For Chrissakes. Miley Cyrus opened her stupid mouth to TV Guide and gave a gold mine of an interview.
Let’s address this bit of self-righteous drivel point by point, shall we?
Move over, Carrie Bradshaw.
“I’d love to do a younger, cleaner version of Sex and the City,” Miley Cyrus, 15, tells TV Guide.
So basically, nothing at all like Sex and the City?
Still, she says she won’t be having sex anytime soon.
“I like to think of myself as the girl that no one can get, that no one can keep in their hand,” Cyrus goes on.
Those are the delusions talking, sweetie. Before she tries to make this point, she may want to consider bothering to deny the authenticity of those photos she took for Nick Jonas. Unless, you know, she can’t. And speaking of:
Like her pals the Jonas Brothers, Cyrus wears a purity ring.
“Even at my age, a lot of girls are starting to fall,” she says, “and I think if [abstaining] is a commitment girls make, that’s great.”
Those poor, fallen other girls! She wouldn’t know anything about that.
As for her controversial Vanity Fair cover, she says, “I don’t dwell on the negativity.
“I want to be a positive role model,” she adds.
No, she wants a lot of attention. There is a difference.
She says she feels “empowered” when she sees her face on a T-shirt.
“A girl wouldn’t be wearing a shirt with me on it just because she liked my show,” Cyrus says. “She must look up to me.”
And heaven help that girl’s parents.
She says she doesn’t know if she could survive the business without “a God that blesses me with the ability to do this.”
To do what now? To scale the ranks of our Top Ten Deceivers list?
She says her latest single “Seven Things” stands for the seven things she cannot live without: “The Bible”; “my mommy!”; “my Yorkie Roadie and my lovebird Zazu”; “grilled cheese”; “music and my beautiful Gibson guitar”; “my black Chuck Taylor Converse sneakers”; “my Sidekick.”
Now for the real list: her digital camera’s self-timer setting, showering in tee-shirts, hair extensions, inappropriately older guys, her parents’ amazing permissiveness, her first billion dollars, and her incredibly marketable schtick that Disney bought hook, line, and sinker.
Interesting info Holly.
There, she said it: “I want to be a positive role model.” Everything that she does can be judged fairly, according to, and within the framework of that statement. :-p
“I’d love to do a younger, cleaner version of Sex and the City,”
Awesome. Something else with the words Sex and the City in the title that I can completely ignore.
I am so glad that I pay the extra money for the History, Science, and Discovery channels. I frankly don’t understand why anyone would want to watch such dribble.
That being said, the fact that TV Guide is enamored so much with a 15 year old talking about sexuality that they write about it takes that publication to the same level of ineptness as PETA.
We’ll all enjoy the day that she totally fu_ks up and Disney loses credability to the point it hurts their bottom line. I hope I’m here to witness that event.
And my next prediction: She’s pregnant by the time she is 17.
Who does she think she’s kidding?
Disney will do what they always have done, replace her with another disposable teen icon and continue to rake in the money. After all the average memory of the demographic they are targeting only keeps themselves focused for 2 years, after that it gets passed on to the other kids stepping up to fill the role of consumer fodder.
I totally agrre. She’s so full of bull.
Again, PURITY RINGS MEAN NOTHING! Miley probably has had sex already, andis just doing the same thing Britney did. Disney is screwed no matter how you look at it.
it really is time that she be on the top ten deceivers list, deceiver.com. looking for who should get bumped off first? between al gore and miley cyrus, there’s no contest.
Uh, i love her show, and i wear the t shirt because i love the show;. I dont look up to her in any way! shes kinda trampy and fake.
Miley wears a purity ring to symbolize the pure b.s. she drivels and snivels.
I guess with Miley Cyrus in hot water this week (literally), it’s time for the JoBros to feel the heat. I wondered if you’d seen wingnut pundit Martin Eisenstadt accusing Disney’s Jonas Brothers of pushing the terrorist lifestyle by wearing keffiyeh scarves ….yes! like Rachael Ray! I saw the link here: http://shawarmamayor.blogspot.com/2008/07/keffiyeh-pushed-through-our-kids-throat.html
Except for Doctor Who guys shouldn’t wear scarves. I didn’t think those guys could look any gayer. I was wrong.
There are a few different kinds of virgins in the entertainment industry.
Among them are liars and publicity virgins, the ones who pretend to be virgins, or the ones who are motivated by their reputation to remain so. I think Miley Cyrus is a prime example of an alleged virgin for publicity.
I can’t tell for which sort of publicity she’s aiming for since she’s a squeaky clean Christian tween actress by day, and half-naked envelope pusher by night, so it’s hard to say whether she’s trying to set a good example for young girls or trying to make men think about all the sex she isn’t having.
I don’t disagree with her that you should wait to have sex with someone worth it, but it doesn’t even take being a virgin to think that. I’m sure tons of people have had sex and regretted it, and overall agree with Miley Cyrus. It’s the delivery, the excessively preachy, holier than thou attitude about this abstinence issue she’s so vocal about while in the next breath taking skanky photos of herself and plastering them on the internet that make her an easy target…and before anyone says ANYTHING, they are skanky photos. Sometimes body language connotates more about a photo than what they’re wearing.
Most of the entertainment business’ most vocal virgins like taking their clothes off while pretending they don’t like being portrayed in that light.
I am going to play devil’s advocate here and ask where is the proof she is not a virgin? Some guy that hacked her e-mail, sold (or Photoshopped and sold) pictures is not the most upstanding source. He says she talked in e-mail about having sex with one of those brothers, but he didn’t keep the e-mails? Maybe he’s a big fat liar!
But you know, once again I will say “when I was 15″…. I don’t know anyone who was allowed to have a boy in their bedroom for any reason!! (see next to last link in article) at least not if their parents were home. AND most parents would not let 15 year-olds go out with anyone just 2 or 3 years older, much less in their 20’s. So yeah, from my experience as a teenage girl, long ago though it may be, she is definitely suspicious for being skankalicious.
Celibacy and the City?? Who wants to shell out 10 bucks for that!
Now sit back and watch the trolls roll in, Google Miley = Teen Troll Flood. When is some actor going to try to salvage teen literacy??
Well, I do think it’s possible to do a younger, cleaner version of Sex and the City. After all, Spielberg made a darker, less funny version of Hogan’s Heroes.
Hey llama I knew a lot of girls that were allowed to have boys in their bedroom when they were 15. Why do you think I went over there? And I’m sorry but a lot of people talk like they were never 15. I mean be real. I was a virgin until I was 16. And I was “late”. And this was 25 years ago. Guess how old my girlfriend was. 15.
A lot of kids come into our business, I hear them talk, and it’s like stepping into a time machine. You’d be surprised. High school is exactly as you remember it. Virtually nothing has changed from my high school years in the 80’s. I know I was surprised. It’s the same conversations, the same parties, on and on. Some of these are literally the kids of parents I got high with (yes and I feel really old) at that one party spot in the woods, and they now deny that THEIR kids don’t even know what a bong is! The denial is amazing. I think to myself… “Is this the same girl that was passed out drunk in Chuck D’s basement that Saturday after homecoming?”
Now I have no idea how old anyone is around here. Maybe the passage of time fogs people’s memories. And believe me if cameras were on every phone available then there would be plenty of pictures. I’m just glad there weren’t.
I’ve mentioned in other posts that I was no angel at 15. And I wasn’t. I went through my university years perpetually high, and even though I was never slutty, again, I was no angel. I had a boyfriend and we weren’t playing Parchessi. The point, however, is that I, as well as many people who are 15 or were once 15, were not under contract to Disney. We were not acting as though we were pure and virginal, and we were not taking skanky photos of ourselves and each other for the rest of the world, or even our limited world, to see.
Miley is an exhibitionist chomping at the bit to get out and ride everything in sight. She wants to have the bad girl reputation. She’s as trashy as it gets without being Britney, but Disney and her crap parents have juuuuuust enough control to keep her from totally going there… yet.
Yes Pastafarian, the more things change, the more they stay the same. The interactions are still the same, the emotions are still the same, and kids STILL think they know more than we, with the benefit of our life experience, know. But they don’t know squat except for how it feels to be that age. They can’t imagine not ever feeling the way they do right now, changing minds, changing opinions, things that happen as you go through life. BTW, how many cops and/or judges in your vicinity did you get high with in high school/college? It’s a hoot when they run for election!
I must have been a really late bloomer, I was 19! Saving it for marriage, finally gave up on marriage, or maybe it was all the tequila sunrises I had to drink….giggle. You are right about one thing, if we had camera phones back then and the “interwebs” we would probably have REAL regrets now and not just our “what if” regrets.
Simon you are succinct my sweet. And always spot on.
CLUNK!!! Ow, I just passed out at the thought of there being phone-cameras back in my teen days. Thank you Lord that there weren’t!
I could be wrong, but to me this looks like a calulated image-morph full of info/photo “slips”. Soon Miley will be leaving Disney like all who have gone before her (Aquilera, Spears…), her image will go slutty, and she will be saying that it’s time for her to be “edgy”. Ugh, some thing never change.
Wow, shudders, I don’t even want to think about how the rest of MY teen years will be then. If 15 is normal, then I’m doomed. I’ll still be a virgin at 40 at this rate lol.
Oops, I meant *shudders* instead of ,shudders,.
I got my purity ring in a box of cereal.
Patience is a virtue. Just wait. By 18 when her cuteness has worn off she’ll be starving for attention. And then she’ll be on the Bang Bus.
Ugh, I can’t wait until this whole that Miley is promoting blows up in her face when she ends up like Lindsay and Britney: a closet full of sexual-tryst skeletons.
I see Miley at 18, on Pure18 on camera panting “Remember me? I’m Hannah Montana!”
