Miley Cyrus’ new under the sheets ‘Adore You’ video: artistic or still trashy?

Miley Cyrus

This is a photo that Miley Cyrus posted on Twitter, and I’ve got no idea what’s happening here. She’s sporting the red-eye effect and some … vampire teeth? I’m going to take this photo as an indication that Miley is getting it on with Kellan Lutz after their little joint private jet ride last week. Kellan has been curiously spotted at a few Jingle Balls around the country, and Miley’s been twerking at all of them. Kellan tried to stamp out rumors by bragging to X17, “I’m happily single.” However this week’s issue of Us Weekly says the pair has been doing it for weeks: “Kellan is having a fling with Miley. He’s nice eye candy for her.” Well she certainly has a type.

Miley’s latest video for the “Adore You” single leaked one day early on Christmas. The video is actually clean enough that we can show it here, but that’s not necessarily good news for Miley, who needs a gimmick. Here she is wearing a nude-colored bra and underwear and frolicking by herself under the sheets. The video is suggestive but tame by Miley standards:

What do you think? Miley’s trying to play the “sure, you already saw me naked on a wrecking ball, but please stick around and listen to my voice” card. I think this video might have been worthy of comment in mid 2013. She’s trying to be sexy by feeling herself up and chewing on gauzy sheets. Now that we’ve seen her go full monty, it’s so boring. Which is sad.

    0:27 that’s when I stopped: Her voice is so crappy!

    Press play and then let me know when ya’ll cry uncle

    • Anastasia says:

      I really tried, but 48 seconds was the longest I could listen. I first wanted to turn it off at 4 seconds, when she starts that weird moan-“singing” thing. The music isn’t good, either.

    • Evelyn says:

      :30. I might have to go to bed, wake up and start my day over, because that voice ruins days

    • Cristina says:

      Just when I wanted to challenge myself and watch the video (a part of it I mean) it’s gone. I take this as a sign that this is not something worth watching :))
      Also, what is she doing in that first photo?! That’s a crazy/horrible pose.

    • BeerayadnBe says:

      “This video has been removed by the user”

      Well, that’s welcome news this morning.

  2. Cleveland Girl says:

    That picture is gross. She looks like she is sitting on a toilet. And that video??? So boring I turned it off after 15 seconds.

  3. Dani says:

    Isn’t there a way to free yourself from your Disney image besides being trashy, naked, and obnoxious? I don’t understand why she’s still at this whole, I’m a rebel hear me roar thing. She could do a lot if she just acted like a sane individual.

    • QQ says:

      There is but ALL THE ATTENTION THEY NEED TO LIIIIVVE wont be supplied.. And you know that is a problem to these folks

    • Leila in wunderland says:

      There are other ways, but they probably seem boring to someone who’s seeking attention, loves nudity, and wants so badly to rebel against being’ ladylike.’

    • Tiffany :) says:

      It is absurd that she thinks she is a rebel, when she is following the same old script for former childstars. Using sexuality to rebel is so predictable (didn’t Jamie Foxx actually predict this a few years ago?) There are so many other ways to suprise people and remind them that you are not who they assume you are. This chapter of her career is a tired cliche.

    • aquarius64 says:

      If Miley is choosing this way to express herself then she accepts the consequences and don’t whine about her critiques on social media. That is, don’t say ANYTHING about it; commenting to the press proves it gets under her skin, no matter how much she fronts.

    • St says:

      Selena Gomez could do it without trashing her own image and losing dignity. She had few hits and now is solid B star. But Miley wants to be A-list star. On the level with Britney, Rihanna, Katy, Pink. And in her eyes this is the only way she can do it.

      • IzzyB says:

        But Selena will have a solid B/C list career because parents love her. Apart from her poor judgement with Bieber (we’ve all dated someone we can’t think about without cringing) I can’t think of anything bad she’s been involved in.

        People don’t want their kids to go to Mileys concerts and see her grind her hooha on anything that stays still long enough.

    • Leila in wunderland says:

      @Tiffany: That’s true. In her quest to rebel against the idea of being ‘ladylike’ and whatever, (which she seems to feel is restrictive and unfair, and I don’t exactly disagree with her on that)she has conformed to the idea of pop stars using sexuality and nudity in order to be edgy. But to her it’s probably all worth it.

  4. Kiddo says:

    I didn’t watch the video in order to hear the music without distractions. There are times when she sounds like Rhianna on autotune. It’s not terrible. The song is okay, but mediocre. I don’t know if it will grow on me, meh.

  5. Paige says:

    I thought she fixed her teeth?

  6. Jayna says:

    I love this song. The video is a bore.

  7. Nina says:

    its basically a sex tape with a trashy filter on it. artistically, i sort of understand where she’s coming from, but i still don’t think it’s necessary. miley is always talking about how she’s “such a feminist” and “teaching young girls not to cover themselves up” and i think that’s great. i also admire her for the fact that she’s not ashamed of herself in any way, that she’s just so unapologetically herself she’s comfortable with the world seeing her bits and bobs but again- i dont think it’s neccessary. i want her to sell her music without selling herself at the same time, just like for example ed sheeran does. he’s a 22 year old male in the music industry, that sings about girls and isn’t naked ever, not in his videos and not on stage. he’s all about the music. and i would like to see miley do that as well. but then again, if she want to do what she’s doing right now, by all means, she should. i just think she’s so much better than that.
    i dont feel like this song is going to be big at all. it’s boring as hell and the video is freaky. not a good combo.

    • Dee-Anne says:

      Thing is, Ed Sheeran is an amazing singer. Whereas, Miley is not.
      It’s like comparing tofu, to a steak. (No offence to those that like it)
      I mean, i’ve been to one of his concerts, most of the time, it’s just him and his guitar, he has fun, and makes sure the crowd does as well. And I loved it.
      Miley… well, you know.

    • aquarius64 says:

      That’s her problem with her expressing herself. She’s now perceived as nothing but an on-going T & A show with no musical talent to back it up. The majority of news articles about her is mainly about what outrageously sexually explicit act she’s done now. The music pertaining to her is an afterthought. Not all publicity is good publicity…being shut out of AMA and Grammy nominations are examples of that. The press follows Miley primarily for being tabloid fodder (namely to being the suspected jump-off to various men in the entertainment industry.) As far as they are concern, that’s all she’s good for.

  8. j.eyre says:

    She just does not know what sexy is, does she?

    • Maureen says:

      +1

      She really doesn’t. There’s no bigger turn off than a person who thinks they’re sexy but they’re not, or a dumb person who thinks they’re smart.

    • I'm With The Band says:

      I’ve just realised that Miley is in fact a comedian. I mean, I laughed at this video. She pulls off unsexy so well with that hilarious bottom lip pulling business and all the rolling around as though she’s trying to alleviate period pain. Funny girl.

  9. Renee says:

    Poor messed up Miley

  10. MyOp says:

    Miley cannot sing without Autotune or Melodyne let’s face it she is Disney trained. I read a recent trade paper 100% of Pop singers use computer enhanced vocals. It’s a shame even some of Ariana’s work is manipulated and she along with Beyonce can really sing as well as Bruno Mars.
    The music industry needs to wake up and Stop using a computer to create singers.
    In 5 years Miley will be gone and None of her music will be remembered along with Gomez, Bieber, RiRi, Brown, Drake etc….

    • Paige says:

      You think she’ll get 5 years????
      Even Larry Rudolph won’t be able to pull that off..
      And I know I couldn’t take it.

    • TheOneandOnlyOnly says:

      Yes, just remember the Spice Girls were bigger, much more enjoyable for pop, and who remembers or plays them?

  11. Flea says:

    Why you hating on Miley?

  12. zan says:

    Disgusting and depressing

  13. Leila in wunderland says:

    For me this is the wrong song to release as a single. It won’t sell because it’s way too boring, and goes on and on. She should have done either Someone else (one of my favorites off the album) or Drive, which probably would have been more popular because it’s the one about Liam.

    And even though part of me thinks pairing a love song with a video like this is kind of sweet, the video itself is boring. It’s just close-ups of her and almost nothing in the white background.

    • JudithButler says:

      YES. THIS ^ why not drive, or lovemoneyparty, getitright, handsintheair, rooting for my baby, or someone else. i’m over the sexualization of miley – but those are damn good songs.

      my prediction? she’s going to “get caught” making out or sexing another girl. THAT IS THE ONLY “SCANDAL” left since we know what her uterus looks like.

  14. Maureen says:

    Still with the tongue fetish, I see. *sigh* This ridiculous little girl.

  15. Ruyana says:

    I am amazed that I can find her pitiful and nauseating all at the same time.

  16. St says:

    Well this wasn’t “Oh my God. That is ridiculously bad” like Wrecking Ball was. This was just boringly bad. Same uncomfortable thing over and over again. Just like it is every time when Miley is naked – it feels uncomfortable for everyone. And this boring and uncomfortable video is going and going and is not ending. It was hard to watch it one time. There is no way I will force myself to watch it another. Someone needs to tell Miley that she is not sexy and that no one finds her sexy.

    Remember how Miley joke about “turned on fathers” on SNL? She totally doesn’’t know that no one find her sexy and that people laugh at her attempts to look sexy. It’s kind of even sad that Miley thinks that the only way she can stay in the press and in charts is when she will do something provocative sexy. Trashy sex is literally her only way on top. That’s how Miley sees the world. And so people will be shocked and will talk about it for weeks. So she tries to pull off same trick she did with Wrecking Ball. It worked once – it will not work twice. Because there is nothing more she can do to outshock Wrecking Ball. And that song was really good. While Adore You is plain out boring. People will forget about this video by tomorrow.

    So all of this looks like cheap attempt to recreate Wrecking Ball success. Miley wants to stay on top so desperately. It will be so hard for her to fall.

  17. Jassy says:

    I don’t know, I kind of like that it’s soft and sensual and she’s feeling herself up thinking about the person the song is about. Nothing wrong with a woman pleasuring herself, it’s not like this was some scandalous out-there video or something. I like it.

  18. Asdfg says:

    I laughed. HARD.

    Very few could have pulled that video off. Miley’s not one of them. Miley doesn’t know how sexy works for her yet. She has sexy potential she just needs to stop trying so desperately.

    • Paige says:

      I don’t agree that there is potential. Not by a mile….and really she should NOT FOCUS on HER MOUTH or put her fingers in it..now I can’t eat for the rest of the day.

      • Asdfg says:

        HA! I agree about the putting her fingers in her mouth situation. That’s gross. Lindsay Lohan does the same when she poses for pictures. It’s not sexy. It’s gross.

        Yeah, I don’t know about sexy potential now, she did have the potential though. Before she decided she was hot stuff.

  19. Chofe says:

    She is so high that is uncomfortable. Some things should remain private.

  20. Mariah says:

    Video should have ended with a facial. That is all.

  21. Patricia says:

    What is up with the whole pulling on the bottom lip thing, and rubbing the inside of her bottom lip on the sheets, and just everything with the mouth is strange and seems like she’s rolling (like, high on E and it feels good to her to play with her lip like that so she thinks it therefore looks sexy). And the face rubbing is very strange too. Nice try but it’s all just too uncomfortable. I mean, does anyone find all the strange lip-play to be sexy? Anyone?! Start over, Miley!

  22. Gorgonia says:

    I see I’m not the only one to think this girl is not sexy at all. The problem is not her morality or ethics (her own business), but the very fact she believes to be a sex bomb, while she’s sloppy and ridiculous, she believes to be a rebel while she is so conformist … She seems to live in a little twisted reality.

    • Kiddo says:

      Definitely a conformist. The video seems to want to disguise the fact that the song is very bland, instantly forgettable.

  23. hateonit. says:

    Id like her to grow her hair back immediately. Oh. And stop trying to be sexy. Why doesn’t she get if you’re sexy you don’t have to try. Her and leann rimes. Unattractive females who can’t take a hint….gross video. The end.

  24. Asdfg says:

    Soft spot for Miley, maybe?

  25. Just as well says:

    “This video has been removed by the user”

    I guess it’s for the best then.

  26. MourningTheDeathOfMusic says:

    Dragging her fingers over her mouth like that (at the start of the video) wasn’t sexually appealing or even attractive. Why wear a see through bra? Especially since they then had to blur it all out. NOT that I wanted to see it… Lord there isn’t enough bleach that would be able to scrub out that image. It’s simply her (failed) attempt at further shock value. “Oh, she’s wearing a sheer bra, how edgy…” – I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. That girl (I’ll be damned if I will give her the honor of being deemed a woman) needs to sit down, shut up, and get herself an education.

  27. vvvoid says:

    Pulling your bottom lip down to your chin doesn’t trick people into thinking you have Angelina Jolie’s lips. Jesus Miley, you look like a r—–ded toddler. You can’t get raunchy sexy right and you can’t get subtle sexy right. You just look thirsty.
    I do think she does a bunch of molly before shooting these videos. Hence the massive pupils (a lot of molly feels just like speed, is often cut with meth). So that explains why she looks so awkward. But my god, the directors and editors could at least do her the favor of cutting away instead of lingering endlessly upon every drawn out, gawky gyration or lip bite.
    Rihanna gives Miley false hope. She can be overexposed, trashy, ridiculous and still extremely, impossibly sexy. Miley doesn’t have that same natural allure. She’s just uncomfortable to watch.
