Singer JoJo snubbed 'Hannah Montana'

R&B singer JoJo has claimed that she was offered the lead role in Hannah Montana before Miley Cyrus.

When asked about her decision to reject the Disney franchise, she told OK!: "[I have] no regrets. No regrets at all.

"Yeah, [Disney] offered me the role... [But] it's not really what I see for myself."

Cyrus landed the main part in the show, which has spawned a big screen adaptation and launched her music career.

JoJo, 17, has released three studio albums and is currently starring in Lifetime's comedy drama True Confessions Of A Hollywood Starlet.
