It seems like Annie Leibovits has gone and done it again. Her photos of Miley Cyrus in Vanity Fair have started a controversy. Some people are calling it "kiddie porn". It was discussed on the Today Show yesterday, and on NPR's Talk of the Nation today. I didn't see the today show segment, but I did hear the NPR discussion. I was a little surprised to hear the guest, Lenore Skenazy blamed everyone except Miley for the photographs.
What seems to have a lot of people upset is that Miley has a squeaky clean image, and is someone their children can look up to. Now they are saying that this photo tarnishes that image.
Does it matter that the images are for a magazine geared towards adults, and not towards Miley's fans?
I find it all a little amusing myself. I'm not a Miley fan, and I don't have kids that look up to her, so I really don't care what she does.
