Miley Cyrus poses topless for Vanity Fair--AT AGE 15!!

**ingi** · April 27th, 2008, 08:39 PM

A source told People that Miley's parents left before that shot was taken. Her grandmother and her teacher were on set, "Miley's grandmother and her teacher were there when she shot it. Annie convinced them it was going to be artistic. Her parents are mortified. They know this is a learning moment for Miley. The photo suggests that she is [naked], but she is not. She is covered by a sheet, and beneath the sheet she is clothed. Originally, she was in a flesh-colored tank top but was asked to remove it."

That does NOT make this OK. Miley herself has publicly asked the older men who come to her shows to not come, yet she turns around and poses nude on a national magazine cover? Way to keep the pervs away!

I still stand behind the fact that the photographer should've known better, but she didn't have to agree to do it. She did (enthusiastically I'm sure) and now she has to suffer the wrath. A stupid mistake on her part, and to act like it's ok says that it's ok for any 15 year old girl to get naked and wrap themselves up on a towel and take pictures. Something tells me if it was your daughter, it wouldn't be ok.

Yes, but as she is not my daughter I don't have all that much personal feeling regarding her breasts.

If she chooses to do this it's her choice. I believe all people have the right to make their own choices, and as she isn't hurting anyone I don't have a problem with it.

This is Hollywood, it's a meat market and a business. And look how much controversy and publicity this will stir up. It's the way that game is played. Keep getting those headlines.

I have no idea if she's a slut or not, it's just annoying seeing her everywhere. She either hasn't figured that out yet (leave them wanting more) or is just too in love with the attention she's getting to care. But if she wants it to continue at this ridiculous pace she'll be forced to start slutting it up in a more hardcore way and it'll be somewhat interesting to see how far it goes at her age. Traci Lords managed to get into porn by the same age. But I think that was only because people didn't know she was as young as she was (someone correct me if I'm wrong).

You can get headlines in other ways, without taking your clothes off. She hasn't seemed to have an issue making billions of dollars and selling out concerts. This isn't someone who's a washed up has been. This is someone that girls half her age are looking up to, she should be acting like a 15 year old, not a tramp. If this was even two years later, it'd be forgiveable, but 15? Come on.

It's not so much the pictures that I find disgusting, she's obviously showing off more in her personal MySpace photos, but it's the sexualization of this young girl that's disgusting. If the police went into the house of man who had pictures like this up all over the place, and was taking pictures of children in sheets that wouldn't be ok, so why is this acceptable?

"Unfortunately, as the article suggests, a situation was created to deliberately manipulate a 15-year-old in order to sell magazines."

You know, I do blame the parents for this debacle, but does anyone else remember a couple of years ago Vanity Fair announced they would not let anyone on the cover unless they had some "bombshell" or something to reveal? Right after that Hillary Swank trashed her husband, and Teri Hatcher revealed she'd been molested. This magazine forces people to "strip" so to speak in order to get onto it's pages. This doesn't excuse Miley's parents from their responsibility, but I can certainly believe she was manipulated by VF. Maybe they promised her the cover if she did this? The stupid celebs could stop this nonsense by boycotting VF.

Her marketing team really knows how to keep her names in the headlines. At least her breasts are covered, even if it is only a sheet. Imo, whether or not she wanted to do this shoot, she shouldn't have been allowed to, because she's being exploited sexually. Her parents should be protecting her, instead of turning her into a cash cow.

**Pippin69** · April 27th, 2008, 08:54 PM

I know she's basically covered, but how did Vanity Fair or the photographer get away with publishing it? Technically it IS kiddie porn. FV isn't some stupid blog, don't they have to abide by some laws as a legit magazine?

They're saying she's embarassed by the article too. I'm curious to know what that says.

Come on folks, don't be so upset, this is rather normal behavior for 15 year old girls, why, I bet every girl that age does things like that! (sarcasm).

**NicoleWasHere** · April 27th, 2008, 09:35 PM

Wether anyone thinks it's a big deal or isn't, it's still child pornography, in my eyes. It isn't tasteful, it's disgusting. She's basically telling all of the little girls who look up to her, that it's okay to pose the way that she does, and it isn't. :\

I also don't believe she was manipulated by anyone, she probably jumped at the opportunity the minute she heard it.

**Folieadeux** · April 27th, 2008, 09:36 PM

Annie Leibovitz should be ashamed of herself for even taking these photographs.

Mileys parents should have had the good sense to step in when their daughter took off her bra and started to hold a sheet to her chest. Trish, I believe, is no better than a 15 year old peer when it comes to 'parenting' Miley. As long as Trish gets in a few paparazzi photographs looking like a haggard 18 year old, I'm sure she is content.

And Miley should stop being such a little skank and use her brain for once. After the last three leaked Myspace photos of her, did she really think this would go down any better?

Ugly girl

**MrsMarsters** · April 27th, 2008, 09:39 PM

She has two of the stupidest damn parents.

**wheelbarrow** · April 27th, 2008, 10:00 PM

I completely agree with you o0Amber0o!
