Miley Cyrus Says She Wears 'Very Modest' Bathing Suits Because Of Memes
Miley Cyrus is opening up about how internet shaming still affects her body image. 'I've had enough memes of me that, you know, there was a couple that were about my body,' the 'Malibu' singer told Monica Lewinsky on an episode of her 'Reclaiming' podcast earlier this week. 'That was in 2013 and people were putting my head on, you know, different, very unattractive things. And I still see that when I put on a bathing suit to this day.' 'I wear very ― you would never think ― very modest bathing suits,' Cyrus shared. 'And we actually just went on a trip. It was a whole girls trip and everyone else had on a string bikini except me. I was in, like, shorts, you know. I wore ― I don't even know if people wear tankinis anymore ― I was wearing a tank top like an old lady.' 'You're bringing them back!' Lewinsky shared. 'I was trying to bring it back,' Cyrus said. 'And my sister goes, 'You know you're you ― so this is cool ― like, I guess this is in now, you're making this cool. But like you know this is what like a grandma wears to the beach.'' 'And it just hit me like, 'Oh, I'm still so insecure about those memes about my body,'' Cyrus explained. Cyrus has shared before that her time as a child star on the hit Disney show 'Hannah Montana,' also contributed to lasting body image issues. 'From the time I was 11, it was, 'You're a pop star! That means you have to be blond, and you have to have long hair, and you have to put on some glittery tight thing,'' the actor told Marie Claire in 2015. 'Meanwhile, I'm this fragile little girl playing a 16-year-old in a wig and a ton of makeup. It was like 'Toddlers & Tiaras.'' 'I was told for so long what a girl is supposed to be from being on that show,' Cyrus shared, adding that she 'was made to look like someone that I wasn't.' 'Which probably caused some body dysmorphia because I had been made pretty every day for so long, and then when I wasn't on that show, it was like, 'Who the fuck am I?''

Alana 'Honey Boo Boo' Thompson reveals reality TV earnings and financial struggles
Alana Thompson, better known as "Honey Boo Boo," recently spoke out about her reality TV earnings and financial difficulties. Despite her long-running presence on shows like Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, Toddlers & Tiaras, and Dancing with the Stars Juniors, Alana revealed in an interview with People that she has never seen the money she earned from her initial TV success. Alana stated, "I have never, ever received the Here Comes Honey Boo Boo money. I don't know what happened to it." She also accused her mother, Mama June Shannon, of taking $35,000 of her earnings from Dancing with the Stars Juniors in 2018. Although June reportedly returned the money, Alana claims she never received an apology. The issue of Alana's earnings has been a major storyline on Mama June: Family Crisis, where the family drama surrounding the money continues to unfold. Alana mentioned she considered suing her mother but hesitated because 'by law, she did what was right,' explaining that 20% of her earnings were placed in a Coogan account—a trust designed to protect minors' earnings. Alana is currently working on a Lifetime film, I Was Honey Boo Boo, which she says has helped her pay for college. Since her sister Pumpkin gained custody in 2022, Pumpkin has set up a Coogan account for her, though Alana has yet to access the funds, preferring to save them for future needs. Fans can watch I Was Honey Boo Boo to learn more about her rise to fame and ongoing journey.
