Miley Cyrus Hoax

J-14 found itself at the center of a controversy in the fall of 2007, when it was rumored to have reported that actress Miley Cyrus was pregnant. The rumors started after celebrity web sites picked up a fake article from J-14 magazine, which claimed the “Hannah Montana” star was pregnant, and multiple blogs and fan pages lit up with the news. Shortly thereafter, J-14 made a statement denying having made the report and pointed out the page from their July issue had been spoofed to make the report.
