Perfect example of why MTV got fired from producing the Super Bowl halftime shows.
Were it not for “wardrobe malfunction” this would have occurred on the field at MetLife Stadium.
Miley Cyrus’ exhibition is the product of an immature young woman and terribly bad management.
she wants to transition from ingénue to adult roles and her manager either convinced her that this was the way to do it, or she bulldozed over her manager. Either way it was a major mistake.
If she thinks that this was the way to boost her record sales — just look at which female singer rules the airwaves. Adele just stands at the microphone in a black dress and big hair and rips the roof off.
Poor management kills more careers than drugs and laziness.
Not that Beyonce was any better.
Madison Avenue has been using sex for years to hype products completely unrelated to the reproductive function. And we as a nation rewards Madison Avenue by falling for the stunt.
Sex sells.
Miley is by no means the first women (or girl, if you prefer) to go this route. The days of Annette Funnichello, Gale Storm, Mary Tyler More, Lucille Ball being big, well-paid starts are pretty much gone. The tabloids are full of stories of movie starlets' decisions to "bare all"
Sex sells.
And the United States people buy it.
WOW...in my time girls wanted to be like Annette. I miss the America of my youth.
RE: Adele just stands at the microphone in a black dress and big hair and rips the roof off.
The difference is Adele CAN SING.
Miley? She’s trying to cover up her vocal inadequacies by acting risque and in the end exposing herself as nothing but a pitchy stripper.
Shes still some privileged white girl who used to be a Disney princess, and her attempt to appear otherwise was a fail. Her desperate try-hardness is what had me covering my face in second hand embarrassment. The girl just doesnt have that kind of talent at all.
Camille Paglia nails this epic fail of vulgarity here...

If I may speak for those of my sex, let me say I found the video a breath of fresh air. Since things such as this can now be watched on TV, at home and at a convenient hour, no longer do men need to stay up late, ruin their health with alcohol and spend their paychecks at stripper bars to see such a show.
If I had a choice of when to live I would go back to “Happy Days” and live next door to the Cunningham’s
Those were the days my friend...
Unfortunatly we live in the days when America
elects a person like we have now in the WH and
MS being allowed to do that porn show
Depressing.
Adele - pregnant and not married. Not a good example
Why is she any different than Britney Spears or Lindsay Lohan? They were Disney brats as well.................
The entire audience of the MTV Music Awards ceremony could be described as excess population. Cyrus is just the next logical step in societal devolution.
I guess you haven’t checked in with Joanie, lately...
The Cleavers would be my choice.
