This is Mylie Cyrus, one of the best known teen celebrities in the world, in America, Europe...and Asia.

Does having the Asian "friend" with her make this picture "ok"?

Do I think she's malicious? No.

Do I think she's an idiot? Yes.

I think she's a classless idiot.

But Asians often make the same types of jokes too, no? And, they seem to be ok with their white friends joking them in certain ways. Even Engrish being spoken by whites or blacks often is perceived as hilarious by their Asian friends. I'm not saying that any of this is ok, or that we shouldn't factor in context of course. But, is Mylie simply being singled out because she's ...well, Mylie?

like many similar jokes she may have just not gotten that is was offensive. Among her fiends that may fly but once it hits the public the standard changes. I think the joke has 2 meanings, what she meant it to be with her friends and the one that a typical viewer would get-- once it gets out the 2nd offensive meaning is what it becomes.

I don't know the story behind the picture. I just meant overall, in general, she's a classless idiot.

Who's singling her out? If you hadn't posted the picture, I wouldn't have known anything about this.

And I'd think anyone who did it is an idiot, so...

this photo is old. and I think it is racist, even if it was okay with them and even if she did not think of it as such. like i said there is a different standard of what is offensive with close friends... but it changes outside that circle.

it's pretty fucking dumb

are the other people doing squinty eyes too?

and is the asian dude doing a round eye thing?

are they all in on it?

they all fucking tools

When I think of Mylie, I think of the loads and loads of shit, absolute shit, that has her name and likeness on it--most of which was probably made by kids even younger than she is for wages that aren't even livable. It kind of grosses me out that she is a billionaire from it all and still has absolutely no sense.

I'm more concerned about that dude's deep V t-shirt and necklaces.

Somehow she looks prettier that way

they look as though they've been partying. maybe not the best judgment moment of their young lives

yes, and I am glad I don't have to answer for every idiotic thing I did as a kid.

this is old.. at least last year

Asian folks called for - and got - an apology from her.

and, yeah, she's stoopid ... but I think her parents are partly to blame for that..

Shemight bust out soon in a series of Fairy movies that is in the same vain as Twilight.

But yes, that is an innocent joke. Unless it was done within the context of her "public" persona. then it would be a bad influence.

to Miley, I'm sure it was. to others, no.

Yea like folks mentioned..This is pretty old...but she's just a dumb kid..hopefully she's learnt better

Umm, isn't this related to the whole thing with her getting high? Because the asian dude (whose eyes are not slit or slanted or whatever, btw) looks pretty stoned. To be clear, I'm not excusing her behavior because she may have been high. I'm just wondering if the picture is being taken out of context. Like, she's actually expressing how slit-eye stoned she is. Also, this just seems like yet another org thread about ripping on celebrities when we don't really have any idea what was going on... so why the hell am I posting?

No I dont think so...the one with her getting high was a video I believe showing her inhaling the salvia or whatever it's called from a bong and she's clearly stoned..but in this one, this picture surfaced showing her clearly trying to slant her eyes.....and even though she was around Asians..People still toook offense and it was a whole big deal with "Is she racist" ?, "Should she apologize"?..Yada yada yada ...I watch too many Entertainment shows.

The Spanish basketball team says no. They got a lot of shit for it too.
