Miley Cyrus Smoking Weed PHOTO Viral Controversy: Starlet Tweets, 'I Don't Have Instagram, Why is Everybody Trippin!' Blunt Pic Fake?
Just days after gossip guru Perez Hilton dug up a photo of pop star Miley Cyrus (allegedly) posing with her adorable pet pup Bean in front of a heaping mound of marijuana, another controversial weed pic went viral on the web, posted by Instagramer mileyxxcyrus. In the image, Cyrus (or a Miley Cyrus look-alike?) is shown puffing on a rather large blunt, her face consumed in a cloud of hazy pot smoke. Fans immediately responded and the "weed smoking" pic soon went viral on Twitter and beyond. But according to 20-year-old Cyrus, she doesn't even have an Instagram account, so "why is everyone trippin!?" Is mileyxxcyrus simply an imposter?
Check out the controversial weed photo posted by mileyxxcyrus on Tuesday, Feb. 19:
"High as fvck #"
And while many Instagram fans agree that the actual account is fake, several others believe that the marijuana image itself is real:
jenny_mue: "You are NOT the Real miley cyrus!!! So STOP spreading rumors! This is Not okay Little Girl."
jasminehallworth: "I don't exactly like this but it's your life and you get to choose what you want : /."
modestfaerie: "That is her tattoo on her finger so even if this is a fake account they could've gotten ahold of this picture somehow and posted it."
princessthin: "Guys this is a hoax account Miley doesn't have an Instagram, this is not her in the image above."
3_little_angels: "She took a pic of herself doing drugs and then tries to tell everyone it's a fake. Don't insult our intelligence, Miley. If you're so proud of yourself that you take a pic doing it, at least own up to it. I used to think you were a good role model for my kids. Not so much anymore."
Cyrus recently hit up Twitter to calm any confusion about the bogus Instagram account:
@MileyCyrus: "Why is everybody trippin. My timeline is blowing up. Everything's all good in my life just in a creative space right now... I don't have an Instagram."
Apparently, mileyxxcyrus is just a diehard fan who has a little too much time on their hands. But if you check out the account, all of the pics are authentic images of the former "Hannah Montana" starlet. So even if the account is fake, do Mstarz readers think that the smoking weed image could actually be real? Hmm...

Are Cyrus' former "hard partying" ways finally catching up to her? And if so, is it really even such a big deal?
