Cyrus Still Hurt After Photo Scandal

Miley Cyrus is still healing after the Vanity Fair magazine photo scandal which threatened her status as America’s top teen star.The 15-year-old singer was snapped topless, wearing just a bedsheet, by celebrity photographer Annie Leibowitz for the magazine’s June issue.

The photo provoked outrage – and Cyrus is still reeling from the public outcry about the candid photos.

Having weathered the storm, the Hannah Montana star admits she made a mistake in stripping off for Vanity Fair: “It still hurts when I think about it. I was embarrassed… but also it’s, like, every career thing that I do can’t be perfect, and sometimes my decisions are wrong.”

But she’s confident die-hard fans have forgiven her, and will learn to love her for her faults as well as her successes.

Cyrus adds, “I don’t think people will look at me any differently because they’re like, ‘You know what, I’m going to do stupid stuff too, and I’m going to make mistakes, and that’s fine.’”
