I seriously don't get the fuss over the Annie Liebowitz shots of Miley Cyrus.

A bathing suit would be more revealing.

Anyone likely to be offended, or the impressionable children those offense-takers are ostensibly trying to protect, probably doesn't read Vanity Fair, anyway.

Please shut up and go away now.

I object to Miley Cyrus and any further exposure of her completely fabricated presence. There ought to be a class action lawsuit against Disney for serial child endangerment.

my guess is that it is because it looks like a satin bedsheet...which might be befitting a hollywood actress in her twenties, but is pretty gross for a fifteen-year-old.

Ya, but it was pretty obvious from the pictures of the photo shoot exactly what the final pic was going to look like. Anybody who had an issue with it could have stopped it then and there... it seems disingenous to say you're "shocked, just shocked" now that the pics have gone to press.

I smell publicity stunt.

That's also true.

Maybe she's tired of being Hannah Montana?

Wouldn't you be? LOL.

Removing tongue from cheek... well, that's one way to go about it. But I'm just sick of seeing girls go through the Disney meatgrinder and end up Lindsay's or Britney's. Someone needs to teach them to grow up with class.

For what it's worth, I thought the pic of Miley draped over her dad's lap was far creepier than the bedsheet shot.

Now, see, that might offend me!

oh, absolutely, i'm not disagreeing with that. they obviously knew what they were getting into. the question about why the photos are bothering people is a separate matter altogether.
