This is just wrong in so many ways. Fifteen equals child. Her pose is provocative and clearly meant for sexual content. This is no less than child porn, just as it was when Brooke Shields posed as a child prostitute in Pretty Baby, when she was twelve, (although Miss Shields was portraying a fictional roll, Miss Cyrus is unambiguously suggesting sex.
Oh and btw Rob..

Miley Cyrus, and every 7 - 15 year old girl’s hero (including my own)

including your own?  A grown man having a fifteen year old hero is not a healthy thing… is it?

Why is this not child pornography?  Shouldn’t everyone who sees this online be prosecuted for having such on their computers, or is it:  “if a liberal or liberal magazine OKs it, it is OK?  (just art)?

Chief,

While I don’t know if this fits into the area of child porn (from the look of it, it just might) I do certainly know that it is at least in very poor taste.

Who decided to photo a 15 yerar old in this way?

If you were to do it as a private individual there is a good possibility that you’d go to jail. Your defens of “But it’s ART” probably wouldn’t fly.

The New York Times published the picture.  I provided it here to illustrate the story.  Certainly, if we are to criticize those who took this picture we should at least be fair and show the picture they took.

The purpose of government shouldn’t be to do good, but simply to refrain from doing evil.

Did you actually read the Vanity Fair article?  It is literally seething with sexual inuendo.  They point out that Miley’s favorite TV shows is SEEEEEX in the City.  Miley likes it not because of the sex, but because of the honest interpersonal relationships between friends.

There seems to be a concerted effort to turn Miley in Britney Spears, Part Deux.  I find it sickening.  To me, she seems to be a sweet, talented girl.

No wonder these liberal rags are losing readership hand over fist.

P.S.,

She is less exposed there than she would be in a bikini by the pool any given Saturday.

People need to get over themselves.

Did y’all checkout the VF article, and accompanying pics? Her parents were there, and she AND they approved the pics. Everything being digital, they got to see them on the shoot location.

Here you go. Make of it what you will.

First, she is hot as hell.  Now the clock starts ticking to her turning 18.  =)

Second, probably a third of 15 year olds in the US are sexually active.  It is a shame.  Apparently the article does not explicitly say she is sexually active, but it does portray a “virginal Disney star” in a light that takes away her almost wholesome quality.

But let’s be real here—she is a 15 year old that has a big girl career.  While it is true that lots of people look up to her and that she is a star for Disney, she is clearly trying to transition from child star to adult star which did not seem to work for the Olson twins and countless other actresses that played children and were not able to parlay that success into a long term career.  She is trying to keep from being pigeon holed into virginal child roles.

Does the controversy help or hurt her own career?  One can assume that it hurts Disney, but I think that her handlers, agents, the Disney folks, and others did this as a calculated move (since nothing is ever unscripted and since her agents and parents as well as Disney had to sign off on it to do it).

THIS IS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO CHILD PORN.  This is no worse than a bikini.  It is a naked back.  Provocative, yes.  Pornographic, no.  In good taste, probably not.  Arousing to dirty old men, I am going to say yes.  Career enhancing, the jury is out.

“Bonfire anyone?” wrote Lin Burress on her marriage and parenting blog, Telling It Like It Is, referring to the mountain of Hannah Montana retail items — makeup, shoes, clothes — in the marketplace. “Parents should be extremely concerned,” Ms. Burress said in an interview. “Very young girls look up to Miley Cyrus as a role model.”

Burn em.  Burn the books too.  This is what we have come to expect from the fundamentalists anyway.  That is who she is talking to.

The real question is: How do you grow up in public, both as a person and as a commodity? For every Jodie Foster or Brooke Shields there are a dozen Gary Colemans. Michael Jackson’s face speaks volumes. So did Judy Garland’s medicine cabinet. In Cyrus’s case, there has been a concerted effort, on the commodity side, to slowly draw her out from under Hannah’s shadow. A full Miley album will be released this summer and a Hannah Montana feature film, to be shot in Nashville, will mostly focus on “the Miley side of life,” as she puts it. And though the pose was Annie Leibovitz’s idea, the topless but demure portrait accompanying this article could be seen as another baby step, as it were, toward a more mature profile. “I think it’s really artsy,” Cyrus says. “It wasn’t in a skanky way.… And you can’t say no to Annie. She’s so cute. She gets this puppy-dog look and you’re like, O.K.”

Seriously folks, read the article.  It is a very good read and it actually makes her sound like an intelligent, classy, well adjusted 15 year old.

Only time will tell what is to become of her.

Hannitized,

Burn em.  Burn the books too.  This is what we have come to expect from the fundamentalists anyway.  That is who she is talking to.

I can’t speak for the author of that parenting blog, but in general I hardly think that being opposed to sexualizing a 15-year-old girl is equivalent to wanting books burned.

Not that anyone has ever accused you of having reason or common sense.

P.S.,

She is less exposed there than she would be in a bikini by the pool any given Saturday.

People need to get over themselves.

But it’s not simply a matter of the amount of exposed skin.  It’s a matter of how the girl is presented.  The picture above, along with the accompanying article, are highly sexual in nature.

That’s the problem.

The purpose of government shouldn’t be to do good, but simply to refrain from doing evil.

..but in general I hardly think that being opposed to sexualizing a 15-year-old girl is equivalent to wanting books burned.

And this is why I wonder about people from North Dakota.  When did I say they were equivalent?  I said burn the books…..“too”.  That means in addition to burning everything Hanna Montana related.

Rob, can I ask you what is the equivalence between a Hanna Montana Makeup, shoes and the sexualizing of a 15yr old?  So why burn them?  If you are going to burn all the “stuff”...why not burn the books too?

Reason and you go along like vinegar and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

I can’t speak for the author of that parenting blog,

Why not?  You speak for Wright and Obama when you misquote them on purpose by changing the words they used.  Why stop now?

Not that anyone has ever accused you of having reason or common sense.

Rob didn’t say to burn anything. Your friends lame assed parenting blog calls for people to burn stuff. Perhaps you should ask your friend why she wants to burn other people’s property. What’cha say, racebaitingpovertypimp?

Chief RZ has it right. Charges should be filed for child pornograpy. But, as it is said, probably a liberal owned mag and double standards apply in this case.

This is a little girl.  I heard that Billy Ray was in the room.

His butt needs kicking.

Me too.

I’m a dad, and Hannah Montana is my daughter’s idol, so maybe this is just hitting a little too close to home for me.  But I see that picture and it hits a nerve.

I’m tired of these young girls being pushed to become “sexy.”  Ever tried shopping for a little girl?  I’m a single dad, and I go to the store and even for my 7-year-old it’s hard to find something that’s not hip-huggers and bare midriffs.

The purpose of government shouldn’t be to do good, but simply to refrain from doing evil.

I know Rob, I’m 100% with you. Shopping for your daughter must be nearly impossible on at least a moral level.

I don’t agree of the focus of sex and sex appeal in a large faction of American culture.  It trickles down to every franchise store, imposing values on us that a person like you, and me, doesn’t want.

Hiphuggers for my 7 year old? No thanks.  Clothes focus more on the body, more on superficiality and skin-deep beauty than anything that is substantiative and wholesome.

The sexual temptation has overcome on us on a national level—not enough people are indignant about this.  Why?

It would be “gay” to enjoy a women who does not flaunt her body is a mantra that parallels with the principles of Main stream hip hop homophobes.

Rob - I’m a single dad…

That just slipped right out of your mouth, didn’t it?

I am truly disappointed that Miley Cyrus has chosen to join the “in” crowd in her pursuit of stardom. I was hoping that Billy Ray and his wife would show her a different path. I am really sick of all these young women being pushed into sexually provocative situations. This is obscenely wrong. I sorta figured that something like this might happen when scalpers were selling tickets at Miley’s concerts for $300-$1000 a piece. I felt that this was a time when Miley and her family could take a stand against exploitation and be a real role model for young women.
Miley could have refused to play only if the prices remained as originally set. Parents could have practiced their right to be frugal, and give their children a good lesson in economics, by refusing to pay the exorbitant prices for the tickets. But, if they did, the children would have surely suffered a traumatic episode of deprivation which would scar them for life. To Miley Cyrus, I say that you can have a long a fruitful career. Don’t be pushed into the spotlight now, where you will crash and burn like Britney and others. Be a good girl. Do what you know is right. God bless.

...Hannah Montana is my daughter’s idol, so maybe this is just hitting a little too close to home for me.  But I see that picture and it hits a nerve.

Agree.  I am a dad of a 3 year old and it does hit a nerve.

But it hits the same nerve that my friends hit every single time that they go to a strip club and fund some 18 year old’s drug habit.  It hits the same nerve that it hits when people purchase porn.  It hits the same nerve that the local pot or meth dealer hits.

It is about having little girls and seeing them sold down the road of immorality. But again, this is simply a picture in Vanity Fair.  This is not the meth-head selling my daughter her high on the weekend.  This is not the strip club enticing her with lures of quick money.  This is not the porn industry trying to get her to become a “model-actress” and run away from home.  Save your indignation for things that rightly deserve it or at very least for things that are really bad, not just mildly provocative.

We have to make sure that we are not screaming child pornography about a 15 year old doing a photo shoot when in reality there is actual child pornography going on all over.  There are folks on the internet and Myspace going after teenage girls.  There are pimps getting them to turn tricks.  Outrage should be proportional to what she did, not who she is.  I am betting that if you check any 17 year old kid’s cell phone, they will have pictures that are far more provocative of their girlfriend or one of their friends than this.

THIS IS KIDDIE PORN HOW FREAKIN DISGUSTING

Why do I think that if any one of us had taken that picture of 15 year old Hanna Montana, we would be facing charges tonight?

“Here lies, in honored glory, an American soldier, known but to God.”

Liberals claim to want to give a hearing to other views, but then are shocked and offended to discover that there are other vews.

So every single teen mag is kiddie porn? Do you people actually know what pornography is? Did you actually look at all these pics from VF? Her back is bare. How is that porn? Are Sears, JCPennys, and Walmart using kiddie porn in their spring sales circulars with swimwear in them? Do any of you watch child oriented TV?

I think one of the major differences between pornography and art photos is whether the model is looking at the camera.

homosapiens: Thanks for the laugh.

This is absolutely in bad taste.  It is not what she has on or doesn’t have on.  It is the make-up and the provactive way they have posed her.  She looks like a tramp.  Much like Britney Spears….just trashy.  All that talk that her Dad put out is just bunk…..Our kids don’t need someone talking out of both sides of their mouth…....

how do you know? have you ever lived in a communist country? i know i did.Russia. they give you free education. theres nothing wrong with that. they give you free health insurance. You cant be rich, but in order to live good, u dont have to be!

eva, right, THEY give you stuff which you better take if you know what’s good for you.  What communism doesn’t give you is the freedom to choose.

How do we know communism is bad?  Ask the people in the Ukraine, any of the Baltic nations and any of the middle Eurpean nations how they feel about being free from Soviet domination.

One of the most important talents for success in politics is the ability to make utter nonsense sound not only plausible but inspiring. Barack Obama has that talent. We will be lucky if we escape the catastrophes into which other countries have been led by leaders with that same charismatic talent.
