Another Miley Cyrus Photo Flap: Possible Asian Mockery
From now on, when someone says "Cheeeese," a voice in Miley Cyrus' head should say, "RUN!"
No, the teen icon has not stripped down for any new half-naked photos.
But she has gotten herself mixed up in another picture controversy, this time by striking a pose that some may interpret as being disrespectful of another culture.
In the shot below, Miley is sitting on the lap of boyfriend Justin Gaston. Along with others, she's pulling her eyelids apart, perhaps in a mocking gesture directed at the facial structure of Asians.
Would the photo above be a big deal if Miley Cyrus were a typical 16-year old? Of course not.
Like Michael Phelps and his bong use, however, celebrities - especially those that peddle their image for fortune and fame - are held to a higher standard.
With that in mind, chime in below: Is Miley acting inappropriately in this picture?

So, if Miley Cyrus had blackface on, would she and the rest of her supporters merely pass that off as a "goofy face"? Give me a break. People seem to hold different standards when it comes to Asians. The fact of the matter is that what Miley Cyrus did was racist and indefensible. Period.

OK LISTEN GUYS- I KNOW MILEY A LOT BETTER THAN HER PARENTS, FRIENDS AND ANY OTHER PATHETIC USELESS BOY-FRIENDS.
MILEY HAS GONE A DRASTIC CHANGE AND IS NOW DESTROYING HER OWN LIFE AND CAREER. I THINK ALL SHE HAD WAS A KIND OF "GIFT" BECAUSE OF WHICH she made it atleast upto this rank.
WHY DO NOT CELEBRITITES REALISE THAT FAME AND POPULARITY IS OF NO WORTH IN YOUR LIFE.
YEAH, THIS IS TRUE INDEED.
NOTHING IN THIS WORLD WE LIVE IS PERMANENT EXCEPT GOD AND WHAT GOD WANTS.
MILEY MIGHT BE A WANNABE AND A GIRL WHO IS STUGGLING TO SUCCEED. BUT SHE SHOULD ALSO REALISE THAT HER SUCCESS LIES IN WINNING THE HEARTS OF THE PEOPLE, NOT BY MOCKING SOME PARTICULAR CULTURE.
WHAT IF ASIANS RESEMBLE SUCH FACE- AMERICANS ARE SOMETIMES WIERD THAN ASIANS TOO, ATLEAST ASIANS DO NOT USUALLY LET THEIR CHILDERN GO CRAZY AND MAKE GIRL\BOY FRIENDS TOO EARLY!
WHAT IS SHE GOING TO GET BY DOING ALL THIS STUFF?
ONLY AND ONLY HATRED! AND I THINK THIS HATRED IS THE REASON WHY HER CAREER IS FALLING DOWN.
SHE HERS

You know what, I totally agree with the person who says Asians have no back bones and everything they said in their comment because ITS ALL TRUE! SORRY! But I honestly dont even think Miley Cyrus is worth talking about, or worrying about. Shes just a wannabe whore who thinks that by getting into scandals like this, it will get her attention. And everyone else like idiots just follow her every move! Why should we care about her at all??? It's not like she or anything she does affects any of us at all! SHES JUST A STUPID LITTLE GURL WHO CHACES AFTER ATTENTION AND OLD GUYS!

As an Asian (Indian-American)I can say that Asians are pathetic. They have no backbone and simply live to lick Whitey's bootyhole, hoping to one day be worthy of Whitey's doodoo droppings. Say what you want about blacks and other minorities - but at least they have the social sense to know who is making fun of them and who isn't, and to not take bullshzt from anyone. Asians just take it like dumbazzes and ask for more. Pathetic. If that Asian kid sitting there was black he would've knocked the snot out of those racist white brats - they'd be shztting in their pants before they made fun of him or his race because they'd know they'd be a riot.

If Asians felt that she is mocking them then all they have to do is not have anything to do with her. Never buy her records or anything that she is selling.

Oh, come on. She, and another friend, are teasing their friend sitting between them who is Asian.
