ABC/Randy Holmes(NOTE LANGUAGE) Miley Cyrus is taking back her apology from 2008 after a photo of her in Vanity Fair stirred a lot of controversy, according to Billboard.
Ten years ago, when Cyrus was 15, she posed for photographer Annie Leibovitz. One of the photos showed the young Disney star wrapped in a satin sheet and her back exposed. When the photo ran in Vanity Fair, it started a media frenzy.
In fact, the New York Post published a cover story with the words, “Miley’s Shame” in large, block letters. Underneath, the cover reads, “TV’s ‘Hannah’ apologizes for near-nude pic.”
On Sunday, the “Wrecking Ball”-singer tweeted that very same New York Post cover and wrote, “IM NOT SORRY. F*** YOU. #10yearsago.”
But, a decade earlier, Cyrus did attempt to apologize by issuing a statement in order to keep her wholesome image as a Disney star on Hannah Montana.
“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,” Cyrus said in a statement at the time. “I never intended for any of this to happen and I apologize to my fans who I care so deeply about.”
Cyrus went on to tweet less controversial throwback photos from her Hannah Montana days.
