MTV Censors Miley Cyrus’ Alleged Joint-Smoking Acceptance Speech (Video)

She pulled out what appeared to be a joint while thanking fans for the Best Video EMA — though American audiences didn’t see that

Miley Cyrus just can’t help herself at MTV Awards shows, but the network took action to block her most recent antics.

While accepting the trophy for Best Video for her hit “Wrecking Ball” at the network’s European Music Awards Sunday, the pop star thanked her fans — her “Smilers” — along with director Terry Richardson for “putting this all together.”

But then, this happened: “You know, I couldn’t fit this award in my bag, but I did find this,” Cyrus said, as she pulled out what appeared to be a rolled marijuana cigarette. She lit the joint, took a few puffs and bowed off stage.
