I haven’t followed anything related to Miley Cyrus lately, or never as a matter of fact, as I can’t stand her and her big mouth, and she will eventually go away like a case of bad flu… anyway hasn’t Sinead O’Connor written one hundred open letters to straight this girl up? Four letters actually, but it seems like one hundred because I must have read about this sooooo many times I have lost count. Then the worst happened when the omnipresent and always-opinionated Amanda Palmer wrote to Sinead in defense of Miley! Don’t we have enough of these condescending open letters, I couldn’t care less about celebrities sending to each other patronizing advises, I hate the three of them for doing so, and being so full of certitudes,… at least Miley is young!
But when I saw the name Miley Cyrus associated with the word ‘toilet’ in the news, I got immediately intrigued for some reason. According to Spin and Complex, Dr. Luke (which is the stupid name of the producer behind numerous hits from Cyrus, Katy Perry, Kelly Clarkson…), didn’t think that Cyrus’ song ‘Wrecking Ball’ would be a hit, and his name isn’t the most stupid thing about the guy, he apparently likes to bet huge amount of money!
In a profile of the guy in the New Yorker, Cyrus reveals:
Contrary to what he thinks, Dr. Luke isn’t always right. I bet him that ‘Wrecking Ball’ would go to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and it did. Now he has to buy me a ten-thousand-dollar toilet. I’ll be thinking of him every time I go.’
She is the winner in the story, the winner of a $10,000 toilet, but why the hell would she bet a toilet out of all the things? Is it another of her way to get the attention? Or is it just the perfect metaphor for her? I just wish that, for this amount of money, the thing comes with some kind of mp3 player so that she can listen to her shitty songs when she seats on it! After all this is where her music belongs.
