Miley Cyrus reaches out to rapper DaBaby amid homophobic remarks controversy

During DaBaby's recent Rolling Loud performance on June 25, the rapper had encouraged the audience to put their cell phone flashlights in the air if they "didn't show up today with HIV/AIDS or any of them deadly sexually transmitted diseases that will make you die in two to three weeks," among further derogatory remarks

Joining a growing chorus of celebrities this week in speaking out against DaBaby's homophobic remarks, singer-songwriter Miley Cyrus invited the rapper to have an open dialogue with her on the subject. In a statement posted on her Instagram handle, Miley spoke out against cancel culture and in the caption wrote, "@DaBaby check your DMS -- would love to talk and see how we can learn from each other and help be part of making a more just and understanding future!"

In her social media statement, Miley wrote, "As a proud and loyal member of the LGBTQIA+ community, much of my life has been dedicated to encouraging love, acceptance, and open-mindedness. The internet can fuel a lot of hate and anger and is the nucleus of cancel culture... but I believe it can also be a place filled with education, conversation, communication and connection." The 'Wrecking Ball' singer, in her statement, further said, "It's easier to cancel someone than to find forgiveness and compassion in ourselves or take the time to change hearts and minds. There's no more room for the division if we want to keep seeing progress! Knowledge is power! I know I still have so much to learn."
