BREAKING! Miley Filmed Smoking Bong!

It was only a matter of time before Miley Cyrus had another scandal!

The now 18-year-old actor/singer was videotaped smoking a bong, and the footage has been released. The video shows Miley smoking from the bong, which is allegedly filled with salvia, a legal substance in California, with some friends. One of those "friends" is responsible for leaking the tape.

We have multiple comments on this one...

1. Just because whoever leaked the footage is claiming the substance is salvia, doesn't mean it's true. It is just as plausible to say it's marijuana. Regardless of it being legal or illegal, it's still another strike against her name.
2. Miley, you've been famous for almost five years. Have you not learned your lesson from your multiple scandals in the past? What were you thinking letting someone videotape you taking a hit from a bong?

While Miley has remained mum, Billy Ray Cyrus took to his Twitter to address the scandal, posting:

Sorry guys. I had no idea. Just saw this stuff for the first time myself. Im so sad. There is much beyond my control right now.

Tsk tsk, Miley. You've finally managed to disappoint your father, who has stuck up for you during your many previous media controversies.

Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber Spotted Together

Either Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez are a legitimate couple, or they just don't care about those dating rumors!

The two had breakfast at IHOP together while in Philadelphia hours before they were both due to perform at the Q102 Jingle Ball.

As pictured above, the teen idols were linking arms outside, but sources say they were holding hands in the restaurant!

Kinda cute... But we really don't like Justin in general and we do not support him working his way into the Disney social circle a la Taylor Swift.

Miley Sparks Anti-Salvia Movement

After a video of Miley Cyrus smoking what is allegedly the legal hallucination-inducing drug salvia from a bong, more people are calling for the drug's ban.

Anthony Adams, a former California State Assemblyman, recently stated that Miley was irresponsible for smoking salvia, as it makes "you do incredibly crazy things." He adds, "Miley is a star and young kids are going to emulate her behavior."

Adams tried to get the drug banned in California back in 2007, claiming that it had the same effects as LSD and marijuana. However, the bill did not pass and instead, restrictions were placed on selling the drug to minors. Adults can still legally purchase it.

Looking Good, Emily!

Former "Hannah Montana" star Emily Osment stepped out on the red carpet of the Z100 Jingle Ball at Madison Square Garden in New York on Friday (December 10), and she was looking fabulous!

Ashley and Scott Still Going Strong

It's rare to see Ashley Tisdale with her boyfriend Scott Speer, especially after she relocated to Canada to film "Hellcats".

The couple was spotted stepping out of a dinner date at Katsuya in Hollywood on Thursday (December 9). They had just attended the Miss Golden Globes Party, where Ashley met up with gal pals AJ Michalka and Brittany Snow.

We're really hoping for a new Ashley album in 2011. What do you say, Ash?!

Selena Gomez Denies Dating Rumors

Either those IHOP sources were lying, or Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber are a bit too friendly! Despite the two being spotted in Philadelphia linking arms and allegedly holding hands, Selena has clarified that she and 16-year-old pop sensation Justin Bieber are not dating.

"It was pancakes. Who doesn't like pancakes?" she told MTV News. "We were both performing in the same place so we went and had pancakes together. That's all it is. All innocent."

We're glad to hear it! We don't know if we could handle a Selena/Justin romance!

Miley's Rep Tried to Bury Bong Video!

Miley Cyrus' reps reportedly worked overtime to make sure the controversial salvia video did not get out, and even gave at least two college students new computers in exchange for the video!

Shortly after Thanksgiving, a college student from the San Luis Obispo, California area contacted Miley's rep and offered his copy of the tape in exchange for something (money was reportedly discussed). The rep sent a man in his 40s to the college campus where the student gave him his MacBook Pro that contained the Miley video in exchange for a brand new MacBook Pro.

Sweet deal if you ask us!

A similar exchange reportedly occurred with another student. But not everyone with a copy of the video was willing to give up, and then leaked it!

To think that Miley almost avoided this scandal is kind of funny!

Miley Was a Bully, Claims Former Classmate

Hmm, this is certainly a new take on Miley Cyrus' claim to have been a victim of bullying in school.

Former fried Nicole Mullen-Holme is claiming that Miley herself was a bully in middle school. She explains:

Miley is a liar who bullied girls and was a real b*tch to everyone. I'm so in shock that Destiny, oh, I mean Miley, wrote a book about being the victim of middle school bullying when she was the mean girl of our school.

Even though we were friends, she was still a brat. I knew her from the first grade and when she and I got to middle school, she just did a 180-degree turn in the wrong direction.

We would hang out and talk a lot at school. Typical girl stuff. Miley became so mean, I remember her shouting at an overweight girl calling her 'lesbian' and 'dyke.' Miley was a cheerleader and was with the 'in' crowd. She was never bullied in elementary or middle school. If anyone even touched her it would have been the end of the world. Her dad would own the school!

Miley is a good girl at heart but I've been seeing how she's been partying and acting and she's looking like Lindsay Lohan. don't want her to be the mean girl that she was in middle school and I would hate to see her become the next train wreck. She's very lucky and should show some humility.

Yikes! Those are some serious accusations!

We have expressed our dislike for Miley in the past, but even we can't believe she was ever this mean! But then again, Miley always has a way of surprising us!

Miley Staying Professional on New Film

Miley Cyrus arrived in New Orleans last week to film So Undercover, which costars Kelly Osbourne. According to sources, she began rehearsals the day the scandalous video of her allegedly smoking salvia from a bong was leaked on the internet. Despite this controversy, Miley "kept her focus on the movie."

Good to hear! Although we're still waiting on an official word from Miley or her reps regarding the video!

Zac & Vanessa Split!

"It's nothing dramatic. There's no third party involved," one source said.

Another added, "They were together for so long. It just ran its course."

Sources say that the two will remain friends.

Aw! This is sad! Troy and Gabriella no more! :(

Dr. Drew Responds to Miley Controversy

Celebrity doctor Drew Pinsky has, of course, decided to put in his two cents regarding the controversial video in which Miley Cyrus allegedly smokes salvia from a bong.

Here's what Dr. Drew had to say:

We know that she?s going to be acting out now because her family?s in trouble, so it?s not unusual to see depression manifesting as various kinds of acting out behaviors. Adolescents don?t get depressed the way adults do. They don?t get sad and cry and withdraw. They often act out and become irritable, they act out with drugs and? get in trouble and she seems to be suffering.

It?s a very powerful hallucinogen. It grows along the freeways here in Southern California. They make a powder out of it, they smoke it, they make tea out of it. The smoking causes a very intense hallucinatory high. It lasts just a few minutes and they?re very bizarre many times, too.

If I had a child that was doing that or if I was advising a parent, I would say get professional help immediately. This cat is out of the bag. This is a child who is in trouble and who is suffering and this is her way of trying to manage that. Get professional help.

He brings up some good points, although making them so publicly kind of undermines his authority, don't you think?

Brandon Smith "Skaing" No More

We previously reported that Brandon Smith of "Sonny With a Chance" was rushed to the hospital during rehearsals for "Skating with the Stars" after experiencing stomach pains and breathing difficulties.

Well, it turns out that was a stomach virus and Brandon was able to return to rehearsals. However, he has since pulled himself from the show, stating he is still sick and he does not want to put his partner or anyone else on the show at risk.

So sad, but probably for the best. That show is tanking anyways!

Sure Looks Like a Date!

Although Selena Gomez adamantly denied rumors that she is dating Justin Bieber following multiple reports of the two canoodling at a Philadelphia IHOP, people just aren't buying it.

And this photographic evidence won't help her case!

Talk show host Wendy Williams released this exclusive photo via Twitter and Selena and the Biebs seem to be pretty cozy.

Still want to say your "just friends?"

Vanessa Hudges Doing Good After Break-up

Vanessa Hudgens isn't letting her recent break from Zac Efron keep her down! The actress celebrated her 22nd birthday at Las Vegas's Pure Nightclub (Ashley Tisdale and Brittany Snow were spotted at the party, and Zac did not attend) and took a moment to explain her mindset:

[Zac and I are] good. I worked a lot in 2009. I did two movies back to back, so this year I just hung out, took it easy, did a play which was a lot of fun, did a movie and now the year is coming to an end before I know it. It's going to be a very, very busy year. I have three movies coming out in the next year, so I'm excited to see what the future is going to hold.

That's the spirit, Vanessa! We hope your birthday was great!

Miley's Poor Sales Due to Illegal Downloads?

Miley Cyrus' Can't Be Tamed debuted earlier this year to disappointing numbers, selling only about 107,000 copies in its first week and becoming the star's only album to not peak at #1 on the Billboard 200.

Well could those sales have been due to illegal downloads? Obviously that's not the only reason, but it seems like it was definitely a notable factor.

According to iLeaks, a website that leaks music for free, Can't Be Tamed was their fifth-most illegally downloaded album, while the title track and lead single was the eighth-most illegally downloaded song. The song's accompanying music video was the seventh-most illegally downloaded video. Altogether, Miley was the tenth-most artist whose material was illegally downloaded from the website.

Footage from Demi's Day Out

As previously reported, Demi Lovato was able to leave rehab for a few hours on Christmas day to spend time with her family. Naturally, the paparazzi was there to capture Demi's first public sighting in almost two months.

Demi and her family went to see a movie and then she returned to rehab shortly after. We're glad she was able to see her family! Now we can only hope for a speedy recovery.

Miley's Salvia Bong Isn't For Sale

Supposedly Miley Cyrus has some stoner fans who want to get their hands on the infamous salvia bong Miley was smoking out of in that video. According to reports, the guy who owns the bong refuses to sell it because it has "sentimental value" to him, despite some pressure from his friends to cash in on the opportunity and make a couple grand at least.

Perhaps the bong will end up in a "Disney Stars Gone Wrong" museum in the future. Imagine the fun a museum chronicling the turbulent private lives of Miley, Demi Lovato, Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, Vanessa Hudgens, Adrienne Bailon, Shia LaBeouf, Cody Linely, and more would be!

Zac Moving On Already?

Although he just split from girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens, it seems like Zac Efron may have already found a new romantic interest!

Sources are saying that Zac has gotten "chummy" with his 26-year-old The Lucky One costar Taylor Schilling while filming in New Orleans. A source continues, "They joke around, eat together sometimes, run lines. Nothing out of the ordinary."

The source insists that the actors are "just friends", but we all know how that usually works out!

Meanwhile, Zac has also been getting close with the cast of Twilight, particularly Kellan Lutz, who are also in New Orleans filming the latest installment of the vampire franchise.
