Miley Cyrus Responds To Being Groped By A Fan In Barcelona

This is not okay

Miley Cyrus is no stranger to screaming fans, but an overzealous stranger took things way too far when the She Is Coming singer was leaving her Barcelona hotel room with husband Liam Hemsworth

In a video posted on Twitter, the singer can be seen attempting to leave a hotel in Barcelona to get to a car with Liam in the midst of a huge crowd that had gathered to see them, when one person managed to get way too close and personal with Miley. Liam can be seen trying to walk ahead and clear a path, but a man managed to jump out and grab her hair and body, even attempting to kiss her.

Now, Cyrus has responded to the viral video in a series of Instagram stories. “She can be wearing what she wants,” she wrote. “She can be a virgin. She can be sleeping with five different people. She can be with her husband. She can be with her girlfriend. She can be naked. She CAN’T be grabbed without her consent.”

She also wrote #DontFuckWithMyFreedom, part of the lyrics from her song, “Mother’s Daughter,” in response to comments on the video that shamed her for wanting to be “sexy,” implying that the incident was her fault because of the way she dresses or acts.

Miley was in Spain to perform at the Primavera Sound Festival, where she performed some of her new songs. 

While she hasn’t commented on the incident on any of social media channels yet, but it should go without saying that it’s not okay to do this to anyone, celebrities included.
