Dolly Parton is not
a fan of Miley Cyrus’
raunchy new image
and fears the young
star is “surrounded”
by advisers who are
steering her career in
the wrong direction,
WENN reports
November 24th,
2010.
.
.
The country legend has known
Cyrussince she was a baby and
has previously labelled the
18-year-old singer/actress
her “honorary goddaughter”.
.
.
The Hannah Montana star has shed
her clean-cut image in recent months,
wearing increasingly saucy outfits
and shocking fans with provocative
stage performances.
.
.
Parton is adamant she hasn’t
“encouraged” the youngster to
flash the flesh,
and fears Cyrus may be getting
bad advice from her managers.
.
.
She tells Larry King,
“Hopefully she didn’t get that from
me because I certainly never
encouraged her to do any of that…
I think she’s just in a cross –
she’s just kind of in a crosswinds
trying to overcome the Hannah
Montana little girl,
and trying to become
a young woman…
I don’t know if she’s surrounded by
people that are helping (her to) not
make the wise decisions…”
.
.
And Parton is worried show business
is becoming increasing tough on
young girls like Cyrus,
adding:
“I think this day and time life
is hard for young people,
certainly young girls…
The world is just…
you just can’t flaunt enough.”
.
“You can’t just do enough.
You can’t just talk trashy
enough or dress trashy enough.
It seems to be like if you don’t do
that you’re not in the in crowd.”
.
.
“So I think that there’s a lot of
pressure just on young people
in general and I think they put
a lot of pressure on themselves…”
.
.
But the 9 To 5 hitmaker remains
hopeful the former Disney star will
grow out of her rebellious ways:
.
.
“I’m hoping that Miley
is going to be just fine.”
.
.
“I know she’s very gifted and I love
her dearly and if she ever needs me
I’ll do everything I can to help her
in any way that I can.
So I think we should just
let her grow up.”
