Why would anyone want to sexualize a child? She has had enormous success being a clean cut innocent girl. I can’t believe she wants to be pimped out. She is headed down the same path of Britney Spears.

“Why would anyone want to sexualize a child? She has had enormous success being a clean cut innocent girl.”

I always wondered that about Hilary Duff.

She can only be a ‘tween’ for a very short time. In order to keep the franchise happening, Miley must move into a new place. And when it comes to pop stardom, cute innocence ain’t where it’s at.

The answer to your first question is quite simple, and I’m sure it was rhetorical. M-O-N-E-Y.

She’s, what?, 15 years old. She has no idea what she wants, except that she wants to stay on top (because that it what she has been told she wants forever).

Sad.

The industry is hellbent on sexualizing children every chance they get, and the more “clean cut and innocent” the child’s reputation, the better.

It’s all about sticking it to the middle class values folks, the ones who were gullible enough to invest their hard-earned money and allow their daughters’ adulation to go to great heights on the theory that THIS girl, Miley Cyrus, would be “different.”

The fact is that the only way MC would be “different” (i.e., from Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, all those who came before and will follow), is (1) she really was different (i.e., she personally and strongly rejected the culture of promiscuity and exploitive sexuality), AND (**NOTE: #(1) is NOT-—repeat NOT-—enough), (2) she and her family have the strength of character and insight to REJECT and KEEP REJECTING the path the entire industry says she must take in order to “transition” from child star to adult star.

Even if she was #(1), it’s clear she and her family are not #(2). So its Spears redux all over again.

As for why “they” want to sexualize children: because they’re perverts who believe that there should be NO legal or societal limits whatsoever on sexual conduct.

Also continually taking child stars, who have legions of young fans who are watching them, and using them to bash what they see as “middle class sexual mores” is perfect! Just like Bubba forced parents to explain oral sex to their children, every time a child star demonstrates that “growing up” means engaging in exploitive sexuality, that’s another win for perversion and the Rats.

It's worked out pretty well for Anne Hathaway....
