Smart List: Pop culture talking points
By Denise Martin, Special to the Times
Theres no avoiding talk about: Miley Cyrus’ new album, Breakout. Because as good as See You Again was -- and it was good -- her angry new tune 7 Things is better. And ever since that Vanity Fair debacle and those bra-baring photos surfaced, weve decided shes pretty darn cool. You might as well give in. (Tuesday) (Lori Shepler / Los Angeles Times)
Some will talk about: Justin Timberlake hosting the 2008 ESPY Awards. ESPNs annual tribute show honors the best in sports moments, teams and players. Timberlakes not that surprising a choice either, because nothing says sports this year like a duet with Madonna. (Today) (Valerie Macon / Getty Images)
