Billy Ray Cyrus must be one of those cool Dads. You know the kind of Dad that buys their kids alcohol, let’s them smoke weed in the house, and apparently let’s their teenage daughter do lap dances for men twice their age.

TMZ spoke with Billy Ray Cyrus about the video of his daughter Miley Cyrus performing a lap dance for 44 year old producer Adam Shankman. His response? “It’s what people her age do,” and it was “just fun.”

So is he a cool Dad or just really screwed up in the head?

TMZ has obtained footage of Miley Cyrus last summer giving an older gentleman a lap dance.

During the wrap party for “The Last Song,” Cyrus can be seen being very graphic in the video while dancing with Adam Shankman.

Shankman is an openly gay man produced the movie, along with also producing “Hairspray.”

This video is yet another embarrassing moment for the teen star. However it’s only embarrassing as she probably did not want this public. As far as her moves – let’s just say this is not her first time giving a lap dance.

Katie Holmes’ performance on So You Think You Can Dance has not received much praise, according to E! Online. The actress performed an homage to Judy Garland choreographed by Tyce Diorio Thursday night on the reality show.

“I am f***ing INSULTED, Katie Holmes how dare you!,” Shanna Moakler wrote on Twitter. “I didn’t just grow up on musicals, I lived and breathed them, Oklahoma, Easter Parade, Family Band, don’t touch my legends! You’re not worthy.”

So You Think You Can Dance judge and executive producer Nigel Lythgoe is angry about the negative reactions. He took to his Twitter to retaliate: “Why hate on Katie? She’s had no dance training and did this for publicity for the charity. Everyone lip synchs when they’re dancing. I’m going to ban all the Katie haters. You make me sick. Your attitude stops ‘stars’ doing charity work. Understand why she did it CHILDREN. I’m trying to figure out why Katie is being judged as a dancer. When a star throws out the opening pitch, no one says ‘Ooh, crap pitcher!’”

Holmes did the performance to show her support for the Dizzy Feet Foundation, a charity intended to support, improve and increase access to dance education in the United States. The charity was founded this year by Holmes, Lythgoe, director Adam Shankman and Dancing With the Stars judge Carrie Ann Inaba.
