Miley Cyrus still has people talking about her racy performance with Robin Thicke at the VMAs – including Lady Gaga – but the “Applause” singer is coming to Miley’s defense.
“I mean, I just think everybody needs to lighten up and leave her alone,” she told Andy Cohen on Bravo’s “Watch What Happens Live” on Wednesday night.
“Because it’s pop music. Everybody’s entitled to their own artistic expression, and if you have a problem with it, just change the channel,” Gaga continued.
