Miley Cyrus made headlines everywhere following her raunchy 2013 MTV Video Music Awards performance but regardless of the tons of negative press, the singer seems satisfied. 

"Smilers! My VMA performance had 306.000 tweets per minute. That's more than the blackout or Superbowl!" she tweeted.

However, her performance was too much for some people to take. The Parents Television Council was not amused and the group's Director of Public Policy, Dan Isett, released a statement saying the following:

"MTV has once again succeeded in marketing sexually charged messages to young children using former child stars and condom commercials -- while falsely rating this program as appropriate for kids as young as 14. This is unacceptable."

Commenting on Cyrus' performance, a Rolling Stone op-ed read, "So everyone's up in arms about Miley going overboard. Well, that's parody doing what parody is supposed to do: blow something up into its most extreme form so it becomes impossible to ignore."

The 20-year-old former Disney star has completely changed her look and attitude since her days starring in Hannah Montana. She showed off a pixie cut in late 2012 and released her famous twerking video in March 2013.
