Miley Cyrus managed to make Monica Lewinsky blush and hide her face while discussing a graphic sex term during Tuesday’s episode of her Wondery podcast, Reclaiming.
‘I was coming from Disney so, in my way too, it was never a strategic of “I’m going to shed the skin,” but it was only so dramatic and so shocking for people… what I did wasn’t shocking, it was who I was that was shocking,’ the 32-year-old Hannah Montana star explained of her transition into adult pop star.
‘Like if you imagine you know a couple years ago, like WAP, you know what it’s about.’
‘Wait I don’t know what it is,’ the 51-year-old cyberbullying activist confessed.
Miley (born Destiny) appeared shocked: ‘Are we telling Monica Lewinsky what WAP is about? Do I tell her? Do I tell her?’
At that point, Monica buried her head in her hands and said ‘I’m a loser.’
