Miley Cyrus Topless In Vanity Fair................

Sweet 16

^^8^^
It doesn't bother me so much that she did it. What bothers me is that she is now blaming everyone and their brother for "manipulating" her into doing it. Her parents and her "minders" were supposedly there during the shoot and must have seen the finished photos before they were published. And NOW they're upset about it? Gimme a break!

While I think that that shoot is pushing things a bit, I have seen less on girls younger at the beach. I don't know what some parents are thinking and then you wonder why they get snatched up.

Oh, good grief. I looked at the picture and all I can say is it is not the most flattering picture of Miley but far from pornographic. Topless? All I see is a lot of her back exposed and no hint of her frontside. Geez, turn on MTV or any of the other 'tween hangouts and you'll see a LOT more than that. :rolleyes:

If this and gay/straight high school clubs are what people are worrying about these days, please send me away to another planet.

You people have convinced me. If we can see a lot more than that in a couple of movies made a few years ago, then that makes it allright.

You are right of course Traci Lords made some movies that were very risque' at 15 Traci Lords Biography so of course that makes this simple showing of a nude back practically nothing.

This is the problem with celebrity worship: people mistake a character with the actual person. Hannah Montana was created in a studio - she's not real. Miley Cyrus is the real person.

Actually her real self's name is Destiny and her name Miley comes from her nick name Smiley:biggrin:

If that picture was my 15 year old daughter, I'd be more worried about getting her an appointment with a counselor regarding her anorexia. Kids show more than that in bikini's at the beach.

That photograph was actually not on the cover, Mr. Hysteria. It was buried in the back pages. But that is neither here nor there, my daughter has zero interest in being in the public eye, so no I wouldn't put her on the cover of a magazine, or in any magazine.

Perhaps I am coming off as a little hysterical. In reality I’m not all that surprised by it. It doesn’t much matter to me where it was in the mag anyway. And I didn’t ask you what your daughter was interested in; I wanted to know if this were something you would have done with your own daughter. But, you half answered that.

If you feel that Miley is a skanky whore that is a bad influence on your children, you have the option to prevent anything Miley. No one is stoppiing you from exercising that option as a parent.

I never said Miley was a skanky whore. Now you’re being hysterical. I was hoping Miley would be the antithesis of the typical Hollywood variety, but it’s not looking good. If Miley didn’t feel she portrayed a problematic message to her fans with this then why did she feel a need to apologize for it?

All of you freaked out by her picture did any of you see the rest of them? You know like the one of her in jeans and a tank top with her dad?


Maybe you should take a look...

Because people are over-reacting and freaking out. Her handlers (and probably Disney) told her to apologize, so she did.

You're invalidating peoples' feelings about this while deeming yours as correct. Perhaps you're under-reacting.

Wearing a tank top? :jameo:

You know that's unacceptable. These teenage stars are supposed to wear sweatshirts everywhere they go. You should know this by now. :eyebrow:

I'm under-reacting because I don't care some Disney created character showed her bare shoulders in a photo. If you say so. :rolleyes:

Are you saying I should freak out every time some Hollywood starlet is less than angelic?

Oh, no! She went outside without her burka! A male not her husband saw her face! :jameo:

I have a problem with her half nude pics being in on the front of a magazine that will most likely be at the cash register of Wal*Fart or a grocery store for kids to see while you are waiting in line for 20 minutes. My niece idolizes this little girl. She's 7.

My daughter is 8 and this point bothers me also. Personally I just haven't talked about it around her, if it's on the news I change the channel, move the magazine, whatever. If she asks or sees it then we'll address it.

I think this is being blown way out of proportion, you have a 16yr old that is trying to make it in a grown up world on the verge or being a grown up herself. It's bound to happen. I think she's sincere when she says she's sorry. There are many things I am not proud of in my past and to be perfectly honest some are worse than these photos. To me this is the upscale version of a 16yr old getting glam shots at the mall. I'm sure she was made to feel it was the right decision. Shame on Vanity Fair for using the shots just to get their sales.

As for what I tell my daughter, it will probably be something along the lines of people make mistakes and I bet she wishes she didn't do that. It's not appropriate ever to do that. Followed by, "what do you think her parent's said?" just to see her line of thinking.
