Miley Cyrus Issues Second Apology, Gets Invited To White House

Written by Violet on February 9, 2009 – 10:40 pm -

Miley Cyrus will be heading to the White House to screen her new Hannah Montana movie with Malia and Sasha Obama, but before that, she had to clear up some things regarding her now infamous photo that some found offensive. The picture taken by another ‘friend’ (and released on the net – nice…) had Miley and her boyfriend Justin Gaston and others making what appeared to be ‘asian eyes.’

In her original statement, many felt she wasn’t really apologizing, just blowing off the blame with the excuse that she was making a goofy face with her pals, so no harm done. Cyrus faced another round of sharp criticism in the media and by some prominent Asian groups who felt she did not pay attention to their concerns. She has gone back to her blog to send out a more contrite apology.

“I really wanted to stress how sorry I am if the photo of me with my friends offended anyone. I have learned a valuable lesson from this and know that sometimes my actions can be unintentionally hurtful. I know everything is a part of GOD’s ultimate plan, and mistakes happen so that eventually I will become the woman he aspires me to be.”

This time around it sounds genuine. I think she felt attacked before, and perhaps rightfully so. I hope she has a chance to do things with her friends that don’t become national news because some one close to her releases/sells everything she does to the world.

The Obama girls will absolutely enjoy their experience with Miley for the Disney Hannah Montana movie.

Robert Pattinson Hates Wearing Contacts for ‘Twilight’ Role

Written by Violet on January 2, 2009 – 10:12 am -

 

Part of playing a vampire in the ‘Twilight’ films is looking the part described in the books. For the role of Edward Cullen, Robert Pattinson had to wear a golden, topaz colored pair of contacts to alter his eye color. According to Pattinson, these contacts are particularly uncomfortable and he felt like he had ‘sand in his eyes.’ They also stood in his way of emoting exactly what he wanted to portray in the scenes.

“It was frustrating as well because normally your eyes are saying something, but if you’ve got two orange blobs in your face it’s so annoying!”

It might have been difficult for him, but he will have to do it again as ‘New Moon’ starts filming in March.
