No. Ewwwwwwwwwwww!

Biddie said...

whim- LOL, I know...It looks like Billy Ray is in love with an underage girl...eww, wait, that's his KID. Yuck.

Chellie said...

It does seem a little strange the way they were posed.

Gabriel said...

We all do, Biddie. We all do. Even my kids, who worshiped this girl (I guess until now)

Heather! said...

Does look a lil strange..bad taste for sure.

Heidi the Hick said...

heck nah, we hang around looking like that every time Annie Liebowitz comes over to take our pictures.

snort

(What's with the sad pout on her face????)

CindyDianne said...

Um. yeah.


At least he isn't lovingly gazing down at her. I think that really would put me over the edge.

Biddie said...

Chellie - Yeah, I thought so too...

Gabriel - Thank goodness. I was worried that I was the only one.
Jessica really likes her and feels like everyone is picking on her, but even Jessica had to agree that this photo was 'off.'

Heather - My thoughts exactly. Strange.

Heidi - That pouty look is because her father is hanging off of her and being all...'hey baby..'

dilling said...

i think it's creepy....

dilling said...

but i do add this...why is SHE the one catching heat over this photo? what about annie or, um, her dad???

Biddie said...

Dilling - Thank you! That is what Shawn and I been saying...
I read that the proofs were all approved by Silly Ray the day of the photo shoot. Now, Silly Ray is blaming the photog for taking advantage of a 15 year old girl.
Ummm, wait? Weren't both Ma and Pa Cyrus BOTH there? Didn't THEY approve the photos?
I guess it goes back to all and any publicity is GOOD publicity...

Now that pic from that link,just really ticks me off...That is feeding her to the perv wolves.

Sigh,she is going to be another one who is messed up when she is 18.

Sad

Heather! said...

Tell you the truth ,I feel bad now ,just for posting it here...

Biddie said...

Heather - I saw that photo in the local paper a couple of days ago.
While it is tastfully done, I think that it is distasteful for a 15 year old. That is just my humble opinion.
I do feel badly for the kid. She is, after all, just a kid.

Typical Hollywood - doing their utmost to destroy innocence anywhere they can. Annie L. is known for doing "off-colour" racy photographs, so why was she taking pictures of a 15 yr old? Because that's what Hollwood THINKS we want! To see innocence tarnished. And as long as we continue to buy their trashy magazines, and watch their stupid "Entertainment Now!" style shows, that's what we'll continue to get. (Rant over)

Biddie said...

Phoenix - I wish that you would open up to us more :)

Seriously, though, you are soo right. I still think that Ma and Pa Cyrus are the most to blame. How badly do they want their little girl to be a star? I would never approve such a photo of one of my under age girls.
Just sayin.

captain corky said...

I find it a lot of creepy.

Heidi the Hick said...

Gotta admit, subject matter aside, it's a beautiful photograph. If they'd have taken the pictures one at a time rather than together, it'd be so different. I mean, the light is so great and the wind machine operator really knew what to do.

But man...the kid is too young to know what to do... all these adults telling her how to run her career, when really a 15 year old kid doesnt really need to have a career!

Biddie said...

Corky - That's what I'm saying. Alot.

Heidi - I agree. The photo itself is beautiful. I dunno. It looks like a loving couple, not a father/daughter. The other photo that was released? Even worse. I would never let one of my girls be photographed in such a way. Like I said - Ma and Pa Cyrus are to blame, IMHO.

stinkypaw said...

It's beautiful and yet, disturbing... I know I never took a picture with my dad that way, but then again my dad never looked like that either! ;-)

Biddie said...

stinkypaw - LOL. You like Pa Cyrus, I take it? I don't care one way or another for him, but I just wish that he would wash his hair more often. Have you ever sen him on Hannah Montana? Yikes.
Miley really is a pretty girl, and the photo is very well done...Just kind of.....icky.

Heather! said...

Its just her pose, its distasteful,under those circumstances. Even alone,I would be poor kid,making her grow up or seem grown up.

I dunno...*shakes head*

Biddie said...

Heather - I agree. I feel for the kid. It sucks having to grow up too fast..

Gardenia said...

Uh, yeah, he looks just like a younger version of dear old dad. Then I have some serious problem with children being marketed as sex symbols.

Dizzie said...

Might be creaping me out too - haven't decided yet.






Can't put my finger on what's wrong with it. What IS wrong with it?

The Preacherman said...

Why's it creepy?
I'd not say no... ;-)

Biddie said...

Gardenia - That IS dear old Dad. part of the reason that I find that photo so didturbing.
I agree with you 100%. Children have no business being depicted as sex symbols.

HOD - Well, I think that most people find it creepy partly because of the pose that Miley is striking with her DAD. Have you seen her other photo? The one of her in the blanket? She is being forced into poses/situations that are way too mature for a 15 year old girl.
Welcome, BTW :)

Manic - Welcome! You don't that pose with her father a little ...inappropiate? Unconventional at least? I dunno. I never took any photos like that with my Dad. :)

Heidi the Hick said...

Why It's Creepy:

-They have her posed with her boobs going one way and hips another, exposing her pelvic bones

-we damn well know she's 15 but she's made up to look 25

-she looks miserable

-they have him posed with his hand hovering very near her boob

Any questions?

Biddie said...

Heidi - Nope. You said it all. PLUS, it's her DAD.
Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

ldbug said...

Jeez, I haven't seen this picture till now, it hasn't been over here that I've noticed...she's only 15! That's really bad, I mean this pic is making her look older and, well, it's just not quite appropriate!!

* (asterisk) said...

I think it's far weirder than the so-called "semi-nude" ones of her alone. This is all such a nothing story, though. I mean, talk about a way to sell more copies of Vanity Fair, with all the hooplah.

Gardenia said...

It really is her dad? I should have recognized the wearwolf hair, LOL. I watched Hannah last night and find it so odd that such a hillbilly show got so big....Maybe this was meant to be just a father daughter photo - but it is too traditionally "lovers" in the pose........someone did a real oops, uh, maybe oops - maybe it was on purpose and if that's the case then woe to teenagers and preteens who admire Miley.

Ewwwwwwww is right...what were they thinking?
