Miley on Provocative Pics: 'I'm So Embarrassed'

In a statement released to People magazine, singer Miley Cyrus apologized for several playfully provocative photos that surfaced last week, as well as photos from a recent Vanity Fair shoot.
"My goal in my music and my acting is always to make people happy," Cryus tells People. "For Vanity Fair, I was so honored and thrilled to work with Annie [Leibovitz]. I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be 'artistic' and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed."
In the Vanity Fair pictures, Cyrus is allegedly wearing clothes, but she is posed in a way that makes her appear topless.
"The pictures of me on the Internet were silly, inappropriate shots," Miley says in the statement. "I appreciate all the support of my fans, and hope they understand that along the way I am going to make mistakes and I am not perfect. I never intended for any of this to happen and I am truly sorry if I have disappointed anyone."
























Barbie is just a plastic doll - NOT a role model. Miley is just a young, beautiful celebrity who had her photos taken, WITH HER PARENTS present, with a famous photographer. What kills me is that the same women - moms - who thrive on keeping up with the tripe reported by celebrity shows and magazines have the nerve to complain about the very thing they ask for. I think the saddest thing is that a 15 year old girl is apologizing to these women if she disappointed them. These same women are creating this drama for their own entertainment. It is what you make of it for your own ego - I hope Miley can enjoy it for what it was and move on, and stop feeling the need to do anything other than be a girl star.
