There are seven people in the photo and only Miley Cyrus gets sued? $4 Billion?

Lucie J. Kim, my Korean sister, is somewhat delusional I think.

The $4 Billion offending photo (warning this explicit image could be disturbing to Asian-Americans living in L.A. and looking to make some fast cash. If so, contact Lucie Kim to get in on the class-action lawsuit.)

Asians Want $4 Billion From Miley Cyrus

A Los Angeles woman has filed a class action suit against Miley Cyrus, claiming she mocked Asians in a recent photo by slanting her eyes. Price tag: $4 billion.

Lucie J. Kim claims to represent more than 1 million Asian Pacific Islanders who live in L.A. County. Kim claims when Cyrus posed for the photo, she "knew or should have known that her image would be publicly disseminated via the media, which Cyrus knew focused on her private life, specifically TMZ."

Kim says in the suit, filed today in L.A. County Superior Court, that each Asian Pacific Islander is entitled to the minimum damages for a civil rights violation -- $4,000. Add it up -- $4 billion!

Kim says Miley's "just a kid" defense doesn't fly. She says it's like Paris Hilton claiming to be just a kid. Ouch.

Miley's peeps could not immediately be reached for comment.

Isn't that some Asian guy standing right next to Miley in that photo, looking happy as a clam, very much okay with what the people on either side of him is doing?

Certainly the lives of the people who would recieve the 4k checks should Ms. Kim win this case haven't changed one bit specifically due to this photo.

Disgusting.

that Asian guy looks like he's mocking non-slanty-eyed people.

Which they do with their fingers in the opposite direction on their eyes and no one thinks much of it.

The "big nose" foreigner slur is a little bit more direct.
