Yes, Cyrus hosted Saturday Night Live on October 5-6, and the cold opening act pretty much recapped all of the controversy of the VMAs. It took place in a post-apocalyptic New York City in the year 2045, stating that though some believed it was caused by either the government shutdown or Obamacare, the real cause of the apocalypse was Cyrus' performance at the VMAs, which is widely known for its tendency to produce controversy year after year. We then flashed back to just before the VMAs, which was a time-travel story that involved Cyrus' past self during the Hannah Montana era, warning her about the potential shock it could cause. And speaking of Hannah Montana herself at her opening monologue, Cyrus stated that she was murdered. (And we all know that she died at your own hands, Miley.) Cyrus also parodied her own song, "We Can't Stop," as "We Did Stop (The Government)," referencing the government shutdown, which, as of now, has been going on for 10 days thus far.
When Cyrus stated that Hannah Montana was murdered, it should be noted that she really meant that she is no longer her. In the fictional series, Hannah Montana, aka Miley Stewart, retired in 2011 at the series finale; her last album, ironically titled Hannah Montana Forever, was released in 2010, while the series finale aired in January 2011, and in that episode, Miley Stewart decides to attend college with her best friend Lilly.
In real life, it was clear that Hannah Montana was on life support, and pretty much doomed, after Cyrus' recent antics and the release of the "We Can't Stop" single and music video, and that as of August 25, 2013, after her performance at the VMAs, if you think about it, Hannah Montana has been officially, symbolically, murdered by Miley Cyrus. She wanted to get rid of her alter ego for quite some time now; as many as four years ago, when she pole danced at the 2009 Teen Choice Awards, and then the following year, in 2010, she released Can't Be Tamed, along with its title track, people had a feeling that she was doomed. At that time, she was still fettered by Hannah Montana, but in 2013, she had no further ties with her retired alter ego. Shouldn't she realize that without Hannah Montana, she would have never been famous in the first place?
Hannah Montana was a bubbly, wholesome, teen pop idol for thousands, if not millions, of young girls, both domestically and internationally, and now, Miley Cyrus has ruined the memories of all of those young girls when she subjected them, and their parents, to what some consider a vicious slaughter of a wholesome pop idol by stripping and twerking against Robin Thicke's pelvis (not to mention that he was also dressed as Beetlejuice) at the VMAs, the perfect stage for such a performance. (She also ruined the foam finger in the process, by using it to symbolize a man's penis.)
Now, we all know that Hannah Montana isn't actually a real person, but some news sources have written articles about it as an obituary, calling it "the death of Hannah Montana." The cause of death, according to the coroner's office: a combination of neglect, shame, and twerking. Her official date of death has been confirmed as August 25, 2013. She would have been 21 on November 23 (both Hannah Montana and Miley Cyrus were born on November 23, 1992).

Others, especially fans, even including other celebrities, also treated her as a real person, mourning her death, and telling her to "rest in peace."

Some even take it a step further by creating "memorials" for her, including two designs for Hannah Montana's grave tombstone that I've discovered so far:

Mockazine: Rest In Peace, Hannah Montana.
Some of you may have hated her back then, but I hate her a hundred times more now, because at least Hannah Montana was decent and wholesome, as opposed to the trashy Miley Cyrus, who might as well be a porn star (not that she looks good as one, though).
With that, it's clear that Hannah Montana is now officially pronounced dead, having been symbolically murdered in cold blood by none other than Miley Cyrus, who stated this herself on Saturday Night Live. She didn't say who murdered her, but we all know that it was in fact you, Cyrus.
I should also note that one of Cyrus' most unlikely defenders is feminist icon Gloria Steinem, who blamed not Miley herself, but the culture that we live in.

She is very right about one thing: pop culture today relies too much on shock value, and that needs to change. However, the Miss America pageant objectifies women in a positive way; she is decent and wholesome, and is a scholarly Main Street girl next door. She has class, grace, and intelligence, and desires to do positive and productive things in life. And though Hannah Montana was a bit closer to this standard (apart from celebrity status), Miley Cyrus is very far from it."You know, I don't think so. I wish we didn't have to be nude to be noticed, but given the game as it exists, women make decisions. For instance, the Miss America contest is in all of its states, forms… the single greatest source of scholarship money for women in the United States. If a contest based only on appearance was the single greatest source of scholarship money for men, we would be saying, 'This is why China wins.' You know? It's ridiculous. But that's the way the culture is. I think that we need to change the culture, not blame the people that are playing the only game that exists."
