Burning Qs: Miley's Poll Numbers & LOL Religion

Why does the media think the general public cares about Miley Cyrus?
—S. Worton

Because the general public cares about Miley Cyrus. Sure, the media makes stuff up. But it doesn't make that stuff up.

"Yes, the public definitely care about Miley Cyrus," says Gerry Philpott, CEO of E-Poll Market Research. In fact, among Americans over age 13, 60 percent knew who she was even before she posed for that desperate Vanity Fair spread.

And it only got worse after that. "After Vanity Fair and her tour last year, Miley is now at 70 percent awareness," Philpott tells me. "People are still interested in her, no doubt."

Well, heck. At least she's pure.

Is Lindsay Lohan really dating a woman?
—Christine, East Haven, Conn.

She says she is.

Good piece on Hollywood getting religion wrong. We are waiting with bated breath for Bill Maher's Religulous to come out, "we" meaning the Coexist Comedy Tour—a Hindu, a Muslim, a Christian, a Buddhist and an Atheist walk into a bar. Hope you can make it to one of our shows!
—Cheers, Tapan Trivedi, The Hindu

Mmm. Depends. Is the bar hosted? I'll take a whiskey and holy water.

Hey Answer B!tch and B!tchling. I was wondering what you guys thought about the singer Kerli and her new song "Walking on Air." Thanks!
—Leah, Alberta, Canada

I think that someone wishes she were Rihanna.
