MTV EMAs 2013: Miley Cyrus smokes joint onstage

Twerking twerp Miley Cyrus performed at MTV’s European Music Awards Show on Sunday and aside from grinding on an alien and sticking her tongue, the former Disney star smoked pot on stage.

Miley Cyrus went from twerking to toking at MTV’s European Music Awards.

Moments after accepting the Best Video Award at Sunday’s event for her hit “Wrecking Ball,” the star took a puff of what looked like a joint onstage at the Ziggo Dome, which is located in — Where else? — Amsterdam.

Photographers captured the celebratory reefer toke, but it was scrubbed from MTV’s U.S. broadcast of the show, which aired several hours later.

MTV’s own web site reported Miley was “smoking weed,” but a spokesman for the network said the company had no comment on the on-stage smoke or MTV’s decision to snuff it from its broadcast stateside.Regardless, the stunt, typical Miley, guaranteed major chatter for an event that was already bound to generate plenty of it.

After all, Sunday’s show offered the Euro answer to the VMAs that were held in Brooklyn in August, which catapulted to the first order of fame — or notoriety, in the eyes of some — for her twerk-seen-round-the-world.

For a further connection, Sunday’s event featured a performance by the man Miley twerked on, Robin Thicke.

Also high at the event — in a far different way — was Katy Perry, who sang while she was suspended far above the stage. Bruno Mars, meanwhile, let his dancer do the acrobatics — on a stripper pole.

Appearing in more grounded guises were Eminem, The Killers, Imagine Dragons, and Kings of Leon.

Miley offered two numbers, the torch song “Wrecking Ball,” and an out-of-this-world show-opening take on “We Can’t Stop.”

She had arrived in a recreation of a space ship, which delivered her to an intergalactic bar filled with aliens. There, she twerked a female space dwarf and stuck out her tongue, in what has become a signature, if highly criticized, move.

Harry Styles, the most popular member of boy band One Direction, picked up the night’s first award, for “Best Look.”

Bruno Mars took the Best Song prize for his “Locked Out of Heaven,” while Katy Perry seized the honor for Best Female Artist.

The top electronic nod went to Avicii, while Eminem received both the Best Hip-Hop honor and a special Global Icon Award.

The prize for Best UK and Ireland act went to One Direction while fellow teen idols Justin Bieber and Austin Mahone took Best Male Artist and Artist on the Rise honors, respectively.

MTV inaugurated the EMA awards in 1994 to reward pop stars who have a global resonance.
