Miley Cirus: The Aftermath of a Teen Photoshoot

While Miley Cirus is apparently lying low while the heat wears off, the debate has been started and won't go away soon. The issue with the worrying trend which makes women, both over and under 18, sexual objects to more or less extent, should have been noticed before Miley appeared quasi-naked at 15 on the cover of Vanity Fair.

Not only she posed in a sexy posture, showing the young star barely covered by a sheet, back bared and displaying a seductive look, the photos with her on her father's knee were also disturbing to most people. "This picture disturbs me. It looks like his daughter is his girlfriend. He's trying to be hot," radio host Howard Stern said on his show.

It appears that one of the sources for her inspiration is the Sex And The City show. Wenn reports that Cyrus wants her show to go in a direction more similar to the adult themes of New York based television show.

It is also obvious, as a WSJ article titled "The Miley Cyrus Uproar" remarks, that only a fool would believe the apologies of the adults involved in the photo shoot, including Annie Leibovitz. It's clear as daylight that she intentionally made Miley take a sexy pose, and everybody there understood that the 15-year-old was being turned into a sex symbol: "It is a blatant bedroom shot," says The Times' Janice Turner.

Also, People Magazine conducted an online poll in order to get feedback from people everywhere. According to the results, 77 percent of the respondents considered the magazine photos as "inappropriate for a 15-year-old" and only 23 percent didn’t find anything wrong with them.

Bill O'Reilly blamed Cyrus' parents for allowing their daughter to become a "sex symbol" at such a young age. During Monday's Factor, O'Reilly said that even though he thought "Miley is a nice girl," she made "a bad decision."

Everyone's had something to say about the recent Miley Cyrus controversy involving a series of racy photos she took for Vanity Fair, including Rosie O'Donnell, who is defending Disney's young star. "Leave Miley Cyrus alone," O'Donnell said in a video posted Monday night. "Disney [is] making her apologize. Ay yi yi."

A Disney spokeswoman, Patti McTeague, blamed Vanity Fair for manipulating the 15-year-old girl in order to sell magazines.

"She is a young girl. She shouldn't have to deal with any of this. I don't feel that she was duped ... there were people at the shoot that should have been looking out to make sure this didn't happen," actress Jamie Lee Curtis, 49, herself a former child star, wrote in the Huffington Post blog on Tuesday.
