Billy Ray Cyrus Praises Daughter, Shady Older Boyfriend

If Billy Ray Cyrus thinks Miley Cyrus and Justin Gaston make a good team, we wonder what he thinks of the Detroit Lions.

The country singer told Us Weekly that his daughter and her much older boyfriend spend a lot of time together; professionally, that is. Of course.

"I'll tell you what – they are great friends, and they make a good team," Billy Ray said at last night's Los Angeles premiere of Bolt, the cartoon movie that features Miley in a key voice role. "They write a lot of songs together, and they sing – it's incredible."

Miley Cyrus and Justin Gaston: What a team!!!

What advice does Billy Ray have for his wildly popular daughter?

"Make good choices. Do the best you can do – mostly have fun.  always tell her that as long as she's having fun, then it's working."
