Miley Cyrus has shared a photo of herself smoking up on Instagram.
There was a time when the following image would actually be a big piece of celebrity gossip news.
Now, however? Yawn.
Wake us up when Miley Cyrus is NOT making her affection for marijuana obvious online.
Those who follow the singer on social media are focused on a different photo instead this week, as Los Angeles-based tattoo artist Doctor Woo posted a picture of Miley’s latest tattoo.
The star has an endless number of tattoos, of course, so why is this one pertinent?
Why is it creating headlines?
Because it’s a drawing of a can of vegemite.
And why is that pertinent? Why is that creating headlines?
Because vegemite is wildly popular food item in Australia… and because Liam Hemsworth is Australian!
Cyrus almost never addresses her relationship status on Instagram; or anyplace, for that matter.
She’s open about her pets and her drugs and her admirable stance on LGBT issues.
Yet Miley likes to keep her romantic life private, making this permanent addition to her body quite newsworthy.
It was etched on to her arm amidst rumors that Cyrus is pregnant with Liam’s baby.
There’s also been recent talk that the singer and the actor are making plans to elope.
We can’t verify either of those rumors, but we can confirm that Hemsworth loves vegemite.
In an interview with Australia’s Sunday Style last month, he raved over the snack, saying on record:
“After-school Milo [a chocolate milk drink] and Vegemite on toast. I lived on it.”
Way back in 2010, Hemsworth was also asked about which foods from his native country he misses the most, saying at the time:
“Meat pies and Vegemite. They don’t really have meat pies in the States; they have hot chicken pies, not meat pies. Vegemite, definitely. I had four bits of Vegemite toast this morning.”
So there you have it.
Hemsworth and Cyrus got engaged in June 2012 before breaking up in September 2013.
However, they remained on good terms over the subsequent years and finally rekindled their romance late last year.
Neither side has confirmed the engagement rumors, but various outlets have reported that Cyrus and Hemsworth once again agreed to get married early in 2016.
We hope everything works out for them.
