Miley Cyrus ‘Embarrassed’ by Vanity Fair

Miley Cyrus ‘Embarrassed’ by Vanity Fair

Miley Cyrus says that she’s “embarrassed” about semi-topless photographs of herself in the June 2008 issue of Vanity Fair.

“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,” says the 15-year-old Disney sensation, who posed with a blanket wrapped around her chest. “I never intended for any of this to happen and I apologize to my fans who I care so deeply about.”

A Disney Channel spokesperson adds: “Unfortunately, as the article suggests, a situation was created to deliberately manipulate a 15-year-old in order to sell magazines.”

The Miley photos, which were taken by photographer Annie Leibovitz for Vanity Fair, hits newsstands next week.

UPDATE 1: People reports that Miley’s parents left before the final picture at the photo shoot but her grandmother and teacher were there. Miley also added, “My goal in my music and my acting is always to make people happy. For Vanity Fair, I was so honored and thrilled to work with Annie. 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. The pictures of me on the Internet were silly, inappropriate shots. I appreciate all the support of my fans, and hope they understand that along the way I am going to make mistakes and I am not perfect. I never intended for any of this to happen and I am truly sorry if I have disappointed anyone. Most of all, I have let myself down. I will learn from my mistakes and trust my support team. My family and my faith will guide me through my life’s journey.”

UPDATE 2: The New York Times has a piece on Miley’s topless photo scandal. The Vanity Fair article was written by Bruce Handy and quotes Miley as saying, “Annie took, like, a beautiful shot, and I thought it was really cool. That’s what she wanted me to do, and you can’t say no to Annie.” She also said of the photo, “I think it’s really artsy. It wasn’t in a skanky way.”

Big fan luv ya

listen here u people need to calm down cus its not that big of a deal first she has pants on and everything is covered nothing is showing
and i support miley in alll of this like its not that nig miley rocks no matter wat and the other pic with myspace and candy thing its not that nig its just a teen doing a regular things myspace is so much worse so just calm the heck down k

ahahaha this is sooo funny.
why would you do it then apologize it doesn’t make any sense. whatever she should just leave entertainment she sucks any-ways.

She knew very well what she was doing. And now that everyone thinks she is ****** for it, she is embaressed.

There is no reason for a 15 yr old to pose naked in a magazine meant for older people.

She needs to go away.
I can’t stand her

Ummm..im a photographer and a very good one, I would never consider photographing a 15 yr old like this..and I know if I did, the S**t would come with it.I think annie crossed the line, in the name of art or not, this girl is 15, what was she ( or mileys parents ) thinking.This photo clearly has a mesage and is borderline soft core p**n.If I had images like this on my computer, I know for a fact the local police would be knocking on my door after the first complaint was filed against me.Call it what you will and I know die hard miley fans will stick by her and these pictures, but if it was another 15 year old, not so famous girl, this would not be acceptable.

It’s your fault Miley. No one else.
We know you’re a teen with raging hormones, but please think before you engage in these acts.

hahahahaha @ 05/01/2008 at 11:11 pm

A. You guys this picture isnt bad she kind of looks like casper the friendly ghost

she’s an idiot. only started defended herself because the public was bagging her out about it.

totally contradicted herself.

I have a hrd time believing anything she says, What did she htink was going ot happen when she posed semi-topless for a magazine? Did she thin the whole world would flip tp the page in Vanity Fair and think to themselves ” o how artisitc this Miley is!’ Come on, pa-lease. She knew what she was doing. If he was not fifteen then everyone would have said that she wanted to appear sexy and she did not have good intentions. However, because she is so young, the media is going to blamw it on other people, such as the photographer? Ture, those pictures should nto hve been taken. But she is to blame as well. Remeber folks, fifteen in hollywwod is not the same fifteen as in the real world.

time to get oveer it @ 05/03/2008 at 3:20 am

Oh yeah she most likely knew what she was doing and yeah her parents were there, they are the ones who should have consider this more than anyone. shes only a teenager and like most teens they want to be an adult before their time and she is like most teenagers they can get influence easily not saying that annie had any thing to do with cause Im sure look over it together and with her profession she knows better but what Im saying is that like most celebs they get caught up and think that they need to catch up. you guys act as if she was having s** I thought it was more serious than this, this isn’t nothing compare to Jamie Spears and lindsay lohan 10 yr old love them did they not. Move on to something like our next president and why the h*** they taking so long to pick the main two candidate . Not saying Im a fan of her cause well Im in my 20s don’t care too much about disney but I recognize a mistake when there is one and she sure did make a huge mistake risking her career, her fans and whatever respect she got. I know Ive made far worse mistake but trust and believe I learned and so will she

def aint frontin @ 05/03/2008 at 3:25 am

well I forgive you miley but in 8 yrs We will expect full front nudity

People need to grow up, those pics aren’t scandalous at all

WOW! She’s so just like “sucking up”!!! I cant stand her becase one, she acts like she’s like 21, and shes only 15, two, her music sucks and i think if she ever wants to go anywhere in life, maybe she should pull her music away from disney channel and just stick to hannah montana on there. But there really is nothing “artistic” about that photo and to think she tried blaming the photographers. I dont think they would lie like that, and maybe, mommy and daddy should have actually stepped up some and said no to doing that and taking those other pictures online. She’s really supid, and like cami said, kiss all her fans goodbye.

I hate her…
she’s making a lot of mistakes…

I hate her. In my opinion, she’s very perverted, the first photos from the myspace, with her friends, she “almost” kissing her friend. But OK, Miley, your fans, poor and ignorant, forgive you. Then after the photos of Vanity Fair, and once again Miley is forgiven by fans stupid. Guys, wake up, she mistakes all the time, but always pretends to be good girl. “Sorry for the photos,” she says this, but later, something happens. What do you think of thinking of time while?

miley, not so smart but I still love u

u are so little Miley, just 15 years-old, you did not think before taking this pictures, i was love you, but after now not so much

why would her parents let her do that, she is a good girl and now she is getting all this bad publicity.. they should let her live her life in a good and responsible way.. everyone is making such a big deal out of this.!! i still like miley and at least she apoligized to her fans..

“im so embarasedd, learn from my mistakes” blah blah blah, she’s clearly she’s copying vanessa or should i say worse because vanessa only did this once and learn from it but she did more than twice so there no way im goinna belive all that crap shes saying, when she first came on for Hannah montana i thought she was the best and sweet but now she’s becoming a real **** and there’s no way im gonna buy any of her stuff or her cdz anymore
