Miley Cyrus Compares Blackpool To Zombieland

Miley Cyrushas sparked an angry backlash from the residents of Blackpool after criticising their town in an interview.

The singer was chatting to In:Demand when she gave her verdict on the famous Lancashire seaside resort.

She said: "Blackpool is one of the strangest places I've ever been to in my entire life.

"I was performing for the Queen, in Blackpool of all places. I got there and was like, 'This is the weirdest place'.

"There was this amusement fair but no-one was there because it wasn't summertime. It reminded me of Zombieland. There was literally nobody.

"I didn't think if I was ever going to perform for the Queen this is where I'd have to go. I was staying in a creepy motel."

Twitter users reacted angrily to Miley's comments, with one writing: "Great people live here with big hearts - and you've just made the majority of us angry."

And another said: "Apparently #Mileycyrus called Blackpool a Zombieland  saying all the people are weird etc.. like she can hardly talk the sl*g wannabe!"

Miley has admitted that she considered dropping her surname for professional purposes.
