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:
“She 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 CAN’T be grabbed without her consent. #Don’tF**kWithMyFreedom.”
The pop star’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 “doing fine”.
Cyrus is now busy promoting her extended play recording, She Is Here.
