Miley Cyrus seems like a fun person to be around. I genuinely mean that. When not spanking people with flags, she’s dropping half a million bucks at a charity event that benefits the American Foundation for AIDS Research, all while getting drunk and wearing what appears to be backpack straps made out of leather. I’ve only been to one gala, and the only entertainment we got to distract us from the cold fish was a guy who played a bad Phish cover.
[Justin Timberlake] helped start the live auction off when he won a Damien Hirst painting for $80,000 followed by Rihanna taking home a pair of diamond Harry Winston earrings for $35,000. Miley Cyrus dropped a whopping $300,000 on a print of a naked woman by photographer Ryan McGinley after getting into bidding war with Rihanna and Ford.
Later, Cyrus, Rihanna and Ford donated another $200,000 each to the AIDS group.
“I’m a little drunk. That’s why I’m a half a million deep,” Cyrus said from the stage…”If I’m going to have a voice I would like to start an open dialogue about prevention and awareness and how people in the world have been effected by HIV and AIDS. Hopefully, I could break down people’s walls that have been built up around sexuality. I’m obviously not too embarrassed to talk about these things, especially with young people.” (Via)
It’s like she’s wearing nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all…
