Miley Cyrus smokes Marijuana on stage at the MTV EMA awards

In a puff of smoke Miley Cyrus made the night all about her - again. She was doing so well after opening the 2013 MTV EMA in screechy fashion with her shamefully brilliant single We Can't Stop.
 Her vocals in Wrecking Ball matched her passion and it was arguably the pick of the night after rapper Eminem was let down by mic problems.

But just one drag on a dodgy looking roll-up ruined everything. Miley was collecting an award for her naked hammer liking video and referencing the trophy revealed her dilemma: "I couldn't fit the award in my bag. "But I could fit this," she boasted, gurning like a novelty Scream mask before pulling out what looked very much like a spliff. If nothing else, it was only slightly impressive she filled her lungs and puffed the fragrant fog without coughing.

For the first time in six months Miley had rightfully earned the right to be praised for her music. The sound might well have been distorted inside the Ziggo but she was flawless when she was stripped back musically without literally stripping off. It was almost as if, for a moment at least, she was a talented singer without the tedious cries for attention. Someone needs to have a word in her ear. Firstly to tell her she doesn't need to be so pointlessly predictable and secondly to remind her she won a gong - not a bong. We all know she prefers Snoop Dogg to Mickey Mouse but after giving a decent impression of a credible artist for just one evening this moment felt like a regrettable shame.
