You’ve always had a bit of glamour and sex appeal to your stage persona. Do you have any thoughts on all the hubbub over Miley Cyrus? That she’s selling sex as much as she is the music?
I don’t know her personally. I don’t know why she’s doing what she’s doing. So, I don’t really have an opinion on that. But you’ve got to do what works for you. Being in that critical eye is a challenge in itself. If Miley is assessing what she’s doing, and saying “this is who I am,” then I say, do that. Hopefully she’s enjoying it.
Some of the concern has to do with her age.
I smile at young artists being young, finding themselves. I think youth is beautiful. I think finding yourself is beautiful and very necessary.
There’s also the idea that she’s being pressured to market herself in this way. Did you ever feel that kind of pressure, to sex it up?
I was always comfortable with what I was doing. Looking back, I never felt pressure to exploit myself. And I remain comfortable with it today. It would be horrific, looking back 20 years later, as I am now, and feeling embarrassed at what I did. I would never want to set myself up for that.

Smh Miley does not feel embarrassed about her Hannah days. I don't know where you people got this idea from. She clearly states in her Documentary, that she wouldn't be famous if it wasn't for Hannah so will never regret that
