Disney girl embarrassed

15-year old pop star and Disney sensation Miley Cyrus told Entertainment tonight she’s embarrassed about an upcoming semi-topless photograph of her in the new Vanity Fair magazine issue. She told ET, "I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be 'artistic' and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed." Vanity Fair editors responded: "Miley's parents and/or minders were on the set all day. Since the photo was taken digitally, they saw it on the shoot and everyone thought it was a beautiful and natural portrait of Miley. In fact, when BRUCE HANDY interviewed Miley, he asked her about the photo and she was very cheerful about it and thought it was perfectly fine." However, a Disney Channel spokesperson says: "Unfortunately, as the article suggests, a situation was created to deliberately manipulate a 15-year-old in order to sell magazines." [source]

What do you think? Was she manipulated?

I want to see this picture!

I haven't seen the picture anywhere. I at least want to see the picture before I make my decision. Because it depends how "nudey"(lol) it is to become ridiculous, not artistic.

And you say this AFTER the fact

Miley is 15 and definitely old enough to know when something is inappropriate. I don't think she was manipulated and I most certainly don't think there is anyone to blame except herself and her parents, who, as stated in many articles, were present.

When a person takes a picture with a blanket around them, naked, with bedhair, the picture suggests sex automatically. Miley, I think, wasn't really concerned about the pictures until other people started making commentary on them, after which she states that she was "embarrassed". She had the power to choose whether or not to take the photos.

Personally, I think the picture that she should be worrying about is the one taken with her father. It's too suggestive for Miley to have taken with her dad. It just looks...wrong.

No

No, I do not think she was manipulated. She is 15 years old, she is definitely she is old enough to make her own decisions. But in reality, the pictures aren't that bad. I personally think the pictures are simply gorgeous.

Absolutely not.

Come on. She's 15. I realize that 15 isn't OLD, but 15 is old enough to understand what a picture can do to a celebrity. She's not 9, guys. I'm pretty sure she thought the pictures were cool, or sexy, but didn't really stop to think about the consequences.

I don't think the pictures were too bad, but since its Miley, I can understand. Once she begins to be seen as a sexual adult she can no longer be marketed to children and she loses her product value. Really...thats all she is to Disney. Just another product value. I'm pretty sure Disney forced her to apologize.

I just hope she doesn't do anything worse and end up like Lindsay. Lindsay was the perfect, sweet preteen chick too. =[

Manipulated!?

I can see how people think that poor innocent Miley Cyrus was manipulated. What I don't get is how she feels embarrassed after it's published. Truthfully I think there's nothing wrong with the photo. Yeah it's a little too adult for her. But she wasn't naked. Girls show their backs all the time. I just think Miley should have stuck with her original thought of the photo. She shouldn't let fans, non fans, the media, or even Disney Channel change her mind.
