Miley sure came in like a wrecking ball. She scared me.



I can think of a lot of crazy things.


1. Me. I am crazy. Partly because I hate pizza and chocolate…Don’t hate me now please. I realize how un-human that is without you telling me.
 2. it’s almost summer! How crazy is that? Didn’t it snow about a week ago?
3. There are no words in the dictionary that rhyme with: orange, purple, and silver. I thought that was crazy…Seriously, try to think of one! And no, smorange, glurple and trilver aren’t real words. I already checked.
4. God’ love. No debate here, this is basically the craziest thing that exists.
5. People who enjoy exercising. I just laugh at those people. Don’t judge me.
6. Miley Cyrus.  This woman is just her own kind of crazy. I think this should have been number one but I put it last because I have to make a stealthy transition to talking about her now. Pretty sneaky, right?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

       So yeah, I do want to say a few things about Miley. First, just to make sure everyone knows, I am not a fan of Miley Cyrus. I don’t agree with pretty much anything she does and it actually makes me sad that she has to do such insane/inappropriate things to get attention. Who agrees that she used to be one of the prettiest people?  I (with much embarrassment) admit that I envied her a lot. I mean not even because she was with Liam Hemsworth! Well that might have been part of it, yes. But look, isn’t/wasn’t she gorgeous?
Heck yeah she was!
      I feel bad now because there is literally, actually literally nothing about her that I envy. I don’t wish I looked like her, I don’t wish I had as much attention as her, I don’t even wish I had as much money as her. What the heck would I even do with it?

       A few years ago Selena Gomez expressed that she wanted to be a good role model for girls and she didn’t want moms to ever have reservations about letting their daughters (or sons I guess…) listen to her music. I had so much respect for her for saying that. What now though? Spring Breakers, hello! I mean I’m not even allowed to watch that movie. She literally knew that it wasn’t the most appropriate movie…and she still did it. That disappoints me. What are we supposed to think of her now? Besides “technically Christian” artist there aren’t really any real role models that I can think of that are really worth looking up to nowadays. That is really sad. And pathetic. 
 Pretty much sums up my feelings about Miley Cyrus'...antics I guess :/
 

       Celebrities now say that they just “wanted to get rid of their good girl image” but how stupid, yes, stupid, is that? Pretty darn. WHAT’S WRONG WITH BEING GOOD FOR CRYING OUT LOUD? “Oh I just wanted to start doing more mature things and lose the good girl persona.” That is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard. I’m sorry to sound like such a hater, and please believe me. I’m really not a hater, I just feel strongly about this. I don’t really get how it’s mature to do things you literally know are bad, or whatever.
      Miley Cyrus again-I only love two of her songs.


The Climb is just super cute and it makes me cry.
This is from The Last Song and It also makes me cry. I feel like you can sing it about God because it doesn't mention a boyfriend or anything...


If she stuck to that type of stuff yeah, maybe she would be slightly less popular and not always in the public eye, but don’t celebs always complain about being under constant scrutiny? And now her decision is to place herself on a huge stage in front of the entire world (Guys, LITERALLY the ENTIRE WORLD.  The Whole. Entire. Thing. Every person can watch her.) and do insane things that no “normal person” would every feel comfortable doing? And they get upset with the paparazzi for following them and with the magazines for creating random stories about them out of nothing. I don’t get it. You’re kind of asking for it hun! 
You know, if she was the same as the girl who played Hannah Montana years ago and sang The Climb and made me cry, I would be a huge fan of her. If she really, genuinely cared about her fans—all of them, not just the 21+ aged ones—I feel like she would be more popular. At least less controversial and …improper. 
Wrecking Ball. I have not watched the music video, I never plan to, and I would NOT recommend that you do either. Okay please don’t. It isn't worth your time. I have one thing to leave you with that I absolutely LOVE and I hope you will enjoy as much as I do... Something you can replace Miley with. Something that would benefit you to listen to! It actually is Wrecking Ball. Just watch it. Trust me.
 
I guess the point of this was to be wary about what you listen to...and find good role models. And listen to Christian music sometimes because the messages are fantastic.
