47. Although I've never met her, I've known photographers like Leibovitz who are only interested in one thing. Creating the Photograph they have envisioned that will turn heads and ultimately make money. They could hardly care a lick about the models other than they have a public identity that they need. Tarnishing a teenagers reputation doesn't even enter their minds. It is all about the photographic art. It is the typical attitude of the elitist liberal democrat. I've worked with too many of them to believe otherwise. And btw, all the women photographers are as attractive as Annie Leibovitz is in that photo. Coincidence? I don't think so. Must be why the photographers never have any real friends, only business associates. I hope Miley learns from this.

48. hopefully alot of people will learn from this......I really can't say that Miley had very much of a say...thats why kids are victims..because they are kids...and thats why their guardians should never let their guard down concerning their most valuable assets "your kids".

There is a big difference in that looking like an evening gown and a red carpet. It's horrible and scary.
Such a shame.

I hope the best for Miley.....this is a terrible thing to happen to a kid........and I hope that she see's now ...that its not art....

Doesn't Tyra Banks always have shows about stuff like this happening ?

49. her onstage costumes are smutty. Annie Leibovitz taking her portrait?...c'mon people. Use some sense, it is art. She is bare backed, whats the issue?

50. 20. The pictures are not "smutty" but are not in keeping with the marketable target group that generates Mouse moola. How many 6 to 14 year olds understand "art photos"....not many at all....It's the parents and caretakers of these kids who find the photos of Miley not in keeping with the "wholesome" image....but sugggestive of what they don't want their kids to become.

I understand the "artist" and her point of view but to expect "normal, average" people to "feel" the same way she does is asking way too much..especially in Middle Class Middle America....

I completely agree.

Also, I contend that Miley's parents knew ahead of time that Vanity Fair often displays racy photos. Think back on the nude, pregnant Demi Moore photo, for example.

Furthermore, Annie Liebowitz has shot numerous nude and semi-nude photos, often of celebrities. She has been well known for that for decades, and I would find it hard to believe that Miley's mom and dad weren't well aware of this before agreeing to the photo shoot.

Therefore, Miley's parents are clearly the ones to blame here.

51. In 20 years, during a retrospective of Leibovitz's long career, someone will speak up.

"Who's that girl?"
"Says in the caption its 'Miley Cyrus'"
"Who was Mily Cyrus?"
"Dunno, but she was sure lucky to be photographed by Annie Leibovitz"

You got that right, Xanax!

Miley will be a has-been as soon as she grows out of her wholesome teenager image. Sadly, it looks like that day is now looming even closer.

Annie Liebowitz has long ago made a lasting name for herself, irrespective of this current weekly media feeding frenzy.

54. An interview with Annie in a mag confirms she is a lesbian. If a famous homosexual man took the same level of "soft porn" photo of a 15-yr old boy and it was on the cover of a major mag, there would be outrage, I hope. Queer eye sees young girl in a different lens than others. Wake up people!!!!!

55. The photograher staged the whole thing and when parents left granny IN CHARGE, she didn't think the photos were that risque. Go granny, go granny. I hope Miley doesn't get pregnant like her friend Spears. What pressure to be the top dog off the tween world. Sad.

56. Why do people have a problem with Miley's picture? There is nothing wrong with it. She is a beautiful girl and rich also. Maybe that is the problem. Give it a break and let it go. There are other things wrong in this world than going on and on about some picture.

58. This whole thing was orchestrated by PR people to get Miley more publicity. Although, I thought she was doing fine without this. After all, her 3-D video concert took in about twice as much money than DIsney predicted. I think they're trying to milk an older audience with these pix.

59. *** THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG WITH THOSE PICTURES! THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MILEY AND HER DAD TAKING A CUTE PICTURE TOGETHER! ANYONE THAT SAYS OTHERWISE IS JUST SICK!
