Billy Ray Cyrus called his famous daughter Miley Cyrus a skank? Wow, skank's a really harsh term.
I'm trying to think if I've ever called anyone a skank. I think, 30 years ago, I said that Stacy H was a skank. I didn't say it to her, I used the term as a reference point. (You won't find her on Facebook, she has a different name now.) Is she still a skank now? Hard to say.
Other than that, I don't remember using that specific word.
Just in case though, I googled BEACON OF SPEECH SKANK.
To my surprise, one article came up:
That shouldn't count, I was using the term Media Whore for Shock Value. I don't think Bridgers is a real whore, I just think she promotes herself way too much for her limited talent.
Hmm, racking my brain here. I think I have called a few females Slutty, but to me Skank has the connotation of Slutty + Trashy....
Off point, yet again. I was stunned when I saw this article at Page Six: Billy Ray calls (Miley Cyrus) a ‘Skank’ in Shocking Leaked Audio
This girl?
Now I don't like Miley Cyrus, but I wouldn't use any derogatory terms to describe her.
But you know who I would use derogatory terms for? Douche-bag, one-hit-wonder Billy Ray.
Even if I'm not a fan of Miley's, I know she has talent. Dad? He's a country music hack.
I am so unimpressed with Billy Ray, I posted Weird Al's parody so YouTube wouldn't give Cyrus 1/1,000th of a penny.
Calling a family member, especially your daughter, a skank, is really, really low.
In real life, and in the Blog, I try to limit name-calling. When you use bad words, it usually reflects badly on the person using them instead of the intended target.
In my head, anyone I call bad names will eventually call me bad names.
Do I care if Billy Ray calls me names?
Uh, no.
I would speculate that the Cyrus family, as a whole, are one of the Top 20 to Top 25 most recognizable families in Entertainment.
I shouldn't know their Family Drama, but I do. I shouldn't know Billy Ray's 3rd wife Firehose-
As the Daily Mail reports on how each member of the Cyrus Family is reacting to the controversy, Beacon of Speech pauses to ponder how the leader of the brood even became famous-
