Miley Cyrus outraged parents of her young fans last week by dancing around a pole at the Teen Choice Awards. Cyrus, 16, held on to the pole, part of a prop ice cream cart, for 30 seconds, in a performance likened to a stripper’s in part because she was wearing very short shorts. “That’s how Britney took off,” said Us Weekly senior editor Ian Drew. “She was the good girl gone bad, and it looks to be working for Miley, as well.”
