14 DAY TRIAL // If Lindsay Lohan is fair game to David Letterman, why shouldn’t Miley Cyrus be for Seth Rogen. In his introductory speech at the Grammys 2011, the actor poked some fun at the Disney star who, late last year, was caught smoking a bong.
Rogen, who was most recently seen in “The Green Hornet,” took to the stage to introduce the most impressive number of the night, a collaboration between Dr. Dre, Eminem, Rihanna, Skylar Grey and Adam Levine.
However, before he did that, he took a jab at Cyrus who, yes, was in attendance but the cameras did not pan on her as they usually do when a star is made fun of.
“Hi. It’s my first time at the Grammys. I’m having a spectacular time so far. I’ve seen things I’ve never seen before, I’m hearing things I’ve never heard before,” Rogen said.
He then went on to say that this did not even have anything to do with the awards show but was thanks to Miley and how she knew to have fun.
“And I wasn’t even watching the show. I was backstage getting high with Miley Cyrus!” Rogen added.
As noted above, the camera did not seek Miley out to focus on her reaction to the joke. Instead, it panned on Justin Bieber who was sitting next to Usher – the latter was incredibly amused, and The Biebes too smiled.
Seth then went to say that, since the Academy couldn’t find a tougher guy to introduce the next act, it befell him to present the “most dangerously talented rapper” of our time.
What followed next was an epic performance – read about it and see it here.
Back to the bong smoking incident, it’s been just days that Miley broke her silence about the film that leaked online just a couple of months ago.
In an interview with Marie Claire, the singer and actress apologized, saying, “I made a mistake... I’m disappointed in myself for disappointing my fans,” as we also noted at the time.
