A good ol’ chinky time!
by sunnyfong
Miley personally wanted me to post an official apology from her website after the recent slanty eye fiasco.
Honestly, Mi-mi (as I like to call her when we take bubble baths together) is genuinely a sweet girl. She’s just out there, doing her job, singing her songs for the kiddies and creating music that is changing the world. One Ethiopian baby at a time.
Anyway, here is her mea culpa:
“I’ve also been told there are some people upset about some pictures taken of me with friends making goofy faces! Well, I’m sorry if those people looked at those pics and took them wrong and out of context!
In NO way was I making fun of any ethnicity! I was simply making a goofy face. When did that become newsworthy?”
As you can see, she meant no harm and I think the worst of it is over. I thought we were just having a good ol’ fashion chinky time! It’s not racist if an actual Chinese person is present in the room. We really were just being goofy.
Miley, I still love you with all my heart and ur still my BFF. Make sure to come over next Thursday for the new Office episode. Jim is soooooooooooooo cute. lol
Came here from Margaret’s site. You’re so funny! 🙂
Thanks! I try.
I also came from Cho’s site, where this comment in particular calls you to the floor: http://www.margaretcho.com/blog/2009/02/11/oh-miley.html#comment-6413
Funny stuff!
Hey thanks! I gotta stick up for ol’ Miley there!
So technically, she did not apologize. She apologized only if we were offended. From her statement, she admits no wrong-doing. She’s saying that it’s our fault for being offended.
If she made a goofy face in accordance with African-American people’s facial characteristics, then would she say that she apologizes if African Americans were offended. Would she blame African Americans for being too sensitive? Of course not … because she would have everyone from Jesse Jackson to Al Sharpton to Oprah to President Obama (my neighbor) pressuring her and Disney to apologize.
The problem with you sunnyfong is that you welcome such statements from hollywood and middle America because you love your ties to celebrities. You love to appease such ignorance because you’re addicted to second-hand fame. You are like an Asian-American Chicago Cubs fan who takes all the racial abuse during a game from drunken former frat boys.
You are a sell-out. You embarrass me. You embarrass yourself. I don’t know if you have a middle name … but you should add “Uncle Tom” in there.
Honestly, I’m not a big fan of Cho’s. I don’t find her that funny. But I’m very proud of her because she’s right. Asian-American mockery are not taboo. Just go and live in the midwest, the south, even parts of the east. Better yet, just go to a Cubs game where the opposing team has an Asian player.
So Sunny “Uncle Tom” Fong, I hope you can sleep tonight and look into the mirror tomorrow knowing that you sold out all Asians in America and abroad for your addiction to second-hand fame. As for me, I’ll try to have a nice little chat with my neighbor the next time he comes into Kenwood.
You don’t actually think that’s me in that photo, do you? Welcome to last week.
Maybe you should go and look up “sarcasm” in the dictionary, douchebag.
First of all, I hate Miley Cyrus. It’s pretty obvious.
Second, don’t ever call me Asian-American. That is worse than ching chong.
Third, I don’t have a middle-name but you calling me “Uncle Tom” is pretty damn racist itself.
Fourth, I am totally addicted to second-hand fame. I’m a washed up art star. Second-hand Fame would make a great name for an electro trio.
Fifth, I’m a baseball heckler myself so frat boys don’t bother me. I love drunk baseball heckling. I AM that guy that heckles so you can throw that theory out the door.
Sixth, your email address proves that you’re a douche who has no sense of humour or I’m just a great Photoshopper.

Sunny you are fucking FUNNY!!!
Thanks! That’s nice of you to say, brothaman.
ohhh shiznits…is that what my eyes are supposed to look like?
sunny, i think those people (and you) are trying to show me that my eyes aren’t asian enough.
well, let me take the time to thank you, your bff, ect. for showing what’s wrong with me.
btw, you are a great photoshopper. don’t let anyone ever tell you otherwise.
I love that you used “shiznits” and totally pulled it off. What’s funny is that us Chinese people really do have slanty eyes. Much like how Thom Yorke has one crazy eye. And Helen Keller had no eyes. It’s kind of insane how true it is even though we’re all getting up in arms about Ms. Miley. I’m more mad at her for making shit music. Funnily enough, I think she looks like an Asian girl in that photo.
helen keller had no eyes?!? dang, i thought she was just blind. i rather have chinky chong eyes than none at all.
[…] Miley Cyrus, who attended for Bolt , wore a Zuhair Murad couture dress constructed by 32 Chinese seamstresses. Her one stipulation for the designer was that the beading had to be pure crystal. I heard that the atelier was so bright from all the crystals shimmering under the studio lights that all 32 Chinese seamstresses had to dress her with their eyes squinted to avoid all the blinding specks of light. Miley was a good sport though during her final fitting and followed suit by pulling her eyes back with her fingers to block the reflecting lights. She was also heard commenting on how “goofy” all the Chinese workers looked with their squinty eyes. […]
