Miley to cover Bob Dylan on tribute album

Now it's Bob Dylan 's turn to get the Miley Cyrus treatment?we just hope the legendary singer knows who Miley Cyrus is.

The "Hannah Montana" star had better brush up on her "Like a Rolling Stone" lyrics, because she's one of several famous singers who have volunteered to cover a recording of one of Dylan's songs.

Unlike her live concert performance of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit," her Dylan tune will be appear on an album, "Chimes of Freedom: Songs of Bob Dylan Honoring 50 Years of Amnesty International," with proceeds going to the human rights organization.

So who else will be belting out Dylan tunes?
