Enough About Miley Cyrus

For the past 72 hours all I have been hearing about and reading and seeing is Miley Cyrus and her MTV performance. The singer didn't sing and took the opportunity of a worldwide audience to generate as much buzz as she could because her record sales are not doing that great. If you don;t think it was intended to shock and awe, then you must not have realized that Miley had 5 people on payroll that night specifically tracking Twitter and other social media and knew within 30 minutes of her performance that she accomplished what she wanted.

The past few days have just been more of a boon to her and she is going to keep on doing it and doing it until she is the most famous name in the world. She wants to be back where she was in the past but wants to be able to do it her way which means out there in every sense of the word. If you told her she could sell a million albums a minute if she would have sex with a pony, she would already in a car driving to a farm.

Did it encourage date rape as Cyndi Lauper said? No. Was it amazing and a work of art like Adam Lambert said? No. It was what the Video Music Awards have always been. A place to shock and a place to get some buzz and Miley is guaranteed some nominations and wins next year even if she only releases a recording of her having sex with a group of teddy bears.
