Miley Cyrus Suggests People Not Ruin Other Girls’ Self-Esteem by Calling Her Fat

Over the weekend, Miley tweeted, "By calling girls like me fat this is what you're doing to other people." She coupled this with a photo of an extremely emaciated woman, adding, "i love MYSELF & if you could say the same you wouldn't be sitting on your computer trying to hurt others." She followed up by tweeting a photo of Marilyn Monroe that read, "Proof that you can be adored by thousands of men even when your thighs touch." Demi Lovato, who has undergone treatment for an eating disorder replied "AMEN!" to Miley's tweets, to which Miley replied, "AMEN! I will destroy any one that ever calls you the F word. You have the SEXIIIESTTTT curvyyyy body! I LOVE IT! #werkthosecurves" To which we say #realtak #ugogirlfriend #deartabloidstopcallingteenagegirlsfat! Etc.
