(1,370 posts)Step 1 - Do something on TV that pushes the boundaries of sexuality that can be shown on network tv.
Step 2 - Wait for somebody to predictably complain.
Step 3 - Do not respond.
Step 4 - Let others respond, and let the discussion/arguments commence.
Miley seems to be a student of Madonna...and its working for her. I didn't watch the awards, and the only thing I know about them is the Miley incident, and Taylor Swift predictably being snide when her ex-boyfriend got an award - that's her own shtick.
Why are we surprised about this or complaining about this. Its the 'MTV' music awards...the same outfit that brought us nipplegate during the super bowl half time show. I'm quite sure that every MTV music award show will feature somebody making a fool of themselves...not a very risky prediction.
I have seen the video of Miley and Alan Thicke's kid...I think its nonsensical trash. I didn't even find it sexual...just garbage. It doesn't make me a racist, and I don't have some deep seeded need to have Miley only play the proper country star...I just don't enjoy garbage television.
But Miley, you got me. I did watch the video. Or more correctly, MTV, you got me - I waited through an ad just to watch the clip.
