Miley Cyrus vs. Justin Bieber: Who is The Worst?

In this day and age, there are plenty of terrible people who are super famous, including Lena Dunham, Kim Kardashian, Kanye West (love you, Kanye, mean it!), and any Real Housewife of [enter name of an embarrassed city here], to name a few.

But there are two people who are SO AWFUL but SO FAMOUS that they are in a category all by themselves.

These two people have made the biggest contributions to the downfall of modern society due to their petulant, tongue-wagging, butt-crack exposing ways. They have a combined age of 49 and a combined weight of 150 pounds, but their diminutiveness belies their ability to make everything worse.

These people are Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber. Here, The Daily Caller analyzes the careers, love lives, questionable behavior, body art and social media habits of these two young pop stars to determine which one is actually The Worst. (It’s incredibly scientific.)

MUSIC

Cyrus: Post-Hannah Montana, Cyrus’ modern-day career all started in 2009 with “Party in the USA,” the song that you won’t admit that you have in your iTunes library right now. It was a completely harmless, catchy little summer anthem. Now, Miley sings about twerking and doing Molly and doing it. Much more offensive than her suggestive lyrics is her grammatically incorrect album called “Bangerz,” which features a song that has a #hashtag in the title. A HASHTAG IS NOT A REAL THING LET ALONE A TITLE OF A SONG.

The sad thing is that she can actually sing very well in a twangy, Nashville sort of way, but for some reason she doesn’t want anyone to know that.

Bieber: Like Michael Jackson before him, Bieber has a slew of pop hits that are basically catchy and inoffensive. His musical style isn’t great or even that good, but you’re not going to yell at the radio if one of his songs comes on; it’s really not that bad. Can he sing? Probably not. But he’s a fairly good dancer and performer. He’s not reinventing the wheel here, but he also isn’t breaking it into a million pieces. The Biebs ALSO has a song with a #hashtag in its title, so this is clearly a trend.

Who’s music is worse? It’s a tie.

BODY ART

Cyrus: She has a total of 21 tattoos and counting, including the words ROLLING and STONE on the bottom of each of her feet, LOVE in her ear, a cross and several more doodles on her fingers, a dreamcatcher down her torso, DaVinci’s anatomically correct heart drawing on her arm, an anchor on her wrist and a Teddy Roosevelt quote down her forearm because OF COURSE.

Bieber: As of publication, Bieber has 20 tattoos, but he likes to get them every few months and many of them are religious and elaborate. He has an Indian in a headdress on his shoulder, a lion on his arm, an owl on his other arm, a crown on his chest, a portrait of Jesus on his calf, a knight and a portrait of his mother’s eye on his arm — which could be sweet if it wasn’t so weird — and many, many more.

Who’s tattoos are worse? Bieber’s.

QUESTIONABLE BEHAVIOR

Cyrus: If you were to base your opinion of Miley off of tabloid stories and photos alone, you’d probably get the impression that she is acting like an obnoxious, attention-seeking idiot. That’s because she is acting like an obnoxious, attention-seeking idiot. But if you actually read or watch what she has to say in interviews, she is fairly well-spoken and thoughtful. That still doesn’t make up for the fact for what she did at the VMA’s, nor the fact that she is letting her ass hang out at 8 a.m. on “Today” and sticking her tongue out all over the place.

Bieber: From peeing in a bucket at a restaurant, to making your bodyguards carry you up the Great Wall of China and claiming that Anne Frank would have been a Belieber, and indirectly causing a paparazzo’s death, he has proven to be a spoiled little brat.

Who’s questionable behavior is worse? Bieber’s.

LOVE LIFE

Cyrus: Miley was previously engaged to “Hunger Games” hunk Liam Hemsworth. The two got engaged when they were 19 and 22, respectively, so clearly that didn’t work out. He is a pretty big deal and Hollywood seems hell-bent on making him a big movie star. Get it, Miley.

Bieber: He and Selena Gomez have dated on and off, and while she is a pretty Big Deal in the teeny pop world, she probably won’t last long.

Who’s love life is worse? When you’ve already broken off an engagement before you can (legally) drink, you lose. Sorry, Miley.

CELEBRITY ENEMIES 

Cyrus: Sinead O’Connor wrote a long letter to Miley on her blog asking her to tone it down and stop being such an idiot. Miley called her crazy in return, so Sinead wrote her another long letter. Zzzzzzz.

FRANCE-MUSIC-FESTIVAL

Bieber: There is video of Bieber looking at a framed picture of former President Bill Clinton and yelling “Fuck you” directly at his likeness. They talked it out, but we doubt Bill is a Belieber.

Who’s celeb enemy is worse? Miley’s. Getting into a beef with Sinead O’Connor is just lame and kind of sad, while getting into a beef will Slick Willy is hilarious and pretty awesome.

SOCIAL MEDIA HABITS 

Going through their Twitter accounts is far too mind-numbing. Sorry.

Whose tweets are worse?: It’s a tie.

HAIR CUT

It’s a tie. They’re the exact same.

Bottom line: It’s not quite what we were expecting, but this intensive research proves that Justin Bieber is actually The Worst. You’re off the hook, Miley!

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
