Miley's Dad on Lap Dance Video: 'Just Fun'

Billy Ray Cyrus is blowing off the controversy over his  then 16-year-old daughter Miley Cyrus grinding on a 44-year-old man -- saying, "It's what people her age do."


We spoke to Billy moments ago about the video that TMZ first posted yesterday -- Miley dirty dancing with Adam Shankman during the wrap party for her movie "The Last Song."

In our poll, an overwhelming majority said the dance was inappropriate ... and 40 percent of readers blamed Miley's parents -- who were not there when the dancing deed was done.


Papa Billy says Miley was just "having fun."

well, you can see where she is getting it, it may be fun but not with an old guy 3 times or age and I am sure that 14 yrs old girls do not strike their asses into some old men penis for fun.

The guy is gay and I can't believe am defending Miley Cryus but its not like no one has seen people dance like that before. She probably did it b/c she felt safe and got carry away by the music. She's still a brat but sometimes dancing is just dancing.

He's competing against Dina Lohan for title of worst parent of the year (by the way, where is Miley's mom in all this?)

It's what 16yr old girls do to 16yr old BOYS, not 44 yr old MEN.

I don't know about anyone else, but when I was 16 that was not "what people her age do" At 16 I was busy with guys somewhere close to my own age, and not old enough to be MY FATHER. This is truly a sad thing when even her own parents don't see something completely wrong.

It may be fun, but what do you say to little kids that are only 9 or 10 years olds??? what if the little kids will be doing it just because Miley does it?
Well, gotta think about little kids who idolizes Miley out there. not just old men.

Just which "people her age" are we talking about? She was a 16 year old CHILD. What a cop out on Cyrus's part. Yanno, sometimes ya just need to be a parent rather than your kid's friend. Any pools going on when she'll get pregnant or are they all for drug rehab? Mr. Cyrus shouldn't be mystified when it happens.

Sorry Billy Boy , having fun or not -
that is obvious sexual grinding of your young daughter, rubbing her ass into his pelvis. Stop defending , and guide your daughter into proper behavior. She is a role model ( or was once
upon a time, anyway).
