Last December, Miley Cyrus took the bong hit viewed around the world. Now the "Hannah Montana" star has finally responded to her incident with psychedelic herb salvia, footage of which infamously leaked online.
"I'm not perfect," Cyrus recently told Marie Claire regarding her use of salvia, which is a legal drug in most states including California, where she reportedly smoked it. "I made a mistake ... I'm disappointed in myself for disappointing my fans."
But Cyrus revealed a different reaction, after her interviewer pushed back with empathy, asking, "But do you really think it was a mistake? Obviously college kids your age all over America are smoking bongs with a lot more than salvia in them."
The Disney star's response: "But they're not Miley Cyrus. They're not role models. So for me it was a bad decision, because of my fans and because of what I stand for."
Reportedly filmed just five days after her eighteenth birthday, the video of Miley's salvia bong hit features the singer/actress declaring that she was "having a little bit of a bad trip."
At least she's owning up to her mistake. It's definitely not the worst thing she could do... and considering she was 18 and it's legal, and Hannah Montana is over, it's a bit dramatic for everyone to have reacted the way they did. With that said, Miley hit the nail on the head when she referred to the fact that she's a role model for young girls. Hopefully she doesn't go further down the wrong path though.
She is so 2000 and late. It's all about Xtina's national anthem now
Anyhow, great response Miley! I really agree. She's young and really deserves to have the option to experiment, like most normal people around that age do. However she is Miley Cyrus and it looks bad because of what she is supposed to represent

Damn! She hit it right on the nose! I'm glad she was able to own up to it and admit she was wrong. (Although I still think it wasn't that big of a deal.)
Anyways I don't know how the general public is going to ever get over this. Her little girl image is now gone and shes being compared to Lindsay now who is is REAL bad shape. They should though. She just wants to have fun.
