Obviously there is no nudity, but it is pretty sexual. Have you seen the picture? Obviously there is no nudity, but it is pretty sexual.

And the one where she has no shirt, but a sheet covering her, was not "sexy" at all. I think she looked more like a crack addict than anything. Granted I think that taking that picture was in very poor taste and definitely not something I would let my daughter do. But I am not worried that just because Miley Cyrus did it that my daughter will now think it is okay for her to do, because I believe we have instilled better judgment in her than that. Plus, if anything it gives us another avenue to talk about what is and isn't appropriate. Maybe I am odd but I didn’t find any of the pictures sexual in nature.

Their explanation that they didn't know what the pictures would look like is a joke; I don't respect Vanity Fair for doing this with a fifteen year old, but they are accurate when they say the images were on a screen and could be seen then. When we did our photo shoots for Biggest Loser I got to go see what my pictures would look like on the screen right away. Sounds to me like they're trying to change her image but cover their butts as the same time. Very, very disappointing.

Megan's classmates wore Hannah Montana t-shirts to kindergarten and two of her friends (now in 1st grade) preformed a Hannah Montana song in the school talent show last week.

I really do hope that her parents wake up and put a stop to it while they still can. I was watching the 'Today Show' and they had 'Donny Deutsch on the show commenting about the photo. It turned my stomach as he tried to say that it's in the best interest for her career. She needs to do stuff so she's not stereotyped as a tween actor. She needs to show that she can be considered an adult actor. She's fifteen for crying out loud. What else will she have to do to advance her career?

Too close to provocative and suggestive for me to allow my 15 yr old to do regardless of what the chic photogropher wanted. We (Miley, Billy Ray & I) have a different view of what is “artsy”.

I have watched the young girls at our church wear the Hannah wigs, t-shirts, etc for a while now. They want to be just like their role model. The bad thing is that these tween girls will see this behavior and want to follow it too. It just makes me sick!!! I totally agree with you man!
