Miley Cyrus hasn’t met a camera she didn’t love.
April 28, 2008
Her previous pictures that she posted herself on her Myspace page are tame compared to these new ones. She’s only 15 with a fan base of mostly 5-10 year olds but here she is topless holding up what seems like a bed sheet. Her parents, who manage her, are making her into a pedophile’s dream. Her whole image is a squeaky clean, virginal, good Christian girl. Squeaky clean, virginal, good Christian girls who work for Disney don’t pose for these types of pictures.
Now her parents are backtracking. Her parents are saying that they were not on set when the picture was taken but her grandmother and teacher were. But other sources say that both parents were on set the entire day and thought the pictures are beautiful. Miley is now trying to put the blame on photographer Annie Leibovitz trying to imply that she was forced into it saying that’s what she wanted me to do and you can’t say no to Annie. But Miley was quoted as saying the pictures are really artsy and wasn’t done in a skanky way. But the fact remains that those pictures could not be released here in the United States of a minor unless the parents consent. The pictures are out. Which means the parents knew and consented to them being published.
Billy Ray Cyrus is a multi-millionaire and doesn’t need to whore out his daughter for money. But they’re greedy and want the publicity and have convinced their daughter it’s what needs to be done to succeed in Hollywood.
Here is the Vanity Fair article. And here is a slide show of other on set pictures from the photoshoot.
