Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana getting sued...

[X4biddenxLustX]

I tried doing a search for this but nothing came up. But has anyone heard about her recent picture disaster? Here is a link to one of the sites explaining what is going on: Miley Cyrus' slant-eye pose slammed by Asian group | Entertainment | Reuters

Another one: Teen Scoops: Miley Cyrus Asian Scandal

Basically her and a bunch of idiot friends and including some asian guy are doing the whole asian mocking "slanteye" thing in the picture. The OCA is pissed about it and there is a lady I think in LA who is trying to file a class action lawsuit against her. I'm in a hurry right now or else I'd find another article. But you could probably google for it.

I just want your thoughts on this matter. I actually found it offensive even if their was an asian guy in the picture. It doesn't make it any less insulting. But the thing that bugs me the most about this is that there are pictures and other things all over the internet of Miley doing some not so appropriate things. Yeah she's a teen and we've all done some stupid stuff were not proud of. But she's someone that is famous and millions of little kids in the world look up to her. She's their role model. And if theres that many people who look up to you, you need to get straightened out. Now tons of these little kids are going to walk around thinking it's okay to insult other people because of their race and facial features. I mean I know racism and ignorance is probably never ever going to go away completely but I thought that we've gone much further past that in this day and age.

She's given I think 2 half assed apologizies if someone was offended by it, but no apology for taking that picture at all though! Again that upsets me.

ah, screw her.

 

[cupcake_x]

Notice how she constantly gets into stupid shit? The naked pictures, the pictures of her in the shower, the pictures of her flipping off some guy and now this? How the hell hasn't Disney dropped her yet?

I mean really, has she not learned from all the other scandelous pictures in the past??

 

[Kiyishima]

Half those pictures people find of her, aren't really her. Theres a girl on the internet, and i swear she looks IDENTICAL to her, so shes probably posing as a fake miley, but whatever.

 

[Tashona Helena]

^ miley apologized for the pictures on her website, it is her.

However, I'm sorry I can't bring myself to believe that she should get sued. Just because someone is put in a celebrity status doesn't mean that they're any more smart than the average kid. I did the slant eyes thing to my friend a week ago saying that I wanted to have them (I hate my round eyes) and I think they're exotic and one day he's gonna see me looking like *does the face*. I didn't mean anything by it, and I"m sure she didn't either. People just...ugh.

 

[kaexbabey]

sometimes i think celebrities have it hard with these kinds of things. i mean, i'm asian/pacific islander & me and my friends jokingly make fun of each other too. like we say "can you see that? oh wait ur eyes are too small." its just jokes you know? and i'm sure that's what they were doing too because there was an asian guy in the picture too. they just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, with someone with a camera.

its not like she asked for all these little kids to look up to her. its not her fault. if kids are gonna start seriously making fun of other ppl racially then its up to the parents to teach them that it's not right.

Seriously I think it's more then ridiculous to be offended or willing to sue someone for a reason like that.. I mean come on.. we can joke with pulling our eyes, don't be offended personally because you are Asian !?? yeah just ridiculous IMO.
If it wasn't happening in the US nobody would talk about suing.

 

[stronqerx]

She should know better though. I agree, she's gotten into a lot of scandals and she doesn't seem to learn. I don't think it's funny but I don't think she should get sued, they're just saying that because she's famous. I've always thought of her being so obnoxious, and I don't think age has anything to do with it. A lot of teens these days seem to get away with a lot of things just because they 'don't know any better'. I don't believe that for one second, shes what 16? not 5.

 

[cupcake_x]

If she didn't want kids to look up to her, she should have gone to do another show, not a show on the Disney Channel.

I agree.

My daughter and I can't stand that child. And to be honest she hasn't had any parenting either, no matter what Tish and Billy says. He was never around when she was younger as he that doctor show and Tish --well let's just say she isn't one to look up to. My daughter had tumbling/cheerleading class with her. Nobody really liked her or her mother. There was a small set of bleacher type seats for the parents but Tish didn't sit there. She always came in with skintight jeans a barely there top that was very low cut and would go over to the rail and lean over on it and talk to the twenty-something guys (who were pretty hot) that taught the classes. Nothing against tops like that even for moms, just IMO not appropriate for cheer class. Destiny/Miley would run around and at the top of her friggin lungs do the porky pig thing right before it goes that's all folks. Everyone wanted to strangle her. But Tish just ignored her and kept flirting. So the whole thing her parents say about how they're such conscientious parents is b/s. And don't even get me started about allowing her at 15 to date a 20 year old. They are basically rich white trash IMO.

But at her age she knows better than to do something like that. Even if it wasn't meant to insult or offend anyone she should not have done it. She has put herself in a position to be a role model to very young kids and I believe when you do that you have a responsibility to behave appropriately at all times. I think Disney should have dropped her a long time ago. But she does bring in the bucks for them.

I think Miley should know better. 15 or not, you're famous, people will find a way to make you look like an ass. Watch what pictures you take.

OTOH, the lady suing is beyond stupid. She oughta get some sort of fine for frivolous litigation. Clogging up our courts with this stupid shit.

Her and the $8m pants guy oughta both be smacked around.

 

[SakurasamaLover]

I don't care if she is a whore or thrash or anything. The point is: even if you are an actress, you have the liberty to do a Asian eyes picture. They are clearly not racist there is an Asian in the picture for god sake. We can tease each other with the differences we celebrate between us. If you are offended by that then maybe you should question why it upsets you. Asian eyes are beautiful, I know more then one of my fellow women of all color who are jealous of those eyes.

Be good about yourself, enjoy the diversity, it is clearly not meant to be offending.

It's not mentally healthy to be upset about such a thing.

 

[jaclynashley]

She's so dumb.
I have asian eyes and I'm not offended but I think she's an arrogant teenage girl and her parents obviously aren't raising her right,she's dating a 20 year old underwear model isn't that illegal?!?!
I can't wait until everyone forgets about her and they sell all of her stuff at the Dollar store.
She'll be just another Lindsay Lohan,at least Hilary Duff didn't turn "slutty" until she was 21.

 

[kristina ftw!]

To be perfectly honest, I think suing her over this is beyond ridiculous. Miley Cyrus is getting a heck of a lot more shit than she deserves. She's just making a face, I really really really doubt it was meant as anything more than that. In fact, that someone would take offense to it is baffling to me, but I guess maybe things are a lot different in the USA.
Bottom line though, from what I see and hear, she's not a bad kid. People need to leave her alone. Kids could have way worse role models than her - at least she seems to have her feet on the ground, and really ... I never thought all of those "scandal" pictures were all that bad to begin with. Maybe I just haven't seen all of them, but what about that girl from High School Musical? Hers were WAY worse!

I have to agree that as much as I find her and her friends doing the "slant eye" offensive, she shouldn't be sued. The class action suit was suppose to be for 4 BILLION DOLLARS. Seriously ridiculous. I doubt she even being as rich as everyone thinks she is has that much of money. I think that the lady was doing it for publicity if she's that type of person or to just bring media attention to this situation. I doubt there is any merit to the suit either way.

I think I'm offended by this is because of personal reasons. I use to get made fun of a lot for being asian when I was younger. The "slant eye" was just ONE of the things those ignorant ass kids use to pull off to make fun of me. Now I dont think she is racist but just acting stupid and not thinking. She should have realized that this could possibly offend a ton of people and give off the wrong message. Which can hurt her career.

But even before this, I didn't like Miley. Way too many scandals and all those pictures of her doing other inappropriate stuff. I get that she is young but when the whole world a so many little kids are looking up to you, you have to be careful about the message your putting out there. Young children are very impressionable. And why on earth would she let anyone or even take pictures of herself doing those things?! Publicity maybe? My friend and I had discussed in the past about her and I was told that Disney doesn't want to admit it but she is becoming less popular. There already on their way to try to replace her once she is gone with a girl named Selena Gomez? (I think she already has a show on Disney too) who is a better role model for kids. A lot of Hannah Montana merchandise isn't getting sold around here and at many other places. You can see a ton of her stuff on the clearance bin and no one is really buying it either. Idk why Disney just won't drop her.

In a way I do feel bad for her though, cause it's pretty obvious her parents don't care about her and what she does.

Yep. She practically has no parental guidance whatsoever. Children NEED not only for their own good but to learn right from wrong and to be responsible.

 

[cupcake_x]

Maybe if she had an ounce of talent I'd be a little sympathetic. But when you're talentless and always getting into ridiculous things, uh uh.

That being said, I don't really understand how this could equal a law-suit. It's offensive and stupid, yes, but I don't really understand how that is law suit material.

 

[BEA2LS]

i can see it being offensive but i do not think it is necessary to file a law suit. i do not like her but do not think this "scandal" should ruin her (I would be more concerned with her older boyfriend, wtf is that all about???)

 

[MissResha]

wait...


they're suing her for $4billion because she pulled her eyes?


BWAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAA!!!!!! hilariously RIDICULOUS!
