BILLY ? PERRI

A post shared by Miley Cyrus (@mileycyrus) on Oct 31, 2019 at 9:31pm PDT

I am about to give Miley Cyrus some begrudging respect… this was a good couples-costume, right? Miley was Perri Lister and Miley’s boyfriend of a few weeks was Billy Idol. Billy and Perri were together for years in the ‘80s. Miley is very much into the ‘80s revival. Miley loves a wig. Cody actually looks a bit like Billy Idol. So… in every superficial level, this works. I respect that it’s an unconventional couple-costume too – I’ve never seen a couple do Billy and Perri, but then again, I barely pay attention so maybe it’s been done before.

My not-so-nice comment about these two is that they’re try-hard and they went way overboard. But, like, what did I expect? Of course Miley probably dropped a lot of money on customized ‘80s leather and of course she made Cody bleach his hair (I think?) and of course they devoted a million Instagram posts to it. Also: looking at photos of OG Perri Lister: Miley wishes. The video of them kissing is gross just FYI.

Miley Cyrus and Cody Simpson still can’t be tamed, we can’t be blamed for posting this so early in the morning. https://t.co/rhzaywgt4v pic.twitter.com/Ofl4WDE1kB
