Miley Cyrus - Trace Cyrus Plans Band Tv Show

MILEY CYRUS' brother TRACE is planning to follow in his sister's footsteps by using a TV show to boost his music career.

Miley Cyrus, 17, shot to fame in the lead role of teen TV show Hannah Montana, in which she plays a schoolgirl-turned-secret pop star, and she subsequently launched a music career on the back of the show's success.

Now Trace Cyrus, 20, who fronts rock band Metro Station, is in talks to bring his group to the small screen in a new TV series.

His bandmate Mason Musso, whose little brother Mitchel stars alongside Miley in Hannah Montana, reveals they want the show to be a scripted reality series about the group.

He says, "Trace and I would love to get on a show together and be a band in a series. If it is done very well, it could work. We have been talking and we are looking at that so we will have to see.

"We thought it would be cool to show everyone what we do in Metro Station. People want to see the reality of being in a band and the life you live. Everything would be scripted because reality shows are kind of done. The cool part about it would be to have funny stories mixed up with what really happened. We have lots of stories from being on the road over the years. But I am no director and I will be happy to leave the storylines to the experts. There is talk and the right steps have to be made."
