Miley Cyrus has gotten herself in a lot of
trouble more than she could ever bargain for in Mexico.
The ‘Wrecking Ball’ singer, who performed in Monterrey, Mexico on Tuesday September 16, twerked as her dancers were
seen slapping her butt with Mexican Flags, and this act could get her in
serious trouble.
According to Fusion, the country
has a 35-page law about the proper use of the Mexican flag, and Article 52
states that ”disrespect for the flag and national symbols, will be
punished according to their seriousness and the condition of the person who
commits them.” The site also reports that disrespecting the flag could be
punishable with fines up to “250 minimum wages, or 36 hours in jail.” And if
the desecration occurs for “commercial purposes,” the fine is even greater.
While the Mexican government has yet to
comment on the incident, Mediaite quotes
a member of Mexican lawmaker as saying:
“They are hitting her with the flag, or
cleaning her backside. It’s a lack of respect,” Francisco Trevino Cabello said. ”The interior ministry must
sanction the singer Miley Cyrus for desecrating the flag.”
Fusion also reports that Mexican singer Paulina Rubio was once fined $4,000 for
appearing naked in a magazine with the flag draped over her.
