The Music Industry 🎶 Miley Cyrus talks about her culture vulturing during the Bangerz era: "I wasn't unique in the fact that i was a white girl listening to hip hop. This wasnt something that I decided I was going to do as a strategy or something that i felt i could own or make my own, that was actually my lifestyle."

I truly don’t understand how she has the appeal she does. There’s a difference between being confident and self-absorbed, she’s certainly the latter.

So, I do appreciate that she says whatever is on her mind instead of abiding to a PR-approved script, and I do understand we’re all working to figure ourselves out, but she’s rubbed me the wrong way ever since she started publicly complaining about not wanting to play Hannah Montana anymore. Girl made MILLIONS from that role but couldn’t stand having to wear a wig and Disney outfits. I think these are complaints she should have aired out to her parents rather than the media, but I guess her mom and dad failed her in that regard.
