QOTD 8/28
Let's talk about Miley Cyrus. I have been seeing pieces of her "performance" from the MTV awards and I shake my head. Then I saw the video for her song on MTV this morning. DH and I got to talking and we both think that MTV knew what she was going to do. Her video is just like her performance on the awards show. On top of that, don't they rehearse before the show?!?!
Anyways, what are your feelings? Do you think that she is really on a downward spiral Lindsay Lohan style or is it just an act for publicity?

I think I might be the only person on the planet that hasn't seen this performance. I did kind of hear what she did though. Sounds like an attention grabber. It seems like stars that start out in their childhood all do something over the top at some point to lose the "innocent" image.
Hopefully she'll learn and not become a total disaster like Lindsey Lohan. I think people making that comparison should wake her up. I know it would for me.
Also, it is MTV. It's no longer the MTV that we had when we were teenagers. It's made for a broad audience, going from teens to twenty-somethings. They are hoping that people follow the ratings and don't have young children watching.
For the parent advocate groups who are suing, it's a little ridiculous. You can't sue because of something inappropriate on a cable network. If it was appropriately rated then maybe people need to watch their kids a little closer. I watch the show Mistresses on ABC. There have been far more inappropriate scenes on that show than what Miley Cyrus did and ABC is a free, everyone has it channel.
As for calls to Billy Ray to parent his child, she is an adult. He can sit her down and tell her that he understands that she is trying to get away from the Disney image, but there are more appropriate ways to do that. She also does not need to listen. I am sure she has a publicity team who encouraged that anyway. Look at how much it is being talked about!
