Miley Cyrus Stands Up Occupy Wall Street in New Video
Miley Cyrus turned 19 yesterday, and celebrated the occasion by taking on a very adult cause.
Two weeks after taking on critics who mocked her weight gain, the singer/actress has placed herself in the middle of Occupy Wall Street - the global protests in which the self-proclaimed 99%, who feel as if the rules favor the rich, have tried to make their voices known - by releasing a new video.
The following three-minute clip went viral last night, as Miley's "Liberty Walk" is played over shots from the movement, all preceded by the words: This is dedicated to the thousands of people who are standing up for what they believe in.
Miley is not the first celebrity to get involved in this cause. Jay Z got in trouble this month for releasing shirts that urged protestors to "Occupy All Streets."

Riley Cyrus deserves credit for showing her support for the Occupy Wall Street Movement. I do hope she decides to accept the invitation from Priscilla Grim -- co-editor of "The Occupied Wall Street Journal”, to visit an Occupy encampment or gathering to express her support in person and on the ground. The Occupy Movement offers humanity the best chance it has of getting its relationship with Mother Earth back into a sustainable balance. The greed of Wall Street and the elites aggressive geopolitical resource wars using our tax dollars and our young people to provide easier access to other people’s oil for the benefit of energy corporations and military contractors are preventing us as a species from finding a path of coexistence with the other species on Earth. If we in the United States or elsewhere are to have a democracy then we have to honor the rights of peaceful assembly and freedom of speech so we can compare ideas and choose an equitable and environmentally sustainable pa

The occupy protesters are so ignorant. The top 1% makes 19% of the income and pay over 40% of the revenue. If you raise taxes that would make the ecconomy worse. The occupy movement is just ignorant people getting together doing something very stupid.

@riley: im sure you are good person whos just trying to defend your religion. Sorry if i came across a bit strong, but that is my belief. And i respect your belief also. But just cos im not religious does not mean im a bad person. I have a great respect and love for God. Like many others, i just choose to worship God in my heart and how i live my life.Simple things like the nature, a flower, animals and innocent children. This really makes me feel much closer to God than in a church, temple etc. (no offense though to u)lots of love- )))))peace.
