The way that most people, both here and on the news, are discussing the Miley Cyrus incident is infuriating me. I've read many people claim that these photos are "kiddie porn" or "truly, severely inappropriate," but I think a lot of those claims are rather ignorant.
I really doubt that they handed her a sheet, said, "Okay, take off everything. Let's make you a sexpot," and did the entire shoot with sexual symbolism in mind. I don't think it was necessarily the best idea to dress her the way they did, but every time I look at the shots, I honestly don't get an 'oogie' vibe. I thought the shots were artsy - I see where Miley was coming from - and I thought that they were what could probably be expected coming from a glamour magazine. And the pictures of her and her friends aren't evidence that she's a secret lesbian or that she's a horrible teenager; in fact, a lot of those photos look nearly identical to half of the things I see every day, on Facebook or on the teenage girls at my high school.
I think this whole incident has been blown way out of proportion. The fact that MSN articles are calling her "The Next Britney Speats" is ridiculous. Vanessa Hudgens didn't even get this much bad press, and her shots didn't even include bedsheets! Disney won't drop Miley; she is probably the single best thing that the corporation's ever gotten its hands on. She may get some reprimands, she'll probably have to apologise several more times, and she might lost some approval from distraught parents, but there's no logical way that she'll lose her job over something like this. I'm surprised it was even mentioned in the first place.
Sorry to preach, sorry to complain. I just got annoyed while reading these comments and listening to the news. Have a pleasant day!
