I
watched a video last night about Miley Cyrus that looked like a home video
taken without the participants knowing…. It was raunchy and downright
offensive. But again, I just thought it was a home video, and you know how bad
those can get!
But
then I watched the number she pulled on live TV at the MTV VGAs, and man……… I
can’t even come up with the right words! I was AGHAST! Here was the TALENTED
singer who can obviously dance, but she is using everything she’s got to…what…send
a message? To whom??? And for what? Nobody sees her as a staunch supporter of
anything HOLY or WISE, and now most of us don’t see her as a worthwhile “act”
to watch! She’s… simply OFFENSIVE!
In
generations past, we had Madonna, who
also crossed the line as to what should be seen on public broadcasts. But she
got away with it, because she did it with a STYLE that we, the American public,
could accept. And I believe she suffered way more at the hands of the opposite
sex than Miley ever did.
And
then there was the lead singer of The
Doors. If you want illicit and seductive, he wrote the book! And the very
things that made him so…..illicit, took his life way before his time!
Then
you have Whitney Houston. Her music shaped pop music as a genre! She can
honestly be labeled as the Queen of Pop! But she too succumbed to recreational
drugs and ended up DEAD before her time.
But
Miley? Who is she? We know of a teen actress who engaged us in movies like Nick
Spark’s Last Song. She was fabulous there! Her acting even trumped her hunky
costar, Liam Hemsworth. But whereas Hemsworth went on to IMPROVE on his game,
Miley deteriorated. And she is STILL falling. Won’t someone put us all out of
our misery and stop putting her on stage???
