Miley Cyrus Becomes New Paparazzi Target

15-Year-Old Star Becomes Most Popular Paparazzi Target In Los Angeles

March 27. 2008

According to various reports teen star, Miley Cyrus, 15, has become a new paparazzi favorite. It appears she has been going out more frequently and it is diverting the photographers attention away from their regular, former child star targets. 

Miley Cyrus

Miley, real name Destiny, is the daughter of country music singer Billy Ray Cyrus of "Achy Breaky Heart" fame. She is the star of the popular kids TV show "Hannah Montana."

This year, Miley's wholesome television image was shaken up somewhat by the release of photos she took of herself posing in her bra and underwear (Miley, stop doing that  - in this digital age, predators don't care and it will end up online). These photos made their way onto the internet and apparently without permission. Said photos that appeared on several blogs should have been removed immediately, due to the fact she is a minor.

Recently, the television show South Park parodied Miley being the next paparazzi and press target and the terrible effect it will have on her. Cyrus' parents need to be very vigilant in monitoring her activities, in the hopes their daughter does not go the way of many a child star.

The Cyrus family have stated they are Christians, which is great, but they must be mindful of the lure and pull of Hollywood regarding sex, drugs, alcohol and cults, and how it has devastated many a young life.
