Perez Hilton Losing Ads Over Miley Cyrus Photo

Posted on June 17, 2010

Celebrity gossip blogger Perez Hilton recently linked to an alleged "upskirt" photograph of 17-year-old Miley Cyrus on his Twitter account. The photograph Perez linked to has since been deleted. The L.A. Times reports that Perez has been losing ads because of the tweet that linked to the upskirt photograph. ABC pulled ads for The View.

Lauren Beckham Falcone at the Boston Herald notes that this is not first time Perez Hilton has been accused of being a pedophile.

Last fall, Demi Moore accused him of being a pedophile after he posted photos of her 15-year-old daughter Tallulah.
"Let me ask all of you, what is it called when someone is telling people to look and focus on a child's 'boobs & ass' while providing photos? It's called child pornography" Moore tweeted.
He also posted nude photos of "High School Musical" star Vanessa Hudgens on his Web site perezhilton.com, shots her lawyers contend were taken when she was underage.

Perez Hilton remains unapologetic. He also claims there was nothing wrong with the photograph he linked to, but if that is the case the why did he warn the "easily offended" not to click on the link. If Perez Hilton was trying somehow to be controversial, it was a stupid move. Child pornography is not a subject to joke about. The issue has already cost him ads.
