'Little House on the Prairie' Melissa Gilbert Thinks Miley Cyrus Wanted to Get Caught - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Melissa Gilbert may have grown up in a time without camera phones and the 24-hour news cycle, but she's in the camp that believes Miley Cyrus knew exactly what she was doing when she allowed a friend to videotape her smoking from a bong recently.

"These days, everyone with a cellphone is a paparazzo," Gilbert told AOL News. "How high do you have to be to let a friend film you? I think she wanted to get caught."

The former star of 'Little House on the Prairie' and spokeswoman for The Partnership at DrugFree.org thinks Cyrus is being too reckless after smoking salvia ... or whatever it was that got her so loopy that night.

"That's bulls***!" Gilbert said. "I think it was marijuana."

The 46-year-old actress, who played Laura Ingalls Wilder on the famed 1970s television show, doesn't think Cyrus is the ultimate problem child, but still believes kids need to look at this incident as a valuable lesson about drug abuse.

"Hopefully, these kids in the public eye like Cyrus and Heath Ledger are cautionary tales," Gilbert said.

I suspect Miley Cyrus has enough power and enough connections in Hollywood to stop these pictures from getting into the media if she really wanted to. So perhaps she did want to get caught. Perhaps it was a cry for help.

I have to agree with Melissa on this one. I don't buy for a minute that she wasn't smoking anything but dope!!!

Of course she wanted to get caught. It's another way in her misguided mind to show that she has "grown-up".
I don't believe it was a cry for help, but more a cry for attention, to once again, show that she is not Hanna Montana and not a "good girl". Now, why she would want to have people think that is beyond me. They can only figure that out in Hollyweird.
