My oh my oh my.
We sure have ruffled some feathers here.
Everyone wants to weigh in on the racy, undead pics of Miley Cyrus on the cover of Vanity Fair.
First up, Miley herself, talking both about the VF photos and those racy shots of her that circulated last week:
In a formal statement, Miley says:
“My goal in my music and my acting is always to make people happy. For Vanity Fair, I was so honored and thrilled to work with [photographer] Annie [Leibovitz]. I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be ‘artistic’ and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed… The pictures of me on the Internet were silly, inappropriate shots. I appreciate all the support of my fans, and hope they understand that along the way I am going to make mistakes and I am not perfect. I never intended for any of this to happen and I am truly sorry if I have disappointed anyone.”
However, she’s quoted in Vanity Fair as saying the following:
“I think it’s really artsy. 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’s so cute. She gets this puppy-dog look and you’re like, ‘OK.’ Most of all. I have let myself down. I will learn from my mistakes and trust my support team. My family and my faith will guide me through my life’s journey.”
Says a Vanity Fair spokesperson:
“Miley’s parents and/or minders were on the set all day. Since the photo was taken digitally, they saw it on the shoot and everyone thought it was a beautiful and natural portrait of Miley.”
And what does the Disney Channel think about all this? Here’s their statement:
“Unfortunately, as the article suggests, a situation was created to deliberately manipulate a 15-year-old in order to sell magazines.”
I want to hear a statement from Miley’s parents! What do they think of all this?
Wait, wait, wait. Are we forgetting that just a few days ago her pictures were all over the internet showing her baring her bra. Why on earth would she be so “embarrassed” now.
“they saw it on the shoot and everyone thought it was a beautiful and natural portrait of Miley.â€
this cracks me up… beautiful and natural? yep… for a zombie…
I smell Britney 2.
I really don’t see what the big deal is. It’s not like you can see her boobs or anything. There are *way* bigger problems in the world than this. However, this is more fun to talk about.
Wow! So Annie Leibovitz ‘gets this puppy-dog look’?? Way to go, Annie, nice manipulation of an underage girl.
I’m with you jojo.
This young lady is going to keep the Beet in business for years to come.
haha exactly(frozerighthere).
also it’s like the girl from The Ring wanted to show that she can slut it up, too.
let’s pretend that you/i are in that photo shoot…15 puts her in what, ninth grade? how can miley’s parents be okay with the sexualization of their 15 YEAR OLD? i smell another papa simpson at work here- they can put her in some daisy dukes and a halter top and call it good.
I think her parents are so naive. I bet they thought the photo would look artsy and no one would care that she’s not wearing a top, when DUH, of course people are going to care! Just another stupid stage parent running their kid’s career into the ground. New managers, Miley, stat!
I just went on the VF website and viewed the video of the shoot. I agree with one of the commenters on the site, the photo and footage with her father are waaaaay creepier than this photo.
miley your picture was beautiful and i dont think it was dissrespectful you are beautiful and you inspire me and i love what you do so keep up the good work.
OMG I can see her shoulder!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ysh this is what passes is controversial. The U.S. is in the middle of a war and more prople are worried that miley cyrus did a photo shoot that shows nothig. This country has turned upside down and now the stupidest issues are our most pressing issues. we come across nude photos of celebiteys and go crazy these photos werent for us and another thing we folloe them around shotting nonstop pictures of them and are amazed to see they make slips. all you women out there looking down on them if you were to recieve the same treatment youd probably slip up at some point to so i say “MIND YOUR OWN DAMN BUSINESS!!!!!!!!!”
skanky ass whore….i bet her ass stinks
