Miley Cyrus Speaks on Big Bang Video, 18th Birthday Plans and More

What was it like for Miley Cyrus to make out with Keven Zegers in the music video for The Big Bang ? How will this singer celebrate her 18th birthday in just a few days? During a break from rehearsing for her appearance at this Sunday’s American Music Awards, Miley answered these questions and more. To wit: “Kevin is actually the boyfriend of someone that works very closely with me,” Miley says. “So there was definitely a little awkwardness since she was on set or whatever.” For understandable reasons, Miley remained mum on the topic of her parents’ divorce, not commenting on rumors that she played an indirect role in their split. But she did tackle a number of other subjects, from turning 18 on November 23 and more. Watch the interview below. Miley Cyrus Speaks Out

Bristol Palin Defends Willow Palin, Sort of Apologizes For Gay Slur

With 16-year-old Willow Palin catching some serious heat for calling an old classmate a f***ot on Facebook, older sister Bristol stepped up to apologize. “Willow and I shouldn’t have reacted to the negative comments about our family. We apologize,” Bristol Palin wrote on her Facebook wall. “On a nicer note, thank you for supporting the great competition in Dancing with the Stars!” Nice plug. Bristol Palin has her sister Willow’s back . A few hours later, B-Palin added: “Thank you supporters who continue to support. The haters are already pulling out all the stops this week to destroy.” Yes, there it is. The conspiracy angle. Some misguided defenders of the Palins have opined that using the word f—-t is only bad because it’s Willow. Bristol did not specifically mention Willow’s gay slur directed at Tre , some dude who supposedly went to their school, and who updated his Facebook page Sunday with, ” Sarah Palin’s Alaska is failing so hard right now.” Not to take this biting criticism of her mom’s show lightly, Willow retorted: “Haha your so gay. I have no idea who you are, But what I’ve seen pictures of, your disgusting … My sister had a kid and is still hot…Tre stfu. Your such a f—-t.” For her part, Bristol joined Willow in bashing Tre, writing: “You’re running your mouth just to talk s–t.” She also singled out some guy named “Jon,” writing: “You’ll be as successful as my baby daddy, And actually I do work my ass off.” “I’ve been a single mom for the last two years.” Willow has since deleted her Facebook account. Should we care what a teenager says? Is it any less bad because the word is common? The question remains … Is Willow Palin homophobic?

Willow Palin: Cyberbully or Immature Teen?

Willow Palin used homophobic slurs on Facebook, but some bloggers asked whether that makes her a cyberbully or just an immature 16-year-old. The Huffington Post rounds up reactions from bloggers including Slate’s Emily Bazelon, Andrew Sullivan at The Atlantic, and Salon’s Mary Elizabeth Williams. Sullivan, a gay conservative, took the harshest line against the posts, and wondered what they say about the Palin family. “Using the word gay to mean lame as an adjective is a different thing than calling a young man a ‘faggot.’ Willow is 16 years' old,” wrote Sullivan. “Who taught her to use language like that? And the excuse from the Palins? Not disciplining or an apology – but a defense: A source connected to the Palin family tells TMZ that Willow doesn't usually use this kind of language, but she felt like she and her family were being attacked.” Bristol, Willow's older sister, apologized for the posts Wednesday on Facebook. added by: TimALoftis

George Soros: Quit Supporting obama

ASHINGTON — At a private meeting on Tuesday afternoon, George Soros, a longtime supporter of progressive causes, voiced blunt criticism of the Obama administration, going so far as to suggest that Democratic donors direct their support somewhere other than the president. The Hungarian-American financier was speaking to a small side gathering of donors who had convened in Washington D.C. for the annual gathering of the Democracy Alliance — a formal community of well-funded, progressive-minded individuals and activists. According to multiple sources with knowledge of his remarks, Soros told those in attendance that he is “used to fighting losing battles but doesn't like to lose without fighting.” “We have just lost this election, we need to draw a line,” he said, according to several Democratic sources. “And if this president can't do what we need, it is time to start looking somewhere else.” Michael Vachon, an adviser to Soros, did not dispute the comment, though he stressed that there was no transcript of a private gathering to check. Vachon also clarified that the longtime progressive giver was not referring to a primary challenge to the president. added by: Ihatethemall

Willow Palin Defends Sarah’s TLC Program in Homophobic, Poorly-Written Facebook Rant

With Bristol Palin earning a place in the Dancing With the Stars finals , this week should have been a triumph for Alaska’s best-known family. No longer. Willow Palin, Bristol’s sis and the 16-year-old daughter of former governor/VP nominee Sarah Palin, went on a homophobic rant on Facebook this week. That’s what happens when fellow users bash her mom’s new reality show, Sarah Palin’s Alaska . Feisty teen grizzlies gotta stand up for their mama! Sarah Palin has taught Willow such good values. And grammar . Willow’s target, a person named Tre who goes to school with the Palin kids, wrote a status update the night of the TLC show’s premiere, which read: “Sarah Palin’s Alaska is failing so hard right now.” Willow Palin fired back, “Haha your so gay. I have no idea who you are, But what I’ve seen pictures of, your disgusting. My sister had a kid and is still hot.” She later added, “Tre stfu. You such a f*ggot. I’m sticking up for my family.” Bristol Palin herself then came to her family’s defense as well, firing off a biting report to Tre, “You’re running your mouth just to talk sh*t.” What a class act this family is. The girls could have simply cited the ratings, which proved Sarah Palin’s Alaska was anything but a failure, netting over five million viewers . But alas. All hell broke loose between Facebook critics and the Palins, with Bristol lashing out at someone named Jon (while also taking aim at Levi Johnston). “You’ll be as successful as my baby daddy,” she wrote. Ouch, Levi. That hurts man. Here’s a screen grab of Willow’s gay slurs and bad grammar. Seriously, girl. “Your” and “You’re” are not hard to learn. The brilliance of Willow Palin, ladies and gentlemen .
