Gossip: Miley Cyrus
In a video of her 19th birthday party, Cyrus called herself a “stoner.” Is she smoking more than salvia?
Miley Cyrus may have moved on to stronger stuff than salvia, said EOnline​.com. The former Disney star came under fire this week when a video of her 19th birthday party hit the Internet. In it, Cyrus calls herself a “stoner” and then receives a cake featuring the image of reggae singer Bob Marley. “The cake was a joke,” said a spokesperson for Cyrus, who claimed friends have been calling the teen singer “Bob Miley” since she was filmed last year in the act of smoking the herbal hallucinogen salvia, which is legal in most states.
