It began with the suggestive pictures of her at a friends sleepover.  Then she showed up on the red carpet with jet-black-hair and heavy make-up.  Her outfits became shorter and her tops appeared more low cut.  Recently racier photos surfaced on the web of her laying in a boys lap, showing off her green bra, and then the final shocker hit the press of 15 year-old Disney star, Miley Cyrus, posing almost nude for an upcoming Vanity Fair Edition.

In trying to mitigate against the steady media circus attacking Miley’s once portrayed good-girl imagine, the pop-idol promptly released a statement to People declaring, “My goal in my music and my acting is always to make people happy. For Vanity Fair, I was so honored and thrilled to work with Annie [Leibovitz]. I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be 'artistic' and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed”.

In Miley’s defense Disney responded by supporting their star and pointing the finger at the irresponsibleness of the magazine stating, "Unfortunately, as the article suggests, a situation was created to deliberately manipulate a 15-year-old in order to sell magazines”.

Vanity Fair quickly rebutted Disney and Miley’s comments by making the public aware of the presence of both her parents, grandparent, and teacher on set during the shoot.

So who is to blame?  Is Miley old enough to be responsible for her actions and decision to pose a certain way with or without clothing?

Do you think Miley is just a few short years behind becoming the next has- been pop idol disaster?
