Miley Cyrus Was a Liar and a Bully, Says Childhood Best Friend

Since more details on what Miley Cyrus must really be like are emerging every day – more or less against her will – it’s time for her former childhood best friend to step forward and set the record straight on how the Disney star was as a kid: a liar and a bully.

Like all other respectable artist, Miley has a book out, called “Miley Cyrus: Miles to Go,” in which she speaks of how she was bullied in middle school, to such an extent that she even feared bodily harm at one point.

Her childhood friend, Nicole Mullen-Holm, is now telling Radar Online that, if anything, Miley was the opposite of a victim of bullying: she was the one who terrorized everyone else in school.

Miley lies in the book about how terrified she was of her peers in school, because she was the one who would always pick on the girls who weren’t with the “in” crowd, Mullen-Holm says for the e-zine.

“Miley is a liar who bullied girls and was a real [expletive] to everyone,” the former friend says. Since Miley left for Hollywood at the end of the 7th grade, the two have not been in contact.

“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,” Nicole goes on to say.

“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,” Nicole recalls.

Miley became a cheerleader and started hanging out with the cool kids, which made it very easy for her to pick on those who weren’t included in her crew.

“Miley became so mean, I remember her shouting at an overweight girl calling her ‘lesbian’ and ‘[expletive].’ Miley was a cheerleader and was with the ‘in’ crowd,” the former friend explains.

As for claims that she was bullied and that she even feared she’d get physically hurt that Miley makes in the book, that couldn’t have happened: if anyone dared touch a hair on head, her father would have probably intervened, says the friend.

“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!” Nicole says.

The same former friend also weighs in on the bong video scandal, saying she’d love to see the old Miley back, because this new one bears too striking a resemblance to Lindsay Lohan – and it’s quite a shame.
