Perez Hilton has come around a bit on Miley Cyrus, who he has been quite critical of at times, following her respectable hosting of Saturday Night Live . “I watched clips online,” he said. “I am Team Miley.” The turning point? “Once I stopped projecting onto her that which I wanted her to be and accepted her for whom she is right now, I thoroughly enjoy her.” “I’ve disassociated the Hannah Montana of the past. I’ve let go of any inkling of her being remotely a role model, and I just embrace her as the white Rihanna.” What does that mean, exactly? Explains the celebrity gossip expert: “Rihanna is not perfect. Rihanna has done a lot of things I don’t like. But I love Rihanna.” Rihanna has yet to respond to the comparison … but there’s no doubt she can Twerk up a storm in her own right. In fact, she sort of shames Miles. No offense, Miles. But the bad girl bar has been set high. While the Miley Cyrus- Sinead O’Connor feud was one of the few hot topics not mentioned on SNL, the blogger was asked to weigh in on that as well. “I think it’s a good tactic if you want publicity,” said Perez Hilton. “Miley is 20. So a 20-year-old is going to respond in a very feisty manner. And she did.” “And Miley also has an album coming out this Tuesday,” he notes, regarding Bangerz . “So, she is also going to milk what happened for publicity.” “I think Sinead’s intentions behind her original letter,” which encouraged Miley not to be a naked prostitute for the industry, “came from a good place.” “But the way she executed it , saying [Miley] is being exploited and a prostitute, that was wrong, because she obviously came from a misinformed place.”
