There has been a lot of news about Miley Cyrus aka Hannah Montana - with her purportedly billion-dollar worth of franchise and now her transition from tween-queen to the ranks of Mickey Mouse graduates like the Olsen twins and La Loha. This time around, it’s about the flesh-baring photo shoot with world-renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz.

Not too many people make the right choices, but I think Miley Cyrus did. How can you go wrong working with Annie Leibovitz? Her substantial work and profile of business clients says it all.  If you want to break away from the bopping-kid crowd as your target market, how else would you have it? A summer-thriller film?

Annie Leibovitz is an icon herself. The legendary shutterbug who captured John Lennon and Yoko Ono for an album cover before he was killed hours later has also captured the smiles of Angelina Jolie, the controversial and then pregnant Demi Moore, Queen Elizabeth and of course, Susan Sontag. If I could instantly whip up a portfolio of her works right here, right now either online or custom brochure printing, you’d know just who Annie Leibovitz is.  

And now, publicity statements are flying off from all across directions. It’s quite insulting to Annie Leibovitz if you ask me, with all these negative feedbacks that they spun off from the picture and the shoot just to make it all the more bigger, controversial, and talked about. It’s just the hypocrisy which I can’t stand. Now, everybody is speculating online or on print, from tabloids to blogs and more.

Miley Cyrus is saying sorry to her fans. Her parents are now saying “shame on you”. I say what gives?! Wasn’t this all set-up like an initiation that Miley Cyrus has indeed made it? No one else would have captured a much better picture, a picture that will be remembered years from now - all with the great eye and aesthetic taste of an Annie Leibovitz.

Interpret the photograph anyway you want it. In the end, you’ll see what it truly reveals – like the saying truth is beauty, beauty is truth - that is all ye need to know.

So I say brava! While the mouseketeer graduates are crashing their cars, guzzling their booze, and checking in rehabs, yours is a road way safer than the others and more tasteful.

The Internet has become so powerful that you cannot just avail of online brochure printing services in it but do things that shouldn’t really be an online thing. People seem to like the idea of confessing their sins and sharing even their most intimate secrets through personal blogs.

And it doesn’t stop on blogs. Search the Web and you will be amazed at so many sites that people have been coming up with. There are sites wherein you can confess your sins. There are those that you can fill out a form to be able to email God. And I’m sure that it won’t stop at that.

The Catholic Church says that this will never be a replacement for the real thing. If we really want to be true to our religions, we must go to church personally and consult the priests for spiritual renewal.

But if you will find time to look at those confessions, some will really intrigue you and break your hearts. As human beings, we’re sometimes more comfortable writing our thoughts out than talking to a real person, like the priests in this instance.

I also like writing to God but that’s too personal that I will never post it online for everybody to read. Although people won’t really know who the real person behind the letter, I can’t afford to share such intimate thoughts to others who are just browsing through.

There may be different reasons why people are posting such ideas online. They may want other to learn from their mistakes. And in this busy world, some really just doesn’t have enough time to go personally to church.

With the popularity of sites that cater to such thoughts, we shouldn’t be surprised at what could people come up with next. But once in a while, we must remind ourselves that no matter how busy we are, life doesn’t end on the cyberspace. We must also have a life offline. The world is not only about the Internet.

These days when everything can be done online, we must also take a rest from our technology-filled lives. Life should not end when the PC has been turned off. There’s a bigger world outside the worldwide Web.

She is the King’s daughter. And many would have wanted to be her or at least be related to the King in the same degree.

In this generation, perhaps only a few would genuinely understand such greatness. When I was a child, I was always excited to hear and dance to the King’s billboard charting songs. Yes, it seemed I had Billy Eliot’s spirit in me at that time.

But back to Lisa Marie. Couldn’t life have been perfect for her? We all recognize that life may be hard for her because of the big shoes she needs to fill in. The expectations are high. The paparazzi are always there following her every move. If the press were to squeeze anymore out of her, they might just jump into the band wagon, get custom brochure printing, and launch a media frenzy.

Through the years, I guess my fascination didn’t end when the King rocked and rolled his way to heaven. I never lost interest on Lisa Marie Presley. She as lively and as colorful as life itself. It just so happens that the life that she has chosen was not the kind I imagined it will be for her. This princess is not the princess you’d imagine to settle down quietly like Snow White. (If Snow White ever did)

She had only announced that she is pregnant. This is her first with her present husband Michael Lockwood.  The announcement came with such bitterness. She did it on her personal blog. She expressed her frustration about how the media is treating her. She’s upset about how the tabloids are putting out just about any stories, even if they’re bordering on slander, about her life or how they predict her life to be. Tabloids were to squeeze anything more out of her, they’d profit just by making brochures and custom brochure printing.

No woman deserves that. No rock and roll royalty deserves the way they’re treating Lisa Marie.

She may change husbands the way she colors her hair, so what? She had two children from her first marriage with Danny Keough in 1988. They got divorced in 1994, and then she married, incredulously, the King of Pop, Michael Jackson. This relationship seems to say one music royalty deserves another, but then again, it didn’t quite turn out that way.  The affair lasted for 21 months.

She then became engaged to John Oszajca, a rocker, in 2000. In 2002, she tied the knot with Hollywood actor Nicolas Cage. After three months, the latter filed for divorce.

And now, the baby belongs to her fourth and present husband, Michael Lockwood. He was Lisa Marie’s music producer and also her guitarist. They got married in Japan in 2006. I just really hope that this baby will bring peace to Lisa’s life. May this be a start of her finally stepping up and filling her princess shoes to live happily ever after.
