Never forget how Megan Fox stood up for Vanessa at the time, saying she should never have to apologise for someone stealing and selling her pictures and "I hate Disney for making her do that... fuck Disney".

“but that’s her own fault” these reporters are so disgusting

Tisdales "I'm not laughing, i'm uncomfortable." was so sad, that was her friend and he was trying to get her to mock her.

Ashley tisdale saying she was uncomfortable and the interviewer saying "Be comfortable" is the epitome of early 2000s nasty attitude to women

The male reporter asking “so are there more photos coming?” DISGUSTING.

young miley standing up for her was so sweet

I was a HUGE HSM fan as a kid, and I remember seeing the leaked pics, being like "ok" and just moving on. Nothing about Vanessa's image changed to me. I was around 8, 9 years old at the time.

Adults obsessed with naked teens (adult or no, 18 is a teen) is such a gross and weird part of the past. I remember when all these things happened and its wild WILD to look back on it now. She was a KID.

The fact that young Miley and Zac were way more mature than the grown-ass adult media reporters around them is seriously disgusting.

The way Miley paused knowing she could lie and not stick up for her friend but chose to protect her friend instead was wonderful. Women supporting women

It's disgusting how many fully grown adults in the media would rather rip an 18-year-old to shreds than protect the person and their privacy, and go after the hacker or person who's leaking that stuff. Disgusting.

the fact that one woman agreed that "she should keep her clothes on" is weird to me. they were sent with trust in mind. she wasnt aware theyd be posted anywhere. rather than blaming vanessa, why couldnt she hold accountable the person who leaked them?

How did all of these adults think it was okay to bully a teenager. Disgusting

I remember My mom was so mad about how they treated Miley. She kept saying... "When are they going to let stop blame little girls whose lives are ran by adults". I absolutely love her still.

"Actually I shouldn't be ashamed, they should be." Perfect quote!!!

It’s so messed that she had to apologize for being violated. That’s DISGUSTING.

The way these grown women reporters are talking about a teenager is disgusting🤢 not much has to be going on in your life to shame a child on television

The whole “girl you gotsa keep yo clothes on” thing was SO UNCALLED FOR considering the fact that she took those photos at home and was sending them to HER BOYFRIEND of at least a year 😭😭😭😭😭 people were wildin out over young girls back in the day oh my word

What’s wild to me is everyone treats her like she leaked her own photos and thus deserves the backlash. Makes no sense how dense people can be. Always felt sorry for her.

I don’t remember how I reacted to these “scandals” when they happened, but looking back at the media’s coverage of the each situation is embarrassing and gross beyond words.

"Parents who rely way too heavily on television to find role models for their children were outraged" This is the best quote out of a whole lot of good reporting. Incredible job!

The whole guy calling her out at the award show saying you gotta keep up clothes on was so uncomfortable and embarrassing. So gross of him to say that on stage how humiliating 🙁

20:06 Ashley- "I'm uncomfortable" Reporter- "Well, be comfortable"

People did her dirty, yet she chose to show that gorgeous smile & fun personality. She’s way too strong for people to notice.

There is no such thing as a "sexy" 14 year old. I can't believe they even TRIED to pull that crap, Disney is awful.

The adults were absolutely REFUSING to say someone leaked her photos. They spent so much time saying how she took the photo and now it's online. They loved to blame girls for their own victimization

Okay we get it Miley was a good friend but let’s talk about the disgusting adults that shamed her for absolutely no reason

wow GO MILEY i’m so glad she spoke up about it even years later because she was 15!! She was a child and for people around her to tell her she did wrong and she should feel ashamed is outrageous. Proud of her and ashamed of every adult that looked at her in any other way other than a child.

Adults in the early 2000s were so weird the way they spoke without any critical thinking or compassion I mean jeez these girls went through it that Miley shot was not that serious and imagine being expected to be perfect and a “role model” at 14-15 it’s so ridiculous we’ve all done things it’s called life and experience .

The fact that they all say “she did this to herself “ when these photos were maliciously leaked with mal intent couldn’t begin to comprehend in my mind. She was a NORMAL young woman, who’s photo gallery was clearly used against her in a ploy for the one who sold it to gain a monetary value. Love her poor heart..

The fact that they didnt think for a second that the nude photo could’ve been taken when she was underage is just ridiculous. And everyone who reported on this story needs to pay Vanessa for the damages they caused her

The way she was treated is absolutely sickening. I'm actually horrified.

“i shouldn’t be ashamed they should be” gave me chills. she’s so strong and what a wonderful message! f the shamers

Miley and Billy standing there in that interview defending her fills my heart with hope and love. Billy Ray “She’s a human being” You don’t see that very often in life, especially within that scene

As someone who was part of the demographic these parents were oh, so worried about being poorly influenced by these "scandals", I can confirm that the only thing I learned was that being a victim of sexual assault would somehow always be my own fault in the eyes of the public. Some lesson.

Imagine how lonely she must have felt.. it's heart wrenching .. and the person who leaked those photos was never held accountable.. 💔

NOOOO that interview with Ashley Tisdale!! I felt how uncomfortable she was. And the fact that he said "be comfortable" 🤮 god this reminded me of those times. It was incredibly toxic and it was SO NORMALIZED. What happened to Vanessa is disgusting! It happened to so many girls back in the day. Reflecting on the norms/standards of the late 00s and early 10s presented in this video, makes me understand why so many girls who grew up in those times went through some really horrible things, and at the hands of teenage boys who felt entitled to violate us.

The most disturbing part about this is, the women who were determined to bring Vanessa down were the same women who screamed and hollered they were abused by Hollywood men.

I remember this scandal like it was yesterday. I was 15 years old. Looking back at this story now as an adult, I couldn’t imagine the trauma she went through at such a young age.

I was cringing expecting Miley and Billy Ray to say something horrible (as was the norm in the early 2000s). But their response was surprisingly mature.

It's disgusting how messed up early 2000s media was to these young stars, especially young women. The Dane Cook situation is infuriating and it enraged me when the woman was laughing saying "that was amazing. Finally, someone telling her what clothes are for..." Like wtf???

I truly don’t know what worse, the guys telling her to “keep her clothes on” Or the announcer basically saying she deserved it like wtfff

as someone who has been revenge p*rn-ed before i can understand the pain and the loneliness that Vanessa's feel back then. i can understand the feeling when people blame me cause my video was everywhere on twitter while I'm not the one who leak it on the internet. and the most disgusting thing is people just don't care what i feel. they even said that I'm a drama queen, I'm playing victim, and even many people said that i deserved that. and no one even there for me or even wanted to help me. glad that was over now.

Dane Cook calling out Vanessa on TV and saying “gurl keep yo clothes on” was so unnecessary, super insensitive and people were laughing... disgusting. It’s not funny. You can see how uncomfortable and pissed Vanessa was. 😞😢 so many ppl are quick to judge Vanessa because of the photo scandal when it wasn’t even HER FAULT. What if this happened to you?

"that's her own fault" "she brought this to herself" bruh did they not understand the word "leaked"?? someone hijacked her by posting the photos online.. she's clearly the victim :(

Media around this time annoys tf outta me. If you’re looking for a teen to be a role model for YOUR kid then you’ve already failed as a parent

The shocking thing is the amount of ADULTS and "PROFESSIONALS" that perpetuated and made the situation so much worse

22:31 that's so disgusting. The fact that Vanessa even had the strength to stay in that room. I couldn't have imagined how she felt. I would have been sick and left. He's truly disgusting for saying that.

I have new respect for Miley after seeing that clip. I truly can't imagine how lonely you would feel as a teen having the entire world demonizing and laughing at you for something out of your control. You're already so self conscious at that age. Miley's words to the press must have meant so much to Vanessa when she heard them.

I love how both Billy and Miley were supportive of her during a time when it seemed like everyone was against her. We love to see it ❤

crazy how the media shamed miley for having a sheet covering her but praised a topless zach efron

The pressure put on young girls…it’s sickening, I remember me and my friends talking about a lot of these issues in school and not fully understanding it. The ‘she should have known better’ phrase was just thrown around so much…felt we had to learnt quick and fast cause no one was gonna guide us, just judge us. How were they meant to know better, they are kids, adults should know better! Miley didn’t print that picture, it was taken of her but she’s the one in the wrong, Venessa didn’t share those pictures they were stolen from her…but she’s wrong…what the heck were the media thinking…shame on them!

The whole nude photo thing is so disgusting how these adults treated her. And they were judging her for UNDERAGED photos!? Those people should be ashamed of themselves

I was old enough when HSM came out that I didn’t hear of her until like 2012 and still missed all of this. Poor girl. She’s amazingly talented and didn’t deserve this. No one does

The way she was only 18 years old... Poor baby she had to apologize for something that wasn't even her fault. The reporters who were talking about it are insanely disgusting, shame on them. I hope they look back with regret, esp after knowing she was 15 YEARS OLD in that photo.

People own Vanessa a huge apology. It was a nightmare being her fan during that time, not because we were listening absurd things about her everywhere, but we saw how much she was suffering. I remember checking forums and websites every week and there she was going to therapy again. Secutiry guards, never alone, no smiles, no usual happy dances... Nothing. She was a puppy. It was consuming her and we were just watching it. And all this while WE were also growing up, it was a mess and they handle it very poorly.

21:02 I cannot believed we accepted this as our media. Pure bullying. As a mother, I would never want to see my child go through this humiliation.

Its absolutely disgusting to see adults well off into adulthood talk down on this girl...it was hard to watch.

The amount of slut shaming of teen girls is so heart breaking. I lived through these times but don’t remember it being so brutal for these women.

It's so sad how people villanized her and never the person who leaked her photos.

In 2007 I was 14 and my bf was 17. He sent a p*rn video of us to everyone In the school and they sent it to everyone in theirs. It ruined my life at the time and this was the culture back then. Blame the girl, call her a ho3. Even when it was taken or distributed without permission. I’m glad we as a society have gotten better. I related so much to Vanessa at the time and still feel for her to this day.

i cant imagine the pain and anxiety she went through, being a celebrity and being leaked must be overall terrifying and everyone talking about it and making jokes on it is just unberable...

Y'all's editing is always crazy like wtf 🔥🔥🔥

What happened with Miley is disgusting! Like SHE’S COVERED!!! And also them attacking her dad for the photo of them was heartbreaking because people always turn something into something it clearly isn’t.

Every time a reporter comments on any of these scandals, it makes my blood boil. ESPECIALLY the grown women shaming these young girls for being exploited. Shame on them.

I think it’s weird that a magazine knew her photos were gonna be leaked and they were leaked the next day. Someone somehow stole those either by hacking her stuff or something else.

Grown adults putting kids down so harshly is terrible 😔

2004-2008 was an awful time to be a woman in hollywood. Like not only was it non consensual.....it was CHILD PORN if she was underage. People are so disgusting

Ashley being completely uncomfortable and being told “be comfortable” was so chilling. Everyone treated her so awfully. She was barely an adult! And a lot of those photos were just her trying to be cute and weren’t racy at all. And comments saying she needed this scandal because she was squeaky clean? People are disgusting. This wasn’t even that long ago, but it feels like public perception to these types of things has changed a lot.

I have never been this disturbed watching a documentary before. Seeing how vicious and ruthless the media as well the general public can be and to the extent of promoting 'victim shaming'. I feel so proud of Vanessa and Miley and other girls for standing up to themselves and not letting these people bring them down. Proving them all wrong with their successes. Hearing about it is traumatizing and I cannot even imagine how hard it must have been for them at the time. But they survived all these cruel unfair scrutinies. I pray...

the fact that things like this are known and released and nothing has changed or people didn’t get together to no longer support these disgusting hollywood companies after seeing what goes behind the scenes, is very telling that we are so easily deceived and don’t think for ourselves as a mass 💔

My girlfriend said this had little to do with Vanessa Hudgens and more to do with misogyny in Hollywood. Just passing the message.

I'll never understand why other women will throw young girls under the bus. I don't know if it's pressure from male co-workers, or jealousy or what. But that shit needs to stop. My heart goes out to teen Vanessa, this must of been so hard to go through.

Vanessa Hudgens is a kind and loving person. Her mom was a batch mate of my mom. And theyre all good people.

In all of these stories I find myself now in 2023 shocked at how these GIRLS were treated. I’m screaming at screen, “The teenaged Miley Cyrus isn’t to blame here. The photographer and her parents are!” Funny how time can make things so clear.

Respect to Miley for just keeping it real, instead of acting like it didn’t happen. She’s a good friend for sticking up for her at such a hard time

It is so disgusting seeing how the media treated her. She was freshly 18! I was around 9 when those photos first leaked and then I was around 10 when HSM3 came out, but I do recall bits and pieces of that time period. As a kid, I viewed her being much older than 18. It's insane to now realize and see that the media was being so nasty to a damn teen! I remember thinking back then that she didn't do anything wrong and why the hell were people mad at HER for these PRIVATE photos?? I guess that just really shows you how Hollywood was back in 2008. It's so sad. It's so weird to view this time period as an adult now. I'm almost 24 and I just cannot believe society really treated her so poorly. I have never seen that interview where Miley speaks about the situation. It's really nice to hear her being so supportive. Especially knowing how the media treated her growing out of being a Disney teen as well. This time period was so disappointing. The fact that society laughed and villainized this poor girl, even though she was a victim.... SO devastating. I am so happy you guys did a deep dive on this situation with Vanessa. Being a kid then, I never knew how ugly the media was towards her. I loved her growing up and that situation didn't change my mind on her. She was a huge role model for me growing up and I still admire her, especially seeing her get out of the Disney machine. She was so incredibly brave. I hope she continues to do well in life.

All I have to say is that Vannessa DESERVES an apology.

the production of these videos are TOP TIER quality!!❤

It's weird to look back on that and think about all these "adults" talking about pictures of a child and are almost giddy about it. What's even weirder is that you know all the reporters saw the pictures themselves. I would feel like such a gross human being feeling good about a picture of a kid and her downfall.

So messed up, these poor girls. If you ever find yourself cringing from an embarrassing highschool moment, imagine everybody all over the world talking about you. Everything is magnified when you're famous

First time watching a video from the channel, I was super impressed by the editing! The content was great too, very eye opening.

Jesus, celebrities particularly these child stars back in the 2000s really had such an awful time. It’s no wonder half of these people ended up screwed up as adults

It's weird how women basically get shamed for having a body. Like what exactly is she apologizing for? Having breasts, a vagina? It makes no sense to me. Also we'd all be pissed if someone leaked information from our phones. But when it comes to celebrities, we're just like "oh well, it's your own fault" like what

I see a lot of jealousy from every single female who reported this. None of these women supported her and so many are guilty of the same thing. Disgusting how rapid they were to expose her.

the stuff she went through as a young adult. crazy how shes still in this earth with us. I would have kllld myself through all of that.

I love so much how now a days, our generation, is so outraged and disapproving of this behavior. Now we stand up for them not bully and shame them

The most upsetting thing was the high chances that those pictures were underage. The way media treated Vanessa was inhumane.

These adults out here insulting children getting exploited should be slapped in the face 👀😈

Please do a video about Zac Efron and the Zanessa romance It's interesting they were never allowed to say yes to any question when asked if they were together.

The way they treated her SO young makes me sad… she did not deserve all that

@22:04 Dane Cook was absolutely GROSS and way out of line to publicly humiliate Vanessa on stage like that. An adult male saying something so crass to embarrass a young woman on national tv for something that wasn’t her fault is shameful. I’m completely creeped out and disgusted by his actions. Crazy how wildly and openly inappropriate young stars were treated back then (though I am aware starlets of all eras experienced this as well). 😒

'Leaked photos of herself' is heartbreaking to hear. Poor Vanessa. It was nice to see Miley & Billy-Ray defending her. I can understand why her Dad would have preferred to say he knew nothing about it & move on to the next topic, but I'm actually glad Miley said what she did & I'm glad Billy had her back with it too.. it's disappointing to see so many adults berating her, bullying her & making her life hell when she was a child. Even if she had done it at eighteen, that's still pretty much a baby in my opinion. Regardless, underage or not it's a disgusting thing to do to anybody & someone should have been held accountable for it.

Bravo! This is so well done!

It’s just terrible what the media does to these young woman but that’s how people are. They don’t deny their true colors.

I can’t imagine the trauma those child actresses now have to live with as adults, being tormented and blamed for being exposed/violated in that way at such a young age. That would stick with you for life.

This Channel is SO UNDER RATED. By far the best. Spread this Chanel around. The way they set the stage and get the story out is catchy.

Anyone and everyone who shared that video and anyone who benefitted from it in any way should be sued by Vanessa including Disney.

considering that all celebrities do now of days in prance around basically naked, she is owed a HUGEEE apology.

People who looked up to these girls as role models have a weird definition of, entertainment. ...the fact they put so much pressure on these young girls to be perfect is insane.
