Update: The Miley Cyrus Tattoo Scandal

Eric J @ Gone Hollywood | Sunday, December 6, 2009

I never thought that I would be stepping up in defense of Miley Cyrus, but here it goes.

The past week, the web’s been all aflutter regarding the pictures of Miley’s “terrible white trash” tattoo which “proves she’s no role model for kids” and “shows that she’s trying to escape her good girl image”. Well, a lot of bloggers might want to figure out if they like to eat their words raw or cooked.

It turns out that the tattoo, which reads “Just Breathe”, is a dedication to Miley’s close friend Vanessa, who passed away from Cystic Fibrosis three years ago. Cystic Fibrosis is a devastating chronic disease that is usually found in children. It causes progressive disability, lung blockages and various other horrible symptoms, often leading to the death of infants, children and young adults. Which means that a whole shitload of bloggers are now one step closer to hell. Congratulations, I’ll see you all there.

Miley also has “Just Breathe” on the neck of one of her guitars.

“Just Breathe” is the slogan for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, which Miley Cyrus is a big supporter of.
