Miley Cyrus Nude Photos Topless Photos Scandal. Blame Cyrus, Parents, Disney or Myspace?
April 28th, 2008 by KarenOops…Disney did it again.
The company that introduced the world to squeaky clean Mousketeers-turned-skanky pop disasters Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears can add Miley Cyrus to its list of good girls gone bad.
Miley Cyrus, the 15-year-old star of the absurdly popular Hannah Montana franchise, became a star by playing the role of an innocent young school girl leading a secret double live as a music star. But her real life isn’t so G-rated.
While Hannah Montana’s kid-friendly image and music (Hannah Montana Mp3 music downloads here) is a hit with kids, Cyrus’s recent string of racy photos (including ones where she reveals her green bra and pulls up her shirt for a guy) is causing an uproar among parents. Some sources claim it’s not Cyrus, but a look-alike. Uh-huh.
It’s perfectly understandable that parents of tiny Montana fans are concerned that their kids will try to imitate the rebellious star, the more important question is: Why aren’t Cyrus’s own parents concerned about her behavior? Maybe the publicity (and cash) she generates makes them reluctant to discipline her.
Of course, Cyrus is a teenager, and in this age of MySpace and Facebook, it’s not unusual for young girls to post inappropriate photos of themselves online. In fact, it may not be that Cyrus is setting a bad example for her peers—it may be that she’s following the bad example that has been set by “friends” on these social networking websites.
Posting racy photos online is serious, but somewhat excusable as a teenage mistake.
However, what isn’t excusable is when Cyrus’s parents pimped her out for a naughty photo shoot with a magazine.
Cyrus is currently apologizing for the photo shoot she did for Vanity Fair magazine with renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz. Cyrus says she’s “embarrassed” over the way the partially nude photos turned out. See the photo here and judge for yourself.
Well how did she (and her parents) think they would turn out? When you agree to pose topless wrapped in a satin sheet for a photo shoot, it’s going to result in topless photos! Cyrus isn’t sorry about the photos, she’s sorry about the backlash she’s going to have to endure.
Or maybe she isn’t.
Maybe she’s perfectly happy with the racy photos, the “bad girl” image controversy and the tons of free publicity she’s about to be given. The Hannah Montana money-making machine has proven its savvy in the past—remember the controversy over the 3-D concert movie that was in theaters for “one weekend only” that sold out and caused such demand that it stayed in theaters for an extended run?
Disney has been churning out garbage entertainment for several decades, but the company has always been excellent at salesmanship and marketing. The new Hannah Montana controversy is probably just the latest chapter—after all, a new Hannah Montana movie is set to hit theaters May of next year, and everybody loves free publicity.

Miley is not too wild for kids, if you read the article that accompanies the photo shoot in vanity fair you will see a little of how she really is, not how all these trash talking wanna be journalists want her to be. I do think the “sheet” photo was inappropriate for a girl her age. I believe that she and her parents were swept up in the prestige of the famous photographer and Magazine. I think that she has made it clear that they are not meant as how people are misconceiving them. Give the girl a berak mistakes happen.

I really honestly was almost obssesed with Hannah montana when I was 10 or 11 but when I turned 12 I saw on magazines and tabloids that her hair coler her clothing style has changed and she used to be a total sweetheart but now I think that shes rebelling,and good lord! Shes only 15 I think that maybe she saw that When Vanessa Hudgens rebelled she got a bad influence and maybe. I honestly think that her parents are greedy and just want money or something like that but I blame it on them.You know Maybe her friends don’t have much to do with it.But seriously who signs up their kid for that kind of photoshoot thats very irresponsible.

A lot of people will jump to a bad conclusion about anyone famous when I heard about the so called “nude” photo it was only a photo of her holding a sheet.Oh my god kids and parents overreacted a little to much if you see past photos they are all out of their comfort zone of photography look what they did to Whoopi Goldberg I never heard of anyone causing a riot.well I shall end this with a bye take a breath one photo is not going to let anyone down it’s not playboy and what will stop her from that her circle of family and friends
