Justin Gaston Is A Name Dropper
Earlier this week we learned that Justin Gaston, 20-year old underwear model and manfriend to 16-year old Miley Cyrus, is featured in the new issue of VMan magazine and altho we got to see his fairly interesting photos, JG’s interview with the mag was not yet available. VMan has since published their interview with the pretty boy model online and, as you might expect, Miley Cyrus’s name comes out of his mouth pretty much every other sentence. In fact, the article is titled Meet Mr. Miley, natch:
Every tween across America has heard the name Justin Gaston, usually prefaced by the phrase “spotted with.” The Pineville, Louisiana, native is the boyfriend of teenage superstar Miley Cyrus, aka Hannah Montana (though neither has ever officially confirmed the relationship). He’s 20 and she’s 16, which might seem a bit scandalous, but they claim to be chaste. They go to church together and are both Christians. And father Billy Ray Cyrus approves. Actually, Billy Ray introduced the couple. While Gaston has been modeling since he was 17, last summer he scored a spot on Nashville Star, the country-music version of American Idol (Billy Ray is the show’s equivalent of Ryan Seacrest). Justin didn’t win the competition, but he did hit it off with papa Cyrus. After Gaston headed back to L.A., the two stayed in touch via text message, and Gaston was soon brought into the family fold. What’s it like being an aspiring 20-year-old in the shadow of a teen sensation? “I look up to her,” says Justin. “It’s nice to have someone there who already knows what’s going on. It helps you plan your next steps.” As with everything he says, Gaston is completely sincere. He can truly be described as a nice guy—and “nice” is exactly what he likes about Miley. “In a girl, I want someone who’s really genuine,” he says. “Someone attractive, but more just really nice.” In the background, Miley interrupts with a quote from the Bible. “Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.” “That’s true, that’s true,” he agrees. Gaston sees music as his future. He will continue modeling and perhaps pursue acting, but he spends most of his time right now writing and singing. And Miley wants to help. “I just got a studio for my birthday,” she shouts after taking the phone. “And I got him a guitar for Christmas. It’s really cool that I can hang out with him and he can help me and I can help him. It’s awesome, really fun. My goal is to become one of the most-wanted producers of 2010, so we have a whole year to get really, really good.”
LOLOLOL! First, I love that Miley was listening in the background during his interview so that she could chime in whenever she wanted. Second, the fact that Billy Ray Cyrus is the one responsible for his 16-year old daughter dating a 20-year old man who practically lives in their home … I mean, wow! I would not be surprised AT ALL if Miley ends up pulling a Bristol Palin. Just wait and see.
But, if you can believe it, Justin Gaston does more than just hang out with Miley Cyrus and various members of her family … he also does do some work … sometimes. After the jump, check out photos of JG “working” in Las Vegas, NV this past week …
Justin Gaston was one of the featured models who walked the runway during gaudy Christian Audigier’s Fashion Show in Vegas this week:
Ha! Justin makes a pretty ridic-looking cowboy but, hey, he’s gotta pay the bills somehow. Oh, waitaminute … no he doesn’t … not when he’s got a sweet gig being Miley Cyrus’s lapdog/arm candy. What a life, what a life.

Being a mom, I just don’t understand that.

They got to skate at Tony Hawks place and then go see Coldplay!?!? Wtf…very jealous. But also angry because they’re both worthless.

Haha… I didn’t know he was from Pineville, LA…… He surely doesn’t LOOK like it! (too cute)

Does anyone else wish Miley would go away?

Miley spitting out Bible quotes just strikes me as a little funny
February 21st, 2009 at 3:32 pm
This would be funny if it wasn’t so nauseating. From the name-dropping to the bible quotes to the idea of this tool in a studio with Miley as a producer? It’s more effective than a bottle of ipecac.

Ew, I didn’t know he was from Louisiana. That’s like a 2 hour drive from where I grew up.

There are some guys that are meant to be seen and not heard. He is one of them. Shutup and get nekkid, then everything is A OK!
February 21st, 2009 at 5:22 pm
ahhhhhhhh in that last picture, he looks JUST like billy ray!!!!
February 21st, 2009 at 6:29 pm
I still say Miley is the beard and it’s Justin/Billy Ray all the way. Strangely, I would not be as offended were this the case, but Miley/Justin offends me greatly. I think I shall sue her for $4 billion.

As someone who is the same age as Miley, infact a bit older, I would like to say what is she doing with a 20 year old?? Can he not get someone his own age? Thats what me and my friends always say bout considerabely older boys. So im confused. and @dawn …ummm shes a girl, he is a man!?
February 22nd, 2009 at 3:42 am
My mother loves ASSHOLES like him, folks!!
February 22nd, 2009 at 4:50 am
I don’t know!when I was 16 I always hung out with older people,but it seems to me that maybe model boy is using Miley to male it in the music business I am just waiting to hear him sing..

@ Angie – you took the words right out of my mouth. I just can’t imagine her quoting scripture when one of her token phrases on screen is “____ say whaaaat?”

I could care less about this father/daughter/friend triangle, but I met my (now husband of over 11 years) when I was 16 and he was 20. It’s all about how adult you really are mentally. I see nothing wrong here. She grew up fast and yes is still a little immature but daddy is in between them for right now so what does it matter.

Trent why do you have to compair her to Bristol Palin? Bristol and Miley have nothing in common. Better to compair her to Jamie Lynn Spears. Disney, pop star, singer…..
February 22nd, 2009 at 9:22 am
@courtney — good point
February 22nd, 2009 at 10:20 am
Sarah, I’m sure he could get someone his own age, or even older. But why would he want to? Miley=fame and fortune. Who even heard of this guy before she started seeing him!

You are a very smart person!
