..maybe Sinead did mean it as ‘advise’ in a constructive way but it is only her opinion based on her own experiences and that doesn’t mean Miley shouldn’t do what she feels is right and for her career because no two situations are the same..it’s not really anything new for artists male and female in live performances and vids etc to give a visual performance of general sexiness as well..I remember when Kylie was considered ‘the girl next door’, an image she also successfully changed and she’s had a very long career and is still a great and sexy performer....so yeah, Sinead might be more than happy with her own choices and to let her ‘talent shine through’ but Miley isn’t her ...she obviously wants to shake off being ‘Billy’s daughter’/Hannah Montana etc and she’s doing that by ‘reinventing’ herself which is something that’s worked extremely well for people like Madonna and her 'controversy' hasn't done her any harm..who is to say she’s gone too far...Miley looks great/has talent and hopefully is enjoying herself...and she’s still showcasing her music very well...as Sinead said herself, Miley’s music talents aren’t detracted from because she still sees them...you know maybe Miley will end up in rehab/having problems with exhaustion or whatever but I doubt it’ll all be because of ‘exploitation’ but also having to read the constant criticisms of her looks/style/and everything she does so closely scrutinised and at such a young age..and for me that’s the first thing Sinead should have had empathy with as an ‘older and wiser’, rather than being concerned about her for getting naked in a music vid....as an apparent role model, she could have given her some much better ‘self-protection/preservation’ imo...Miley could have a music careee for a few short years or decades, who knows but for now she’s holding her own in a very competitive world....
