Miley Cyrus Denies She's Racist

 

Published 2/5/2009 by The Huffington Post News Team at Entertainment on HuffingtonPost.com

The Disney star found herself in hot water this week after a photo of her pulling the corners of her eyes with a group of individuals squinting surfaced... But while some say she was mocking Asians with the pose, 16-year-old Cyrus denies any offense. "I've also been told there are some people upset about some pictures taken of me with friends making goofy faces! Well, I'm sorry if those people looked at those pics and took them wrong and out of context!" Cyrus says on her official Web site. "In NO way was I making fun of any ethnicity!" (link)
