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.”

Wow. calm down. @ 06/17/2008 at 9:40 pm

wow.
she did a freaking photo shot, for a magazine.
i mean, gawd, its not like its playboy.
at least she was wearing clothes.
give the girl a break.
yeah, she knew what she was doing & she more than likely want tricked, but whatever.
she wanted to feel sexy & have people know it.
really, what 15 year old girl doesnt.
just because shes a celebrity doesnt mean she shouldnt be able to have her fun like the rest of us.
ily miley.
you still have MY support.

This is a really bad picture of her even if you exclude the whole nudity factor. Come on, she looks like a ******* half-naked corpse. This is in no way artistic. Anyway;

She knew what she was getting into. If you want a G-rated image, you don’t get to pose topless, end of story.

IF I WAS MILEY MOTHER I WOULD NOT HAVE ALLOWED THESE PHOTOS TO EVEN BE TAKEN. HER PARENTS SHOULD HAVE VIEWED THEM BEFORE ALLOWING THEM TO BE PUBLICLY VIEWED. NO 15 OR 16 YEAR OLD SHOULD BE “SEMI-TOPLESS.” YES SHE IS BEAUTIFUL, BUT SHE IS STILL YOUNG GIVE HER A CHANCE TO BE A KID.

miley cyrus is hot but why would she degrate her self like this if i were a women and i did this my mom would beat the pee out of me.

you guys are dumb if you think a 15 year old can’t be manipulated . Every single one of you have been talked into something stupid. You all have something you regret. worry about your own mistakes and let Miley deal with her own. I look at that picture and I can plainly see she is completely uncomfortable. Grow up losers, you all act like this 15 year old girls life should revolve around you. Public figure or not, she is entitled to a few mistakes in life and I am indifferent. She will get through it and I am certain you’ll all survive.

poor miley.. being pressured by the stench of the world (media, hollywood, etc..) just like other celebrities..

Omg someone give her something to Eat.

She has a bare back! omg, she is a witch, lets burn her. No really she should be put down like the dog she is. Its bad enough she can show her face, unlike other females around the middle east, but to show her BACK! Thankfully she lives in a place that grants freedoms, she looks fine, she aint prego, and has a good income. Maybe we make a big deal about this crap because of our own demons….not hers

people that say shes a ****, and she sucks and stuff are just stupid and immature. because miley does make mistakes like everybody else, but hers are just broadcasted throughout the media. we all have “racy” pictures floating around. me and my friends take pictures by the pool in our bathing suits all the time, and i know were not the only ones. if you go on myspace, or facebook basically every highschool girl has tons of pictures of them in their bathing suits, or showing off cleavage. In my opinion miley i better role model then most preteens older sisters, its not like she swears or does drugs. so, she made a couple mistakes, get over it.

i think that everyone should get off her back. If she wanted to take those pics then let her. No one can say she’s the only teenaged girl who takes pics of them selves in sexy or cute poses.I have a 15 yr older daughter also and she’s always taking pics with all kinds of poses. Now as far as the pics in the magazine, that would have been her parents job to sit her down and talk to her about what kind of pics to take. But when ur child is taking care of the parent ,the parents feels like theyhave to let them do what they want. As long as she keeps bringing in that money! People make mistakes, just don’t make anymore. I also think that when You decide to be famous and in the public eye, you just can’t do anything that a normal teenager would do. That a choice she made when she became a star.

All this doesn’t change what a wonderful actress and singer she is!!

ii think she looks ****** classy and great plus there is no ****** nude in that pic all yall r ****** treating her just like yall treated Brittany Spears and all the others so **** YOU MOTHER FUCKERS !!!

Does it matter @ 07/29/2008 at 9:22 pm

r u guys all stupid. dont listen to the poparitzi. its just a dad a daughter hugging nothing more u idots. if u hate h.m of m.c then just say it to urself. no one else wants to heer u wine so SHUT UP losers. mileys rocks!

HOW COULD HER PARENTS LET HER DO THAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

iddgbgf2r47gf4735tgy6kj9;poiu

there not tht bad…
worse could be going topless and stuff..its artistic but she’s kinda young =[..so doesn’t compare to the pictures she sent to her ex.!
i don’t hate her..i feel sorry..still think she’s a **** at times but i just gotta ask..WHY?

oh and i forgot.
let her live her life we do embarassing stuff no one cares about so why should we care about the things she do tht we do and think of ‘em as wrong.?

Ok… I heard she told a friend of hers that she wants to become a “sex symbol”. Firstly, ew. Secondly, at her age she shouldn’t be thinking about anything like that. It’s ridiculous. She’s no Marilyn (sp?). She’s no Pam. Okay? She wanted that shoot and she got what she wante dout of it, that is until she saw the reaction. Face it Miley fans, there is no excuse. Sorry, not to be rude but it’s the truth.

poor poor miley i still love u no homo

NeverSayNever @ 08/29/2008 at 12:55 am

i saw her other photos and they are twice as worst. I HATE MILEY CYRUS. miley cyrus is a big DISNEY ****. she is not a good role model. she has more than 20 photos of herself in the internet and they are inapropriate.
selena gomez and demi lovato are better role models. children should look up to them not miley. miley is ****** ***** ****. before she was a good girl but now she had totally change because of her publicity. why she could be like hillary duff. a celebrity who have always been good girl.
when miley grows up i think she is gonna turn out like lindsey lohan. miley should not be bff with that mandy girl. mandy jiroux is a stripper model so maybe that is why miley became like this.
PS. mady jiroux is 21 years old. it is so weird a 21 year old hanging with a 15 year old. WEIRDO’S!!!!

Miley watch yourself.
First of all with the media around you, you have to cover yourself out.
Second you are hot so any pic of you like the ones in yahoo.com will ruin you.
And third you have a great body.

Let’s see. A fifteen year old working in an industry that makes you an adult at your first work. Wanting to do artistic portraiture. All private parts covered. Working the eyes for innocence and seduction. This goes on in middle school more than you think let alone high school. If I had a daughter I would allow this photo session. But then, art is in the eye of the beholder. By the way, there is a cute picture of my wife and her cousins all four naked in the bath tub. A popular item in the 50’s and 60’s. And from a small town. Got processed by a photo lab.

Better an artistic photo session than those who give it away with no recourse. I think there is no apology necessary for Miley or her parents.

PPSSHH!!! @ 11/07/2008 at 9:19 pm

oh poor miley……….NOT oh my god the things you people do for this little girl is ridiculous!!!!! she knew with or without the story what she was doing so suck it up stop acting like your legal cuz you not and if you want to make an impression on somebody GO OUT AND MAKE SOME REAL MUSIC!!!!!! its people like miley that make a joke out of disney!!!!
