Miley Cyrus: What gives you the right to bash her?
Well, as I’m sure some of you know, I’m a huge Miley Cyrus fan. Hence the username, ava, siggy... But this blog isn’t really about her, so to speak, it’s about anyone that you bash without truly knowing them. I’m using Miley as an example because she’s my favorite
First off, the amount of crap people say about her absolutely ridiculous. She's a person, too, so what makes you think you can just say those awful things? Seeing as you don't know her on a personal level, you absolutely cannot make any judgments. The same goes for any celebrity. You've got no idea what it's like to go through a world where people are constantly piling pressure on your shoulders for the public to see, and honestly, it's amazing she's kept her chin up throughout everything. Really, it's fine not to like someone, but keep it to yourself. The less hate you put into the world the less you're gonna get back.
The fact that people think it’s okay just to say terrible things about people just because they’re famous really disappoints me. Haven’t we got better things to worry about? Clearly not, if more than half of what is posted on the internet about Miley is “I hate her. She’s a slut who can’t sing.” That is just so appallingly rude and even borderline cruel. Believe it or not, those kinds of things make it back to people and they hurt to hear.
For example, imagine going to high school and half of them openly hate your guts. They sneer at you and call you names, and even go so far as to put up death threats around the school. The idea of that is absolutely terrifying, but it is reality for several stars nowadays.
But I am so, so proud of the way Miley has handled all of this. She's undergone things nobody, let alone someone who is still a kid, should have to, and she has never made a single complaint or snappy remark.
Really- next time you're about to make a statement about anybody you don’t know's character, think about how seeing this stuff makes them feel.
Miley [in response to how she feels about the things being said]:
When there’s always a camera there and you can never make a move and as soon as you make a mistake it’s analyzed. And especially not just by like, the paparazzi and magazines, you know, it’s the people that are commenting and on the message boards. There have been several times I've really like broken down, like I don't understand, these people don't even know me

I do have my opinions, I no longer voice them anymore, but Miley has done some not so nice things too. So some critism should be bestowed. I know, all kids to stupid things, but if she wanted fame she needs to learn how to be a good role model. Flashing her bra isn't really doing a good job is it? She wouldn't even be famous if it wasn't for her dad. Her singing isn't amazing, I'll say she's good, but the hype over it isn't what it dsereves. Hannah Montana will fade. Miley Cyrus will fade. I don't like her music, but that's not why I don't like her. I just belive that she should be a good role model, since there are ten-year olds who adore her. She needs to be a role model for them She could be sl*tty or anything she wants (please note I'm not saying she's sl*tty it's an example), as long as it's not in the public's view. I know that's hard for star, but she needs to live to those responsabilities.
and well stay she should in her own genere but that's different, and that's all I'll say on that.

You're right.
No one has the right to bash her at all because "she's famous and get anything."
Without her father being Billy Ray Cyrus, she wouldn't be famous. She wouldn't even be on TV. Hannah Montana was a good show until teenagers, freaking teenagers, thought she was the best. She is no one in my opinion. She's another child star that will fade. And honestly, I don't go around bashing her at all, but it gets to a point when her non-worthy music is a nominee for the VMAs. She is too young to be in that. She's inexperienced and will never be as big as she wants.
And as for her quote, it's crap. I don't believe half the things celebs say these days. They're all full of crap.

ohmygod we sang Hannah Montana in Choir and danced to it. It was awesome! :D
I agree with Stevie :D

"Which is the same reason someone should never obsess or celebrities either. You can't love them if you don't know them."
But obsessing over somebody doesn't hurt anybody and isn't cruel like needlessly bashing them, and so there isn't really a problem with it.
"Being famous, one has to expect it and accecpt that people will hate them and they shouldn't let it bother them."
these are my complaints, not miley's or any other celebrity's. and if you dislike someone then that's your right, but sending them DEATH THREATS and creating HATE VIDEOS.... that's not right.

Being famous, one has to expect it and accecpt that people will hate them and they shouldn't let it bother them.
Being human, people shouldn't hate other because people can change. Fellows should espically not hate people they do not know. Which is the same reason someone should never obsess or celebrities either. You can't love them if you don't know them.

It's surprising, How some people can say such things as 'She's such a b*tch' and, 'She cant sing', When I bet those people couldnt sing for their life either, And even if they could. Who bloody cares? She's getting paid for it.
Thats how I see it. She's still getting paid more than any of us are. No matter what we say or do, She'l always get money. So whats the point of saying something nasty? It's not like she'll listen to you and care all that much, she's got way to much to give up if she does.
I dislike Miley, But only because she's just not my style.
& For all those people who say she's ruining disney.
1: Dont watch it. There are still other shows on disney, I know for a fact.
2: Dont listen to her music, No one's forcing you.
3: Dont look at her pictures, or read the arcticles about her.
& 4: DONT TALK ABOUT HER IF YOU HATE HER SO MUCH, for 'ruining disney'. Talking about her is only giving her more fame. either way, Your losing.
Everyone gets sh*t, just because she's famous doesnt mean she has a free ride in life. She still has to deal with the most painful things. Death, Love, Work and School. She's dealing with more sh*t than we are. BE GREATFUL. She works all day for your f*cking entertainment and if you dont like it, she doesnt need your badmouthing when she's only trying to make a show and some music. Just because she gets to live her dream doesnt mean she deserves sh*t.
[Woah, That sounded major b*tchy, but it needed to be said.]
Amazing blog.

I agree that she should've seen it coming, but it's a bit cruel of people to bash her, and anybody else, without knowing them. I understand negative opinions, but don't go out and say, "Eeew, omg, they're such sl*ts" when you have no idea. Just because they're famous doesn't mark them as bad people, and it doesn't keep them from hearing the rude comments either. Honestly, who do people think they are?
Great Blog.
In My Insanity, July 1st, 2008 at 11:57:11pm
Well written. The people who have nothing better to do with their time than pick on teenagers like Miley on the internet amuse me really, they need hobbies. There are better things to do than make hateful, useless comments about someone you don't know.
Kurtni, July 1st, 2008 at 06:01:15pm
Okay, Fine... Don't accept my comment.
[size=0] besides, talk about bashing[/size]
Barney Stinson, July 1st, 2008 at 05:55:56pm
Yeah, and she has accepted it. The quote I used is the only time she's ever made a comment about it and it was because she was asked. And she's kept her chin up throughout it.
And yeah, it's a mean world. But that doesn't mean EVERYBODY has to be mean. The point of this blog was to tell people that THEY don't have to be mean and critical, even if others are.
Miley Cyrus, July 1st, 2008 at 04:00:23pm
I agree with Who stole my pants, I just think she's going to ruin Disney. Life in front of the camera can be stressful, I understand that. I also understand that she's a person too and she has feelings just like the rest of us. But she should understand that this is a mean world, there are people who are critical of her every move. Now, I'm not saying that I am a critic cause I'm not. I'm just saying that yes there are critical people out there and she needs to understand that and accept it, so do the rest of us. it's just the way the world is.
Barney Stinson, July 1st, 2008 at 03:56:20pm
people will call her all of those things, and hate her because she's pretty, seems like a nice girl who doesn't run away from her mistakes, and has fame. they're jealous and will make sure everyone knows what they think. people hate her, and they don't know her. people hate me and don't know me. people hate you and don't know you. that's a fact of life, and it happens to everyone, whether we like it or not. but we have to roll with the punches and be the very best we can be and shove it in our haters faces. i wish miley the best of luck with this because hollywood does pick her apart, and it'd be nice to see one person rise above it.
get famous, July 1st, 2008 at 03:54:41pm
I'm not saying you can't dislike her at all, but just keep it to yourself. There's no reason to spread it about or call people b*tches, sl*ts, etc when you don't even know them.
You ABSOLUTELY have the right now to like somebody, but posting malicious things about them IS cruel and wrong. That goes for anybody you don't know.
Miley Cyrus, July 1st, 2008 at 03:45:44pm
this is the price of fame. i mean she had to have known that if
was going to happen. she could've looked at any other tween
queen, britney or christina. her father could've even told her that
hollywood will pick you apart any way they could. yeah, people
don't like her, and i'm one of them. i don't like her because her
music doesn't appeal to me. that's fine. but to hate her isn't cruel
or wrong, it's stupid, but it's hollywood. fame comes at a price,
and hate is it.
get famous, July 1st, 2008 at 03:43:53pm
she's gorgeous, and i respect her, i have to agree it's the 'joe bros' that get me.
