Perez Hilton accuses Linnocent of cutting herself again, LL says “That’s crazy”

ll4

Here are some more photos of Linnocent in Paris, taken by Terry Richardson. Uncle Terry photographed Linnocent extensively while they were in Paris, and LL is making her little open-mouthed beej faces in almost all of them. Because that’s the way Uncle Terry likes it. Ugh. Anyway, with all of the photos coming out of Paris, most people focused on Linnocent’s crackie face and her jacked crack lips. But it seems like Perez Hilton was looking at something else – Linnocent’s arms. Specifically, there were some weird “blemishes” on LL’s skin. Here’s a decent photo of the weirdness:

wenn3537690

Do you see that? She has what looks like some older scars on her left arm. They look like old lines from where she used to cut herself. To me, they definitely look like OLD scars, and not something new. After all, people have been noticing Linnocent’s cutter-scars for years. Anyway, Perez Hilton ran a story called “Oh No! Is Lindsay Cutting???” – a post which said in part that he noticed a “fresh scar… We’ve seen that kind of scar before. We’ve seen that kind of scar on HER before. We have a deep, dark feeling we know exactly what is going on – and we want it to stop. Honey, what is wrong with you? Why aren’t you getting any better?” So what did Linnocent do? She issued a denial to Gossip Cop and positioned herself as the victim of bullying.

Lindsay Lohan is the latest victim of Perez Hilton’s reckless sensationalism, with the blogger desperately trying to stir controversy by suggesting that the actress is cutting herself.

Perez takes a picture of Lohan from a Paris Fashion Week event and draws an arrow pointing to what he calls a “disturbing image” of a “fresh scar” on the star’s left arm.

“We’ve seen that kind of scar before,” writes Perez. “We’ve seen that kind of scar on HER before. We have a deep, dark feeling we know exactly what is going on – and we want it to stop.”

Actually, he has NO clue what’s going on.

There’s a minor, barely visible scratch below Lohan’s elbow.

You have to work pretty hard to turn a tiny scrape that no one else even noticed into a warning sign of serious self-mutilation, and that’s exactly what Perez does, hoping to turn Lohan into a cutter.

He scolds, “Honey, what is wrong with you? Why aren’t you getting any better? Why are you still the hottest mess of the Western Hemisphere? What’s it going to take to get you back on the right track???”

Those questions, of course, are better directed at Perez himself.

Self-harm is a real and grave issue for young people everywhere.

Women like Demi Lovato speak about their experiences in the hopes that they can help others from going down a similar path.

Perez, meanwhile, trivializes cutting to take a cheap shot at Lindsay Lohan.

Lohan tells Gossip Cop the blogger is 100% wrong with his cutter allegations, saying, “That’s crazy.”

[From Gossip Cop]

I don’t understand all of it. She used to be a cutter, it’s well-documented, so I don’t see what’s so “crazy” about any allegation. But, those are not fresh cut marks on her arm, so Perez was full of it. That being said, it’s not bullying to point out someone’s scar, nor is it bullying to wonder if a former cutter is cutting herself currently. Why are people getting so sensitive and touchy about a crackheaded call girl?

Perez Hilton: “I’m the perfect person to write a children’s book”

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

Perez Hilton was a guest on The Today Show yesterday and I have to say he came across as much nicer than he has in the past. I’ve seen several interviews with him and he’s often defensive and obnoxious. This time, maybe because he had something to promote, he seemed friendly and like he really has genuinely changed. He was still a loudmouth for sure, but I was impressed with how decent he came across. Perez is promoting his new children’s book called, I sh*t you not, The Boy With Pink Hair. It’s got a cliched plot about a fat kid who used to scrawl anonymous graffiti on the walls of school about all popular kids, until they figured out who he was and then started to mock him mercilessly. Then he lost weight and said he was sorry and tried to get accepted in their club. Or maybe it’s just another book about an outsider kid. Whatever. Didn’t Madonna already do that?

Perez claimed he’s “the perfect person to write a children’s book,” not because he’s ever had children, worked with children, babysat children, said a kind word about someone else’s child, or has any nieces or nephews. Just because he used to be an asshole and changed.

I’m the perfect person to write a children’s book because I’m somebody who made mistakes in the past, acknowledged them, and has taken steps to no longer do that and I think that’s a great message for children.

In the past I was definitely meaner, nasty, give people unpleasant nicknames, draw lots of nice things on photos. But then, last year there were all these gay teenagers who were committing suicide… A lot of people were calling me a hypocrite and a bully myself. That’s not who I am in my heart.

They next showed some illustrations from the book, which were done by a professional illustrator and don’t feature crude penis drawings. Perez explained that “there’s a great message in it for parents about being accepting of your kids no matter how they are.” Kathy Lee clarified that “This is not a gay book, it’s not about your sexual orientation. It’s just about being uniquely different.”

Then Perez chimed in with “Everybody’s different, unless you’re Reese Witherspoon or Taylor Swift, who everybody loves.

I believe that he’s changed for whatever reason, but I see it more as a public persona choice than a genuine personal awakening. It’s still really tough to buy that this guy is now putting out a children’s book. Even if you just look at the other books he’s released and aren’t that familiar with his website, there’s a mismatch there to say the least. It looks like he needed a new angle for a book and for his image.

Perez Hilton putting out a children’s book “The Boy With The Pink Hair”

wenn5628576
The man whose name is synonymous with snark, Perez Hilton, is writing a children’s book that will be out this September called The Boy With The Pink Hair. I would say that Perez should write a gossip book first, but he’s already put out a couple of those that we’ve forgotten about. Perez is quoted by USA Today as saying that “This story is about every kid that’s ever had a dream, felt excluded, wanted to belong, and hoped that one day they could do what they loved and make a difference.” Penguin has more in a press release:

“The Boy With Pink Hair” is the story of a child born with a shock of fabulous hair that sets him apart from his peers. While some find this difference hard to accept or understand, “The Boy With Pink Hair” uses the opportunity to find what makes him special and share it with the world. The children’s book is illustrated with vibrant retro-feeling art by first-time illustrator Jen Hill, putting into pictures the fun that comes with embracing individuality.

[From Penguin via LA Times]

So Perez got sort-of nice after those gay teen suicides and maybe coinciding with the talking to he had from Jennifer Aniston and now he’s putting out a kid’s book about acceptance and “embracing individuality“. He also claims to be “making a difference” with his job. It’s hard to buy coming from a guy who made a name for himself outing celebrities and drawing cum stains on their mouths, to say the least.

Jennifer Aniston told Perez Hilton that she’s “moved on” from Brangelina

fp_6605528_rij_gnomeo_juliet_44_50

This is the weirdest story. Life & Style has an interview with Perez Hilton in which he discusses in detail his conversation/confrontation with Jennifer Aniston. As you may remember, when Aniston was on Ellen last week, she told a story about how she saw Perez out in public somewhere, and she went over to him and asked “Why are you so mean?” They had a conversation about bullying, I guess, or at least that was Aniston’s version of it. But according to Perez, he had some questions for Aniston too. Like, “Do you hate Angelina Jolie?” And according to Perez, Aniston had an answer.

For the first time, Jen Aniston opens up about her feelings toward Angelina Jolie–to famous gossip blogger Perez Hilton! Jen recently told Ellen DeGeneres about her August run in with Perez in an LA parking garage and now, he’s finally revealing the details of their conversation including what she now thinks of Angelina Jolie –exclusively to Life & Style.

When Perez asked Jen point-blank if she hates Angelina, “Jen said, ‘Look, that was so long ago, and we’ve moved on and we’re all adults,’” Perez tells Life & Style. And Perez believes Jen. “I believe what she has to say. I think she really has moved on.”

Jen is even in touch with ex Brad Pitt. In his conversation with Jen, Perez tells Life & Style, she reaffirmed, “I still talk to Brad and everything’s fine.” But it seems Jen is more than just fine. In fact, when he asked her about dating, she revealed that people who assume she’s lonely have it wrong.

“She told me that she dates a lot,” Perez tells the new issue of Life & Style, on newsstands now. “And just makes sure not to go anywhere public.”

[From Life & Style]

Here’s my question: this is a decent scoop, and God knows that Bermuda Triangle stories sell, so why didn’t Perez use this “interview” with Jennifer Aniston on his site? The only possible answer I can come up with is that stuff Perez said about how it was a “private” conversation between he and Aniston, and he wasn’t going to reveal anything, except that Aniston revealed it to Ellen. Whatever.

As for Aniston (allegedly) saying that she’s moved on… well… it was a yes or no question, and Aniston didn’t give a simple yes or a no. So there’s that. But sure, for this post only, and for argument’s sake, I’ll buy that Aniston has “moved on” and that they’re “all adults.” Why not? Oh wait… her People Magazine article has her drunkenly discussing her exes. Nevermind.

Jennifer Aniston “confronted” Perez Hilton: “Why are you so mean?”

wenn3107750

On today’s episode of Ellen, Jennifer Aniston talks about how she’s not adopting a Mexican baby. That one is a given – Aniston Baby Watch has been in effect for a decade, and no one has the heart to call it off. But Aniston also discussed something new! Perez Hilton, and how he was mean, and how he’s not anymore:

Sick of all the nasty things being blogged about her, Jennifer Aniston took matters into her own hands. Nearly literally. The former ‘Friends’ star, who features in the upcoming comedy ‘Just Go With It,’ appears on ‘The Ellen Degeneres Show’ on Thursday, and talks in part about her chance confrontation with the self-proclaimed ‘Queen of all Media,’ who developed a reputation as one of the nastiest celebrity bloggers around.

“I ran into Perez Hilton in a garage. One of those moments you just never expect to happen. I had finished dinner with a girlfriend and we were driving out and I saw this tall, long, lean person and I say, “Who is that?” And she says, “I think that’s Perez Hilton.” I said, “No. I have to say something to him. I have to.” So I pulled up and we were sort of scoping each other out as I was pulling the car up. I just rolled down the window and I was like, “Hi.” And he went, “Hi.” We stood there like two deer in headlights. And I just said, “Come here. Just talk to me for a second.” It was one of those great moments. It was a lovely meeting and I was just like, “Why are you so mean?”

Turns out, it worked. Hilton in fact went on Degeneres’ show in October to announce that he was no longer going to bully.

“Over the last two weeks I have been doing everything I can to bring awareness to the teen suicides and gay bullying,” Hilton told DeGeneres. “In doing so, a lot of people have called me a hypocrite and a bully myself and a big one… From now on I really want to be part of the solution and not part of the problem.”

So far, it’s been a promise kept, something Aniston gives him credit for.

“There’s something really great about putting a human being in front of another human being and then the reality that those words,” she said, “even if it’s for humor or effect or whatever, there’s a human being behind all of that… And he’s kept it up too which is good.”

[From Huffington Post]

I love Aniston getting all sanctimonious about bullying when she’s BFFs with Chelsea Handler, I really do. It’s so rich. Anyway, just an hour ago, Perez offered up his take on this Aniston story, saying in part, “I had not talked about meeting Jennifer Aniston out of respect for her and respect for the situation. It was actually a very powerful moment, I think for both of us. I told her the answer I would always tell myself — at the time, I viewed her as a character. I think it was very cathartic for her and for me.” So… Perez is now tight with Aniston, I guess…?

Sidenote: I love that Perez is wearing a t-shirt from his (and Aniston’s) one-time makeout partner, John Mayer. It makes my life.

Perez Hilton swears he’s not a bully and is not going to be mean anymore


Perez Hilton has recorded an emotional video and has gone on The Ellen Degeneres show to swear that the recent spate of gay teen suicides has so affected him that he’s no longer going to bully celebrities on his blog. Hilton has been instrumental in outing several gay celebrities against their wishes and regularly mocks celebrities in a juvenile fashion. It’s hard to imagine how he’s going to proceed and continue to write if he’s trying to be “nice” all the time, or as he explains it “sassy”. When pressed about this by Out magazine, he said that he would still publish what is possibly his most egregious privacy violation, the private sex photos of gay Oscar winning screenwriter Dustin Lance Black. There’s no way this guy has suddenly grown a conscience and gotten a clue. That was the worse thing he’s done and he says he wouldn’t change it. Gawker has a very good overview of Perez’s promises, and I guess we’ll soon see if they’re empty or not:

Blogger and face scribbler Perez Hilton is taking to Ellen DeGeneres, YouTube, and Out magazine today to say that he’s not going to bully celebrities on his website from now on. Is he serious or is this a PR stunt?

Perez Hilton (AKA Mario Lavandeira) claims that he will no longer bully famous people on his eponymous website, which became popular thanks to Perez drawing semen and cocaine on stars’ faces, calling them names, and generally defaming anyone famous that he didn’t care for. From the various statements he’s made so far, here are the changes we can expect:

  • No more mean names for celebrities (like calling Jennifer Aniston “Maniston” or Sienna Miller “Sluttienna”)
  • No more making fun of children
  • No more “cheap jokes”
  • No more outing gay celebrities
  • No more drawing inappropriate substances or phrases on people’s pictures

    The impetus for the decision, he says, is the media attention that’s been given to gay teen suicides following incidents of bullying. Perez has been speaking out against the bullies who caused these tragedies, although critics have pointed out that he is just as much of a bully as the people he decries. (That just shows how popular a bully can be.)

    I’m not that cynical to suggest that Perez is manufacturing his emotions to generate some publicity. But it certainly won’t hurt his image. If he makes changes to his website, he’ll likely engender a lot of good will from the gay community and from media outlets that have dismissed him as nothing but a name-caller with rudimentary Photoshop skills. And this is the perfect time to make the switch, when he can get the most attention (and get a talk show appearance) out of his actions.

    But what happens after this initial wave of attention has passed? Perez says he doesn’t care if his traffic goes down, but will anyone want to read his website when he’s not exercising his patented brand of school yard “journalism?” Will he start to freak out and go back to his old ways when his traffic (and his ad revenues) start to dip?

    Perez tells Out that he will no longer out gay public figures who are in the closet, like he did to Lance Bass once upon a time, but that he also would have still run pictures of gay writer Dustin Lance Black having unprotected sex with another man. How is outing off the table but posting private pictures still within the boundaries? It’s OK to post those pictures because he’s already out? Just what are the rules, Perez?

    He also says that from now on he’s not going to be “mean,” but he’s still going to be “sassy” and “have opinions.” We guess the only difference between “mean” and “sassy” is how an opinion has been expressed, but it is sort of an invisible and subjective divide.

  • [From Gawker]

    I don’t think he gets it. It’s like he realizes he has to change for his image, but can’t even form the words to explain himself and has to resort to platitudes like “I have to be the change” and “I want to be part of the solution not part of the problem.” At least he realizes that there’s a problem, but he still says he doesn’t see himself as a bully and that there are things he wouldn’t change. It’s more like he wants people to stop ragging on him, and is trying to establish that he’s not a creep that would drive someone to suicide. However I distinctly remember him saying on The View in early 2008 late 2007 that if Britney killed herself it wouldn’t be his fault. Barbara Walters asked him iif he ever feels bad for ragging on celebrities, and he said “If Britney committed suicide tomorrow and died, she would be the only one to blame I think.” Perez wants to seem like a decent guy, but we already know how he is, he’s shown us for years, and it’s going to take a lot more than talk to redefine himself.

    GLAAD calls out 50 Cent for promoting violence against gay community

    fp_5498144_twelve_aar_07281
    50 Cent and Perez Hilton were involved in some kind of Twitter flamewar, with 50 posting a really obnoxious tweet against gay people. I checked 50 Cent’s official Twitter and he’s since deleted the tweet that GLAAD called him out on. He has a bunch of other tweets in defense of his friend, boxer Floyd Mayweather, who is accused of domestic violence against one of his children’s mothers. It’s complicated and hard to decipher but 50 is basically calling the woman a liar and is also calling her fat while pointing out how hot Mayweather’s new girlfriend/fiance is. Classy.

    Getting back to the other issue, 50 posted a photo featuring two men in suits running away from a mob and tweeted “Perez Hilton calld me douchebag so I had my homie shoot up a gay wedding. wasnt his but still made me feel better.” In response, GLAAD issued a statement asking for an apology from 50, whose publicist refrained from commenting.

    The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) is mounting a campaign against 50 Cent after the rapper tweeted threatening comments to blogger Perez Hilton last week, including a violent photo of two men in suits running from a mob.

    “Perez Hilton calld me douchebag so I had my homie shoot up a gay wedding. wasnt his but still made me feel better,” read the tweet with the photo attached.
    Fitty also Tweeted Hilton: “stop being so sensitive its a joke. Your acting like a big baby” and, “my next song will make your sweet ass dance lol chill out.”

    “It’s wrong to make jokes and promote violence against the gay community,” said GLAAD spokesman Rich Ferraro. “Taking down the post is not enough. We wanted him to tell his Twitter followers that what he did was wrong.”

    A rep for 50 Cent had no comment. But it wasn’t the first time Fitty’s run afoul of the gay community. He told Playboy in a 2004 interview, “I ain’t into faggots. I don’t like gay people around me, because I’m not comfortable with what their thoughts are . . . I’d rather hang out with a straight dude. But women who like women, that’s cool.”

    His recent Twitter posts have also taken aim at unborn children and pregnant women: “I wanna do something that impact kids in a positive way, thats why im opening an abortion clinic. Ima call it 50/50 chance,” one of them read.

    On Friday, Fitty used nearly a dozen tweets to defend his friend, boxer Floyd Mayweather, who was arrested on charges of theft relating to a domestic-abuse complaint by his former girlfriend Josie Harris, the mother of three of his children.

    “Another case of angry baby mama wanting money,” he wrote.

    [From The NY Post]

    This is why impulsive celebrities need to have managers and publicists handle the press while they stay away from blogs and Twitter. At least then they’ll only say bigoted stupid things in interviews when they’re not supervised properly. Speaking of that, John Mayer deleted his Twitter account recently, as did Amanda Bynes. Both of them have a propensity to say dumb sh*t, on Twitter and off. 50 isn’t going to delete his Twitter account, though. This isn’t a one-off for him. Like LeAnn Rimes, he seems to be on a roll.

    Demi Moore’s bikini-wearing Twitter photos start a horrible trend

    lisarinna

    Oh, the petty little famewhores and their desire for any kind of attention. Last week, before Star Magazine reported that Ashton Kutcher was maybe-boning a hot blonde at Madeo, Demi Moore had twit-pic’d a few photos of herself posing in her bikini (photos here). They got a lot of play because of the cheating story, but they probably would have gotten a lot of play anyway, just because Demi – at 47 years old – acts like a tween girl playing with gadgets. Anyway, Lisa Rinna decided to copy Demi’s famewhore moves by posting photos of herself with the message: “Doin the Demi! Power to the 47yr olds!!!!! She is my idol! :) UGH.

    But of course, that’s not the end of it. Demi is so happy that “the youngsters” are talking about her, she somehow managed to talk another famewhore into doing another bikini photo shoot. He’s a 19 year old named Dave Days, and this is Dave in a bikini (via Demi’s Twitter):

    davedays

    And Lisa Rinna convinced her husband Harry Hamlin to do the same:

    harryhamlin

    And of course Perez Hilton had to get involved (gross).

    Basically, we are an empire in decline. And this is why.

    Perez Hilton shares his weight loss secrets, with “before” picture (update: another pic)

    perezbefore
    Controversial gossip blogger Perez Hilton has scored an article in In Touch weekly highlighting his weight loss. Perez first lost weight in the summer of 2008 but it’s somehow still noteworthy. He tells In Touch about his fitness regime and how the super fit celebrities provide motivatation to keep the weight off.

    perezafter

    Hollywood blogger Perez Hilton has made a career out of poking fun at celebrities, but says he could no longer exclude himself from the finger pointing when he ballooned up to 248 pounds two years ago. Perez, whose real name is Mario Lavandeira, says he was so ashamed of his body, he took a long, hard look in the mirror and vowed to make a change. And now, committed to staying active seven days a week and sticking to a healthy diet, he has shed 61 pounds and transformed his life. Here, Perez, 32, exclusively tells In Touch how he lost the weight — and why he won’t stop until he has a six-pack!

    When did you decide that you needed to drop the pounds?
    I began my journey toward leading a healthier life in January 2008. Looking at those before pictures, I’m horrified that I let myself get to that place. It was not healthy and it was not pretty.

    How did you start the process to get where you are today?
    I did it slowly. I began by just eating healthy, and a month later, I started to incorporate a little bit of exercise — just walking for about 30 minutes a day — and then I became motivated to do more and more.

    So what’s your current exercise routine?
    I have two trainers who I work out with in the gym Mondays through Thursdays. On Fridays and Saturdays I do Pilates, Sundays I do yoga, and I also do spinning.

    Is there a celeb whose body inspires you to work out?
    David Beckham and Zac Efron. Zac looks amazing — I want abs like that!

    For Perez’s full exclusive interview and more about his healthy new lifestyle, pick up the latest copy of In Touch, on newsstands this week.

    [From In Touch Weekly, received via e-mail]

    For all the reasons to hate on Perez, I can’t bash him for eating too many carbs. I just don’t have it in me to make fun of people for getting heavy. (Cult member Kirstie Alley excepted.) Good for him for losing weight and getting healthy. The guy used to work out of a coffee shop and down muffins all day. No wonder he got big. Plus, he’s just as unattractive when he’s thin. He lost the weight but his appearance will always be secondary to his defensive brand of mean snark.

    I was recently watching a video on Radar Online featuring actresses interviewed at a Reebok-sponsored fitness house or something. It included actresses Rosario Dawson, Emmy Rossum and Lindsay Price giving fitness tips. They recommended taking group classes, making sure to wear a sports bra and drinking a lot of water. My favorite quote was from Lindsay Price (of the sadly canceled Eastwick and Lipstick Jungle) who said “I think everyone’s trying to find the new diet or the new exciting exercise. To stay fit I think it’s just math. You’ve gotta burn more than you take in.” It’s simple really but getting it done can be complicated. (I’ve been using the free FitDay.com to count calories along with having success with Weight Watchers. Neither are our direct sponsors.)

    Who am I kidding, I just wanted to post Perez’s shirtless pictures to point and laugh.

    Update: here’s another higher resolution picture. Thanks to In Touch for sending the story and pics. Credit: Caroline Greyshock.

    Is Miley Cyrus being classy & professional about Perez Hilton?

    Miley Cyrus flashes a peace sign outside of the David Letterman show in NYC, NY on June 17, 2010 where the singer made an appearance. Fame Pictures, Inc

    Miley Cyrus is still on her media tour! Last night it was David Letterman, and this morning is was Good Morning America. Since I’m having a bad really bad day and I don’t give a sh-t, I’m just going to try to find some of the better quotes from her Letterman interview – from what I could see, she didn’t really say anything groundbreaking. Let’s see – when asked about how she was growing up too fast, Miley said: “I’ve gone through awesome things and I’ve gotten to perform and do what I love. I don’t think I’ve missed out on anything, but it’s hard with the comments and growing up. You can YouTube me, because half the comments are like, ‘She sounds like crap!’ I’m like, ‘At least I’m singing live, so take that!’” Fascinating, right? Snore.

    Oh, but Miley did get Letterman to laugh. He was telling her that her career is “the kind of thing that’s so hard, maybe only a 17-year-old could do it really. You gotta have that energy.” Miley replied: “But you did it — see there’s just a handful of people, and you’re one of them. The only two 17-year-old girls that made it, me and you.” Here’s a clip:

    Meanwhile, Miley was more subdued and serious for her Good Morning America appearance. They got her to talk about Perez Hilton and the Photoshopped vadge, and Miley was… not really upset by it, it seems. She just says, “There are people that are negative just to be that way. You’ve got to push through all that and just be like ‘This is my life.‘ ” What?

    With her longtime hit show Hannah Montana coming to an end, Miley Cyrus is ready to let her own personality take center stage. And that includes a racy music video that’s stirred up a bit of controversy for the 17-year-old.

    “You have to be who you are to the full,” Cyrus said during a Good Morning America interview Friday, dressed in a studded leather jacket, David Bowie T-shirt and ripped black jeans. “There’s nothing that I’m holding back. And that’s what I want to give to my girl fans. Just be who you are.”

    In fact, Cyrus claims that her newest album Can’t Be Tamed showcases the real Miley Cyrus. “This record is the first album where it’s completely me,” she says.

    In a career that puts her right in the spotlight, Cyrus admits that growing up as a celebrity isn’t always easy. “It’s always going to be hard because there’s so much stuff you’ve got to get through before you an get to the stuff that’s real,” she says. “There’s all the people that are like, ‘Yes! It’s gonna be great! You’re the biggest thing ever!’ when really, I just want the truth. ”

    Alluding to the Perez Hilton paparazzi photo scandal, Cyrus says, “There are people that are negative just to be that way. You’ve got to push through all that and just be like ‘This is my life.’ ”

    Of course, with a life that includes being friends with Bret Michaels, things aren’t all bad. Two the performed together on Good Morning America, singing a duet of “Every Rose Has Its Thorn,” which appears on Cyrus’s new album as a dedication to her mom, Leticia “Tish” Cyrus. “Our families have been friends for a while,” says Michaels. “She’s a great musician and she’s one of those people who will make that huge transition into remaining a superstar. She can rock it for sure.”

    And it seems Michaels was a big musical influence on Cyrus as a child. “My first concert was a Poison concert,” she says. “That was an interesting night. I was probably about 8 and my mom dragged me and my brother.”

    Sounds like Miley isn’t too mad, I guess. Good for her? Sure. I have mixed feelings because I think the whole Miley-is-a-victim-of-Perez thing just gave her a mountain of publicity, most of which probably benefited her greatly. Still, it was a scrummy thing for Perez to do, and I was seriously expecting Miley, Billy Ray and Tish (and Noah!) to all have multiple interviews bashing Perez, and that didn’t happen. Maturity? Class? Dignity? In the Cyrus family?!?
