【psychotherapy and eroticism】

Miley Cyrus just proved it's never too late to admit that your apology didn't come from the heart.

The psychotherapy and eroticismsinger has retracted an apology she issued over a semi-nude photograph taken by Annie Leibovitz for Vanity Fair10 years ago.

The singer tweeted a photo of the front cover of the New York Post—dated April 26 2008—emblazoned with the headline: "MILEY'S SHAME."

On the bottom right of the front page reads an apology from Cyrus at the time: "I feel so embarrassed. I never intended for any of this to happen."

Well, one decade later, Cyrus is taking back that apology. "IM NOT SORRY," she tweeted. "Fuck YOU."

The photo was taken from the June 2008 issue of Vanity Fair when 15-year-old Cyrus was still appearing on the Disney Channel's Hannah Montana. The network was reportedly not happy about the shoot and claimed that Cyrus had been "deliberately manipulated" into posing nude.

The furore prompted Leibovitz to issue a statement about the photograph, stating she was "sorry" that the portrait had "been misinterpreted."

"Miley and I looked at fashion photographs together, and we discussed the picture in that context before we shot it," Leibovitz said in the statement at the time.

"The photograph is a simple, classic portrait, shot with very little make-up, and I think it is very beautiful," she continued.

Back in 2008, Cyrus issued a statement apologising to her fans.

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.

Glad we've got that cleared up.
