I think they catered to a certain demographic (mostly kids and early teens). They changed their image during a time they were still considered teen idols so they became "unsafe" for that demographic. It is possible they changed their image to soon and the industry/public did not like it. The funny thing I don't understand about the media is. They will insist an act like Miley is to controversial but then they will say an act like Beyonce is "safe" when she practically does the same thing. I definitely think there is an agenda going on behind the scenes with how they market certain acts.
