Miley Cyrus 'We Can't Stop' VMAs Twerking [VIDEO]: Actress Dressed as Bear for Video Music Awards Performance Regrets Decision

A little person performer recently opened up about being one of the background bear dancers during Miley Cyrus' infamous 2013 MTV Video Music Awards performance. The dancer, Hollis Jane, explained on her personal blog that she felt more like a prop or an object than a performer that night and regrets her decision to be a part of the number.

Here is an excerpt from Jane's blog post, entitled "On Being a Little Person":

"However, I have been presented with many other opportunities. I was in Miley Cyrus' 2013 VMA performance as one of the background bears. I had never done anything in a costume with a mask like that before. I mean, I dressed up as a Pink Power Ranger when I was in Kindergarten and I had a mask on but, I digress...I had never been in a performance where I was purely meant to be gawked or laughed at. I will never forget that performance because it is what forced me to draw my personal line in the sand. After our first dress rehearsal in the costumes with the crew, publicists, performers etc watching us, I walked out of the Barclay Center shaking and crying. Thankfully, my best friends, Kelly and Kerri, happened to be NYC to visit me. They were waiting for me and I walked up to them and broke down. I love being the center of attention, but that was something different. I was being stared and laughed at for all of the wrong reasons. I was being looked at as a prop...as something less than human."
