Miley Cyrus left Twitter because of hypocrisy, not boyfriend’s orders

miley cyrus 210909

So Miley Cyrus quit her Twitter account, and now she just won’t shut up about it. She’s made a YouTube rap video explaining her reasons for leaving Twitter, she faced down criticism from her father (The Mullet), she’s written about it on her official website, and she’s done several interviews about the mess. If the point of leaving Twitter was to get some privacy and take the publicity machine down a notch, it isn’t working. Because Miley has gotten more press this week than she has in the past few months.

What’s slightly surprising to me is that Miley seems super-concerned that people think she only closed her Twitter because a boy told her to. Miley wants us to know that she doesn’t just do what her boyfriend Liam Hemsworth tells to do, she does what she thinks is right. I can see the distinction, and I wonder if someone criticized Miley to her face for giving the idea that she would just do whatever Liam ordered her to do.

Miley Cyrus is feeling some cyber peer pressure. Days after she tweeted that rumored new beau and Last Song co-star Liam Hemsworth recommended she delete her Twitter account, the singer took to her official website to set the record straight about her internet blackout.

“I often complain to the ones closest to me that I don’t seem to have much of a private life any more and part of that is my fault. How can I whine about my life being [too] public if I am the one telling the world what I am doing?” she wrote.

As for Hemsworth’s part in that decision, she explained: “I had mentioned to him that someone made a fake twitter with his name and we both starting chatting about how ridiculous it is. Liam is a wonderful friend and he did not try to make me delete my page, he just helped me realize how much time I was wasting on that site.”

For the record, I don’t think Liam ordered Miley to close her Twitter, nor do I think Miley would go for a guy who ever tried to order her around. I get the feeling that Miley’s in charge in most of her relationships, for better or for worse. And that includes her relationship with her father.

Miley reiterated these sentiments in yet another interview, this time with Wisconsin’s Kiss 103.7 (story via MTV). Miley said: “I was kind of just like over tweeting about what I was doing instead of actually doing it. I complained that I wanted my private life more private but I’m the one who is giving the world access to it.” By God, I think she’s got it… say it with me, Miley: “hypocrisy”. Good girl.

Miley also answered questions about that stripper-pole-dance she did at the Teen Choice Awards: “If I stood up there and just sat by a microphone and there was nothing going on, it would just be like boring to me… I’ve never claimed to be [like Hannah Montana] for myself as Miley Cyrus. I’ve never claimed to be like you know the sugar-coated artist. I kind of do you know what I feel goes with the song and you know whether people like it that’s great and if they don’t that’s who I am so, they don’t have to be a fan.” Oh, it sounds like someone wants to rebrand herself, doesn’t it? I can almost hear the strains of Britney Spears: “Not. That. Innocent.”

    Okay so my first comment wasn’t approved I guess. Let me rephrase:

    Why is she allowed out of the house in skirts that short? Surely she and her dad are aware of the gross old men who fantasize about her. Why give them fodder like this? So disgusting.
