Miley Cyrus... why?

I find the term "handlers" amusing. To me it sounds like she is a wild animal. Are the people with her really called handlers?

Yes, but that isn't what we were arguing about (at least it was not what I was arguing about).

As it is, we're not arguing about it anymore.

Somewhat OT: I got in trouble for using that word, back in 1984. I was running security for an event, and Wings Hauser's "handler" got sick, so I subbed in. I drove him around, got him to his appointments on time, make sure he got the amenities his contract called for, etc. There was no hesitation using the term amongst us -- the producers, the organizers, the security personnel, and the handlers etc. -- but I casually introduced myself as his substitute handler and he went ballistic. He obviously hates the word. I suppose I would too. I suppose Disney would Disneyfy the word, calling the handlers "hosts" or something like that.

I don't know if this has already been mentioned, but does anyone feel like Billy Ray tries to use his daughter to promote his own career?

I've said that before... amazing how his career took off again when hers did

It does seem a bit swarmy.

She's topless. How can you argue with that?

I'll argue w/that using the definitions of topless:

As the name implies, you will be expected to remove your top and the full tatas will be exposed.
www.socalpromodels.com/definitions.shtml

having no top; "a topless jar"
bare-tata'ed: having the tatas uncovered or featuring such nudity; "topless waitresses"; "a topless cabaret"

Being topless or bare chested means not wearing any clothing above the waist, exposing the entire torso. The term "topless" is in general only applied to women, though it can be applied to men. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topless

Once again ... is Miley bare chested? Is her entire torso exposed? Does she have something on above the waist? Nooo ... she is draped in cloth. While it's not a blouse, shirt or top, she is by definition not topless. She is not fully exposed from the waist up w/her tatas showing.

Note: on the definitions, I changed the correct female anatomy word to "tatas" b/c I didn't want to get points.
