Disney star Miley Cyrus has not been able to keep her nose clean for long. More racy pictures of the 15-year-old teen icon have been making the rounds online. This time Miley is seen holding up her t-shirt and showing her bra, and also revealing lacy, red underwear.
Reports have stated that Cyrus sent the photos to former boyfriend Nick Jonas, who she was dating at the time.
The 'Hannah Montana' actress' father and co-star, Billy Ray, said his daughter will bounce back from the photo scandals despite the outrage because she is a positive person and is "too upbeat to stay down for long."
"The thing you got to look at in life, whether you're an entertainer or whether you're a farmer... whatever you do in life, there's going to be peaks and valleys. I think one of the things my dad taught me and hopefully I instilled in Miley, is that when you get knocked down, you got to get back up because it's not going to do any good to lie on the ground and cry about it," Billy Ray Cyrus said. I think she has a lot to be proud of. I think the positive far outweighs the negative."But that isn't all the controversy for the teen queen. The Los Angeles-based rock band Lustra has accused Cyrus of plagiarizing and invited her to an onstage showdown.
Lustra claims Cyrus's "Rock Star" is an exact copy of their song "Scotty Doesn't Know," which was on the soundtrack for the 2004 film Europtrip.But the band decided to deal with the situation outside of the courtroom. They invited Cyrus to perform her song at L.A.'s Viper Room on Thursday to let fans decide if the songs are the same.
"Lustra would play their song 'Scotty Doesn't Know,' followed by Ms. Cyrus' 'Rockstar,' and then let their fans decide," the group's spokesman was quoted on Contactmusic.com.
But the band also has another idea for repayment.
"Another way to rectify this is to have Lustra appear on 'Hannah Montana' as themselves," the spokesman added. "Lustra could appear on the show as Hannah's musical influence."
"We could share even more of our songs with Ms. Cyrus, just as long as we get credit for it, which is what we have wanted all along," said Lustra guitarist Nick Cloutman.
