Miley Cyrus Molly Drug Reference MDMA [VIDEO]; We Can't Stop Singer Admits Word Has Different Meanings; Former Disney Princess All Grown Up?

Miley Cyrus MDMA Molly Drug reference: Has the We Can't Stop star grown up?

Miley Cyrus talked about her song We Can't Stop in an interview, and carefully parses her words to explain her lyric "Dancing with Molly":

"If you're aged 10 [the lyric is] Miley.  If you know what I'm talking about, then you know."

"I don't think people have a hard time understanding that I've grown up."

"You can Google me and you know what I'm up to - you know what the lyric is saying."

Molly is another word for the drug MDMA, or 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine.  It is an "empathogenic" drug that can cause euphoria, a sense of intimacy with others, and diminished anxiety.  While MDMA is an illegal Schedule 1 substance in the US, it is also being studied for its potential use for veterans with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, or PTSD.  MDMA was used in therapeutic practice before it was made illegal.  As an illegal drug, it has been a drug of choice for "rave" culture.

Miley's Video for We Can't Stop has attracted a lot of attention.  Her Twerking was a subject of discussion and even turned up in a Jay Z lyric on Somewhereinamerica: "Feds still lurking, they see I'm still putting work in, 'cause somewhereinamerica, Miley Cyrus is still twerkin', ha!"

Miley also dismissed peoples' concern about the Molly MDMA drug reference in We Can't Stop, saying:

"I just think the world is so lame because you can shoot people in a movie and you can let people like [George] Zimmerman off on trial, but you can't have someone going like this [Cyrus stimulates oral sex gesture].  That is so dumb to me."

"The last thing people need to worry about is my cute little video for 'We Can't Stop,' you know what I mean?"
