Miley Cyrus Caught Taking Bong Hits of Salvia: 'Is It Me Tripping?'

It's been a year peppered with scandal for
Miley Cyrus. She did a bit of
underage drinking and, of course, there's been a near constant uproar over her provocative choices in
stage attire. Now comes a fresh scandal, and this one involves a big old bong.
A video obtained by
TMZ shows the 'Hannah Montana' star taking hits from a bong that was reportedly filled with a natural herb called salvia, which when smoked has psychedelic qualities. Possession of salvia is currently legal in California. The video was reportedly taken five days after Miley turned 18.

Billy Ray Cyrus Responds to the Scandal
According to the report, the video was shot by one of Miley's friends and it is very possible that someone stole or copied the video from that person's camera.
The video begins with Cyrus taking a hit from the large bong as the song 'Comedown' by '90s rock band Bush plays in the background. After a few moments, she comes up for air and immediately begins to feel the effects of the drug. Soon, she's seeing things that aren't there, including her ex-boyfriend Liam Hemsworth.

"Oh, I'm not gonna lose it now ... I'm going," she says. "Having a little bit of a bad trip! Is that a f**king Liam lookalike or what the hell is that? Is that my boyfriend? Is that my boyfriend? Oh my God, he looks so much like Liam!"
Did Miley's Reputation Take a Hit? Reactions From a Chilly Times Square:
She then points to her head and asks a friend, "Is it me tripping? Is it me tripping?"
It's then that Cyrus begins to laugh uncontrollably, before asking the camerawoman (who is egging the star to keep talking), "Oh my God, are you being as weird as I think you are right now?"
The video closes with a stream of incoherent babbling and grunting from Cyrus and her friend telling her that she is "going to s**t a brick when you see this."
Cyrus has so far been silent on the controversy, but her father, country star Billy Ray Cyrus, has responded with an emotional message to his fans. "Sorry guys. I had no idea. Just saw this stuff for the first time myself. I'm so sad. There is much beyond my control right now," he wrote on Twitter.
Salvia is known to provide a brief-but-extreme hallucinatory experience when smoked. According to a news report from Current TV, "Its [salvia's] long-term effects are not well understood, but the immediate effects can be dramatic ... for five minutes, the highly-concentrated form of this drug can render people totally incapacitated."

"It is by far and away the most potent naturally-occurring hallucinogen," Dr. Brian Roth, head of a national drug screening program at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, told Current. "This drug targets this one receptor and when it hits that receptor it turns it on and then causes this profound alteration in how people view reality."
Miley had celebrated her eighteenth birthday a few days before the actual date (Nov. 23) at a private party where she was
reportedly spotted with Nickelodeon star Avan Jogia.
In October, after 17 years of marriage, Miley's parents, Billy Ray and Tish Cyrus,
filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences. Rumor was that singer Bret Michaels had an affair with Tish, but the rocker told
PopEater he
did not have an affair with Tish and he's not the reason Billy Ray and Tish are getting divorced.

Soundtrack to a Scandal Yes, that's Bush's 15-year old hit 'Comedown' blasting in the background of this soon-to-be-infamous video. 'Comedown' was the third single from their breakthrough 1995 album 'Sixteen Stone' and the first track to hit big in America on the rock charts. The lyrics fit the atmosphere caught on tape: "I don't want to come back down from this cloud."

I agree. I do not have any respect for Miley anymore. Why is it that a little fame turns innocent teens to shame ? I have a 16 year old grandson and I don't want him thinking it is OK to do those things just because famous people do them. So sad for Miley.
Eb - It's okay to play cards on Friday, just not race cards. People of all races are sick of hearing others whining about this nonsense.
lol give me a break man, parents are suppose to be role models, it is called BAD PARENTING if those parents are forcing their kids to look up to someone else. these people in entertainment are just in it to entertain people not put food on their children's tables, put clothes on their back, and put a roof over their head...FYI she is still young and experimenting life
Someone should tell this retarded little slag that she's playing russian roulette with her single brain cell. Once she fries it, it will be gone.

THE LAST MILEY CYRUS' VIDEO IS SAD, WE DON'T KNOW IF WAS HER OPTION TO SMOKE THAT THING OR SOMEONE OF HER "FRIENDS" OFFERED HER THAT, BUT THE REALITY IS THAT IF MILEY TRIED THE THING BECAUSE SHE ASKED THAT MEANS THAT SHE IS JUST ANOTHER STUPID TEENAGER TRYING TO DESTROY HERSELF BUT IF SOMEONE ELSE GAVE HER THE THING THEY ARE "NOT" HER FRIEND, THEY ARE HER ENEMY AND THEN THEY WANT DESTROY MILEY.
I don't care what the substance was in the bong, legal or otherwise, she is behaving like a skank. How very sad that someone with such a promising future just four years ago should begin to crash and burn so early into her career.
I bet every parent that ever bought into the Hannah Montana franchise's brand by buying products with her image on them would like to burn the memory of this soon to be train wreck out of their little girls' minds. What a shame.

A Hollywood has been fatfaced hillbilly.

Please dont insult us hillbillies, Miley can only pretend to be as good of a person as a hillbilly, and she's not a good actress at all.
No sh*t, she looks TERRIBLE lately. It's like Amanda Bynes, her body is still OK but her face is getting fatter by the second. How does that happen?
fat-faced hillbilly? are you in the video as well?
Miley, Miley,Miley. already 18 and still messing up. hopefully she gets her wild oats out of the way soon. but young people still follow and do what she does. hopefully they are smarted than that.
Reply
Hopefully they are SMARTER than somebody who uses the the non-word "smarted".
im not sure what the big deal is.. she's of age, its legal, and im sure ALL of us have partied once or twice before.. I do have a young daughter who loves Miley, but, as ive always said before,
just becuz, someone else is doing it doesnt make it right.. gosh, ppl, talk to your kids about these issues.. this is a very good teaching moment..

leagle? hmm were holland. just like that swimmer.shes done.party on wayne .party on garth. besides it was always rumor . now the myths busted. bad jk there
I got to say, I'm amused by this uproar over this nonsense. You know, I really pity this girl, however. Oh not for her so-called "downward spiral" because, hell it's just experimentation, right or wrong it's what most normal kids do at her age, it's what one tends to do as a youth: explore and experience the world through one's senses and appetites. No. I pity her because she's surrounded by people she considers friends yet the parasites think nothing of filming her doing controversial things then selling it to reporters so judgmental halfwits can rip her on being, god help us, a teenager! "Oh noes! miley kizzed a boi! She teh ruiNEd!!" "miley drank a bEER!!God is gonnacryz now11" my god people, get a life. Are you so infatuated with this child? Your lives that empty? Before I get hit with "you came here too!", let me point out that I came here specifically to read the hypocritical mess that'd be spouted. I'd bet 99% of you degrading and demonizing her has done pot, drank beer and/or smoked cigarettes underaged or used some other drug illicitly at some point in your lives and if you haven't? Well, I pity you as well. That's the point of being young: to let loose, have fun and explore, testing your boundaries.
Seriously, this shows how sad her situation is when someone like myself who hates her music and show (I find it brain numbingly bad) has to step up to defend this child for being a kid. Yes she was put up for years by Disney as a role model to children but she quite obviously wants out of said role. Look at her current work. If you don't like her music, her tv show, her in general, fine. Don't like your kids seeing her then be a parent and don't let the brats watch the tripe either... but stop bashing her because of your jealousy over her wealth at such a young age or because seeing her partying reminds you of your own wasted youth. I know this rant will fall on deaf ears (maybe it should be phrased "blind eyes") and I'll be voted down by the so-called moral and righteous crowd but I never cared about popularity contests anyhow. I feel better for it. Can those who a belittling a teenage girl for being a kid and making mistakes say the same? If you can.. my how sad that is the see.
It's a good thing that you've talked to your daughter about drugs, etc, (all parents should) but should you find out one day that she TOO has tried this and harmed herself while under it's influnence, maybe THEN, you'll understand what the "big deal" is!!!
I'm always amazed at parents like you. You think just because you've talked to your kid about drugs, that they'll never do them. I sure hope for your daughters sake, you didn't tell her what you just told us. Wisen up lady before it's to late!!!!
This herb may be legal...But even marijuana doesn't make you act like she is...She doesn't even know what she is saying and doing...If this herb is legal then what is the big deal with marijuana!!!
that's not salvia she's smoking, it's pot and she's not hallucinating at all.. TMZ chose to say "salvia" cause that's legal but she's not tripping. just sayin'
