It may break Billy Ray Cyrus' achy heart to know that his 14 years old daughter and co-star, Miley is widely considered more talented than he is. Then again, Billy Ray has always been a proud father and expressed nothing but admiration for his daughter.
In terms of a father-daughter talent contest, one could make a strong case for Billy Ray. He started his career in music where his first record went 9x platinum, he has sold over 10,000,000 records, had a #1 country hit and eight top 10 country singles. And now Billy Ray is a regular TV personality who starred in Doc from 2001 to 2004, has had many guest appearances and has been co-starring with his daughter for the past two years in the Disney Channel hit, Hannah Montana.
Miley Cyrus' career on the other hand only spans four years since she her first guest appearance on her dad's TV show, Doc. Since then she has had numerous appearances on TV, but has really made a name for herself as Miley Stewart a.k.a. Hannah Montana on the Hannah Montana show. As a result of the TV show, Miley has released two record albums that have done well and served as sound tracks for her TV show.
Those four years have given the public enough exposure to Miley to pronounce her more talented than her father by almost a 2:1 margin in a recent public opinion poll conducted on the Vizu Answers network of entertainment oriented websites.
