Weeks
ago, I read with amusement as many people pilloried Miley Cyrus for her
risque performance at the VMA Awards. It reminded me of the crazy
things Madonna did when she was younger, just to get attention! Well,
Miley got what she wanted, her first #1 song in the US Billboard charts,
which I think was really her goal. Sometimes all that overt sexuality
shown in their videos are just to sell records
and not really who they are as people. Cautionary tale. Two decades
ago, people thought Madonna was the dirty slut for doing risque videos
while Whitney Houston was the nightingale who could no wrong. See what
happened two decades later. Who was found dead in a bathtub of a drug
overdose and who became a billionairess? Sometimes, the 'malandi' image
an artist projects is just that, an image they want to project but they
really live 'clean' lives. Sometimes, kung sino pa yung 'di makabasag
pinggan' ang image, yun pa ang totoong durugista.
