LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Miley Cyrus and Joshua Bowman are not dating. Miley Cyrus and Joshua Bowman dating reports hit E! this week, but other news is calling the dating reports false. Cyrus and Bowman appear opposite each other in the upcoming film So Undercover. And like Cyrus’ appearance in the Last Song, the similarities to Liam Hemsworth are there.

The only difference is Cyrus and Bowman are reportedly only co-stars. E! disagrees, reporting “He’s very Liam-ish. It’s like a déjà vu.”

This is the latest round of false Cyrus dating reports since fall in 2010. In October 2010, a news report then claimed that Cyrus and Hemsworth were set to exchange wedding vows. “What’s more the 17-year-old Miley’s proud papa Billy Ray Cyrus is thrilled” claimed one false report at the time.

Miley met Liam on the 2009 film Last Song; they split in August 2010 and then got back together thirty days later only to split once again.

LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Miley Cyrus is facing new leaked photos again tonight; but this time Cyrus’ leaked pictures appear real. New Miley Cyrus pictures leaked Thursday, far different from the fake pictures on December 2. This time, the poses are suggestive, and an alleged female friend heats up one of the pictures with a notable gesture.

Cyrus has battled multiple alleged leaked photo scandals in the last two years of her career. On December 2, a Canadian blogger wrongly identified Miley Cyrus as the subject of leaked photos online. As soon as the pictures hit, fans and news sites were split as to whether they depicted Cyrus or just another random female. The hair was wrong and the tattoo was missing. By afternoon, news confirmed that the pictures were not of Cyrus. The subject was instead a Canadian woman trying to look like Cyrus.

Now today, December 23, a new round of leaked pictures have hit U.S. websites. This time there are reportedly two pictures. The  photos appear to be from two different occasions but in a social setting. One picture is clearly Cyrus revealing an edge of her bra and her tattoo standing up with friends. The other picture is possibly Cyrus on a sofa; in that picture a female friend makes a suggestive pose to Cyrus’ body.

Cyrus has yet to comment about the latest matter. Cyrus also chose to not comment on the Salvia Divinorum Herb scandal earlier this month.

TOLUCA LAKE (LALATE) – Miley’s parents are selling their house in Toluca Lake, California. Miley Cyrus’ parents home had dominated news earlier this year when Billy Ray and Tish claimed Miley would live at home until age 20.

That didn’t last for long.

In April 2010, Miley confirmed she had “got out of that” as she told news, buying a home for herself nearby also in Toluca Lake. Now Miley’s parents have put their massive mansion on the market for sale.

Cyrus had once said “so my door is always open for anyone who wants to come in. It’s a just a loving place.” Miley herself has purchased another property, a home in Walton County, Florida (Fort Walton Beach).

Cyrus had told news earlier this year that Tish Cyrus was designing the singer’s new Toluca Lake home. But news reports today indicate that Tish was already looking for a home for herself in Encino this summer. It remains unclear in the Cyrus divorce case how living arrangements will play out. Miley’s siblings Braison, 16, and Noah, 10, are currently of minor age are hence subject to custody claims.

LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Miley Cyrus’s salvia smoking is sparking sales of the herb. Yet the Miley Cyrus salvia debate over salvia divinorum’s effects continues its second week today. Miley Cyrus salvia divinorum usage is legal in California which, like other jurisdictions, as battled over whether the herb should be regulated.

Salvia divinorum is a hallucinogenic that has an immediate effect. The first five minutes are exceptionally intense during which the person will either experience uncontrollable laughter or panic. Cyrus experienced the laughter. The effects slow in the next ten minutes. Within thirty minutes after use, salvia’s effects have ended.

Johns Hopkins School of Medicine recently determined salvia caused no short term harm but could result in long term damage. But, researchers were concerned over the experiences detailed by their subjects. Those subjects say that they left reality in the first five minutes. Subjects described their experience as “other worlds or dimensions,” “contact with entities,” and “mystical-type” awakenings. The same study found that industry research on salvia is lacking.

Salvia is part of the mint family. It carries names like “diviner’s sage” and “magic mint.”

Anthony Adams, a former State Assemblyman for California, had attempted to ban salvia in 2007. “It’s time for state and federal governments to renew their push toward an outright ban.” Health officials are worried that they lack data on how prevalent salvia usage is currently .

Scientists are also worried about the active ingredient salvinorum A. Salvinorum A was only introduced into the salvia herb in 1990s as a purifying ingredient. Researchers confirm that it’s salvinorum A, specifically, that causes the effects exemplified by Cyrus. Scientists are concerned whether the salvinorum A active ingredient could be inserted into other herbs if not regulated.

LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Miley Cyrus was caught smoking the salvia herb “Salvia Divinorum”. But Miley’s smoking of salvia divinorum was both legal in California, and not harmful short-term, says experts.

While Miley today brought national news attention to  “salvia divinorum”, the salvia herb has been used for decades. It was utilized by religious leaders for healing rituals and was especially prevalent among Indians tribes in Mexico, reports the LA Times.

The smoking of salvia divinorum is legal in California and many other states. But DEA and experts have battled over the herb’s use for some time. While it remains unclear where Cyrus got possession of the salvia divinorum, the herb is readily sold in tobacco and smoke shops around Los Angeles County.

But what exactly is salvia divinorum?

The herb is part of the mint family, the species salvia, and is often known as sage, confirms news Friday.  The chemical at issue in the salvia is salvinorin A. When burned, and smoked, the salvia herb creates an immediate hallucinating result that lasts less than 30 minutes.

“Okay, I’m about to lose it now …. having a little bit of a bad trip….”What the h–ll is that? Is that my boyfriend? Is that me tripping?” says Cyrus on the news video released today. The herb is used the same way as tobacco is utilized. Users smoke leaves that have been dried or chew the plant’s leaves. Cyrus smoked her leaves.

But is it harmful?

Johns Hopkins University studied the herb in 2001 in conjunction with the National Institutes of Health. Their study found no short-term harmful effects. But the report did not look at the long-term effects. The report also called for more studies on the herb.
