The former "scream queen," 49, has blamed the 15-year-old teen sensation's parents and guardians for failing to protect their charge.

She writes on The Huffington Post, "I know how Miley feels. I too was a little embarrassed by my recent topless "scandal" and the subsequent parodies, but I am an adult woman. I protected myself during the shoot and I can take the heat. I only wish that her guardians had protected her."

Cyrus had apologized for the "racy" pictures she had shot with famed photographer Annie Leibovitz for the Vanity Fair cover. Disney Channel also issued a statement claiming the magazine had manipulated the actress.

However, Leibovitz hits back saying the Cyrus camp knows exactly what they are getting into and insisting that the photos were just "misinterpreted."

Curtis adds that she empathizes with the young Cyrus but she just doesn't think the photographer had tricked her.

She continues, "Of course she is embarrassed. She is a young girl. She shouldn't have to deal with any of this. I don't feel that she was duped. I know the integrity of Ms. Leibovitz and the magazine and I know there were people present at the shoot that should have been looking out to make sure that this didn't happen."
