It’s been over a month since the whole Miley Cyrus VMA debacle, and the performance still seems to be talked about as if it was done yesterday.

This is exactly the type of press Miley is craving for and getting. She has said numerous times that she wants to be seen as a completely different person than who she was as Hannah Montana. With a streamline of different popular artists headlining major shows regularly, she wants to set herself apart from the pack.

She has even given proof herself, stating in her her documentary Miley: The Movement, According toBuzzworthy.MTV.com and According toVH1.com “You can watch that performance from the VMAs, and think it was like a hot mess," Miley says. "But it was a strategic hot mess.” She also goes on to say, “You’re always going to make people talk. You might as well make them talk for like 2 weeks, rather than 2 seconds.”

She’s actually right; we’ve been talking about her for more than 2 seconds and have even surpassed 2 weeks. We need to wake up, people! She knows what she’s doing in garnering our attention, and so far, it has proven to work pretty darn well. It looks like Ms. Miley is the one having the last laugh… right now as we speak!
