Did Lauren Alaina 'Bury' Miley Cyrus with Her Version of 'The Climb'?

 American Idol Finalist Lauren Alaina attends Fox's "American Idol" Finalist Party on March 3, 2011 in Los Angeles, California. 

American Idol celebrated movie night Wednesday and break-out singer Lauren Alaina set her sights on Miley Cyrus as she picked out her ballad "The Climb" from Hannah Montana: The Movie. And if the judges' and audience's reactions are to be believed, she might have one-upped the much more popular star.

As she was preparing to sing Miley's hit, mentor Jimmy Iovine explained to Lauren: "You have got to bury her on this song." Aggressive words from one of the most influential men in the music industry. Fortunately for Lauren, she pulled the song off flawlessly, playing to her strengths by holding out a few extra notes and singing in a clearer voice than Miley's often husky intonation.

So did Lauren actually "bury" Miley on this song? Check out both versions below and see what you think.

Cyrus says she's single

Teen superstar Miley Cyrus has laughed off reports she's fallen for her new leading man Josh Bowman, insisting her So Undercover co-star is just a "really good friend".
The singer/actress sparked rumours of a new romance after she was snapped in the arms of Amy Winehouse's ex during a day out at a Los Angeles park at the weekend.
But the 18 year old has dismissed the gossip.
She tells E! News, "I'm dating nobody! Listen, we were at the park sitting together. We're really good friends and he takes really good care of my dog."
Cyrus has been single since she split from Aussie hunk Liam Hemsworth in November, a year after meeting him on the set of their film The Last Song.

Miley Cyrus Gets Tattoo No. 5

Miley Cyrus has added another tattoo to her collection.

"It's a picture of the dream catcher that hangs over her bed with four feathers to represent her four brothers and sisters," says the friend. (Miley's siblings are Brandi, 23, Trace, 21, Braison, 16, and Noah, 11.) "The dream catcher is to protect them."
