Actor, comedian, R&B singer and professional beard-trimmer Jamie Foxx has been a very naughty boy. On his radio show The Foxxhole (gayest name ever BTW), he commented that Disney cash-calf Miley Cyrus should grow up. More specifically, he suggested that she might want to "make a sex tape...do some heroin...start being a lesbian...or catch chlamydia on a bicycle seat." Fans of the squeaky clean Disneytronic android were predictably outraged and started baying for his blood.
But maybe the multi-hyphenate has a point, at least about her growing up. After all, the clueless gum-bearer announced confidently this week that Lewis Caroll's Alice in Wonderland (first published in 1865) was all about ecstasy. Confident in her knowledge of literature, she beseeched unbelievers to "look it up online". Perhaps forgetting that it was originally a book, she described the Disney animated adaptation as "perverted". Maybe her understanding of drug counter-culture would be a little more extensive if she had some first-hand experience of it. Otherwise, she just comes across as a synthespian desperately trying to sound cool. And until she's done something slightly more adult than read the Bible with her boyfriend, perhaps she should lay off using 'perverted' as an adjective.
