...five years. True, she isn't close to her best times, but neither is anyone else. As the world's most famous woman swimmer, she has cashed in. After spurning commercial offers in order to maintain eligibility while she swam at Stanford, Evans now endorses Speedo swimsuits, Fuji film, Ray-Ban sunglasses and other products...

But when this rockabilly baritone swivels out of his shirt while performing his sing-along smash, Achy Breaky Heart, the ladies wilt. In three months Cyrus, 30, has rocketed from nowhere (or the nearest thing: Flatwoods, Ky.) to No. 1 on the pop charts. Is this Elvis? Bruce? Actually, neither. Aside from Achy Breaky, Cyrus has only one memorable song -- the sour-grapes rouser Could've Been...
