Looks like Furry has just gone mainstream...

....maybe.
Just found out about Miley Cyrus introducing fursuiters in her Vancouver (and perhaps other? Fill me in) shows...and not the cheap, ugly, poorly-done hollywood interpretation of fursuits...these look like actual suiters from the fandom itself. Take a look:

I've been busy with organizing local meets. Has anyone else who's been more in touch with recent events heard about this?
At least one web website isn't happy about it: http://www.straight.com/music/58801.....ndly-spectacle But frankly I am. We're no strangers to controversy. But despite Miley's controversial image right now, gotta give her credit for breaking down some barriers, especially where it pertains to us.

Interesting to say the least. I guess it's a good and a bad thing.
Introducting more furs to the world, but, maybe giving more people a negetive opinion on us.
It goes both ways I guess.
As for publicity, I hate Doctor Phil, but I'm dying to know what happened with HIS furry disaster show.
All in all, furrys in the news and in the media, in my opinion, weather it's good or bad, get's people talking about it. As I said above, good or bad, it's ALL publicity. Random thought; At almost the end of the video, someone was holding up their Samsung giant phone... it had what looked like panda ears... I'd say there's a good chance she's a fur lol!
I wonder your thoughts on the music video "The Bad Touch" by The Bloodhound Gang, but you don't have anything published that old. But I did see a history of hater articles full of expletives, so I don't think this joker is worth worrying about. Just shiny tabloid writing.
Just from this last page of articles, these jumped out as prime examples of sensationalist "reporting" or what used to be called "commentary".
"Boo hoo, broke bands, quit asking for charity: Stop trying to get me to fund your fucking album with a Kickstarter campaign. Same goes for getting your merch produced, your motel rooms paid for, and your bar tab settled. It makes you and your bandmates come across as a bunch of shameless and entitled pricks......"
"No talent is required to perform electronic dance music: Let’s just cut the shit for a minute and say it: electronic dance music is the stupidest music on the planet. It even has a fittingly dumb name, EDM, which makes me cringe every time I see it. More so than the acronym, though, the reason it sucks is because the amount of talent required to perform it is precisely none......"
Can I retract my statement above? "four sickos in fursuits" OMG LOL!!!
I couldn't read anything past that...
PeopleSickos just LOVE drama!!!
