So Miley Cyrus is showing us her ribcage. So what?
I did the unthinkable for the purposes of this blog. I showed my kindergartener the Vanity Fair photo of Miley Cyrus wrapped in a sheet.
"Where is she?'' Lily asked while looking at my computer screen, the only image visible being the photo of Miley Cyrus.![]()
"She's right there. That's Miley Cypress,'' I said.
"It's Cyrus, not Cypress,'' the 6-year-old corrected. I asked her how she knows Miley and she said, "It's Hannah Malltana.''
Hellooo little Miss Correcter!! Her name is Hannah MONTANA!!!
I let her get away with the "Malltana'' error. That was too far from the point.
"What do you think of this picture?'' I quizzed.
"Umm, what do you think of it?'' she asked.
Ahh, I see. She doesn't care and wants to know if she should. Well, I for one was not traumatized by looking at Miley's ribcage from the back. Put some heels on her and this is the kind of dress these Hollyweird people wear to galas.
Granted I didn't think Annie Leibovitz capture the essence of the young lady we know from TV, but she probably did capture a glimpse of the beautiful woman Miley is becoming.
Big deal. I was much more grossed out by the video that Vanity Fair released of the photo shoot, where she snuggled up to her (pretty handsome) dad like they were a couple. (See the video here, on our Watch This Now blog.)
I am also much more disgusted by the fact that teen Jamie Lynn Spears is preggers, and Lily might find out since she's a fan of Zoe 101.
I don't give much of a crap about celebrities' personal lives; I think they're entitled to privacy. I give even less of a crap about a celebrity teen's artistic photo. Miley should use one of those backbones that are showing and tell everyone to shut up.
If by chance you've missed this manufactured controversy and want to taint your brain with senseless mush, click here.

Well written. I'm surprised, though - I thought liberal writers with the Sun were in favor of limitless morals. Your husbands paper comes across and not seeming to care....

that should be "husband's paper comes across as not seeming to care..."

I didn't have a problem with the photos and I too was more concerned with the father/daughter photo. It kinda creeped me out although it ended up being beautiful. Annie L is know for her amazing talent and one should never expect to get the "pretty" picture but rather crafty alter ego types. I really don't get the big deal!
