According to MTV's new television spot for the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards, Miley Cyrus is smokin'!

The controversial pop star can be seen caught in a cloud of smoke that slowly fades to reveal her wearing a very colorful outfit, her hair in a tight bun, dramatic sunglasses and sporting a red-lipped pout.

The video was released by MTV on July 24 and, while the video itself is pretty tame, many are concerned with MTV's choice of Cyrus to take over the award show.

On July 22, the Parents Television Council released a statement expressing their concerns with the rating of the award ceremony.

"MTV's choice of Miley Cyrus as host for its annual Video Music Awards show makes clear the network's intentions as to what kind of program it intends to air," said PTC President Tim Winter. "If MTV cannot guarantee that the program will be suitable for children, then the network must - must - rate the show TV-MA. Assigning any lower age-rating constitutes an express message to parents, and to corporate sponsors, that the program will be free of explicit material."

Winter also explained that with Cyrus at the helm, the VMAs would be an unsuitable show for children to watch.

"As a parent of a teenager, the content from two years ago was clearly not appropriate for a 14-year-old. I think last year's was toned down quite a bit," Winter said, reports Billboard. "This year, clearly, they're going to try to ramp it back up again. And based on everything we've seen Miley doing in recent years, she certainly seems angry and certainly seems to be enjoying being the provocateur."

The "Wrecking Ball" singer made the announcement on Instagram that she would be hosting this year's award show on July 20 with a picture of her dressed in an alien bodysuit and holding a sign that read, "MTV won't let me perform, so I'm hosting this year's VMAs."
