What’s up?
It’s Sussan Mourad here with Clevver News and Miley Cyrus has been a long standing supporter
of Britney Spears and now she’s speaking out amid the Free Britney movement.
Last year, Miley publicly supported the movement when she yelled Free Britney at one of her
concerts.
“Britney’s song was on, let’s go Britney, Britney’s song was on, Britney’s song
was on.
Free Britney!”
But now, as things have gotten more serious in Britney Spears’ conservatorship case,
Miley spoke out in an interview about how she really feels about everything that’s
been going on.
If you aren’t all caught up with the #FreeBritney movement, we did an entire video breaking
it down, which I’ve linked above for you.
Basically, fans have been rallying behind Britney because they think her recent social
media posts have been a cry for help amid her ongoing conservatorship case.
Britney’s father, Jamie Spears, has been in charge of her conservatorship since 2008.
While it's not 100% clear what the details of Britney's conservatorship are, fans know
that it means her dad Jamie is in charge of her assets, money, decisions, and even visitors.
All the while, Britney has still been working and bringing in money she allegedly has no
control over.
In court papers obtained by E! News, it was recently discovered that Britney paid her
lawyers and advisers a total of $1.2 million last year.
And those same files also showed that her father pocketed $128,000 for his role as her
conservator last year.
And speaking of her father, Jamie spoke out earlier this month after a recent court decision
to completely block the case from the public.
He told Page Six that quote, “All these conspiracy theorists don’t know anything.
The world don’t have a clue.
It’s up to the court of California to decide what’s best for my daughter.
It’s no one else’s business.”
Jamie also said that he’s been frustrated with the aggressiveness of the Free Britney
supporters.
Jamie explained that quote, “People are being stalked and targeted with death threats.
It’s horrible.
We don’t want those kinds of fans.
I love my daughter.
I love all my kids.
But this is our business.
It’s private.”
Many celebs have spoken out in support of the Free Britney movement including Ariel
Winter, Paris Hilton, Bella Thorne, Tinashe, and more.
And now Miley, who was also a child star like Britney, is speaking out on the movement.
Ever since Miley yelled “Free Britney” at her concert, fans have been behind Miley’s
support for Brit.
Some people even thought that her Ashley O Black Mirror episode could have possibly been
loosely based on Britney’s situation given many of the parallels.
But Miley clarified how she feels about the Free Britney movement in her new interview
with iHeartRadio.
She explained that while they are both celebrities, she doesn’t know Britney much better than
the average person and sometimes wonders if she should be speaking out about it at all.
Miley said quote, “From a public’s point of view, it would be really hard to kind of
relate, and because I don’t personally know Britney that well, I feel like I’m just
another public speculator.
And I always kind of check myself too.
Is this my place?
Am I just sitting from the outside, thinking that I know the details I don’t know, just
kind of like I complain how the public does to me?”
Miley continued on explaining why she yelled Free Britney at her show saying quote, “It’s
a treat others the way you wanted to be treated kind of thing.
I definitely don’t know her personally enough to know any of the details.
I scream a lot of things at my show.
I also think Britney, like anyone else, should have the freedom to live the life that’s
most authentic to her.”
So at the end of the day, it seems like Miley just wants what’s best for Britney, like
the rest of us.
Hopefully Brit is getting the help she needs because at the end of the day, as much as
we all want to help, it’s a private legal matter.
But Miley didn’t just talk about Free Britney in her recent interviews, she also talked
about her new song Midnight Sky and of course, her love life.
On her visit to the Call Her Daddy podcast last week, Miley explained what she needs
out of a new relationship now that she and Cody Simpson have split up after 10 months
together.
And surprisingly, Miley said that she needs to date someone ‘boring.’
She said quote, “I usually end up complaining they're boring, but that's what I need.
I need boring.
I definitely, definitely need someone calming, I need an anchor, I need a weight.”
Miley also shared some other attributes that are important to her in a potential future
partner.
She said quote, “One of the things that’s important to me in a relationship, besides
acts of service, is I like people taking care of themselves.
I think the way someone treats themselves is a reflection of the way that they’ll
treat you.
I’m, like, super into clean eating; I'm into people taking care of themselves.”
Miley also discussed her sobriety and how she will make sure she’s not looking in
the wrong places when it comes to finding a future partner.
She said quote, “I do know, you don’t — as someone that’s living a sober lifestyle,
don’t go to the club looking for your next partner, you know?
So put yourself in places where you’ll be successful so you don’t get stuck on, ‘I’m
just always wasting my time with all these people.’
You can really control the kind of people who are going to flow in and out of your life,
and you can create a filtration system.”
And Miley revealed earlier this summer that she had been sober for 6 months.
She spoke to Variety about the challenges she faced when she first started living a
sober lifestyle.
Miley said quote, “It's really hard because, especially being young, there's that stigma
of 'You're no fun.’
It's like, 'Honey, you can call me a lot of things, but I know that I'm fun.'
The thing that I love about it is waking up 100 percent, 100 percent of the time.
I don't want to wake up feeling groggy.
I want to wake up feeling ready.”
And we’re just glad that Miley is living her best, healthiest life and we’re sure
when she’s ready for it, she will find her match.
She’s totally killing it either way though!
