Poppa Cyrus Defends Miley's Pole Dancing!

Filed under: Miley Cyrus

ap090809028237__opt1.jpg

We give it two years till her sex tape is leaked!

Billy Ray Cyrus doesn't think that anything is wrong with his daughter Miley's pole dancing at the Teen Choice Awards last week.

"You know what? I just think that Miley loves entertaining people," he told Access Hollywood.

Some feel that a 16-year old Disney star's entertainment should not be geared toward moving men's peens!

"She loves singing [and] songwriting," he adds. "I always tell her to love what you're doing and stay focused for the love of the art and not worry so much about opinion."

This isn't about her! It's about your terrible parenting skills!

"I give my kids a lot of freedom to make the art they wanna make, and make it in their own voice. I think it's important," said Billy of his cash cows children.

Miley's art = Mickey Mouse masturbating onto piles of cash!

Just sayin'!

  1. 1

    dont like her… hate perez though.



  2. 2

    Well, I guess we've figured out where Miley gets her sense of judgment from…



  3. 3

    first?!? and i really hate bill ray cyrus like so much. its his fault his whole family are all such fuck ups.



  4. 4

    first.



  5. 5

    back to slutty cyrus!



  6. 6

    I DONT CARE WHAT HE SAYS! THAT WAS JUST WRONG… JUST SAYIN! CUZ I HAVE NIECES THAT WATCH HER AND I DONT WANT THEM TO GET A BAD EXAMPLE FOR HER ACTING LIKE BRITNEY SPEARS



  7. 7

    give it a rest perez already you know you wish that was you on that pole and a girl hahaha



  8. 8

    lol look ppl i think it was funny at the teen choice awards if Party In the Usa such a good song some ppl wouldnt say crap cuz most r jealous of her and im not saying all and if any one got a prob with this post than oh well perez love ur bloggs



  9. 9

    I also have a 16 year old daughter, and I give her quite a bit of freedom too, but that would be the day when I let her swing around a pole like that!!!



  10. 10

    question….Why was there a stripper pole there in the first place? I guess teen choice awards are now promoting sex? Maybe they have some kind of deal with the condom company.



  11. 11

    I say by next year she'll be seen drinking underage.. and in Jamie Lynn Spear's position. By the time she's 19 she'll be in rehab.. along with her little sister Noah!



  12. 12

    A good, Christian girl who sets herself to be a role model for young, impressionable kids should not be pole dancing! She needs a stronger family support system…this is sad. And stop trying to be a christian advocate!



  13. 13

    and who do you think you are: the moral center of shitland??



  14. 14

    Britney was doing this at her age… but Miley's also a Disney star.. idk. When I saw this performance I was like, dayumm sexified much!? lol.



  15. 15

    SHE WASNT FRICKING POLE DANCING!!

    Honestly, I watched that video and she held onto a bloddy pole and every now and then crouched down. That is not pole dancing. And if you think it is then you should go watch a few pole dancers.



  16. 16

    I wonder how much freedom he'll be talking about when she's pregnant in a year or strung out on drugs. He and his wife only seem to be interested in how much money his girl can bring in instead of worrying more about what is appropriate for a 16 year old girl. I wonder just how many dirty old men were turned on by her performance on the pole in those barely there shorts.



  17. 17

    Holy fuck, do you really call that Pole Dancing? LMFAO grow up, seriously you are green with jealousy it's PATHETIC.

    She's not even remotely close to pole dancing.



  18. 18

    I've seen POLE DANCING and THAT GIRL was NOT pole dancing. She was holding onto a pole for balance …NOT ONCE DID SHE SLING A LEG AROUND THAT POLE!!! You people are soft in the head.



  19. 19

    "art"
    lol



  20. 20

    ahahhaha perez you are so funny



  21. 21

    well then she can "entertain" those nasty old men at the strip club… She's going to be a hot mess at 20 yrs old. poor her.

  22. xadax says – reply to this


    22

    She was NEVER artistic to me… and she's not the next britney even though if she sings live

  23. xadax says – reply to this


    23

    She was NEVER artistic to me.



  24. 24

    I have no problem with sexuality! I am a pretty open with my own sexuality. BUT I have a HUUUGGGEEE problem with children being over-sexualized! She is a child and this behavior breeds all kinds of weird shit! Like that crazy stalker Miley has been entertaining recently! She is a role model to my 4 YEAR OLD niece and this is not OK!! What she needs is SOME GOD DAMNED SELF-RESPECT!! My father (bless his soul) would have NEVER, EVER, EVER allowed me to do this because he would have wanted to protect my innocence. Too Bad Mr Achy Breaky Heart doesn't love his daughter as much as my father loved me…..I feel sorry for her…all the money and fame in the world can NEVER buy self-worth!



  25. 25

    they are horrible parents, but shes a major slut. its not all their fault!!



  26. 26

    LMAO



  27. 27

    white trash



  28. 28

    Billy Ray….father of the year!!!!!!!!!!



  29. 29

    I find it amazing how the MEDIA portrays a teenager's performance geared towards kids, tweens and teens that most likely didn't even read into that performance as Miley dancing like a stripper. No..but the media makes sure to bring it to the youths attention. My daughter watched it and her comment was that the ice cream cart's pole was missing an umbrella…never did it occur to her this was a stripper pole.



  30. 30

    Re: texazgirl713 – if anything britney spears acts better then that now an days;;miley cyrus is her own slut.



  31. 31

    What ever helps you sleep at night Billy Ray…what ever helps you sleep at night….your daughter is a 16 year old whore….did you know that there are girls all over the world who do the same thing as Miley…only they dont have a choice! And they are not dancing for teen fans…they are dancing for fat american pedophiles…



  32. 32

    listen for a SIXTEEN YEAR OLD, having that pole between your legs IS pole dancing! I wouldn't want my daughter to watch this slut strut her stuff!!



  33. 33

    terrible. and she looks at her parents in the audience for approval and they stand up and cheer. yeah, that's right, that's my girl, use the poll, work it, work it!



  34. 34

    "ART"????? WTF????? im so sick of these stupid hillbillys making up dumass excuses for their bad bad judgement!!



  35. 35

    Re: Lady_Saccharine_Sweetness – are u kidding me? britney spears was a better role model at 16!! i remember i never saw her pole dance at all!! she didnt get nasty till she was 18 lol

  36. KL14 says – reply to this


    36

    HAHAHAH um that wasnt even pole dancing..
    so if she touches a pole its considered pole dancing?
    hahaaaa everyone needs to lay off of her..my god



  37. 37

    SLUTTY CYRUS BACK IN DA HIZ HOUSE (BARN YARD) lmao.



  38. 38

    She fucks her daddy anyway, so what is he supposed to say?
    thats just how it is in the white south.



  39. 39

    I SAW HER PERFORMANCE…IT WAS TOTALLY INAPPROPRIATE FOR A 15 YEAR OLD. HER FATHER IS AN IDIOT WHO JUST LOOKS THE OTHER WAY…SHE'S DEFINITELY ON THE ROAD TO SLUTISM! BUT WTF IS UP WITH THE TEEN CHOICE AWARDS APPROVING OF SUCH A PERFORMANCE?



  40. 40

    the pole was there for sexualization hints and controversy. point blank = they knew exactly what they were doing, and trying to make it "look" innocent



  41. 41

    He's completely insane! If he thinks it's okay that your daughter's a whore at 16 (and earlier) he seriously needs to get his mental health checked! God, that whole family is deranged!



  42. 42

    Art?
    What does she know about art?

    She said she admired Britney spears for Christ sake!

    On top of that she can't even SING!



  43. 43

    She walked out of a trailer! I was like yup, that makes sense.

    It's not so much that she wants to be sexy, she's sixteen. Two years ago when I was sixteen I wanted to be sexy too - it's the age, ya know? But she promotes the whole good girl Christian thingy, purity ring crapola and her fans are all youngin's. Be careful what you do in public girly! Save it for your boyfriend.



  44. 44

    How could he defend that?!?! She's a 16 year old girl wearing the shortest booty shorts possible without being censored, and grinding on a pole with a black lace bra showing. WTF??!?! How is this ART, monsieur cyrus??



  45. 45

    Also what kind of father is Billy Ray? If my dad saw me doing that he would have beat the shiz out of me. 100 times worse if it was being BROADCASTED TO MILLIONS.



  46. 46

    Dude. If you think she was pole dancing then you've ever been to a strip club–what am I saying? Well at least never been to a hetero strip club.



  47. 47

    LOL entertainment geared towards moving mens' peens HAHA. American pop culture has always been like this with young girls though…paedophilia disguised behind puritanism.



  48. 48

    OH MY FUCKING GOD PEOPLE! SHE HOLDS ON TO A POLE THAT IS WHEELED ACROSS THE STAGE AND GETS SHIT FOR IT WHILE VANESSA HUDGENS, ON THE OTHER HAND, GETS CALLED OUT ON HER NUDE PHOTO SCANDAL AND THAT GETS CUT FROM BROADCAST?>!!!???? WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE. MILEY IS ACTUALLY A NORMAL PRECOCIOUS TEENAGER, ITS THAT OTHER GIRL WHO SHOULD BE CONSIDERED THE FUCKING WHORE. not that she is i just think there's a terrible double standard with the two.



  49. 49

    STFU PEREZ!! WUTS MORE ATROCIOUS - WHICH U FAILED TO MENTION - IS MILEY "BUCKTOOTH" CYRUS' POOR LIP SYNCING SKILLS. SHE CAN LEARN FROM BRIT-BRIT THO.. APPARENTLY SHE HEARD HER ON THE RADIO. YEA.. LET'S "PARTY IN THE USA". JUST SAYIN.



  50. 50

    First of all, I wouldn't call that pole dancing. She was entertaining people. I thought the whole song was a very fun performance. Good Job, Miley. Don't let jealous people get you down. Keep up the good work! I love your music!



  51. 51

    Seriously, has anyone ever watched “Hannah Montana?” Miley is totally sassy to her dad, her brother, her friends and her teachers. Her character is not really that nice. So why is everyone making this girl their child’s “role model?” Doesn’t it make sense that the pole dancing would be the next move for her…I agree with Perez…Miley is heading down the road that most child stars travel…it’s a shame really.

  52. Low says – reply to this


    52

    She was NOT pole dancing.. A pole came up and she grabbed sang a note and that was it. She's a star not a "normal" kid. Give her credit…. she's still a major star even after all your bashing.



  53. 53

    SOONER OR LATER WE'LL SEE HER ON THE POLE. USUALLY HAPPENS TO THESE DISNEY AFTER THEY HIT 18. GUESS WE HAVE 2 MORE YRS OF SLUTTY CYRUS BEFORE WE SEE THE REAL DEAL AT SCORES.



  54. 54

    well i think that for the first and probably only time perez is right!!!! this isnt about miley!!!!!!!!!!! i really really really dont like her but this isnt her foult its her parents!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they dont race her well when she fucks up, sumple as that!!!!!! everyone should blame billy and that barbie wife of his not the kid that doesnt even has direction!!!!!!!!!!!!! i dont feel sorry for miley but its ot totally her foult



  55. 55

    No father would want to see their 16 year old daughter on a pole like this. There is something off when a father is not all all perturbed by this sight!



  56. 56

    it is just a stupid pole !!! why is everybody making such a bid deal out of if ???



  57. 57

    Re: dcultravillain – seriously? vanessa was considered a whore!!! she was cut out of the fkn show!!! she was on perez hilton's blog! everybody commented on that!! up untill they saw the pictures of miley on a pole!! and ok she was on the pole for balance but dont go up and down it like u need more attention! plus She's move of a disney star then vanessa is,babys look up to her! and look how she dress's let alone act. theirs no excuse for both of them.



  58. 58

    Re: HollywoodTown – EXACTLY! That was nothing!



  59. 59

    buck tooth hillbilly



  60. 60

    trashy. its more than a stretch to call what miley does art.



  61. 61

    She is almost 17 and she isn't pole dancing at all. Give her space to grow.



  62. 62

    I guess I'm not shocked because I'm old enough to remember who it is saying this. This old guy turned country/pop music into an ass-wiggling contest back in the day, and no one could beat old Billy Ray at ass-wiggling back then. He has no problem with his girl being an "entertainer", why am I not shocked?
    Whether we like it or not, the pole is a form of dance being taught in gyms now because it's fun and a cardio workout. It doesn't mean the girl's a whore by any means. She's not going to write any new books, ok? Dancing is her career, poor thing.



  63. 63

    Honestly, go to a strip club and see what pole dancin really is, leave the girl alone.



  64. 64

    Re: Los Anjealous – When did she swing on the pole?



  65. 65

    Guess what America. . . children grow up! They get interested in sex. None of this is surprising.



  66. 66

    Miley cyrus is A TEENAGER and She Needs A Bit Of FReedom But Not A lot Of Freedom Sometimes You C Her And She looks Like A Slut



  67. 67

    I bet you wanna see a sex tape of hers you pedo!!



  68. 68

    Re: FemaleFilmMajor – Shes not a child, shes 16 going on 17.



  69. 69

    It just kills me how these parents of the teen, tween stars are acting as if they are their children's "friend" instead of being a parent. Look at Lilo, her mom is the same way and look at the road that chick is on. It's too bad these parents are more concerned about the cash than their kids well being.



  70. 70

    Re: carriebradshaw – then why are you even on here moron???



  71. 71

    FOR FUCK SAKES just cuz she was holding on 2 a pole doesnt mean she was pole dancing fuck



  72. 72

    ok so here are the negatives about miley's performance on the teen choice awards:
    1. shirt: you were able to see her bra!
    2. shorts: are the kind of shorts that NO ONE should see
    3. Dancing: UM, can i say slutty much?
    4. Pole: ok how many of threw up before this, than that just made you vomit some more!
    but there were a few postives of the preformance:
    1. Nice song
    And thats about it.
    but whats even nastier/wierder about all this her dad is proud?!
    any dad of a teenage girl would not want in a millon of years to see thier "little girls" dancing on stage wearing a revealing outfit, dancing like a slut, and grinding on a pole.
    Any if anyone disagrees with any of this just please explain why!



  73. 73

    the part in the picture lasted about 5 seconds, that was all there was too it

  74. VGirl says – reply to this


    74

    IS NOT ABOUT ART HERE! It's abou her audience..she was intended to be a kid's idol, which is why this seems a bit wrong. Remeber when britney statrted? she was 16 and acting like Lilita all "innocent" but really sexy, BUT she was never intended to be a kid's idol….she was just a young singer…people still talked crap but no one really care as much as Miley cuz again she was intended for a young audience. You wanna pole dance and not be called a slut? wait till you're not in disney anymore or at least a couple of year ya know….whe women NATUALLY start acting sexier more pibicly (or t least that's how is supposed to be) but then again this is just about piblicity!



  75. 75

    Re: FemaleFilmMajor – exactly!!!! my dad (R.I.P.) even though hes gone he would have been SO disappionted in me and ashamed if i ever did that!



  76. 76

    that picture is disturbing and it looks like we've got a new joe simpson on our hands!!



  77. 77

    miley….
    we r

  78. 78

    he was a chippendales dancer! A FUCKING STRIPPER! It runs in the blood

  79. VGirl says – reply to this


    79

    Re: WMariah – so true!!! I think I would have said the same and I'm almost 23! hahaha! also is sad that people are so focused on this and I actually liked how she did a mini tribute to MJ. It is media and her though she really didn't need that pole :S

  80. VGirl says – reply to this


    80

    Re: BeNiceYall – 100% right



  81. 81

    She should have some freedom about ideas to entertain her TWEEN audience.. but her parents should have drawn the line with the pole. That's kind risky.

  82. fml(: says – reply to this


    82

    woahhh, ok entertain not strip
    a cool dance would of been FINE.
    DUMB SLUT.



  83. 83

    lmao perez i love u!XD Miley's art = Mickey Mouse masturbating onto piles of cash priceless!!!lmao



  84. 84

    LOL WHATS NEW!!! dude omg i know she does that just to tick ppl off lover her!!! shes doing that on purpose shes not that stupid.keep your hate comments to yourself!! RESPECT



  85. 85

    all she did was hold the pole…. it wasn't inappropriate. omg



  86. 86

    SO SAD! lOOK AT THE YOUNG CHILDREN IN THE BACKGROUND….



  87. 87

    hes not,but dumb



  88. 88

    Why must they all go down the trashy route? It's like lemmings jumping off a cliff.



  89. 89

    Wtf incase ppl missed the tca's miley wasn't dancing all over a pole and swinging her legs around like an ACTUAL pole dancer…. hmm ever wonder why Perez only put up the pic off her going DOWN on the pole, watch the whole video to know the facts



  90. 90

    Couldn't you just picture this trashy biache and that other sl-t Britney making cheap lesbo pr0n videos in some trailer house a few years from now?



  91. 91

    STUPID miley. she has not talent and is fugly looking.



  92. 92

    Walt Disney must be spinning in his grave.



  93. 93

    u know as much as i hate to admit it she seems pretty smart, even though her skanky stuff i don't see a sex tape or an unexpected pregnancy in at least 5 years…. but again thats what i thought of brit… hope i'm wrong



  94. 94

    lets make this clear. she is only 16. everyone knows right?



  95. 95

    The whole loser Cyrus clan need to worship in Hell, where their true god lives.



  96. 96

    Re: athenaaa213Re: carriebradshaw
    Then gtfo you idiot, what are you doing on his site?

    That was to athena. Anyway… I give it 1 year till a sex tape is leaked.



  97. 97

    Re: xxlilmisslaurenx
    lilmisslauren, your a girl, yes? Then you should know that most girls don't watch online pole dancing. And TBH, Miley was so pole dancing.. HENSE- she was dancing on a pole.



  98. 98

    Perez is a freaking Idiot!



  99. 99

    I remember when she was on Oprah or something, being commended on how wholesome she was, and what a role model she was for younger kids…. and not long after the first of her cell phone pictures came up. Super bad parenting, but hey…as long as she gets talked about in the media and is still popular, what do her parents care? Just another cash cow until she gets pregnant, starts doing drugs, or becomes an alcoholic and disappears…



  100. 100

    Miley really wants to be a stripper one day doesnt she!
