Miley Cyrus, the star of "Hannah Montana" series, which is the most successful teen comedy of Disney Channel is under fire for few controversial snaps of her published in the internet. Miley Cyrus, even though she is only 15 years, is so popular and her image is displayed from TV screen to cloths and many other products.

Miley says that she though the photo shoot would be an artistic one, but in course of time she has learned a hard lesson that what is artistic for some may become controversial for others. The controversial snaps include images of the star wrapped in a satin bed sheet, looking over her shoulder with her back exposed.

The pictures also accompany an interview with Miley's father, singer Billy Ray Cyrus. The photoshoot was part of a Vanity Fair photo. The photo, one of a series taken by famed photographer Annie Leibovitz, comes on the heels of Internet photos in which the young star flashes her midriff and a green bra.

Miles was the role model to millions of young fans for her clean, good girl image apologized for the controversial images and told "sorry that my portrait has been misinterpreted". She also expressed embarrassment on the images.

But Vanity Fair revealed that Cyrus initially had no problem at all with the photo shoot and when it became a buzz and created controversy, she turned her face against it and started blaming the Vanity Fair for the snaps.

The photos have set her way from a good girl to a sexualized teen. However, she alone can't be blamed as she is just 15, and Vanity Fair , who is national publication has to be accused of publishing semi nude photos of a young girl.

Some sources revealed that the publication had created a situation deliberately to manipulate the 15-year-old in order to sell magazines. But Vanity Fair defended it's position telling "Miley's parents and minders were on the set all day." "Since the photo was taken digitally, they saw it on the shoot and everyone thought it was a beautiful and natural portrait of Miley."
