In a caption released by Vanity Fair with the photo last week, Cyrus expressed her comfort with how the apparently topless picture turned out.

"I think it's really artsy," she told the magazine at the time. "It wasn't in a skanky way. Annie took, like, a beautiful shot, and I thought that was really cool. That's what she wanted me to do, and you can't say no to Annie."

she was fully aware of what the photos looked like before the issue ever hit shelves. she and her father playing the innocent, exploited card now is just a pathetic attempt at damage control.

but, whatever. her career will be fine. vanessa hudgen's career was only mildly scathed by a much raunchier photo set. to you drama queens on the board believing everything for her is coming to an abrupt end, it's time you got used to the idea that our current generation of youth has a very high tolerance for young starlets and their 'mistakes'.


Side note: Most of us expressing feigned distaste for celeb scandals and others who've fallen from grace are the ones still clicking on the upskirts, stolen photo links, and home videos with the most ardent fervor. We're the hypocrites that get the tabloids and paparazzi paid. Maybe a little self-reflection is in order before the witch-hunt?

Our society craves lurid photographs of underage women. It seems to have an intoxicating effect on those who are the most repressed.

On a side note- I noticed that the show Dancing with the Stars is now featuring children dancing seductive dances meant for adults. It's only a matter of time before the contestants will appear in JonBenet Ramsey style outfits. That should draw big ratings.

who the fuck cares about whether this is proper or improper. she had her fucking parents consent to this (she must have) since wasn't 18 yet. she wants to bitch about these pictures when other racy pictures of her have already leaked on the net. if you're morally opposed to the pictures, don't fucking buy the magazine or look at the pictures. i think it is extremely distasteful to have your 15 year old daughter post semi-nude for a magazine and therefore i will not view these pictures (i never would've bought the magazine anyways).

bottom line that gets me pissed off is that she's likely come to the realization that her image is everything and she doesn't portray a wholesome disney image with these pictures - so "oops!" i have to do damage control and this is the best i could do. fucking stupid moron. she gets what she deserves out of this crap.

Well Emma Watson (Hermione) is recently 18 and they just caught her getting out of a car in a skirt with the usual view of what you would see when you kneel down in front of a woman and look up her skirt. No invisibility cloak for her now.

I still don't think a 15 year old, no matter how popular, should be on the cover or in a national magazine like this

18 and up please

if that giant opaque sail she's got is covering her on the magazine cover then what the hell is the problem?

This neo-Puritanism is a mental disease. The human body is something we all have and things like nipples are life-giving, not evil.

i agree with the nudity thing but not with kids. she is 15, not 22 and a pose like that for a kid her age is just not right.
Except she's not nude, not even close to being nude. If it's on anybody it's on her parents for giving consent for these mild pics to be taken and published.

QFT. Those pictures are way creepier than a 15 year old wearing a sheet.

:music:
The next time I freak out, I just kept lookin' down
I st-st-studder when you ask me what I'm thinkin' 'bout.
Feels like I couldn't breathe
You ask what's wrong with me
My best friend Leslie said, "Oh she's just being Miley"
The next time we hang out
I will redeem myself
My heartache can't rest 'till then
O--oh o oh u I, I can't wait, to see you again
:music:

This is a million times worse than those pictures could ever be.

I was expecting something raunchy from all the fuss. Nothing particularly revealing about those photos.

I find the whole cult of personality and all of the music/movie/TV/sports figure worship that most of this country does far more disturbing than those photos. I don't allow my daughter to watch any of that regurgitated child-gone-superstar Disney channel shit.

Whats wrong with it is the way they edited it in post to make her look seductive - if they left it the way they shot it I think its just an artsy fun sort of shot for a teenage girl to do - when you actually go in and spend the time airbrushing her lips/curves/etc its just sick and disturbing in my opinion.

Those are pretty tame, but still has me going "wtf?". Moreso at the magazine than Miley. Maybe the parents are just stupid for giving consent, the kid's acting like your regular 15 year old, but the magazine has no issue print this... Then again, why should they? Sales will go up 500% now.

The photographer was Annie Leibovitz. One of the most famous photographers on the planet and certainly not someone know to take smut.

When Larry Flint starts offering to pay for photos of then we should be worried.

Yep. I dont see a problem with the pics. What I *DO* have a problem with is the youtube video of the shoot, WITH her father. It is fucking CREEEEPY. Look for yourself.

Yeah, right. It's such a big deal.:confused:

Kids should be be banned from looking at their own naked bodies when they're underage because it's a big deal!!
