In Miley-the-creation and Miley-the-girl, we have someone who's cool but wholesome, sophisticated but innocent, glamorous but sweet. Her appeal crosses cultural lines and, accordingly, elicits different reactions. On Access Hollywood, a bespectacled boy gives her flowers, while a 20-something asks where she wants her first...
