Justin Timberloak defends Miley Cyrus VMA performance
Justin Timberlake had defended Miley Cyrus’s controversial VMA performance.
Justin, also a former Disney star, has defended the Hannah Montana actress, saying: “It’s the VMAs, what did you guys expect?”
“I like Miley, I like her a lot,” he told Fresh 102.7 in a radio interview on Tuesday.
“She’s young, she’s letting everyone know she’s grown up. It’s the VMAs. It’s not like she did it at the Grammys.”
Justin, who reunited with the rest of NSYNC at the ceremony, did admit he has been tickled by some of the pictures that have been doing the rounds on the internet.
“My favourite part of the Miley Cyrus performance is the Smith family reaction,” said Justin, referring to a still of Will, Jada, Jaden and Willow looking shocked as they watched from their seats.
It has since came to light, it was in fact taken when the Smiths were watching Lady Gaga’s performance of her song Applause.
The ‘Suit and Tie’ singer was also quick to point out that Miley isn’t exactly the first person to bring shock factor to the bash, even citing his ex-girlfriend Britney Spears for courting controversy.
“Madonna: Wedding suit, humping the stage. Britney: Strip tease.
“This is not an uncommon thing. I actually thought all the bears were really cool!”
