Miley Cyrus Controversy
TMZ reported sales of the hallucinogenic drug, salvia divinorum, have spiked since the video of Miley Cyrus smoking a bong surfaced Friday. The site called up head shops in L.A., where salvia is legal, and were told that sales had immediately spiked, with some asking for “the stuff Miley was smoking.”
While the drug is legal in California, it is banned in 15 states. The incident has sparked new debate over the issue of banning salvia in California.
Miley’s father, Billy Ray Cyrus, took to Twitter to comment on her bong video. He writes: “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.”
After turning 18 recently Miley is making a leap into adulthood. But, like it or not, she is a celebrity figure and people have been living by her example.
