No she doesn't - not at all
“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....
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.
Message: There is no valid non-phony way to grow up therefore remain a child your entire life.
Unfortunately Miley and her ilk have decided to go one step further: Remain childish your entire life.
Many generations of women came to flowering sexual maturity without engaging in THAT....
and why do people that stupid deserve to have articles about them??

Remember paris hilton? Several years ago there was a ‘sex tape’ making its way around the world through the internet. I didn’t see it and have no interest in seeing it. Shortly after, her popularity soared.
miley cirus had a wholesome clean image, until now. Apparently her career was tanking, so she or her producers decided to go slut. And now everyone is talking about her. I don’t know if it has helped her career, and I don’t care.
Why is it that wholesome goes nowhere, and slut sells?
I think Cyrus’s “performance” was more stupid than lewd. The danger in what she did is influencing young teens to act stupid.
She was baptized in a Southern Baptist church in 2005.
Her godmother is Dolly Parton.
She is an avid supporter of gay rights. She has a tattoo with two stripes on her ring finger symbolizing equal rights for gays.
By 2011 she had a personal worth of 120 million dollars.

I have decided that for me personally, there is only one way to look at the total decline of morality and civil behavior in society: It’s all Bible prophecy and there is nothing we can do about it. Keep your faith strong, don’t give in, don’t accept what you know is wrong because it’s popular opinion, take care of yourself and your family, sit back and let it happen.
