Miley Cyrus has made a second apology over her racially offensive photograph.
The 'Hannah Montana' star - who last week spoke out about the picture of her slanting her eyes, but was later blasted for being disingenuous - has issued a more serious and heartfelt apology.
Miley writes: "I want to thank all of my fans for their support not only this week, but always! I really wanted to stress how sorry I am if the photo of me with my friends offended anyone. I have learned a valuable lesson from this and know that sometimes my actions can be unintentionally hurtful. I know everything is a part of GOD's ultimate plan, and mistakes happen so that eventually I will become the woman he aspires me to be. Peace and love, Miles."
The picture, which was leaked on the internet, sees the singer slanting her eyes with her fingers.
Her apologies follow claims from an Asian American advocacy group that Miley was "mocking and denigrating individuals of Asian descent".

This crap needs to stop. You should have the right to express yourself any way you want, you used to in the past. But noooooo, you might make somebody mad if you do, and then you have to say you're sorry. People need to grow up. I'm offended by alot of things I see and hear, especially when it comes to rap/hip-hop and their lyrics (I'm a girl, get my drift?) Why aren't all the rappers appologizing to me and all other females? This race card is such a crock!! The double standard needs to stop.

The Press hates successful, young personalities. They hold them in contempt like they hold most people in contempt. The goal is to destroy them publicly and doing it to a teenager is even better. What a sick entity.
