The frenzy has been heightened by Billboard magazine, which innocently launched a poll to see who was more popular with readers, Spears or Gaga. But the poll, which saw more than 2 ...

The media called me to ask my opinion on MTV's "Skins." I told them I had not watched it but read all about it. My take? Simple: irresponsible and exploitative on the part of MTV.

Just look at the evolution, or should I say devolution, of sexual exploitation in the culture. First, Madonna sexualized herself and erased the line between music and soft porn when she was in her 20s. Then Britney Spears did it at 19. Miley ...
