UPDATE: Miley Cyrus reacts to groping incident that happened in Spain

Pop star Miley Cyrus fiercely speaks out addressing harassment that happened to her in Barcelona, Spain.

Last Sunday, a video surfaced on Twitter showing the 26-year-old singer making her way through a mob of fans. In front of her was her husband, 29-year-old actor, Liam Hemsworth.

As Cyrus was making her way towards a waiting vehicle, a man is seen aggressively grabbing her and forcing her into a kiss. The singer narrowly avoided the non-consensual kiss that the man was intending to plant. Security guards quickly stepped in and shoved the man away while Hemsworth reaches for his wife.

Now, the star has posted a Tweet in response to the harassment. Cyrus attached a video of both Inside Edition and The Talk discussing the incident. Along with the video, she wrote the message:

ā€œShe can be wearing what she wants. She can be a virgin. She can be sleeping with 5 different people. She can be with her husband. She can be with her girlfriend. She can be naked. She CANā€™T be grabbed without her consent. #Donā€™tF**kWithMyFreedom.ā€

The pop starā€™s fiery message about consent has become viral on Twitter earning 94,777 retweets and 361,061 likes as of this writing.

A source reportedly told ET that the former Disney actress found the incident unsettling but she is now ā€œdoing fineā€.

Cyrus is now busy promoting her extended play recording, She Is Here.
