Miley Cyrus Swears Live On Air During Billboard Music Awards: “Oops, Sorry!”

Wash your mouth out, Miley! Miley Cyrus managed to cause yet another stir during the Sunday, May 18, Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas, by dropping the “S” word, live on national TV.

The singer surprised with a somewhat tame performance of The Beatles’ mellow classic “Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds,” which she performed alongside The Flaming Lips rocker Wayne Coyne on a live-stream from the UK where she is currently touring.
