Teen idol and worst celebrity influence Miley Cyrus, 16, has confessed she doesn’t want her fans to idolize her. She’d be happy if she could only be seen as a role model for her young fans and not somebody they want to replicate. No Miley Cyrus wannabes, please!
If you look at me as a role model I agree with it. If you look at me as an idol, I don’t agree. An idol for me is someone that you want to replicate. You want to be them. I don’t wish that on anyone, to lose what they have personally, because that’s when your spark goes,” teen singer-actress said.
No parent would like their child to copy Miley’s almost nude photoshoot in Vanity Fair at 15, her controversial bra pics on her blog, and pole dancing at 2009 Teen Choice Awards. As to me, “role model” doesn’t really look like the right word either.
What Miley’s young fans can copy from their teen idol is her desire to do charity work and help those less fortunate. Cyrus has recently confessed she can’t wait to go to Indonesia with a charity mission.
