Members lovely_m Posted August 26, 2013 Members Share Posted August 26, 2013 Can't blame them, it was a major WTF? I'm ashamed to admit this, but at the start of this performance I thought maybe Miley could pull off the post Disney transition well then this happened.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 26, 2013 Members Share Posted August 26, 2013 I don't understanding what's so shocking, she's 20, not 14 anymore. She's also been trying to skank up her image for years, this is not unexpected. The Smith's are the last family that should be passing judgement on anyone.

Members ChitHappens Posted August 26, 2013 Members Share Posted August 26, 2013 I don't watch the awards shows but looked this much talked about performance up on YT, and it was so disgusting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted August 26, 2013 Members Share Posted August 26, 2013 Who said they were passing judgement? It was a skanky nasty performance, and the Smiths, just like anyone else, have the right to be shocked and possibly offended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 26, 2013 Members Share Posted August 26, 2013 Considering this is the same family that has their 12 year old daughter in a video with a much older actor talking about a "summer fling" and popping out her tongue ring, I call bullsh!t on them taking offense to a 20 year old being a whore on stage. A skanky performance, sure. But in today's age, why is this so shocking? This award show isn't even a family award show, perhaps Will and Jada should have left the children at home if they went off past years alone and the demographic this show is targeted to. I've seen a lot worse, and that's just on MTV alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted August 26, 2013 Members Share Posted August 26, 2013 None of this has anything to do with someone being taken by surprise. They didn't expect it, and were rightfully shocked. Now, because they are the Smiths, they don't have the right to be taken by surprise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 26, 2013 Members Share Posted August 26, 2013 They can and I suspect that's exactly the type of reaction Miley was going for, and in the end, they (like everyone else seemingly) fell right into her trap. The girl has been going in this direction for some time, I honestly don't know why this is surprising to anyone. I'm not even a fan, but judging by photoshoots and videos she's done recently, this is in line with the image she's been aiming to achieve for over a year now.

Members Eric83 Posted August 26, 2013 Members Share Posted August 26, 2013 I'm no prude but she was doing too much IMO. Including bending her ass over in front of a married man 15 years her senior. But it is what it is I guess. I don't even understand why her and Robin Thicke performed together. Time constraints? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alexisfan07 Posted August 26, 2013 Members Share Posted August 26, 2013 This isn't even a story, folks http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/08/26/will-smith-miley-cyrus_n_3816238.html?ncid=edlinkusaolp00000003 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted August 26, 2013 Members Share Posted August 26, 2013 I just watched it and was waiting for something to happen. That was it? I don't see what was so shocking about this. All I was left thinking was that I really liked the song she sang and I never followed her music before. She sang it well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted August 26, 2013 Members Share Posted August 26, 2013 I thought the performance was a weird mess, but it definitely was not offensive for the VMAs. It was a pretty tame show, to be honest. And yeah, We Can't Stop is now stuck in my head, so she won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soaplovers Posted August 27, 2013 Members Share Posted August 27, 2013 The Miley Cyrus routine was interesting.. and I think I know what she was trying to do.. but it seemed like a huge mess. Of course, she is only 21 so I can understand why. Regarding the routine, stuff like this has existed at the VMAs for many years... example of which happened at the 1993 VMAs. It seems pretty tame nowadays, but it was a big deal back then. It was less than a year after the Sex book/Erotica/Body of Evidence came out.

Members alphanguy74 Posted August 27, 2013 Members Share Posted August 27, 2013 WTF was all that? Everyone was talking about it, so I had to check it out. Is it supposed to be some scary ass bedtime story come to life? Just what is the point? If someone would come out at those awards and actually rely on a good VOICE, I think the world would come to an end. When I grew up with THIS on awards shows, you can understand how stuff like that freaks me out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
