We get loads of press releases here at BUST— sometimes about things that are really relevant to us and our readers, and sometimes, well, sometimes not.
And the press release we received yesterday was just wrong in a thousand million ways. So wrong, in fact, that just describing it wouldn’t be enough. Instead, we wanted to share the entire release with you. Granted, sharing it with you is exactly what the publicist was hoping for, but somehow we don’t think this release will have the intended effect. Read on, if you dare.

Subject: Single Men Say Miley Cyrus is the “Easiest” Costume this Halloween
Hi Laurie,Fresh off the heels of her controversial appearance on MTV’s Video Music Awards, Miley Cyrus is now being touted as the “easiest” costume to get into this Halloween. A new dating study conducted by online dating auction site, WhatsYourPrice.com, asked single men which 2013 costumes they thought would be the most “willing” come Halloween night. 84 percent of single males agree, that girls pretending to be Miley Cyrus this Halloween, will be the easiest girls to talk out of their costumes. Other “willing” costumes include Duck Dynasty, and Amanda Bynes, with the least “willing” ladies donning Disney or Horror related costumes.

But in the process, she is also shedding her morals, and a few layers of clothes.”
