Miley Cyrus can claim that she was defending her mom against an overzealous paparazzo, a dude named Malack (@MalackInc!) Miley may claim that she was under the impression that the camera wielding Malack jostled her precious mother after the two left an eatery but what I saw as I viewed a video of the event is something quite different.
First I got a good look at Miley through the glass applying some sort of lip balm (or making a weird obscene gesture – watch for yourself and decide). Then Miley and mom left the cafe and the poor photographer had the audacity to move past the mom – but he did not push her nor was he rough. Miley began attacking verbally, and even pushing, the hapless Malack – exhibiting all of the behavior of a spoiled bully.
According to ONTD most comments were in favor of Miley but that is absurd since anyone who watched what actually happened saw that there was really nothing for her to get so mad about. Its amazing how these celebrities tend to be so down on the very people who are largely responsible for generating the conditions that lead to their fame and wealth.
Here you can hear and see what Malack had to say about the incident – he was polite and gracious.
