Asians Want $4 Billion From Miley Cyrus

Posted Feb 12th 2009 2:00AM by TMZ Staff

A Los Angeles woman has filed a class action suit against Miley Cyrus, claiming she mocked Asians in a recent photo by slanting her eyes. Price tag: $4 billion.

miley cyrus sued

Lucie J. Kim claims to represent more than 1 million Asian Pacific Islanders who live in L.A. County. Kim claims when Cyrus posed for the photo, she "knew or should have known that her image would be publicly disseminated via the media, which Cyrus knew focused on her private life, specifically TMZ."

Kim says in the suit, filed Wednesday in L.A. County Superior Court, that each Asian Pacific Islander is entitled to the minimum damages for a civil rights violation -- $4,000. Add it up -- $4 billion!

Kim says Miley's "just a kid" defense doesn't fly. She says it's like Paris Hilton claiming to be just a kid. Ouch.

Miley's peeps could not immediately be reached for comment.

4. I think Miley's acting like any normal teenager acts. There are billions of other teens in the world who pose like this all the time, it doesn't make sense that she's getting flack for having fun with her friends. It isn't even racial when she has an asian friend in the picture with her, anyway.

9. Okay, this is way too much.... how many kids do this at one point in time or another, I guess they should sue everyone. This kind of stuff is getting WAY out of hand. Maybe the next time a different race pokes fun at my race (white) I should sue. Wait I can't cuz I am white!

Sick and tired of this crap!

10. In that case, the Asian guy in the photo should be sued by the Cyrus family for obviously luring her into a sense of security in which she felt comfortable enough to make a derogatory face.

THAT IS THE MOST ASININE CASE I HAVE EVER HEARD.

This lady should join forces with Octopussy...and go on a quest to get a life.
