Miley Cyrus twerks with Mexican flag

Another day, another Miley Cyrus controversy, But the dial-an-uproar young singer's latest brouhaha has the added allure of coming from south of the border.

During her Tuesday night Bangerz tour concert in Monterrey, Mexico, the ever-demure former Disney TV star engaged in a lively bit of rump-shaking twerking, while wearing a prosthetic bottom.

Her faux behind is not, however, the source of the controversy. Rather, it was her decision to use a Mexican flag -- which was applied to her simulated derriere by one of her male dancers -- as she twerked.

Surprisingly, her antics did not sit well with some Mexican authorities, at least one of whom wants Cyrus, 21, fined and possibly jailed for desecrating the flag. The fact that this twerk-with-the-flag routine occurred on Mexican Independence Day may have added fuel to the ire of some people.
