Miley Cyrus says scandalous Vanity Fair pics made her “more relatable” to her fans

June 27th, 2008 by Scott Marks

Miley Cyrus, who is like aging faster than one of Charles Shaw’s grapes, is like finally speaking out about her recent Vanity Fair photo scandal.

The fifteen-year-old star, who is like now in the third season of the Disney Channel’s ridiculously popular Hanna Montana, told Billboard Magazine, “I was embarrassed, but also it’s like, every career thing that I do can’t be perfect, and sometimes my decisions are wrong. I think that just makes me even more relatable. I don’t think people will look at me any differently because they’re like, ‘You know what, I’m going to do stupid stuff too, and I’m going to make mistakes, and that’s fine.’ It still hurts when I think about it — but you know what, it doesn’t mean that you can’t move on.”

With a new album like set to debut next month, Miley wants America to know that “more than anything — I’m a writer.” As opposed to what, a wronger?

Annie Leibovitz criticized for snapping racy Miley Cyrus photo

It’s not the fault of an underage bimbette wanting desperately to be like her celebrity role models. Nor are the young superstar’s redneck parents to blame for their daughter’s scandalous Vanity Fair photoshoot. When denial fails, blame the photographer.

Legendary celebrity shooter Annie Leibovitz has come under fire for pushing stars to go too far.

The prestigious photographer topped the headlines earlier this week when provocative shots she took of 15-year-old Miley Cyrus for Vanity Fair magazine first hit the internet.

The teenager, Leibovitz and Vanity Fair bosses have been blasted by the media and family values groups for one shot in particular, in which Cyrus poses topless, wrapped in a satin sheet.

Make that satan’s sheet!

Both Leibovitz and Cyrus have since stated the photos have been misinterpreted in the media, with the snapper calling the “beautiful” satin sheet photo “a simple, classic portrait, shot with very little makeup.”

Now stars clamoring for the spotlight are coming out to expose Leibovitz’s techniques.

Former teen icon and Mormon hasbeen Donny Osmond, who has already criticized Cyrus for posing seductively, has now taken aim at Leibovitz, recalling one of the first times he met her for a Rolling Stone magazine photoshoot.

He says, “I was about 14 or 15… It’s always, `Push it a little farther.’ She went a little too far with that picture of Miley.”

What’s the matter, Donny, did your magic Mormon underpants get a little tight when looking at Miley’s photo? And who aside from the president of NAMBLA wants to see topless photos of an underage Donny Osmond?

I suppose that Liebovitz was also the one who took control of Miley’s webcam and masterminded the scandalous “green bra” photos. If Svengali Leibovitz wields that much power, let’s see her coax an Academy Award winning performance out of young Cyrus.

Even loud-mouthed character-breaker Robin Williams had to add his two cents. Speaking on The Tonight Show on Thursday, funnyman Williams confessed, “(Leibovitz) will get you to do anything. She’ll (be) like, `Put a rogue flare in your ass, go out in that field, let’s shoot it!’ She had a picture she wanted to do with Eddie Murphy and I, where she wanted Eddie to be in white face (makeup) and me to be in black face, and I said, `Listen, there’s not a lot of mimes that are going to kick Eddie’s ass, but the painted black face may not go so well for me.’”

For a goof, someone should coat Williams with burnt cork and deposit him in Harlem.

Miley Cyrus told by Disney to skip tonight’s media party

Miley should employ the services of Manny Yarbrough to squash the mouse

And this is what Uncle Walt does to bad little girls who don’t follow his every dictum.

Miley Cyrus has been scheduled to appear at a red carpet event Friday, but according to a Disney official, don’t expect her to show.

The 15-year-old star of Hannah Montana who has turned up in all sorts of provocative photos of late has, “thrown her status as a role model for young girls into question,” a Disney spokesperson said Thursday.

Cyrus was to join dozens of other Disney Channel stars at a media party in Orlando on Friday to promote the Disney Channel Games, a charity competition.

Disney did not elaborate on why Ms. Cyrus was suddenly dis-invited.

Miley Cyrus flashes her bra in new Disney photo scandal

Remember the good old days when everyone would talk about how big Mouseketeer Annette Funicello’s boobs were without actually seeing them unsheathed? Or when Walt Disney, eager to protect his studio’s reputation, had a conniption fit after his protégé Hayley Mills expressed an interest in playing Lolita?

Were Uncle Walt alive today he’d be desperately kicking and scratching at the inside of his cryogenic chamber. Disney’s house the Mouse built is turning into a chicken ranch for young sluts. First Britney, Christina and Lindsey traded in their lollipops and sasparilla for Camel Lights and Cristal. Last year nude photos of High School Musical star Vanessa Hudgens, then 18-years-old, surfaced on line.

Now it’s squishy-faced Miley Cyrus’ turn. Publicly, the 15-year-old Hannah Montana star espouses her Christian faith and vows to remain celibate until marriage. Just like her role model Britney Spears. In an interview with Barbara Walters, the teen phenomenon said,

“For me, as I know that some people don’t have a family to fall back on like I have. And that’s when something greater comes in and that’s faith and that’s what I have. For me, that’s what keeps me strong. And I think a lot of people do have Christian families and they’re just not seeing that they’re so much greater than the materialistic things that are there right now like going out and that parties and whatever.”

Forget about Jesus. What would Uncle Walt say if he saw the recent photos of Miley flashing her bra and assuming a seductive pose with a male friend that are now flooding the internet? And what about her mullet-headed father Billy Ray Cyrus? Is he poised to achy-break the neck of the young stud putting his paws all over daddy’s little meal ticket?

She’s fifteen-years-old, for Christ’s sake! How much lower is the age for sexualizing nymphets going to drop? Can we expect views of a bare Elle Fanning or how about shots of Suri Cruise strapped to her crib with a red ball in her mouth? As for using religious faith as a shield, it only works for Republicans.
