Miley Cyrus Responds To Allegations Of Abuse Toward Little Person Dancer: Hollis Jane Felt "Truly Ashamed", Was "Shaking And Crying"

Miley Cyrus responded to allegations of abuse toward a dancer who is a little person.

Miley isn't making friends with the little people, apparently.

Miley Cyrus' dancer ranted against her, saying she felt degraded and that the experience left her 'shaking and crying.'

Hollis Jane, who calls herself a "little person", danced with Cyrus at the Video Music Awards in August dressed as a teddy bear.

I had never been in a performance where I was purely meant to be gawked or laughed at," Jane wrote on her personal blog.

""For the first time I felt truly ashamed of being a little person," she wrote.

The experience seems to have deeply scarred her.

"I will never forget that performance because it is what forced me to draw my personal line in the sand.... I love being the center of attention, but that was something different. I was being stared and laughed at for all of the wrong reasons. I was being looked at as a prop...as something less than human."

Jane also noted that she refused invitation to go on tour with Cyrus after the awards show.

Cyrus shared a photo of herself hanging out with other dancers, perhaps in response to Jane's comments.

"As long as my b---ches love me," she captioned the photo.
