Trending Today: Miley Cyrus Is Not a Bad Girl

Oh, Miley Cyrus.  She’s in the news for so much that it’s no surprise when she pops up as the big trend of the day.  This time, it’s because of an interview and spread she did for Asia’s Prestige magazine, where she takes offense to the headline used by a magazine, stating that Miley Cyrus is a good girl gone bad.  That seems like old news, just in terms of all the coverage she’s gotten in recent years.  Her assertion that she’s not a bad girl has nearly become an internet meme, and it’s trending hot on Twitter and a variety of other social media networks.

Call me the ultimate devil’s advocate, but I can see both sides here.  You’ve got people Tweeting things like “Miley is not a bad girl, she just has fun (@LouiseJDB),” “Bad girls NEVER tell you to radiate love nor follow your dreams. But Miley does.  Miley Is Not A Bad Girl (@itsskyscraper),” and “Miley Is Not A Bad Girl she is just living her life. Obviously she makes mistakes, but don’t we all? (@HarrysGorgeous).”  On the other side of the coin, other Tweets carry the trend by saying things like, “Miley is not a bad girl. She’s a bad singer (@PeytonsHead),” and “Miley Is Not A Bad Girl? Tell me who smokes at the age of 18. And gets drunk. And do all this crazy stuff. I hate her, honestly (@NourahBieber).”

 

Miley Cyrus for Prestige

And that’s true.  Miley’s only 18.  She’s made some seriously dumb decisions and, worse, she’s either allowed them to be recorded publicly or had the bad luck to do them around friends with itchy camera fingers.  At the same time, here’s a girl who’s grown up in the spotlight, the entirety of her adolescence has been out there for everyone to see, and because she was a Disney girl, her bad decisions naturally outweigh her good ones.

So is Miley a bad girl?  Or is she just a typical teenager, guilty of bad decisions, who’s sure to mature as she gets old?

    Of course she’s made dumb descisions, she’s just a teenager! And whoever said, as quoted, “Tell me who smokes at the age of 18. And gets drunk. And do all this crazy stuff”, is hopelessly ... See more clueless. I know a 15 year old who does all that and, to top things off, is no longer a virgin. Really, there’s so many of them!! Now, I’m not saying that I agree at all with any of the stuff they’ve done, and I personnaly would not do it myself, but her mistakes are just the same as tons of teenagers! The difference? Miley’s mistakes are posted everywhere for the world to see and her to regret..

      Very well put, Anon! I think that’s the crux of the whole controversy — all of her experiments and teenage rebellions are right out there for the whole world to see, and I think ... See more everyone expects her to stay a Disney girl a little while longer.

    I’m a 17 year old girl who has drinked, smoked, ripped weed and lost her virginity.
    This doesn’t make me a bad person, it makes me someone who has tried new things, yes some of ... See more them illegal, some of them terrible to my health and some of them plain stupid.
    But I know it, and I’m sure Miley knows it too.
    It’s very rare to find a person who can honestly say that they have never tried one of these things, and props to you – because there are very few of you around.
    But it does not mean you can pass judgement and the people who have.

      Hi Jessica. I agree that Miley is not a bad person; she’s just done some things that people don’t approve of… even if it’s all experimental. I think people are worried about her decisions mostly ... See more because she’s in the public eye and a lot of young girls idolize her.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this topic. You’ve been very open, and we really appreciate that.

      Hey there. Welcome to All Women Stalk!

      Uhhh, a lot of teenagers don’t drink or smoke before turning 18. I know I didn’t. I didn’t even drink during my 18th birthday.

See more and aboout Miley, I think she’s just a teenager, and besides it’s her life, she can do whatever she wants with it, you can hate on her for her singing but stay out of her private life.

    She’s not a bad girl. She’s a teenager. Remember the controversy about young Brooke Shields?

    I think she made some pretty bad descisions, but the same as other teens her ge. She just happens to be famous so it’s all recorded. But there are plenty of other 18 year old ... See more doing the same, it’s sad, but true. We must ALL move on, and not hate miley for the past.

      I’m with you completely. We’ve all been 18 and stupid. I hate her music and her voice but I do think it’s unfair to hate her for her stupid decisions in the past.
      Thanks for reading!
