Miley Cyrus is a Grown Woman not a Role Model

For 2 days talking heads have been talking about Miley Cyrus' VMA performance. Unless you have been under a rock you have probably seen it if not go to Youtube. It was shocking, but shock like sex sells and show attracted 10 million viewers and that translates into dollars. It's about money. Cyrus has a new song to push and all of this free publicity helps her cause. I have heard some say she looked lost, disturbed and someone even suggested she might have an eating disorder. All of this is opinion, but one thing that is a fact is Miley Cyrus is a grown woman who is making her own career decisions. She retired Hannah Montana a long time ago but so many mothers and daughters refuse to accept the retirement. I have seen young girls expressing their sadness regarding their tarnished hero, but a couple of years ago Cyrus did a pole dance at this same award show. Wasn't that enough to say Hannah doesn't live here anymore. Cyrus is not crazy. She is an entertainer. We might not like a choices, but we all have the choice of turning away, tuning off the set or turning to another teen star. Hannah Montana is dead. She has gone to sitcom heaven never to return, and we are left with reality and that is adult entertainer Miley Cyrus.
