No, that dollar amount in this article’s headline is not a misprint.
Miley Cyrus has been sued for more money than even she’ll see in this lifetime.
According to TMZ, Lucie J. Kim claims to represent more than one million Asian Pacific Islanders that live in L.A. County. She has filed a class action lawsuit against Cyrus due to her participation in the infamous photo below that depicts Miley and friends slanting their eyes.
Might this photo cost Miley Cyrus… everything?!?
The documents state Cyrus “knew or should have known that her image would be publicly disseminated via the media, which Cyrus knew focused on her private life, specifically TMZ.”
The suit also reads that that each Asian Pacific Islander is entitled to the minimum damages for a civil rights violation: $4,000.
* Our take: Yes, Miley Cyrus can be a hypocrite. She acts like a self-centered, self-important celebrity one moment; and then claims she’s “just a kid” the next moment, supposedly unaware of the stir a photo such as the one above would create.
But, come on. $4 billion in damages?!? Even Patty Hewes would say that’s unwarranted.
