Miley Cyrus, the 15-year-old star of "Hannah Montana," said she is "embarrassed" by a provocative photo spread shot by famed photographer Annie Liebovitz that is appearing in the upcoming issue of Vanity Fair.

"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," she said in a statement released today. "I never intended for any of this to happen and I apologize to my fans who I care so deeply about."

If this isn't child-porn, what is it? Why aren't Annie Liebovitz and the management of Vanity Fair under arrest and being perp-walked for the cameras. For that matter, why isn't Billy Ray Cyrus being charged as well?

The reality should chill you to the bones--the liberal elite have long been profiting from the whorification of young women, and like all perverts, they are finding young adult women just too dried up to hold their interest. Its the innocence they seek to debauch. Today its fifteen year olds, tomorrow it will be pre-pubescent girls.

Jeff Jarvis concurs--sort of.

The photos are not the scandal that the press is making them out to be nor as shocking as various prudish parents’ associations will think as they, too, exploit young Miley. But Carter and Liebovitz knew damned well that they would cause this fuss. So they used a young girl to get attention.

OK, its soft child-porn. Carter nevertheless pimped her for money.
