Miley Cyrus Gets Buck Naked in Wrecking Ball Video
Certainly, there will be eyebrows and hackles raised from some conservative quarters at the latest music video of the ever-twerking, ever controversial Miley Cyrus.
The second single from her Bangerz album titled Wrecking Ball has almost 16 million views just less than a day of its release on Cyrus' VEVO page on YouTube. Terry Richardson, photographer for hottest fashion mags, directed the video. I wonder whose idea is it for Miley to straddle balls, er, wrecking ball with just her boots on.
Undoubtedly, the singer has matured in many ways. She sounds great here - angst and vulnerability is heard throughout the song. I would have given the video itself a thumbs-up had Miley kept her clothes on. I mean, does everything have to be sexualized nowadays to garner greatness? Oh, don't give me that bull about nudity as an extension of vulnerability, rawness of emotions, etcetera. I stopped digging for metaphors when Miley's blood-red lips appeared and started licking that sledgehammer.
