First the Vanity Fair magazine "racy" photos, then the "slanty eyes" photo brouhaha that offended some quarters of the American Asian community. Now here come a couple of Miley Cyrus pictures posted by 44-year-old filmmaker Adam Shankman, who produces Miley's new movie The Last Song, on Twitter that begs the question: "Is Miley Cyrus really as Disney-wholesome as she claims to be?"

The Sun reports that the first picture is of Miley sitting provocatively backwards in a chair, and the second is of Miley and Shankman together. Shankman defended the photos, saying: "Miley is a sweet angel who works tirelessly and endlessly and is allowed to have fun in the make up room." He advises fans to "lighten up" over the photos. In both pictures, Miley Cyrus looks like a . . . grownup.

What's the big deal with Miley growing up, anyway? A whole lot, apparently, in the lucrative Disney Kingdom where kids are the subjects and Miley is the current ruling princess AND role-model.
