She's honestly just really intelligent, that's the only explanation I can come up with.

I love women who shave the sides of their head, and she has a kinda unconventional body type but I can appreciate that she works it to her benefit. I have watched a couple interviews of her mostly because I find her weird voice and accent endearing, and she does seem to bring up how haters have made her career quite alot. I sometimes like pop music but it seems like she is into music without any sort of coherent melody, don't like the songwriting, but I'm also not an adolescent girl so maybe that makes sense.
People being repulsed by her definitely adds to her credibility in my mind, but it's ridiculous she's not a repulsive person at all. Just goes to show how powerful the media can be in forming people's opinions. Having really strong opinions about youth culture is the gateway to hipsterism, which is even worse in my opinion. At least pop music doesn't have pretenses, it's just music designed to be appealing to a general audience, and it doesn't pretend otherwise.

It's crazy to me how music consumption has changed. 20 years ago no mainstream musician (term used loosely) would've done anything like that song/video because the vid would be rejected by MTV & the song would be banned from the radio or edited so heavily that it would make even less sense. Now all this crap gets made and just dumped directly to the Internet. The Internet is an amazing place for free speech type stuff, but seeing something like this really reminds me that it has a dark side. This place can be dangerous for kids. I hope to never one day have the discussion with my son about what sort of sequined goo is safe for consumption.
You're overreacting to the wrong thing. It's probably only glitter mixed with corn starch, water, and food coloring. She's just going to crap glitter for a few day's, and then she'll have to eat more of that disgusting wannabe-jizz-like slime to keep her shit sparkling. The real monstrosity here is the shameless endorsement of glitter in general.
Glitter is probably one of the worst things that humanity has created to entertain idiots. First, it's produced from oil, which means valuable nonrenewable resources are being used to create it, and those resources could have been used to create medicines and other life-saving commodities and services for the good of all mankind. After pettily wasting those resources, that glitter sits around in the environment for an eternity as non-biodegradable litter and debris where it slowly accumulates and ruins ecosystems (Miley's nasty glittered up crap is probably ruining the ecosystem in some sewer as we post, and it will continue to exist there until long after we've died). As a final insult to all sentient inhabitants of the universe, the creation of that glitter turned usable energy into entropic waste, and that thoughtless hack's endorsement of glitter is slowly pushing us needlessly closer to the heat death of the entire universe. So, in summary, with that crap music video Hannah Montana's revenant is not only ruining the planet for humanity and many of it's other inhabitants, but she's also shamelessly pushing us toward the end of the universe for reasons that aren't even principled or remotely artistic. Try explaining that to your son one day.

I'm repulsed by her and it has zero to do with the media. Her "music" is fucking horrific. So is the act she puts on. It's bad on a level of epic & biblical fucking proportions.
That's just my personal opinion, and you can feel free to disagree. But trust me dude, it has nothing to do with the media "forming my opinion", lmao.

Mr. GuessWork, that was an interesting post. I had never even thought of where glitter comes from. Really illuminating stuff there, I appreciate it. This thread is pretty chilling for many reasons.
Niffla, don't even try to justify your dislike of someone to moonrockmushy. He wants you to cite sources, hard verifiable data, and he will then review it and tell you if your dislike is allowed or if you're just a bigot. Chances are you will be a bigot.

I also hate glitter because it sticks to my skin and it's hard to wash off, but I try to keep my personal biases out of these important discussions so the important facts don't get watered down. It's sad to see this kind of stuff becoming popular for me too though. Kids these days get most of their musical education from commercials and stuff that strives to be as valuable as commercials. It's truly sad, and I wish they had better options that were more readily available to them.

Me too, after seeing her outside of her music video persona I gained a lot of respect for her.
She seems to have an easy going, laid back personality, and she's actually pretty damn sharp & intelligent.
She's alright in my book. Her music sucks in my opinion, but I don't normally make a habit of listening to female pop stars anyway.

I mean, I get what you're saying sorta, the whole pop thing is very artificial. People like that stuff tho. Repulsive is not a word I really will use lightly against other people, as in who they are as a person is repulsive. I can see how someone would find that video repulsive I guess, but that seems very uptight to me.
It's ok to be influenced by the media, I think everyone is. It's kinda ubiquitous and none of us would know the first thing about her if "the media" didn't decide she was important to us. It's better just to acknowledge it I think, they're one step ahead of people who think that hating an artist is a good way to hurt their career, they benefit from that now too.
Poop is repulsive. Miley Cyrus is just Miley Cyrus. I find her incredibly corny sometimes, but that is kinda endearing to me, and not exceptional talented when it comes to music, but that is whatever. It's certainly not something that makes someone repulsive to me, it just means I'm probably not going to watch her videos that often. Sometimes I see a weird picture of her and I'm like "what a strange butt that girl has", but I know I'm not one to talk and overall she is very cute way more than "repulsive".

Everyone please stop paying attention to her until she gets desperate enough to release a gangbang sex-tape of herself. Thats all I ask.

I mean she is pretty loaded I think, I doubt that day will ever come. I think that might be why her music is kinda lacking compared to other pop acts, she is probably more involved in the production because this is as much about passion for her as it is money Gotta respect that but there is a reason most pop acts don't write their own songs, or make production decisions. I definitely give her points for looks and personality, which evidently goes very far in the pop scene, maybe she will eventually evolve into something more substantial as a musician. I would like to see that.
She's got a bunch of nudes out there though, which is a nice consideration to her true fans

I was referring to attention desperation, I don't see money being a problem for her. She wants what money can't buy, her picture on the tabloids.

Nah. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that when she walked into the studio that day that she didn't specifically have in mind the goal of having people say "WTF is this trash, what a dumb bitch" as her inspiration.
In her mind that track is super dope and uber fucking edgy.
And why is it that today if someone says they don't like something, the go to response is "why you hating doe". Nobody's hating, dude. People just call it like they see it. Everybody is going to have an opinion. If you like it and wanna bump that shit in your ride with the windows down, go for it, homey. More power to ya.
well i guess we cant really know forsure, we could only assume what was going through her mind while making the song and video. i personally think she was laughing her ass off the whole way through, but that's just me.
hate is hate homeboy. there's big a difference between not liking something and going out of ur way to demean that which u do not like, whether it be on the interwebs, or gossiping about it irl, especially when the person didnt really do anything to you, it just kind of seems dumb to comment negatively on something that doesnt really matter to begin with.
why u hating dawg?

She's entertaining and provides good fodder for conversations like this.
Regardless of her talent, she has marketed herself well (much in thanks to her father) and has managed to have a thriving career without being a complete train derailment like other pop sensations her age. I give her kudos for that much.

I think shes very creative. She knows what she does is absurd and she is basically the american pop star that everyone wants. Shes playing a character and I think its impressive.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline
