in less clothing than her typical Hannah Montana attire, were widely discussed for their provocative nature.

But in their most recent video post, we have to give Miley Cyrus and her little friend Mandy props for choreographing (or at least participating in) an entire video set to Madonna and JT's hit song "4 Minutes." We could do without the first minute or so, but those back-up dancers' talent makes up for it in the end. Your take: Miley & Mandy—love 'em or hate 'em?
