Cyrus slams 'double standards' in entertainment industry

Miley Cyrus is fuming over recent criticism of her raunchy new image -- insisting there is a double-standard in the entertainment world that allows young male stars such as Zac Efron to strip off onscreen but condemns women who flaunt their assets.

The 17-year-old has been stung by the negative reaction to her saucy new stage costumes and provocative dance routines in recent weeks as she promotes her latest single, "Can't Be Tamed."

Actually, the young woman is merely following the footsteps of many a female entertainer--but she's 17. If she was 22, the press would be all about her 'reinventing' herself. Still, she did the Lolita shots for-- what was it?-- Vogue? a year or so back and I'm assuming she has a manager and 'expert' career advice.

Evidently she see only a small part of the "double standard" and doesn't realize she'll be part of it her whole life. Anyway, big difference between a male taking his shirt off and a female using every body part she has to promote any talent she may have. This girl saddens me, somewhere someone she trusts is handing her a line of bullshit and she's buying into it.
