Controversy at Dreamland Pride Festival: Miley Cyrus Faces Backlash for "Biphobic" Comment About JoJo Siwa's Relationship
Miley Cyrus received criticism from fans for making a comment that was considered "biphobic" regarding JoJo Siwa's relationship with Chris Hughes. The incident occurred during a panel discussion at Dreamland Pride Festival in New York, where Cyrus encouraged Siwa to come out of the closet and mentioned finding her to bring her back out. Siwa, who identifies as queer, recently ended her relationship with Kath Ebbs and is now dating Chris Hughes, a former Love Island star. The online backlash was swift, with many expressing shock at Cyrus's remarks, especially considering her own pansexual identity. Some criticized the public shaming of a young woman exploring her sexuality, calling it abhorrent.
