Miley Cyrus gave insight to Scotland's Daily Record about who liked the semi-nude photographs taken by Annie Leibovitz for Vanity Fair. ['She was just 15 and the picture outraged America's moral majority.']
Miley revealed, 'Everyone outside of America liked it a little bit more because that's more like the style, but the States are really conservative. guess I just had to deal with that and just realize that I got to work with an amazing photographer.'
And that's what I want to do with my life. I would love to be a photographer. She was amazing and so talented and her lighting.. I would love to work with her again. But I realize I'm just a kid. My parents are really chilled with me until I give them a reason not to be, so hopefully I'll never give them a reason.
When they think I'm getting out of line, when I'm talking back a bit, they'll when sorme a bit more and slowly get me back into my more trustworthy phase. My brother will give me a beating if I'm being a brat to my mom because my..
..brother's such a momma's boy. If he thinks I'm being mean to my mom he'll push me about a bit. It's one thing when you're really tired or whatever but I'm usually
really good with my mum.
We're really close. We're like sisters, best friends. I hate saying it because it sounds like the perfect little answer but my mom is so cool, it's true. If you met mom, you'd really like her.'
When she's not working, Miley loves to play guitar, hang out at her house, swim and play baseball. She added: 'My dad was a baseball coach so every once in a while he'll go out there and throw a ball for me and I've gotten really good. That's what I really like to do.'
Miley on her relationship with 20-year-old underwear model Justin Gaston: 'I'm surrounded by good-looking guys, the models, the actors, this and that, so it ends up not being about that.
It ends up being about the personality and the way someone treats you. Also, being around so many actors, I feel a lot of people treat them really badly. If anyone treats people really sweet then that's what's really appealing.'
On her siblings: 'My brother Trace is in a band that's not so popular here but in the States they're pretty huge. And my younger brother's a drummer in a band.
He doesn't really want to do it professionally yet. He just wants to go on tour. He's really amazing. And my sister is doing a new version of a Japanese film. She's playing the main part.'
She still wants to study in the UK: 'I do want to come to London to study photography. I hear there are some really great art schools here so I would
love to do that.'

ok....
I live in Holland.. everybody thought that they were over reacting about the pictures..
Anyway.. I dont think they were bad at all!
Well it's true... they did
Nice
EVERYONE KNOWS AMERICA IS FULL OF 13 YEAR OLD GIRLS LIKE STELLA HUDGENS TAKING SLUTTY PICS, IT'S JUST AMERICA CANT TAKE IT WHEN IT'S IN AN ACTUAL MAGAZINE. MILEY IS RIGHT
AMERICA IS CONSERVATIVE AND HYPOCRITICAL
I THINK she's a really nice girl deep down..
but sometimes she talks too much....
I don't think she learn well about how privacy is really important to protect in Hollywood.I just hope she won't learn it the hard way later..

I live in England, those pictures were nothing
Everyone in the UK laughs at AMERICA because a tiny little thing happens and their like OMG NO, A BARE BACK! THE WORLD WILL END. lmfao.
whoa, that would be REALLY weird if Miley did study in London (I live in London) it would be really good to become friends with her and talk to her about her life; Nick etc.

i live in serbia
everybody tought that picture was ok!
:)
She's not wrong. America has zero problem showing someone getting their head blown off, but God forbid someone show a back. Damn Hays Code.
I think her open-ness and honesty is refreshing. She readily admits that she can be a brat because lots of kids can be. Doesn't mean they are all the time, but I like the fact that she doesn't pretend to be perfect.
wtf this sounds fake because there are so many damn typos and shit.
whats the FUCKING SOURCE??? oceanup has trouble listing that apparently.
nvm it said source but there are tons of typos and shit.
SO TRUE!!! THAT'S WHAT I USED TO SAY ALL THE TIME!! AMERICANS ARE SOOO CONSERVATIVE!! THE GERMAN PRESS MADE FUN OUT OF THE AMERICANS BECAUSE THEY WERE ALL SO UPSET ABOUT THAT!! AND EVERYONE ELSE LAUGHED!! SHE LOOKED AMAZING AND WHY CAN'T SHE SAY THAT SHE'S PROUD OF THE VF-PICS??
EVERYONE ELSE LOVED THE PICS EXEPT THE AMERICANS!!
*aaa* you live in serbiaaa :] I am from serbiaaa ;] But I live in Germany :] I didn't know serbian people know about oceanup :D
Whats with this Team Nick and Joe Emma? Dont you like Kevin?
I'm no prude.
Stuff like this
doesn't bother me.
But I do think her
VF pictures were
tacky.
in englasd teens take pics for myspace ect. in there underwear and we don't even blink. in america its like, omg her ankle, were gonna need censorship on this photo
she's was only 15
she does talk toooo much
She has NO idea how fucking annoying she sounds
"And that's what I want to do with my life"
Make up your fucking mind. if you want to be a photographer so bad, why are my ears *STILL* bleeding?
"Everyone outside of America liked it a little bit more because that's more like the style"
sweetheart you dont know the first thing about style. 15 15 years ago you werent even thought about. stop
talking about things you dont know about.
wtf this sounds fake because there are so many damn typos and shit.
whats the FUCKING SOURCE??? oceanup has trouble listing that apparently.

lololol
YES I LOVE KEVIN!!!!
I mean team Nick & Joe because of the miley & taylor stuff.
I LOVE ALL THE JONAS BROTHERS!!!
xx
I live in London...
she's totally right no one here could see the big deal about the photos at all.... we just thought leibovitz was amazing and got some really beautiful shots of a up & coming celebrity!
I'm the same age as Miely, and im studying fashion & photography here in London! I might end up at the same uni as her!
I think that there are typos because it was probably translated from a different language. Gosh people don't freak out about it.
I get it Emma. I guess Kevin has stayed out of that crap by being with Danielle for a long time
I agree that people outside america werent so shocked by it and liked the pictures better...because im from UK n i dont think they are bad at all..more like artistic! None of my friends thought they were bad either!
I THINK she's a really nice girl deep down..
but sometimes she talks too much....
I don't think she learn well about how privacy is really important to protect in Hollywood.I just hope she won't learn it the hard way later..
--------------------
I love that she is more open and honest than most.I HATE it when people try to be all secretive about things and what is she saying anyway that's giving away too much info,she's fine,so she's supposed to go around and be a boring stick in the mud?She's on the list of 10 most fascinating people so I don't think she needs your advice on how to survive in Hollywood by being more private.
she's right, I'm from brazil and nobody cares about the vanity fair pictures.
people her love her so much :)
Even if her being semi nude wasnt i big deal i would still say the pictures looked ugly
I live in Scotland, and personally, I didn't think the pictures were bad at all.
You idiots, do you really think every last american was flipping out about those pics? It was just those media types who get all the damn attention.
lol. i love that she's changed her mind 18 times depending on what people are saying about them. i liked the photo, i thought it was artistic. don't think it was appropriate for a minor though, thats just my opinion.
I live in Sweden and I think the pictures weren't bad at all!! I didn't really like them but it was not because of the fact that she was only wearing a sheet (and pants) I didn't like them because she looked a bit pale!!
Miley did NOT deserve all that crap she got for the pictures, and the other leaked pictures of her, I didn't find them bad at all either, she's a teenage girl and I know girls who take far worse pictures than Miley's!! and they post them on the internet on purpose, Miley never wanted us to see her pictures, they were sent to her boyfriend (Nick Jonas)!! and some stupid hacker leaked them!! and am I the only one who has noticed that in on of her pictures she's even wearing one of Nick's shirts!! :P
to sum it up, MILEY'S AWESOME!! :D
When My mum read this in the News paper she said "Well
maybe we dont want Miley in the UK" lol
She bugs me (Miley)
I want to be a Actress!
I want to be a Singer!
those^^ are hard buissnesses to get into and she does it
AND
NOW Photography....?
make your mind up!
I honestly don't understand why someone would dislike these pictures of her because she was semi-naked....SEMI, not naked completely. She never showed herself in this photoshoot and to me, she looks gorgeous and pure, showing how great of a model she can be.
I really really hate it
when english people
hate on americans xD
The reason america made such a big deal about it is because she is supposed to be a role model to little kids and the pictures are a little slutty. Would you like your eight year old running around stripping yelling I wanna be like MILEY CYRUS? mm no. probably not. if you do you probably wouldn't be a good parent.
she just needs to remember what age most of her fans are and realize that some of the things teenagers do aren't especially good for little kids to see. that's all.
i live in south africa n we thought thoose pics were beautiful!!! go miley :]
but i could see it being fine in the UK
i mean the attitude is pretty 'everything goes' over there in first place.

not gonna lie, i thought those pictures were pretty FIERCE. i'm into the whole Vogue style. more UK
she doesn't need to make up her fucking mind. she can do all of that. i mean, look at all the celebs, they don't JUST act or JUST sing. most of them have other careers. shut up and leave her alone. she's way more successful than ALL of us commenting on here.

i actually think she is a great role model!
sure, she has made some mistakes in her life,
but who hasent!?
at least shes not fake and trying to be something
that shes not. she doesnt want to be perfect
or put on an act to make it seem like shes perfect.
i think people need to stop trying to get
pictures of her and see who she is dating all
the time. they need to layy off her!
Indeed, the reason some people got whack about is because so many girls from ages like 4-12 look up to her, she needs to remember who her largest fanbase is,
little girls!
she doesn't need to make up her fucking mind. she can do all of that. i mean, look at all the celebs, they don't JUST act or JUST sing. most of them have other careers. shut up and leave her alone. she's way more successful than ALL of us commenting on here

not really. media blew it up like everyone hated them, but a lot of people could care less. i liked them, i thought 15 was a bit young for the shoot, but i liked the concept. i personally think it got blown up because it was around the same time all her personal pics came out and it was just madness and mahem. but i knew a lot of people who were pretty whatever about it, as in no opinion.
Really?
EVERY last person?
BS
Most didnt even care cause they find her so annoying
LOL, Nick plays baseball too!
I just had to say that ! haha
And btw, kids are way smarter than you think.
I look up to Vanessa Hudgens and Miley Cyrus and wanna have a career like them but it doesn't mean I want to strip and take pictures just because Vanessa or Miley does that! Kids are not that stupid!
it's true
I live in England, those pictures were nothing
Everyone in the UK laughs at AMERICA because a tiny little thing happens and their like OMG NO, A BARE BACK! THE WORLD WILL END. lmfao.

i agree
in italy too
I do Love Miley
I may have sounded rude but whatever
I LIKED THE PICS PERSONALLY! I DON;T THINK ANYTHING WAS WRONG WIT IT. I MEAN IT WASN'T LIKE SHE WAS NUDE. SHE HAD A A THING WRAPPED AROUND HER. PEOPLE JUST WANTED SAOMETHING 2 TALK ABOUT!! TEAM MILES 4 EVA AND ALWAYS
i live in Spain and I think the pictures weren't bad at all!!
Everyone in Europe wasn't that upset about her VF photos because they are more comfortable with their sexuality and stuff, its a different culture. Americans are not as comfortable, an example being we don't have nude beaches.
awm thank you so much for speaking our words milez! i love you!
I'm not miley's big fan, but i'm from BRAZIL, and I found those pictures really beautiful.
Sooo not true! ....i heard that mom's in england banned hannah/miley stuff from their homes because she's a bad role model...like doin photos like vanity fair....
"EVERYONE KNOWS AMERICA IS FULL OF 13 YEAR OLD GIRLS LIKE STELLA HUDGENS TAKING SLUTTY PICS, IT'S JUST AMERICA CANT TAKE IT WHEN IT'S IN AN ACTUAL MAGAZINE. MILEY IS RIGHT

"I'm not miley's big fan, but i'm from BRAZIL, and I found those pictures really beautiful."
você tem merda na cabeça?

Thats a lie hahahah How could even belive that!!
I live in Ireland and when nobody made a big deal out of it,it was a photoshoot!!! And even her myspace pictures...no big deal! Why ? because we are not so high strung and 'She has to big a role model,she has no say in it,she has to act like this or else shes a slut'
Some Americans are dumb!
Funny that no one is really getting the point of this post-
THAT MILEY AND BILLY RAY ARE SUCH LIARS!!!
When the Vanity Fair pictures came out, they blamed it all on Annie - especially Billy Ray. They acted as if Annie did not have permission to use those pictures, or they were some how tricked. Now we know that the hillbilly clan knew exactly what pictures were going to be used, and that includes Billy Ray! They are such lying money hungry white trash. Miley can't even do an interview anymore without lying or covering up about something.
MILEY CYRUS LYING HYPOCRITE!!
she looks high and scary. i didnt think it was bad time to take it at this age she should of waited later but whatever. and this what the begining of her slutty self.
oh vanity fair what did you do to this girl

YOU A JEALOUS NO LIFE FREAKK!!
SPREAD THE WORD!!
i'm in canada and we didnt care about vanity fair. it was just like, ok miley's breaking free, whatever! then we went on with our lives. but months later and the states are still making a big deal out of nothing. she wasnt even on the cover and no one wouldve cared if the crazy moms hadnt made a big deal about a magazine that their young daughters dont even read. all miley wants is to be taken as an adult. it wouldve been a problem if these were in "J14" or "SEVENTEEN" but they werent. stop stressing yourselves about celebrities and go back to focusing on the pictures that you americans take of yourselves!
hahahaha.
i really love all the other people are bashing America.
