First we learned that Miley Cyrus, reportedly on the advice of her boyfriend Liam Hemsworth, decided that she needed to quit Twitter and delete her official Twitter profile … Then we heard the impassioned plea from her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, begging her (as “a light in the world of darkness”) to reactivate her Twitter account to satisfy her legion of fans (ie. the kiddies who shell out their parents’ hard earned money for her CDs, DVDs, movie & concert tickets, etc.) and return to Twitter. Now, in her final act of defiance, Miss Miley posted a hastily put-together music video for a rap song titled Good-Bye Twitter in order to explain to her fans why she quit Twitter and why she won’t be coming back. Here are a few screencaps from her vid:
OK, so she’s no threat to LL Cool J or Eminem or even T-Pain, but Miley Cyrus knows how to rap a little bit in a corny-cool old-school style and she knows how to milk a moment like nobody’s business. As we reported yesterday, Miley pulled the plug on her Twitter account and now she spills the deets to the beats. A sample:
“Yeah, you write what you’re doing but who really cares/If I’m playing with Noah or just doing my hair/Everything that I type and everything I do/All those lame gossip sites take it and they make it news.”
So what if she’s a Twitter quitter, we’re not bitter. Hey, are those backup dancers, or just her babysitters? Peace-out!
Ugh … this girl … well, I guess she’s just bein’ Miley. I do applaud her tactic … blasting the “lame blogs” by posting an even lamer rap video (with mis-synced vocals, really?) is surely the way to get your point across. In case you still care, you can watch this video in full after the jump — just please don’t blame me for the 1 minute and 46 seconds of your life you’ll never get back …
I swear to sweet baby Jebus … if pappy Billy Ray Cyrus posts a rap video in response to her response then I MIGHT QUIT TWITTER MYSELF!! Please gods, anything but that.

I’m embarrassed.
I watched it… ALL OF IT!
I agree with mccraemalcolm and meg- quitting Twitter is actually an impressive thing to me
i joined twitter like a month ago and haven’t really posted anything..i really don’t get it. isn’t it just redoing what blogs and facebook (and myspace) have already done? it’s overkill for sure. and if miley is so busy, why’d she have the time to do a video about quitting twitter?!
I think I watched the whole thing through morbid curiousity.
Twitter is for self absorbed people who feel the need to update everyone (who cares) about what they’re doing very minute of the day. Therefore this move has surprised me.
I look at Miley et al, and I am glad to be British where we have ladies like Emma Watson showing them how it’s really done :)
What a douchebag.
Why does she insist on embarrassing herself! That poor little girl.

Anyway, shes a hypocrite. You are closing it cause you want a personal life. Well why open it to begin with. Surely you KNEW people would follow you and read about the stuff you do on a day to day basis. She’s such an attention whore. And does she always mention Britney in everything she does these days – again, looking for more attention. Pretty sure BRITNEY snobbed YOU at the Teen Awards and Britney sure as hell did not write “Thanks for coming Miley” to her concert on Twitter.

Oh and could Miley have SOME sort of talent when it comes to producing? Cause that beat was made on Apples GarageBand. She could have done it herself (doubt it) but then again, its the most simple beat with an added electronic chime.
lol. i like the beat. i dont like the rap and the rap voice.
t-swizzle got a better rap. lol
She needs to go away! She’s so annoying; her voice and her face in general make me want to jump off a bridge, I swear. I mean, blah. Not to mention the fact she’s a huge slut muffin with a loose clamburger. GO AWAY!
Doesn’t she knows that Twitter was never the problem? She was!

“All those lame gossip sites take it and they make it news.”
.
clearly she’s referring to perez who try to stir up trouble between her and that demi chick. i cant stand miley in the slightest, but for once i think she’s done a good thing. twitter is laaame.
.
now if she could just quit youtube too…
This is a Quit Twitter video? I never thought of that one. Why didn`t she consider her fans and just say,”Hi everybody every once in a while? I mean even when quitting a message board it is always better to Never make some announcement. All it does is give your competition something to work with as far as putting you down. Maybe, she felt it was a negative drain on her life and energy so she needed to quit. There is a better way to do this. It would work fine for her to just leave her account sitting there and post Less or almost never than to cancel it and make a video. Miley hopefully will mature and find balance. Everything (including Twitter) doesn`t have to be all or none.
what is wrong with you guys she is soooo much better than taylor swift, you people have no taste! I can’t listen to taylor’s screechy voice for more than 5 minutes!
