“Who Owns My Heart” ponders Miley Cyrus in her new single. Certainly not Disney, judging by the latest writhe and grind music video from the teen who found fame, and millions of tween girl fans, as “Hannah Montana”.
Miley has spent most of the past year trying to distance herself from her Hannah Montana alter-ego, even though the TV series is still running on the Disney Channel.
But with still a month to go before she turns 18 in November, the raunchy video for “Who Owns My Heart” has sparked another round of raised eyebrows and hand-wringing about her sexed-up new image.
“Who Owns My Heart” finds Miley lying on a bed in a seedy room, making come-to-bed eyes at the camera, trying on skimpy outfits for a party, flashing a leg in a limo and grinding with party-goers (male and female) on the dance floor. It follows the release in June of the raunchy “I Can’t Be Tamed” pop video from her new album which Miley said at the time was all about girls empowering themselves.
Entertainment Weekly called the new video “really sultry!” and “a frothy fun video”.
But the Celebritology bloggers at the Washington Post weren’t quite to enthusiastic, saying “(Maybe) I’m just a prude who finds the “Who Owns My Heart” imagery borderline icky for an underage girl (who was and continues to be marketed to children by Disney)”.

Miley "writhes in bed in her underwear".
Miley bares her legs before heading to a club...
In the limo, Miley gives us more leg-writhing
Then, in the club, Miley dons "glittery barely-there club gear - with plenty of cleavage and leg on display - before hitting the dance floor where she gets down with some older men," reports NY Daily News.
Miley's one month away from being 18, and wearing a pair of shorts in a video is still a big issue?! Besides, Britney and Christina did it all before… Is Miley's video really too sexed up?
