The only problem I would have is with those who are faking it (which one sees rather widespread reports of as to Ms. Spears). Done with an eye toward profit? Again, as long as it is not a fraud, I'll see it as progress (however minimal it might be). I would be happy to see more entertainers taking this tact.

Perhaps their "boasting" is in fact a way to take a stand & encourage others to do the same? Miley Cyrus & the Jonas Brothers are from strong Christian families, from what I’ve heard.

I'm happy to see that since her father took over, she's been doing better.

I remember when she made that claim--At the time, I was in college with people who went to high school with her. "Umm, not exactly true" was their response. Britany Spears!

I guess that doesn't make news or good blog posts. ^_^ One the one hand, one doesn’t want to be naive, but on the other hand, what happened to thinking the best of everyone in love?

(Sorry, can't recollect the other man's name) were a sharp contrast to men like Magic Johnson or Kobe Bryant. The athletes dont get the publicity they merit for advocating chastity until covenant marriage. I was also impressed by the clear-cut Christian witness given by the model Cathy Ireland. Someone has to make a witness to those who work in such a superficial industry where young people are used and then cast aside.
