Miley Cyrus Rescinds Apology for Controversial Photoshoot

Ten years ago, Cyrus appeared semi-naked on the cover of Vanity Fair, but she has no apologies for it now.

Back in her Hannah Montana days, the then 15-year-old found herself surrounded by controversy after critics deemed her photoshoot for Vanity Fair too scandalous. For the notorious cover, Cyrus posed topless with only a white sheet covering her.

She then issued a statement to PEOPLE apologizing for the photo.

“My goal in my music and my acting is always to make people happy. For Vanity Fair, I was so honored and thrilled to work with Annie [Leibovitz]. I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be ‘artistic’ and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed. The pictures of me on the internet were silly, inappropriate shots…I never intended for any of this to happen and I am truly sorry if I have disappointed everyone,” Cyrus said.

But, in a recent tweet, she took back her apology.

Cyrus is no longer backing down when it comes to her work and artistry.
