“American popular culture continues to prove that there is no rock bottom, and everyone who shrugs that it’s no big deal is a little bit complicit.”

But “rock bottom” WILL come and IT MUST.

Miley Cyrus and Gaga reflect the values and expectations of their audience. They and MTV get rich providing “entertainment” that is consistent with the tastes of many Americans. Decadence sells because America has become decadent. Hardly would call it “art”.

Thank you, Mona Charen, for putting my thoughts so succinctly in to words.

Miley Cyrus just created a whole new generation of child porn addicts.

Miley....some severe internal problems going on. Just like the Bieber...Too afraid to be themselves, but craving the attention, the fame and, I guess, the money.

Surrounded by leeches seeking only to profit from her, advising her to do all sorts of crazy sh!t. Just like the Bieber and his publicists who think it’s okay for him to go round like a black thug, get drunk, doped - and stupid....it gets pictures and columns and his ‘number’ goes up.

She can’t be thug so her handlers have chosen plastic outrageous whore. Make her strut he wares, tight tiny plastic pants and bra...stick your ugly coated tongue out to hide the little girl she used to be. Give her drugs to go even further.

We likely see her and Justin end up like Lindsay Lohan, Dana Plato, Lisa Robin Kelly, et al....

“But “rock bottom” WILL come and IT MUST”.

The question is just who in their right might would want to stay around for “rock bottom”?

Far better to be around for the repentent reawakening before “rock bottom”.

Mona's full of beans on this one. I've shrugged it off, and I deny complicity outright. What good does outrage accomplish? Isn't it witless, powerless outrage that feeds this kind of silliness?

Anything thought important by the likes of that Lena Dunham character has to be small potatoes. It's all a manufactured controversy designed to generate sales, to separate pre-teens and weak-minded adults unwilling to grow beyond their pre-teens from their disposable income.

"Slut Shaming," indeed. Skank.

The thing is one can’t help watching it it was all over FOX and I would imagine the other channels every day all day..That was how I saw it..I never thought she was a sweet little girl,something about her..My grand children never watched her even when she was on Disney..She has no talent so has to show off since she thinks sex is what it is all about..

Often time it DOES take hitting rock bottom to begin the process of repentence.

True. And these idiots like Miley Cyrus will continue to do more and more shocking things to get people talking until we all wise up and just ignore them for the morons that they are.

Mona’s boiling this all down to child porn isn’t correct. Cyrus’ boiled it down herself to getting attention as the objective. She succeeded in that. There’s money in that. That’s probably why she did it.

With right and wrong so confused these days, those old words simply won’t get through to anyone. Slutty, cheap, and “ho” just get amusedly laughed at by those who know better, who know it’s her body and she can twerk if she want’s to.

So, the new era says that dogs do it, people do it, don’t get all worked up over it.

Unless Jesus actually is, and somewhere inside she cares about that, then nogod says she’s just gonna not exist some day, and she might as well be twerking as anything else.

That would be a good idea is to ignore such ugly nonsense.

Everyone knew it was coming. It was a combination of being raised by Billy Ray Cyrus and being put on a pedestal. She was destined to skank up.

Madonna thought she was being “artsy” when she did it. Miley came off as “drunk at the trailer park”.
