No doubt, many of you will think I'm lieing, but neither have I, actually.

The Miley Cyrus photo shows about 20 square inches of fifteen year old bare back. I assure you her most modest swimsuit shows far more flesh than does the Liebowitz photo. The uproar is that it is a very classic pose which would be associated with cheesecake shots. Her posure is reminiscent of artistic photos of older females, and so is raising an uproar because Miley is only 15.

Agreed, look how many girls in Japan right up into their twenties, do the Hello Kitty or Sailor Moon, shtick.

Reminds me of an old quote from "Soap" Billy Chrystal ......"Plato was gay"
Bert replies, "Mickey Mouse's dog was gay?":p

that Chinese girl isnt that young. Not that I really care either way. Disney has been on a steady downhill in their programing for years. I still like their Pixar/Disney movies, but as a whole, the entire empire of Disney is on a steady downhill.

Walt Disney ink becomes Disney Inc.

Disney is the anti-christ. No, Wal-mart is the anti-christ. OK, they're co-anti-christs.

I agree. I blame Disney and their anthropomorphization of mice and dogs for the creation of groups like PETA.

[Shawnee123]

yeah, but they really fucked up on the duck. Daffy was wayyyyyyy better. Warner Bros rule! Except for their cable company. Which is also the anti-christ.

Someone give me a punchline to this joke:

How many anti-christs does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

[Sundae]

None, he's too busy running Walmart

None. Hillary prefers to call it "change" a lightbulb.

Well, they're trying to sell it off.

Little girls wear bikinis too. I guess that looks more bra-shaped than the usual trainer/pretend bras, but no more so than little mermaid costumes for example.

It's all a storm in a teacup though, really. Disney's about as clean as Kwame Kilpatrick. They just have more muscle.

Although I agree that it's sort of hypocritical to advertise Disney underwear on an underage model in Asia and then condemn Miley Cyrus' pictures.... it seems to me that the problem is that Miley's conduct insinuates some personal choices, while the model was hired to do a particular job.

I guess I'd have to say that I agree with monster... if she's wearing what she would at a public beach, it can't <i>really</i> be considered lewd. Now <i>what</i>, exactly, a girl her age wears to the beach is a matter left to her parents' discretion....

Have you ever seen Annie Liebowitz in action? She's very demanding, and won't take no for an answer. She would be very difficult to stand up to--even Queen Elizabeth couldn't. Apparently, she made Miley remove the flesh colored tank she was wearing, too. I don't think it was her fault--but the adults she had with her should have put their foot down when they saw the too-suggestive pose.
