She didn't name names, though? So I'll assume this is for Paula Abdul.

The thing is, these women are not lying. And of course they're doing it for attention, that's the point. But it doesn't matter because at the end of the day, they aren't making any money off of this and it does not take away from the fact that they're telling the truth. They know more about the industry than any of you.
But of course the people on here will blindingly side with Miley and call these women bitter, as if they have any reason to be bitter, especially Annie, she's a legend, a RESPECTED legend.

The ones that were attacking Sinead, I dare them now to try Annie, even though she didn't say the name, but you know it is about Miley

I have to say that I'm disturbed and dismayed by the recent spate of overtly sexualised performances and videos. You know the ones I'm talking about. It seems obvious that certain record companies are peddling highly styled ****ography with musical accompaniment. As if the tidal wave of sexualised imagery wasn't already bombarding impressionable young girls enough..I believe in freedom of speech and expression, but the market forces don't give a toss about the notion of boundaries. As long as there's booty to make money out of, it will be bought and sold. It's depressing to see how these performers are so eager to push this new level of low.Their assumption seems to be that misogyny- utilised and displayed through oneself is totally fine, as long as you are the one creating it. As if it's all justified by how many millions of dollars and U tube hits you get from behaving like pimp and prostitute at the same time. It's a glorified and monetized form of self harm.

I tried to be carefully measured with my comments on yesterday's blog, realising that the subject clearly courts controversy and divisiveness. On reflection I will say that sexuality is an inherent and profound part of life. There is absolutely nothing "wrong" about our sexuality or sensuality per se - But if a performing artist has an audience of impressionable young fans and they want to present a soft **** video or highly sexualised live performance, then it needs to qualify as such and be X rated for adults only. I'm talking from the perspective of the parents of those young fans. The whole thing is about their children's protection. Is it appropriate for seven year olds to be thrusting their pelvises like pole dancers? I really don't think so. Boundaries need to be put in place so that young kids aren't barraged by market forces exploiting the "normalisation" of explicit sex in under age entertainment. That means - no audiences under 18. Simple! Well - not quite. The Internet has put paid to "boundaries" and "simple".

Sounds like Blurred Lines shade to me.

I agree, legitimate criticism of miley is being disregarded as jealousy or trying to get attention from her name, its ridiculous.

I know they're partly right, but I'm glad you admitted they're doing it for promo, which is more sad than Miley's behaviour.

I love MIley and her new music but I do agree with some of what both Annie and Sinead are saying

At this point in her career, I don't think Annie Lenox needs promo...

I see her point but it's a tiring expression considering these artists are adults and can do whatever they want to. And if being a pimp and a ho at the same time is how they make they're living, who are you to say it's wrong?
Talk to the parents who aren't in control of what they're kids are watching. It's all about the parenting dude, these artists have nothing to do with what your kid is learning from. If they're learning from the artist, obviously, you as a parent, aren't doing your job.

Well she makes a point to say that with the prominence Internet these days, parents are in far less control of what their children can and can't watch, and artists and record companies know that and take advantage of that fact.

Annie seems a little unhinged.
Comparing sexy Youtube videos to "self harm" and "prostitution" is such hyperbole.
