The 2015 MTV Video Music Awards won't be held until the end of August, but people are already blasting Miley Cyrus who's hosting the event. A group of parents are unhappy with the network's decision to hire the provocative singer as they believe she will make the show inappropriate for younger viewers.

"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," PTC president Tim Winter told Gossip Cop.

"It's not going to be safe for children to watch. So, they must rate it TV-MA," Winter continued. The VMAs is currently rated TV-14, however, "with Miley's shtick, it's probably going to be very edgy, very profane, very sexually explicit," he added.

"As a parent of a teenager, the content from two years ago was clearly not appropriate for a 14-year-old," he said, referring to Cyrus' now-controversial performance with Robin Thicke at the 2013 VMAs. "I think last year's was toned down quite a bit. 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 enjoying being the provocateur."

This year's MTV VMAs is airing live on August 30. Cyrus announced earlier this week that she's hosting the upcoming ceremony because the network didn't let her perform.
