Actress Evan Rachel Wood (Mildred Pierce, True Blood) became the latest celebrity to comment on Miley Cyrus’ dramatic new haircut, but what she says was just a joke may not have gone quite as planned.
“I called it! Miley Cyrus is leaning toward gay,” tweeted the 24-year-old actress, commenting on Cyrus’ platinum blonde, pixie hairstyle. Wood, who is openly bisexual, received backlash for the Tweet, which she has since removed. Wood apologized and attempted to explain the joke on Thursday via Twitter, according to The Huffington Post.
Ok. To be clear. I believe you should be able to joke and have a sense of humor about everything.

And i hate explaining, but just to be clear, i dont judge people on how they look. Nor do i associate a hair style with sexuality.

I myself am bisexual and have always "joked" about miley giving me gay vibes. Not a bad thing! Just an observation.

So i "joked" when she cut her hair that it supported my case. But, i am not so close minded or into stereotypes or labeling. It was a joke

I could care less what gender she was attracted to. But dont hate me for supporting her in whatever She chooses. Its all fine by me.

Cyrus, who has received both criticism and admiration for her new do, tweeted her appreciation for Wood’s apology, and even followed it up with the invitation, “let’s be friends."
