Country star Josh Gracin tweeted: "Thanks Miley Cyrus. Now I have to explain to my 11 yr old daughter why she no longer can follow your career."
And Dancing With the Stars/Bachelor alum Melissa Rycroft tweeted: "I think I'm too old to appreciate the (ahem) new Miley Cyrus....feeling slightly violated...#VMA"
