What do you think yes or no?

Some if the things she does don't make her one (vanity fair pictures). But overall she can be I read her auto biography and she wroteabout things I think are good to be aware of (she wants to spread the awareness of teen pregnancy). I think most people will say no cause they think she can't sing or rumors they heard.

No, I do not. I do not consider pop culture icons role models, and refuse to accept them as such.

I know this is a debate but I have to class her with Jonas Brothers.

I cannot in good conscience believe pop culture television icons can be in the words "good role model" simply because of the hypocrisy so many of them are. They say one thing and do the opposite. If they actually lived by what they said then yes I could potentially consider them a good role model but for the time being, no.

@sk8skull: /facepalm.

i dont know wheather shes a good role model..
i guess shes okay all teen stars do something bad
but shes hot.

THIS IS WHY I LOOK UP TO MARISA MILLER CUZ MAN SHE'S SO HOTTT

Very legitimate reason to look up to someone. Way to fail...

No. Just like Brittany, her lack of self control in the light of all the fame is getting to her. She's getting tangled in it and following in Spear's footsteps.

Hmm let's think about this shall we? A little tiny whore and harlot of Capitalism prancing around in her underwear singing tunes she never wrote. A false prophet of individuality and "girl power" (gosh that word seems so hollow).
Why would she be a good role model? Her purpose is to make money, and she does this to great effect. She's nothing new, just the new product in a long line of commodities. She is identical in purpose to all the products that came before her. But she is the newest product, and as such she is upgraded with all the latest gadgets and the newest trim. This is done to appeal to an ever changing demographic and market conditions.
I have seen her kind before, and I dealt with them as I shall deal with her, with passive content. Because I know, her fame will pass in time, just another in a long line of Pop Music products.

For me yes.
When is she 18?

What I hate about her being a bad role model is that she doesn't go all the way. Britney Spears went all the way with being a very bad influence, but Miley Cyrus makes an effort to appear somewhat clean in the eyes of parents. She might as well just admit she's a whore by now.

Well at one of her shows she was pole dancing, this did not put me her in my goodbooks at all.

She's good for little girls just to watch and have fun and listen to her etcetera.

But a role model? NO

As

The actual question is this: why should people be criticised for not being a role model?

Or better: Why should anyone look to a celebrity as being a "role model"?

No shes 17 thats 1 year to old to be my role model.

Agreed.

It's a pretty fruitless way of going about things.

She's not done anything amazing and her antics lead me to believe she cannot be a role model.
Just my take.



SHE HAS AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY???? How old? 17? And she has an autobiography? NOONE COULD FILL AN INTERESTING BOOK WITH 17 YEARS OF THEIR LIFE!!


No she's not AT ALL

LEAVE MILEY ALONE!!

Thankfully I've never given a thought for her so I don't actually know too much about her.

Also the fact most "pop" culture such as seems to bypass me.

Anne Frank, hmm?

She's not a good rolemodel in my opinion, but who in Pop is these days. Seems like she is trying to keep up the pretence of being a good rolemodel half the time, but then when she's off the small (or big) screen she acts totally different. Which may be no different to a number of people, but she could at least be truthful about the matter.

She didn't fill it techinically and it only really will have gotten interesting when she lived in the house surrounded by Nazi's.

Shush, or you'll give them the idea for "Big Brother: Führer Edition".

The thing is my the "she lived in a house surrounded by Nazi's" was a part of a song that my friend sang once.. (in a joke. I joined in)

The following line is "she got shot in the face by Nazi's".

So maybe the Fuhrer edition wouldn't be so bad

Pop Culture doesn't produce role models at all.

+1 I agree totally with this.



Sounds like a friggin awesome song. Führer ftw! (jk)

Who cares, shes hot.

Or this.

Get some taste in women, dawg.

THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU!
THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU!
THE POWER OF CHRIST COMPELS YOU!

No seriously she's ugly my friend.

(And 17 once again thats a year over the threshhold for me.)

I-I think I love u.

Seriously? Hannah Montana? Surely the world has better role models than her.

Not soon before she starts with blow. Then we'll see who is a role model.

This, I believe, is false.

I think Miley has her scruples, her dad, however, does not. If there's anyone to blame in the situation, it's almost certainly her father.

Still it can happen. Her father can teach her to be a good person in life and to respect one and other, but she might have her own views. She just hasn't expressed them yet.

So if she did start taking Cocaine or any other drug, it might not always be her fathers fault.

WHO CARES ABOUT MILEY CYRUS

I do, shes hot.

Must I teach all of you desperate chilluns what "hot" is?

In my opinion, she is hot. You cannot change that.

Your opinion is wrong please read the invisible text below to learn why.










No seriously you need to somehow magically obtain a better taste in women. Though i guess if your shooting that low what you actually wind up with can only be better then your standard.

Sorry for being mean and i'm half joking/just effing with you but seriously...

My teacher wrote on my report that I was a great role model and I wouldn't call myself a good boy.

And a better role model would be Selena Gomez she hasn't really done anything wrong or Demi Lavado (I think I spelt this wrong)

They're ugly though

and they haven't done anything tbh cuz nobody knows who they are, nor do they care.

No. Simply. I have nothing else to say.

I LOVE YOU MILEY CYRUS


Wow i felt as if my heart just got teared and diced with each word
No tbh i think she should turn into a stripper or whatever

I thinks her boobs sucks

Her boobs were nice for a 14 year old (when she was 14) but they never got any better. She just started looking a bit more like a female version of her dad if you ask me.

Oh and to everyone who thinks Miley Cyrus is hot.

Just remember half her genetics came from that looker Billy Ray.

WARNING TRAMP BEHIND SPOILER.


Of course!! She's an excellent role model to all those nine year olds!

I'm not so sure about that. I think half of my life experience has been directed by Star Trek. I quote Spock, Kirk and Picard daily. And they seem like pretty good role models to me.
And we could go on to name numerous more examples, from film, T.V, music, the stage, art, etc. Can't you yourself name lessons that have been learned from the pop culture you appreciate? So it seems like a rather silly blanket statement to make. Trust me, I want to say it, I want to say that pop culture is nothing more than a bread and circus for the masses. A whole herd worshiping a puerile idolatry of wealth, fame, and trivial achievements. I want to say that, but I can't, because it's not true. It blankets all pop culture, and blinds us to the truly decent and good phenomena.

Warning, judgemental people going around with their brain turned off on the loose. I mean, it's not like calling anyone names is a mark of idiocy or of holier-than-thou attitudes...

I...I think I love you.

I havent really seen her do anything bad or good so im just gonna say she was cuter when she was young at like 14. Her new image says 'Diva'.
