Miley's Great for Business!

Filed under: Media Minute > Miley Cyrus

mileysatire.jpg

Sex definitely sells!

Miley Cyrus' Lolita spread in Vanity Fair helped the mag sell 435,000 issues at newsstands.

The Miley issue was the strongest seller since last November!

The falling star wasn't even on the cover (the cover image was a 40-year-old photo of Robert F. Kennedy).

According to Women's Wear Daily, the scandalous Hannah Montana feature elicited a record number of letters from readers — a record-breaking 915, mostly negative, letters.

No story has reportedly come close to sparking such a response!

What will it take for V.F. to top this???

    I don't see anything sexy about this photo at all. In fact, I think she rather looks like shit.
    What's with all the black makeup under her eyes. is THAT supposed to be sexy???? I just think it's a nasty picture of her.

    I just wanted to say that I wish everybody would leave Miley alone. I'm 18 and a huge fan of Miley. I really don't think it's fair that people are still talking about this. It happened, yes. But it's over. Everyone needs to realize that Miley still and will alway's have fans. It's a lesson to be learned. That's it, it's over. Everybody needs to move on and let her be a normal 15 year old girl.

    miley's a little slut. Would she take this picture for promotion to her hanna montana line?NOOOO…disney would never do that. She's basically 2 faced to me. She's hanna montana the role model and then she's miley cyrus the slut that you dont want your daughter to be like. Her parents should discipline her more!

    ew. i really don't like miley. only reason i'm commenting is because i can't stop laughing at the 'why so serious'. you said you didn't like the dark knight much, but obviously you did because you keep copying it. anyways, nice photoshopping, perez.

  26. B says – reply to this


    26

    I'm sorry….but I HATE this picture. If Annie Leibowitz cant make you look good on film - then no one can. I never thought this pic was sexy - the scandalous part is how awful Miley looks (looks like the joker!)

    I bought that VF mag because it had a long article about Bobby Kennedy. I didn't even know the scandalous Miley pics were in it. Why is it assumed people bought it for Miley?

    Little SLUT already!
    Don't blame the Parents. This Girl has a TV show and gives Concerts, She knows the word "NO!" She chose not to say it when The picture was taken!

    31

    PEREZ - give me a break. The original photo was bad enough, you have retouched this photo to make her look like Heath in Dark Knight. What the fuck!?

    This story is SO damn old… and the photo is bullshit, it wasn't that bad.

  32. fggf says – reply to this


    32

    shes not a falling star. Yet. but i think she will be a has been at 18. nobody who was a superstar as a child has been able to maintain her /his super fame. except michael J but i dont think he was a solo star as a child (?)

    Re: nadja
    There is a HUGE pent-up demand for Lolita skin in the USA. Huge. Bursting at the seams. The women in my office showed me a Cosmo (?) survey about 10 years ago. It asked adult men a list of questions. One of the questions was "If you could sleep with a 15 year old girl and get away with it, would you?" Something like 92% of men said yes. Look at Japan. Lolicon is huge there too!

    did anyone else see the photos from this weekend of miley? she is in that tiny bikini and looking so hot.. NYC has had a heat wave and I guess she just made it ten times hotter.. I saw the photos on prothinspo and I assume they will be all over the net in about ten minutes..

    46

    This photo posted here has been doctored, but the original is still pretty creepy. Why does Annie L. think that a 15 year old girl looks good all tarted up? I just don't understand why Annie L did the picture this way? She is perpetuating the stereotype of women as objects by this picture.

  47. Krist says – reply to this


    47

    Okay, first of all the only reason she looks 'scary' as you people say is because they made fun of her face, it wasn't that pale and her makeup wasn't that dark AT ALL! & Perez you need to GROW THE HELL UP! Like leave the celebrity's alone, Miley still has a lot of fans incase you haven't noticed like in her video 3 days ago from ssinging on 'Good Morning America' there was abunch of people cheering for her and that was only in New York, not in Canada and all those other places. I THINK MILEY ROCKS! And so what she made a mistake WOW! It's not like you haven't made one. & thats what her song Nobody's Perfect is about, NOONE IS PERFECT! NOT EVEN YOU. So what she made a mistake big deal. It is proably really hard to be Miley, & I WILL ALWAYS BE A FAN OF MILEY EVEN IF SHE DID DRUGS!(which I hope she doesn't) but some people need to learn to 'forgive & forget'. It doesn't matter anymore really. They were tooken so long ago. And Miley apologized. Like noone is this crazy over Vanessa Hudgens for taking FULLY NAKED pictures. So you shouldn't be mad at Miley for taking pictures when she had pants on and with her shirt up if you don't hate Vanessa Hudgens for taking fully naked pictures! I LOVE YOU MILEY!

  48. Lilax says – reply to this


    48

    Gosh someone really needs to get a life. I'm not talking about Miley. People need to leave her alone. People are focusing on her way too much. And Perez is a rude butthead.

  49. Amand says – reply to this


    49

    According to Leibovitz Miley and Annie sat down together and looked through magazines to get ideas for that shoot. Miley had full say in the whole thing, she was not used or tricked by Vanity Fair. She's just a two faced kid who realized too late that this stunt could hurt her wallet.



  50. 50

    but then again, she is still a minor and her agent (or her dad) makes most of the desisions like this..it's sad, because i'm sure she doesn't care, but maybe she didn't know until she got there. but i still thing shes a slut after seeing all the pictures from her phone and stuff. disney should drop her before anything else happens..



  51. 51

    Re: Krist – Perez can do what ever he wants. At least he has the balls to do this stuff.

    Well, I purchased it on the newstand…BECAUSE it had RFK on the cover and the article on RFK was fantastic.

    So, maybe RFK was the reason it sold so well.

    by being everywhere, shes gonna put a stop of her career herself. being everywhere never lasts, people get sick of you and you lose your popularity.

    What a perfect example of American society: everyone was so openly outraged by this whole thing and it elicited such a negative response, yet we find that everyone bought the "hated" issue! A record breaking number!
    We like to pretend to shun the celebrity lifestyle and be appalled by celebrity actions, but if we didn't love it, it wouldn't sell! And it DOES sell, because we WANT them to screw up. We like to appear morally strong, but we're all just closet perverts reading this porn and acting outraged saying shit like "omgzzz she's so ugly!11" and "ew I hate her" while deep inside a little voice is screaming MORE, MORE, MORE.
    I hate this but I can't get enough of this.



  63. 63

    VF is a liberal rag. Interesting that it took such a non-story for them to sell so many copies (their usual crap can't do it).

    Disney needs to pull the plug on this one!!!

    She is sending wrong messages and is getting to big
    headed and STUPID with her decisions!

    What she needs to do is take what money she has now and split!!

    Cuz with what I hear (through the grapevine) Disney is planning on doing
    a MAJOR pullout of her show ASAP!!! Get going girl, while the going is good!!!

    Disney, they can MAKE you and BREAK you!! ;(

    Remember "what goes UP must come DOWN"!!!

    Follow the lead of the Jonas Bros. and take every opportunity
    to apprecuiate what God has allowed you to have and work
    for Him!!! ;)

  68. Miley says – reply to this


    68

    Miley is just another way for Disney to make more money, just like the jonas brothers, and high school musical. Miley Cyrus claims to be an inncoent young pop star, but based on these pictures, she's anything but.

  71. mana says – reply to this


    71

    wouldn't this be considered child porn. I know there is no private parts showing but it's still pretty sexually suggestive and underage, maybe it's SOFT-CORE CHILD PORN…
    What will it take for V.F. to top this??? maybe a 5 or 6 year old? who knows and they would probably do it too… I would not be shocked.

  72. Alexa says – reply to this

    coco, b, redde, missk. There is a movie called The Dark Knight out. And I'm sure you heard the quote 'why so serious?' somewhere. or do you only care about tabloid gossip. dumbasses. how could you not make the connection it's mean to look like the Joker.

    PEREZ: When I saw this pic, the first thing that came to mind was the Exorcist. You need to do a "Separated at Birth" picture split with this Miley pic next to a pic of Linda Blair in the Excorcist. TY! P.S. You Rock.

    You know , one second thought, the pictures showing her bare back w/ her ribs sticking out was not the real unseemy thing here ,but 1-th emakeup, 2-the bare back, 3- the facial look. Billy Ray's and Miley' camp abput Annie Leibowitz and all of his other country bumpkin saying sdo nottake away from thefacts he NEVER said which was the1- whole picture was bad, 2and it was not Annie Leibowitz's fault ,and 3-Miley's camp failed to stop this.
    He rface withall of that balck eyeliner made her look like a pedofile's dream. Sick>



  83. 83

    Now now now just because she is rich and famous at 15 is no reason to hate her, okay maybe a little. But give the girl a break. I am sure most people weren't making the best decisions when they were 15. We don't need her to turn into another Brittney Spears. Cut the kid some slack and retract the claws.

  84. Perez says – reply to this


    84

    Perez.. wow. you are so mature. people can be so stupid! that's not the all the make-up, perez had added some.
    And actually, i saw the picture and i don't think its bad or anything i see it as Art. its quite beautiful, don't you say.

    Anyways. perez. Stop hating on her because she's pretty, and makes wayy more money than you will ever!

    Perez go to hell!

    annie leibovitz is an fantasic photographer, and I think it's awful how peoples attacking Miley. She really does not looks like an whore, and hey she is not topless, like can you see her nipples? really n o t .. Not either her breast so come on! she is just fifteen years old and she was blessed to being photographed by the fantasic leibovitz!
    I would never say no to leibovitz, I really hope Miley will say when she is 25 that the shoot was the best mistake she ever did!

    Thanks.

The photo is fucking awful where the hell is her mother?

  100. Gigi says – reply to this

    The photographer should be ashamed. Not because the shots are "sexual" (they really aren't, imo) but because the photos are FUCKING UGLY. I'm not a Miley Cyrus fan. At all. But I *KNOW* she is prettier than that. Holy shit.
