‘Nothing Compares 2 U‘ entertainer Sinead O’Connor has penned an open letter to ‘Can’t Be Tamed’ belle Miley Cyrus today, warning the would be bad girl of the danger she believes she is being lured into by those seeking to use her for their own personal gain.
Pop open the lid for Sinead’s kind yet chilling words below…
“Dear Miley,
I wasn’t going to write this letter, but today I’ve been dodging phone calls from various newspapers who wished me to remark upon your having said in Rolling Stone your Wrecking Ball video was designed to be similar to the one for Nothing Compares… So this is what I need to say… And it is said in the spirit of motherliness and with love.
I am extremely concerned for you that those around you have led you to believe, or encouraged you in your own belief, that it is in any way ‘cool’ to be naked and licking sledgehammers in your videos. It is in fact the case that you will obscure your talent by allowing yourself to be pimped, whether it’s the music business or yourself doing the pimping.
Nothing but harm will come in the long run, from allowing yourself to be exploited, and it is absolutely NOT in ANY way an empowerment of yourself or any other young women, for you to send across the message that you are to be valued (even by you) more for your sexual appeal than your obvious talent.
I am happy to hear I am somewhat of a role model for you and I hope that because of that you will pay close attention to what I am telling you.
The music business doesn’t give a s*** about you, or any of us. They will prostitute you for all you are worth, and cleverly make you think it’s what YOU wanted… and when you end up in rehab as a result of being prostituted, ‘they’ will be sunning themselves on their yachts in Antigua, which they bought by selling your body and you will find yourself very alone.
None of the men oggling you give a s*** about you either, do not be fooled. Many’s the woman mistook lust for love. If they want you sexually that doesn’t mean they give a f*** about you. All the more true when you unwittingly give the impression you don’t give much of a f*** about yourself, and when you employ people who give the impression they don’t give much of a f*** about you either. No one who cares about you could support your being pimped… and that includes you yourself.
Yes, I’m suggesting you don’t care for yourself. That has to change. You ought be protected as a precious young lady by anyone in your employ and anyone around you, including you. This is a dangerous world. We don’t encourage our daughters to walk around naked in it because it makes them prey for animals and less than animals, a distressing majority of whom work in the music industry and its associated media.
You are worth more than your body or your sexual appeal. The world of showbiz doesn’t see things that way, they like things to be seen the other way, whether they are magazines who want you on their cover, or whatever… Don’t be under any illusions.. ALL of them want you because they’re making money off your youth and your beauty… which they could not do except for the fact your youth makes you blind to the evils of show business. If you have an innocent heart you can’t recognise those who do not.
I repeat, you have enough talent that you don’t need to let the music business make a prostitute of you. You shouldn’t let them make a fool of you either. Don’t think for a moment that any of them give a flying f*** about you. They’re there for the money… we’re there for the music. It has always been that way and it will always be that way. The sooner a young lady gets to know that, the sooner she can be REALLY in control.
You also said in Rolling Stone that your look is based on mine. The look I chose, I chose on purpose at a time when my record company were encouraging me to do what you have done. I felt I would rather be judged on my talent and not my looks. I am happy that I made that choice, not least because I do not find myself on the proverbial rag heap now that I am almost 47 years of age… which unfortunately many female artists, who have based their image around their sexuality, end up on when they reach middle age.
Real empowerment of yourself as a woman would be to in future refuse to exploit your body or your sexuality in order for men to make money from you. I needn’t even ask the question… I’ve been in the business long enough to know that men are making more money than you are from you getting naked. It’s really not at all cool. And it’s sending dangerous signals to other young women. Please in future say no when you are asked to prostitute yourself. Your body is for you and your boyfriend. It isn’t for every spunk-spewing dirtbag on the net, or every greedy record company executive to buy his mistresses diamonds with.
As for the shedding of the Hannah Montana image.. whoever is telling you getting naked is the way to do that does absolutely NOT respect your talent, or you as a young lady. Your records are good enough for you not to need any shedding of Hannah Montana. She’s waaaaaaay gone by now… Not because you got naked but because you make great records.
Whether we like it or not, us females in the industry are role models and as such we have to be extremely careful what messages we send to other women. The message you keep sending is that it’s somehow cool to be prostituted… it’s so not cool Miley… it’s dangerous. Women are to be valued for so much more than their sexuality. we aren’t merely objects of desire. I would be encouraging you to send healthier messages to your peers… that they and you are worth more than what is currently going on in your career. Kindly fire any motherf***er who hasn’t expressed alarm, because they don’t care about you.”
MILEY KNOW WTF SHE DOING I WISH PEOPLE WOULD FALL BACK
You are no fan of Queen Aubriana so just stop.
Time for Miley to stop giving shout out. to everybody.
Sinead O’Connor ripped a picture of the Pope back in her wild days on live TV. She ain’t no saint. Bye Felicia
Miley tried the normal thing with “can’t be tamed” and it flopped. I don’t condone everything she does now, but at least she tried to be that girl everybody wants her to be but no one was paying attention.
I believe Miley is a smart girl like Christina Aguilera was at the same age. She will know where to stop when the time will come.

I know you are mad that nobody cares about Gaga and are giving all the attention to Puppetly Cyrus.
Poor Gaga, nobody has a damn to give about her new era.
True dat
You’ve never head of Sinead because you think music didn’t exist before Lady Over Think Think.
And all y’all stay pressed over Gaga when Cake wasn’t even throwing shade… And sorry to break it to u but Miley is getting press for all the wrong reasons.(to the Miley bandwagoners) Lmao. So enjoy it while it lasts…
heard*
The illiteracy, smdh
After watching her Miley the movement special its obvious she knows what shes doing + she has a great team behind her.
Miley your a s***, but i like you.
OH and i aint reading that long ass s***!
H** YOU ARE DELUSIONAL.
Its too late man…
same.
Miley is a grown woman she can do whatever she wants.
Miley Cyrus is just desperate to get some attention.
She has no ass, she can barely sing or dance. The only thing she is good at is acting.
People need to leave Miley alone where they this pressed when Xtina was going thru her dirty era?
Somewhere Gaga is seething because hardly anyone talks about her anymore since Miley came and stole her thunder .
True candy boo
Lol at nicki fans constantly throwing shade at Gaga the past couple of days. Y’all must feel some type of way ur fave stop getting attention and peaked long before Gaga. A completely different topic of a long ass letter and all that came to ur mind was Gaga instead of how Nicki is going to revive her career after all those flop ass features in 2012…
Btw wrecking ball is such an amazing heartfelt song>>
If you don’t know who Sinead O’Connor is I feel sorry for you.
Second of all, if you think Miley is the one behind her craziness you are stupid. She is being told what to do by management and she THINKS she is control because she is agreeing to it.
Why do we think she’s slaying just because she’s found a way to shock people. She’s not shocking us by making music that’s ground breaking or ‘different’, she’s literally shocking people by licking objects, posing naked and saying she enjoys drugs.
What she doesn’t know is that as soon as her label sniff the first sense of disinterest in her they will kick her to the curb.
Clearly, most of the people here are too young to know what usually happens to performers like Miley but as soon who just turned 24, i have seen most of my fave t*** acts turn into complete shadows of themselves because they believed their own hype and didn’t invest in substantial things like their voices, or the quality of their music.
That’s why I can respect Rihanna a little. She can be tacky but her music is really good and WILL stand the test of time.
But your name though…Same could be said for your fav too. Her music isn’t great, or ground breaking! She shocks us with her stripper moves, and stunts. If beyonce were to not gyrate her p**** around a stage, and throw her 30 inch weave around would the people still be checking for her?? Oh yeah not all us are fortunate enough to have had a pimp father to do dirt for us.
Hands you a pink slip…B**** you fired! Now get the f*** out of here!
You sound stupid. Go read a book b****.
Oh another simp b****. Watch your mouth s***!
EXACTLY!
Girl you stan for a knowns thief stfu…. Miley is young and finding her way.
it’s true but miley in a position to push it in the safty of her fame. Miley knows what she is doing. there will be another after her and that’s willow.
Someone giving her advice and ya’ll saying she jealous?? No one is ever to old for advice..Miley is a grown woman but that doesn’t mean she can’t take advice from other artist. All you guys do is stan for sales and status but not the artist. For all we know Miley can be hurting on the inside. I SAW NO LIES IN THAT POST. She needs help.
Miley is young,rich, and white. If this fails the b**** will still be well off. She can take risk that other artist can’t, because she’s in the potions too! She knows this, this is exactly why she’s pushing it.
COrrection…**Position**
Excuse me, all jokes aside. Please don’t compare Beyonce to Miley. I put my stan card away to say that Beyonce is a classy woman even though she is a thief but she’s known for her talent unlike Miley, who is just a puppet.
Thank you for being fair sis.
Rihanna the biggest puppet tho so why are you talking?
Yet you happy for miley??? Miley stans Loco.
Yes im happy for Miley shes act the peak of her musical career shes not a s**** to the industry like Rihanna .
B**** you have to be stupid to think that MILEY is NOT a S****. Miley is already a s****. Don’t be stupid and delusional.
Oh h** please Miley just came off a 2 year break now shes ready to work sis when was the last time Rihoodrat got to take a 2 year break? #Oh
Miley will not last her shock value is just like gaga no one will give a f*** soon haters need to realize the difference with them and ri say what u want rihanna fenty has style her body is s*** whether you like her singing or not she is good to look at beautiful complexion miley is like paint dry chicken bottom trying too hard to be grown and s*** she looks crackish with her tongue sticking it takes more than a voice these days people want something to look at s** appeal sells which they have none like ri do
Gaga has hardly ever had “shock value”. She’s just got attention for being weird and eccentric as an artist just like Kanye West. Ppl pay more attention to sexuality than they do deep artistry which is y no one pays Marilyn Manson that much attention anymore….also Miley was a Disney star so it is gonna rub ppl more about her antics than Gaga who started her antics as a grown woman…
Classy women? When? off stage? Or on? or nah
We have at least one person that is being fair.
Thanks someone is real for a chance
He sounds bitter . Mad you cant show off your saggy OLD body? Kiiii F*** OFF MILEY IS THAT B**** RIGHT NOW NO ONE CANT TOUCH HER… PEOPLE NEED TO LEAVE MY SIS ALONE NO ONE GOES THIS HARD ON RIHANNA OR XTINA WHEN THEY HAVE DONE THE SAME S*** .
Miley is my inspiration and idol shes her self an is unapologetic about it.
the h** is a flop and her music sucks.
7k tho
H** HUSH! MILEY WILL NEVER HAVE MORE SUCCESSFUL ALBUM THAN LOOSE. tHIS >>> MILEY AND HER ENTIRE DISCOGRAPHY
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88dLLDrVOwg
Lets stop living in the past sis kiiii
I remember when everyone thought Britney was ‘just being herself’ or ‘growing up’ too. Since the bulk of the stans on here were probably still in pyjamas during the Black Out era I’m not surprised you can’t see the signs.
Beyonce is not that good of a singer! On her highest note, i swear big bird in full effect. Don’t act like she not a stripper with mic
Your mom looks so pretty in your avi.
Delusion in full effect AND how did the post get about BEYONCE? You’re just keeping Beyoncé more relevant than your fave by talking about her all the time.
@ Ciara Flop fan
BOo b****! Throws a dollar at you! Go support your fav how you let her flop that hard though??
As my nana always tells me, the PROOF is in the pudding. Keep thinking Miley’s cute and in complete control and see what happens next. I’ve seen it happen a thousand times before. If she was as smart as she says she is why would she admit to using drugs?
Looks at your name. Yeah ok. They still trying to make the impersonator happen??
Your fav is nothing but a Mariah knock off whose already becoming irrelevant.
@I AM ABOVE U SHUT UP YOU DELUSIONAL, KINKY S***. YOUR OPINION IS S*** AND H** YOU WILL DEAL!
You people act like yall kno Miley personally. ^
Miley is doing the same things Beyonce Rihanna and Xtina have done they all walk around half naked shake their asses and s***.. & lets not act like Beyonce wasn’t naked in the cater to you video.
Thanks!!! These people are a joke coming for miley. When they fav or not that far from her!
Exactly so many hypocrites and im over it
They are coming for miley but yet when they fav performs it feels like is a dirty hood strip club!
Beyoncé is a sensual performer. There’s a difference. She doesn’t go around talking about how she pops molly and snorts cocaine. And tell me why have Beyonces performances never had the backlash that Mileys had?
Flawless Klokk!
@ Nelly Furtado fan
I just can’t!! your name will be the reason i will never respond to your ass again. You are a joke!!
As much of a flop she is at least she stays true to her self even tho it doesnt pay off .She is very artistic and talented and she was huge back then WITHOUT selling out like this miley f**.
All I have to say the Miley stans is lol. Just lol.
So many hypocrites in here..
Miley make b****** mad! Back on the scene, and got everyones checking for her. Stole the show is that why y’all mad??
B**** this gimmick wont last long, everyone will get tired of her. That s**** will be finished after Bangerz just like nicki was finished after pound the alarm.
LOL Viley will flop hard with her new album. Pour It Up video has aready overshadowed her.
Only thing that flops is xtina fat ass… Pour it up video is late tired and delayed #next
WHO CARES HOW YOU HATERS FEEL, MILEYS STILL GOT MORE MONEY!!!!
B**** stfu.
Miley is a hot ass mess but at least she’s fun and simple. Gaga takes two paragraphs to tell you why the chicken crossed the road.
Well that’s just how ur taste is. Everyone has their own way of expressing themselves. So who cares. Not everything in life is going to be black and white for simpletons.
do we have a reaction yet? it’d be interesting to see how she’d do. you know… “b**** made” she might do. consequent driving it further. mmh? 🙂
AINT NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT
People need to stop putting their two cents in. Mileys intention is to be controversial the b**** knows what she’s doing. Shes not as naïve as people think.
Miley girl you’re plan worked.
Typical illiterate hive
So I’m Illiterate cause you didn’t understand what I was saying. Oh ok.
So much f****** truth, I think I just became a Sinead O’Connor Stan.
Of course Mikey won’t listen, she’s getting too much buzz from 12 yr old fans.
I see no lies tho.
Miley shits on ur has been faves!!!!! Beyuckce, Rihaids, Cierror, Strainriah, Buffetina, Boreiana could never
This site is full of immature illiterate youngins. Miley, you better listen! Thanks Sinead!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUiTQvT0W_0
LOL You know Prince wrote that song…
Aint nothing wrong with being a s***…
its funny how lot of ppl don’t know who sinead is but they acting like they know about the music business
I didn’t know who sinead O’connor was before this letter, but unlike the simple mindset people on here, I actually went to look her up, instead of bashing her, not knowing who, and what she does..
ok after looking her up, this how I feel…
what miley is doing is nothing new…she’s acting like a s***, so does the majority of yall favs on here…most of yall favs sells their naked ass on the daily because they don’t have s*** to back up their s** appeal
she does drugs, ok and? she drinks, gets naked, again ok? so does your favs
miley is just having fun,….miley is a puppet? really?
she’s just doing what people are telling her? if any of you actually believe that b*******, i have a bridge to sell you in iceland
I just find it interesting how Miley somehow thinks she’s “clever” for being controversial not even realizing that this will eventually backfire. We’ve seen this formula time and time again. Whenever an artist markets themselves more for their gimmicks than their actual talent, they eventually become forgotten because the public finds them predictable and boring. Lady Gaga is a perfect example. Since people know her more for her stunts than her actual talent, she’s been flopping all over the place. People have become bored of her and have actually said that she has no talent( (even though she’s actually one of the few pop artists who do). Hopefully Miley re-thinks what she’s doing with her music career or else she will end up forgotten and ignored like all the other artists.
Wait til the actual album does out tho.
The Bible tells us that homosexuality is a sin and an abomination.((Genesis 19:5, Judges 19:22)
You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination. (NKJ, Leviticus 18:22)
If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them. (NKJ, Leviticus 20:13)
The National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality (NARTH) released the results of a two-year study onducted among nearly 860 individuals struggling to overcome homosexuality and more than 200 psychologists and therapists who treat them.
Before treatment, 68 percent of respondents perceived themselves as exclusively or almost entirely homosexual, with another 22 percent stating they were more homosexual than heterosexual. After treatment, only 13 percent perceived themselves as exclusively or almost entirely homosexual, while 33 percent described themselves as either exclusively or almost entirely heterosexual.
Although 83 percent of respondents indicated that they entered therapy primarily because of homosexuality, 99 percent of those who participated in the survey said they now believe treatment to change homosexuality can be effective and valuable.
As a group, those surveyed reported statistically significant decreases following treatment in the frequency and intensity of their homosexual thoughts, in the frequency of m*********** to gay pornography, and in the frequency of their homosexual behavior with a partner. Respondents also indicated that, as a result of treatment and sexual orientation changes, they were also improving psychologically and interpersonally.
Of the psychotherapists surveyed, 82 percent said they believe therapy can help change unwanted homosexuality. They further indicated that on average, one-third to one-half of their patients had adopted a primarily heterosexual orientation.
And more than 95 percent of the psychotherapists said they either strongly agreed or somewhat agreed with the statement that homosexual patients may be capable of changing to a heterosexual orientation.
It’s not too late to seek professional help for your homosexuality.
Omg. Miley is digging up every dusty and crusty b**** from yesteryear these days!!!! People cannot keep Miley Cyrus out their mouth it’s hilarious.
Are you people really telling me you don´t know who Sinead O´Connor is?????????????
“Nothing Compares to You” (written by Prince and beautifully sang by this woman) is better than any single Rihanna, Milye, Katy, Beyonce (except for Crazy in Love maybe), etc, etc have ever released! I mean, obviously, that song is a classic of epic proportions and doesn´t fail to make your corporal hair raise each and everytime.
The nowadays low standards are killing the artistry.
Of course none of you f*** know who Sinedad O’Connor is because none of you listen to anything that’s not generic/made before 2008.
That’s all I have to say right now.
Wait wait, is that a man or woman? Is it a t*****? I’m confused. Anyway, this being spoke nothing but the truth. Miley, you’re acting like a dumb crack w**** thinking it’s cute and “bada*s” like your counterpart Riha….nevermind. Anyway, you look like trash, find a new role model to imitate.
All the flowers that you planted mother
in the backyard
all died when you went away.
LOL!!!! WOW..
It’s interesting to know in every Miley post, Gaga’s name suddenly gets mentioned. Debuting in the top ten is not flopping. We all know Applause is not a smash number 1 hit like roar or wrecking ball but Gaga isn’t a singles artist. The fact that she is outselling some of the biggest names in music like Eminiem, Justin Timberlake, Lana on the singles chart proves that some ppl are still here for her. Also, I wouldn’t be quick to write her off as a complete flop until the album comes out and underperforms.
Now about Miley, people and the media have suddenly become more interested in her and diverted their attention away from Gaga becuz ppl are not use to seeing Miley acting lewd and outrageous and it is riling up the prude white Americans that know her a sweet Disney star. Gaga has been outlandish since 2008 so maybe they are not so surprised anymore. Everyone has their up and downs. It happened to Britney. Same will happen to Miley. So she better get her coins while she can.
Miley’s work has went on to do 50 million WW , if you watched her on MTV last night you could tell that she was WELL AWARE of the image she was creating for herself and everything she was doing.
Just because she’s associating herself with black people/black music of course they gonna say they pimping her/using her as a prostitute… she knows exactly what she’s doing, f*** outta here
