Dead Body, Over My...

Now Miley Cyrus's nine-year-old sister launches risqué clothing line for pre-teens

Miley Cyrus's nine-year-old sister is set to raise eyebrows again with news she is launching a clothing line for children. Noah, who is not even high school age yet, is teaming up with best friend Emily Grace Reaves, eight, and Ooh! La, La! Couture designers for the project.

The two youngsters will release the 'trendy, sweet, yet edgy' designs in time for Valentine's Day. However, parents may raise an eyebrow or two at the grown-up nature of the slightly risqué designs.
Let me make one thing absolutely clear right now. This is one item backed by a member of the Cyrus clan that BabyGirl G. will not be getting. Ever. At least until she is no longer BabyGirl G. and has grown into full-adult Woman G. and is paying her own bills. Go take a look at the pics; while the first two are reasonably cute, the third set of pictures is what I am talking about.

Furthermore, any person - family member included - who gets her something from this line as any sort of gift will be excommunicated from my family. It's not funny, it's not a joke, and I will not allow this in my house. End of story. You want your elementary school-aged female child to walk around looking like a common whore before fourth grade, be my guest. But my daughter will not be a part of this.

I am not looking forward to the next 12 or so years...

That is all.

That makes me so glad to NOT have a daughter that age anymore! Heck my daughter is 25 and she wouldn't dress like that now!
What is wrong with the parents that they allow this crap to happen?

Bruce said...

WTF? Not even for Halloween.

If Billy Ray is getting his 15% management fee does that make him a pimp, whoreing out his daughters?

Jay G said...

Farmmom,

That's an excellent question. Personally, I trace it back to the whole "Bratz" craze a few years back (another trend that was banned in my house)...

Bruce,

Bingo. Not even.

Dave,

Given Billy Ray's previous shenanigans with Miley and the racy photos, I'm guessing there's not a lot he's not willing to do.

That is what the people who design this stuff want. Sex is not a sacred thing. Sex is a pastime. Sex is "impowerment". To whom? Sexualizing our children is just as twisted as pedophilia. Except Sexual brainwashing is profitable. And legal. Although a parent can move heaven and earth to shape his child's morals, there is a constant bombard of sexual behavior directed our kids. Liberals use this soakdown as a weapon. We parents only have our wallets and our value systems to fall back on. Make the most of it.

As I said on facebook the other day: the day my (hypothetical daughter) under the age of 18 goes out in public dressed like a hooker, I will be wearing a fucking toe tag.

Mike W. said...

Hell NO. That is just not appropriate clothing for little girls. Not even for 14-16 year olds.

Any parent who lets their pre-teen KID walk around dressed like that should be smacked.

Toaster 802,

I've also got a shotgun. And a chainsaw. And anyone who comes to my door expecting to see BabyGirl G. dressed like this stands a good chance of meeting one or t'other...

Caleb,

I'd even extend it to "living under my roof" (not just 18).

The good part is that, by raising your kids right, you won't have to worry about it.

Frex, I've been re-thinking my plan about cleaning a shotgun when BabyGirl G.'s boyfriend first comes to pick her up.

I think it would be *FAR* more instructive if BabyGirl G. were cleaning *HER* shotgun when the young man comes to pick her up...

:)

Mike W.,

Sadly, there are too many parents out there who will let their daughters dress this way. Some do it because they want to be their kid's friend; others because they can't say no; and still others because they're too afraid of damaging the self-esteem of their precious little flower.

Fortunately, I know that my job is to be their parent, not their friend; I say no so much I should be Dr. No; and my kids have plenty of experience to bolster their self esteem that hearing "OH HELL NO" from dad won't damage it...

I look at think photo and think pedo bait.

I call it the MTV affect. When they used to be a music video station it was all about sleaze. Especially with the rap/hip hop sludge vids. Women as objectified whores. That laid the groundwork for the mainstreaming of ever younger girls into the titilation marketing we see now. Good tough love parenting is the only counter-balance. When MTV came to visit us in Lake Havasu one year for spring break I was astounded. Jr. high age girls in thongs. Some with their mothers alongside, bumpin' and grindin' away. And that was back in the mid 90's. Fifteen years later, I guess 10 is the new 18.

Stretch said...

The same people who would buy such clothing would undoubtedly report your to Child Services for teaching Baby Girl G how to shoot.

Ditto. Good God, what happened to the world. Top one, she looks like an idiot, middle isn't too bad, bottom one, not even on halloween, not a chance in hell.

F'n MTV sludge and liberal bs.

Julie said...

I'ld actually like to see the clothes the kids actually designed, rather than what they've worn recently (which is my interpretation of the article).

Having said that, I have a very tall 8 y.o. (in size 12/14) and I get very frustrated trying to find non-sexualised clothes for her to wear!

Pretty girly clothes seem to stop at size 7 these days.

I knew it was bad when the first thing that popped in my head when I saw the third set of pictures was, "oh look, they're going to marketing a My Little Hooker doll soon."

WTF man? That's just sick and scary what they're doing.
