Miley: Much Ado About Nothing


I bet you'll never guess what we're reading in English...

So in the olden days, people used to go skinny dipping in lakes and ponds and stuff. Then it was innocent fun. Now you give one blowjob in a hot tub and it's all sordid and shit. Okay I'm kidding (sort of). My point is that people totally blow everything out of proportion.

Seriously though, Miley Cyrus is FINE. She didn't pose naked. She didn't even really pose topless. I mean, obviously she wasn't wearing a top but still. Nobody saw nipple.

I don't understand what the big deal is. It's so obviously photoshopped anyway - I mean just look at her lips. Plus, it's not like she was posing drunk for Joe Francis. This is Vanity Fair and Annie Leibovitz for heavens sake! Hell, I'd pose topless if Annie Leibovitz asked me to.

Miley's "apology" is pathetic. “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. I never intended for any of this to happen and I apologize to my fans who I care so deeply about." If she was getting a good reaction from the public, I am sure she wouldn't be "so embarrassed." The only thing she never intended to happen was to get a bad reaction and be worried about losing her job.

I don't understand why parents don't know how to explain this to their children. Maybe they're dumb. Why did Miley pose without a shirt? Because she wanted to, and she got paid a lot of money to do it. The end. Why is that so hard to explain? Also, why are parents complaining about this because they spent $500 on Hannah Montana tickets? Now you KNOW they're dumb. My mom never would have spent that much money on a concert!

I saw an article where somebody says that now that kids have seen Miley pose topless, the kids will think it's okay to do. Maybe their kids are dumb also. How come people don't teach their kids that like ... famous people get away with doing things regular people can't do. They don't have regular consequences. Is the Brooklyn Bridge quote only used in New York? Maybe we could like rent it out to other states so people all over the country can use it.

Also, why are people freaking out about preteen girls seeing this? For all of Alex's magazine and catalog collecting, she has never once wanted Vanity Fair (and that's not just because it costs money). How many little kids are reading Vanity Fair?

People are fucking lame. This is not a big deal.

It's a big deal because big deals sell more magazines. That's all. It's pre-planned and fake embarressment. Because when the story came out and everyone heard "there's embarressing pictures of Hanna Montana" that got more people to buy Vanity Fair then would have otherwise.

It's not about the scandal, it's about profits - follow the money $$$ ;-)

I like your opinions on this.

I don't think Miley should have done it, but I don't think it's as big a deal as people are complaining about either.
