I keep waiting for Ashton Kutcher to jump out and say America has been Punk'd with this kid. She has been the subject of mass confusion ever since she made her first appearance as Hannah Montana. Awful show. For the life of me, I can't wrap my head around why she's even famous. She can't use her dad as a reason for fame, he's a washed up country has-been who was famous for about 10 minutes that one time. With a song called Achy Breaky Heart as the only well known hit to your credit, you've got to accept that it's over. She really can't sing, once you take away the filters. She can't act, unless you call dramatically flailing around on a Disney TV set "acting." And she's honestly not that pretty, for what you would expect in Hollywood. So here's my question- WHY hasn't the rest of America realized this yet.
And then THIS horrible mess of nonsense comes out. The words "dirty pirate hooker" come to mind.
Now here's the thing about this song. It's actually kinda catchy. Not a horrible song, but not what I would expect of a teenager. Can't be tamed, eh? Not exactly a status to be proud of. Know who else can't be "tamed?" Criminals. Prostitutes. Sluts. Feral children. Yep, you're in good company, Miley. She should have kept her birth name, "Destiny," she would have fit right in when she hits her all time high of working the pole. Oh wait, she's already done that.
My bottom line, Miley needs to decide who she wants to entertain. Adults or children. I am so shocked that Disney hasn't cut her show yet. As a person with children in the house, I have a big problem with her prancing around entertaining kids by day and then strapping on the hooker boots and garter belt by night. If my 5 year old step daughter were to see her in this video, she'd be so confused. And you know what, she'd probably like it. Because Hannah Montana does it! So it's gotta be cool, right? Wrong. My only solution for keeping these teenage TV show girls from making my parenting job harder is just to not allow her to watch it. The last thing I need is a 5 year old thinking she should dress like a streetwalker. Bust out the chastity belt and bars on the windows.
On a final note, this video does crack me up because those feather glove things she wears on her hands are pretty goofy looking. How could anyone think those are sexy? Glad that someone in the wardrobe department has a sense of humor.
Miley Cyrus makes me loads of money. Before she came along, kids didn't have music to get excited about, and the parties were very lame. Nowadays, you can drop some Miley and teenagers go wild.
ReplyDeleteIf you think she's a bad example for children then its your job as a parent to teach them right from wrong. As soon as you stop being your kid's role model, you fail as a parent. Maybe its not fair, but I'd rather compete with Miley Cyrus than Tupac.
People seem to forget what it was like when kids didn't have their own party music.
Oh I don't doubt she makes you tons of money! Miley Cyrus is not a child, she's a business, which is where the problem is. Believe me, I DO teach my step daughter right from wrong but I have no control over what she sees when she leaves the house. It's my job to teach, not smother and control. Miley should go back to her "Best of Both Worlds" days and entertain kids or keep making this nonsense and GTFO Disney.
ReplyDeleteAnd I beg to differ, kids have ALWAYS had music to get excited about. When I was a kid, there was PLENTY!!! It's not like Miley has made this huge musical breakthrough and changed the entertainment industry as we know it.
