Child stars have been around since the inception of silent films at the turn of the 20th century, giving way to television programs featuring child musical performers such as Miley Cyrus who stars in the uber-popular Disney program, Hannah Montana. Jackie Coogan performed in Vaudeville at the age of 3, and became the first child movie star while acting alongside Charlie Chapin in the 1920s. Other former child stars from that era include Mickey Rooney and Shirley Temple. These early child stars paved the way for modern day child stars by lobbying for rights of child performers.
