She has two brothers!
I think its simply because Hannah Montana is on Disney Channel and parents and children think shes a good "influence" but more parents are starting to notice Miley Cyrus is kind of a slut... but children still like her..
Elkanah (1 Samuel 1:1, 2)
Elkanah's other wife was Peninnah. In the biblical narrative found in 1 Samuel, Peninnah was the mother of Elkanah's children, while his other wife, Hannah, struggled with infertility. This dynamic led to tension and rivalry between the two women, particularly as Hannah sought to have a child. Hannah eventually prayed for a son, and God granted her request, resulting in the birth of Samuel.
Peninnah, a character from the Bible, is described in the First Book of Samuel as the second wife of Elkanah. While she is noted to have borne children, the exact number is not specified in the text. The focus is primarily on her rivalry with Hannah, Elkanah's first wife, who struggled with infertility. Thus, the Bible does not provide a specific count of Peninnah's children.

Elkanah
Hanna is a wife of Elkanah mentioned in the Books of Samuel. According to the Hebrew Bible she was the mother of Samuel. The Hebrew word "Hannah" has many meanings and interpretations such as beauty or passion. In the Biblical narrative, Hannah is one of two wives of Elkanah; the other, Peninnah, bore a child to Elkanah, but Hannah remained childless. Nevertheless, Elkanah preferred Hannah. Every year Elkanah would offer a sacrifice at the Shiloh sanctuary, and give Hannah twice as big a portion of it as he would to Penninah. One day Hannah went up to the temple, and prayed silently, while Eli the High Priest was sitting on a chair near the doorpost. In her prayer she begs for a child in return for giving the child up, putting him in the service of the Shiloh priests, and raising him as a nazir. Eli thought she was drunk and questioned her, but when she explained herself he sends her away and effectively says that her prayer will be heard and her desire granted. That night she went home with her husband, they had marital relations, and she became pregnant. As promised, when the child was born, she raised him as a nazarite and put him into the service of the Shiloh priests, then she sang/prayed a song of praise for his birth - the Song of Hannah. Subsequently, when the child proved himself a good worker, Eli blesses Hannah again, and Hannah has four or five more children. (From the text it is unclear whether she had five children total, or five in addition to Samuel. See In Samuel 2:21.)
