Miley Cyrus, growing up too soon, or just doing a little harmless teenage boundary pushing? At the moment it’s a hot topic of conversation, and Yahoo Music Blogs decided to find out where 80’s pop idols, Debbie Gibson and Tiffany would weigh in on the debate.
Who have been there as two ladies, and know what Miley is going through, Debbie (who now goes by Deborah, being all grown up herself) and Tiffany have strong opinions on the subject. And, true to their 80’s pop rivalry roots, very different opinions at that.
Tiffany believes that Miley is stepping into a more mature image “appropriately,” thanks to guidance from her parents Billy Ray Cyrus and Cindy Cyrus. According to Tiffany, Miley’s more risqué outfit choices, songs and behavior (like faking a sultry kiss with a back up dancer during her performance on “Britain’s Got Talent”) is all part of a well managed attempt to move into a market that is all about “pop-star-as-sex-symbol.”
Deborah Gibson, on the other hand, praises the young star’s talent and easy going attitude, but thinks that her new image is “a little too much too soon.” Gibson wishes that Miley would realize that childhood is worth embracing, and not push her’s away.
For those of you enjoying pleasant 80’s high school flashbacks thanks to the names “Tiffany” and “Debbie Gibson” you may want to check out the SyFy channel’s upcoming “Mega Python vs. Gataroid. Gibson and Tiffany are pairing up again as the stars of the film, this time they’ll be doing battle with a pair of giant mutant monsters, rather than battling each other on the pop charts.
