While my guitar gently weeps!
Miley Cyrus (a trifle subdued) appeared on the Today Show at the crack of dawn to tout a tune - "The Last Song" - to be released on March 31st in tandem with the release of her new feature film.
In fact, on a couple of occasions when the camera panned to the pretty songbird to promote the upcoming segment, she appeared to be a bit pensive.
Is it possible that the "hot" Disney property was unaware that she was on air?
When the interview got underway, she brightened a tad, but appeared to be holding back.
Perhaps, Ms. Cyrus is not an early riser.
Or, just maybe, a hot new bedmate keeps here awake nights?
Yes, Miley fessed up.
Her new beau - who she met during the throes of auditioning actors (who said the casting couch was dead in Hollywood?) - has captured her heart.
As I reported in a post last week - on the heels of Miley's appearance on Jay Leno's tonight show - the perky actress gushed about her decision to request that handsome Liam Hemsworth play opposite her in the romantic drama.

"He opened the door for me. I thought that was excellent."
Now, a full-blown (!) spring romance is surfacing between-the-sheets.
However, Dad (Billy Ray Cyrus) didn't make the cut.
Greg Kinnear was scooped to play her make-believe father on screen, instead.
Maybe she didn't want the country-rock star spying on her (or getting in the way) now that there is a bit of hanky-panking doing down in her charmed life?
News at 11!
Meanwhile, screenwriter Nicholas Sparks tagged along to disuss his script.
How did the collaboration come to fruition?
"We got together casually at the dinner table. I think it worked out because it wasn't a heavy business thing," Miley explained with a bit of blush cresting on her pretty face.
Nicholas, a beaming pleasant-looking man, chirped that he was so happy to be able to wake up each day and do what he does best.
"The Lord gives us gifts. We need to use and maximum them."
And, he's doing just that.
In a slightly a**-backs approach, Sparks proceeded to pen a novel after the screenplay was in development at Disney.
I expect there will be prequels, sequels, you name it!
Yes, there may be a lucrative franchise on the horizon - spinning Miley in untold directions - now that Hanna Montana has been axed.
Miley pointed out that the role was a toughie.
"It was a challenge to make her likeable since there are angry confrontations with her parents," she noted in so many words.
Once you catch the flick, Cyrus asserted that filmgoers may be inclined to run out and call individuals in their life that they've pushed away.
"That's how powerful the story is."
Tapping into the voice of a teenage-girl required a lot of concentrated effort she wailed.
I don't know why!
Miley's just a scant piece of bubblegum away from being a tweenie herself.
The teen-bopper crowd hasn't written her off - as totally over-the-hill - just yet.
Especially when you consider that Miley just beat out Sandra Bullock at the Kid's Choice Awards in the category for best Actress.
She managed to avoid getting slimed, too.
The universe is no doubt unfolding as it should.
Method acting?
