Pity the poor teen idol.

Miley Cyrus, hugely successful star of "Hannah Montana," whined to the Today show that "my mistakes are kind of a little bit harder because they are in front of millions and millions of people."

The 16-year-old was likley referring to the brouhaha that erupted over her disrobing for photographer Annie Leibovitz in Vanity Fair in 2008. Miley has also sent out racy photos of herself to friends via her cell phone, which leaked onto the Internet.

Despite her growing pains in the public eye, Cyrus sees a silver lining.

"It does suck to have to go through that. But also it makes you want to try harder the next time when I know that little girls look at me and say I’m their hero," said Cyrus during a break in her four song live set on Friday’s Today show.

But her role model status hasn’t stopped Disney’s reigning queen from stirring up controversy.

Cyrus’s latest scandal-ette occurred when she performed her new hit "Party in the USA," during which critics accused her of simulating pole dancing.
