Miley Cyrus, star of Hannah Montana, is unhappy with how she comes across in the new issue of Vanity Fair.

"I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be 'artistic' and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed. I never intended for any of this to happen and I apologize to my fans who I care so deeply about."

The Disney Channel agrees. They say, "...a situation was created to deliberately manipulate a 15-year-old in order to sell magazines".

But Vanity Fair says that "Miley's parents and/or minders were on the set all day," and "Since the photo was taken digitally, they saw it on the shoot and everyone thought it was a beautiful and natural portrait of Miley."

Vanity Fair shows us 18 photos from the shoot on their online site.
