Miley Cyrus is MTV’s ‘Best Artist of 2013’

This morning, December 11, 2013, MTV anointed Miley Cyrus with the title “Best Artist of 2013″ and, whether or not you agrees with the network’s assessment, it’s worth a look at the reasoning behind the honour.

 According to MTV, “Cyrus dominated both the charts and headlines this year with the release of the critically acclaimed number one album, Bangerz, two in one worldwide smash singles, “We Can’t Stop,” and “Wrecking Ball,” two jaw dropping performances during the 2013 “MTV Video Music Awards” and “MTV EMA”, an original MTV documentary, “Miley: The Movement,” as well as a memorable turn as a host and performer on Saturday Night Live” and that the “criteria for the editorial lists included album and single sales, touring, airplay, social media, Internet and overall impact.”
