The Pervading Influence of Uncle Tom's Cabin in Pop Culture - Holly L. Derr - The Atlantic - 0 views

  •  
    An argument that Miley Cryus's VMA performance was (though unintentionally) a minstrel show that echoes the minstrelsy of the 19th century, especially performances of "Uncle Tom's Cabin." This is a heritage that we carry with us from theatre, and plays out in hollywood, such as "Orange Is the New Black" character Crazy Eyes.

Miley Cyrus Interview - 1 views

  •  
    I found this article really interesting because it gave an insight into Miley Cyrus herself and how she feels about her transformation rather than the hundreds of articles judging her without any context of Cyrus' intention. I liked the quote, where Cyrus stated that changing her hair effected everyone else more than her, I think it put the media fascination in an interesting light.

Campus has to take down wrecking ball sculpture due to Miley's video - 0 views

  •  
    Similarly to the Robin Thicke's 'Blurred Lines' ban at a Scottish university an American university have removed a sculpture of a wrecking ball due to many parodies of Miley's now infamous 'wrecking ball' music video. Although it is noted that this was because of wear and tear of the structural cords.
  •  
    Too many people were making Miley Cyrus' Wrecking Ball parodies, so Grand Valley State University had to take down their sculpture. They are calling it a safety hazard. Do you think it is because they don't want the attention due to Miley's video drawn to their campus?

Wrecking Ball Parody by Greg James. - 0 views

  •  
    British Radio One DJ creates a parody of Miley Cyrus' Wrecking Ball. An interesting way of subverting the message of Cyrus' and its use of nudity.
  •  
    Personally, I think Miley Cyrus' video is very powerful, and this parody reinforces my feelings about that. It's definitely interesting to see a guy in her position, I won't deny it. I understand where everyone is coming from with the complaints about her nudity, but in my opinion, there's a much deeper meaning behind it.
