Hayley Williams Defends Miley Cyrus Buzznet Community Roundup

Hayley Williams Defends Miley Cyrus: Buzznet Community Roundup

On Tuesday we posted Hayley Williams' statement defending Miley Cyrus' "photogate." A bunch of you got really riled up.

Orihime felt that [photographer] Annie Leibovitz was largely responsible.
In response to that, xblanksfiction said: "I seriously doubt that. I mean, I just can't imagine Annie Leibovitz waking up each morning, eating a bowl of nails with milk, thinking to herself as she grinds her teeth 'How am I going to ruin Miley Cyrus' life today? How will I implement my master plan?' "
Bulletproofheeb made us LOL by commenting: "That picture of Hayley Williams [above] ... I can see she's wearing a strapless dress, but if you cropped it, she could be nude! Completely nude! On film! What kind of an example is she setting in that picture by being naked under the clothing she's wearing!?"
Angelcrossmarie puts the responsibilty on the parents: "My 7-year-old niece Hannah (ooh, that was unintentional ...) has taken more 'provocative' shots at Glamour Shots then Miley Cyrus' picture in Vanity Fair ... it's so infuriating, these parents are only mad because they let their TV babysit their daughter, and now they are suffering the consequences."
Sunkist1020 thinks it's on Miley: "It is different, because she's a celebrity. It doesn't mean it's right for anyone else to do it but she could be the celebrity who will teach the next generation to NOT take pictures of themselves like that. She knows that I bet you and there's a good chance she won't do this again which is respectable."

Now, I know this qualifies as not letting it "blow over," but it's not that often we get such strongly worded arguments representing several different perspectives. (Well, thats a lie, there is QOTD, but I can't get wrapped up in that.)

Do you think Hayley has any extra cred in this argument because SHE is often seen as a role model?

	Steffi: 05/09/2008 11:50 AM I think so; I mean Hayley is a role model to lot's of teenage girls across the world really. Personally, i'm not putting all my blame on Miley for this.
	PanasonicYouth: 05/09/2008 12:27 PM I've got to agree with Adam on this. This has to be the most overworked bit of drama ever. This photo IS NOT THAT BAD AT ALL.
	ashdood: 05/09/2008 12:37 PM I just think, if they're gonna take a photo that will obviously be regarded as scandalous, and their intention was artsy, then they should make sure the photo LOOKS ARTSY. And NICE.
	loufromthebloc: 05/09/2008 12:43 PM The h8erz can kiss Miley's butt to be honest I'm just so glad that America made a big deal out of this and the UK don't care haha

	Steffi: 05/09/2008 12:49 PM Things do seem overly- hyped up in America... when my friend was there, she said she was watching the news and Ashley Tisdale was on it cos' of her nose job or something =S
	craycatastrophe: 05/09/2008 12:58 PM woww people take this stuff wayyy to seriously shes a growing girl you cant expect her to be amercas little sweetheart forever.
	conquistador: 05/09/2008 12:59 PM It's not like Miley Cyrus was actually nude, there's a difference between slut and art.
	awkwardturtle27: 05/09/2008 2:03 PM yeah, Hayley gets extra cred. i still dont get why people are still talking about this. Miley is having to grow up faster than most girls. Let her be. its like when there was that other "scandal" when she took pictures of her and her friend and those twizzlers. like you've never had so much fun with your friends, and then other people dont understand that you were just having fun.
	amymarissa: 05/09/2008 4:46 PM I really don't think that this constitues her as just 'growing up fast'. She made a mistake, yeah. Why can't people just accept that though?

	FueledBySass: 05/09/2008 6:17 PM too many mistakes if you ask me. that isnt the only "racy" pic of miley i've seen. she needs to stop. shes out of control, i mean how old i she 12? anywho. if not shes gonna crash and burn harder that Britney.

She's 15, and many 15 year olds have done worse by then.
	FueledBySass: 05/09/2008 6:52 PM conquistador said: She's 15, and many 15 year olds have done worse by then. of course they have but she's in the spotlight. she knows that, and she knows that most of her fans are little girls she oughta be more careful if she wants to have any fans.
	brittanyriot: 05/09/2008 7:29 PM either way, Miley Cyrus made $18 million more than I did this year, so kudos to her.
Total: 133 1 2 3 4 5 6 7... 9
