From the article:
“Miley ain’t so wild after all.
After The Post and other outlets reported Monday the singer had submitted a film for the first-ever NYC Porn Film Festival, her representatives have had the video removed from the Bushwick event and its website.
The festival’s organizer lied when he said Cyrus had personally submitted the film — a 3-minute erotic, bondage-heavy short titled “Tongue Tied — and then misled the production company Cadence Films into granting permission to use it, her representatives said Tuesday night. The producers and the singer’s representatives asked organizer Simon Leahy to remove the film from the festival and its online listings, which Leahy did Tuesday night……
Leahy defended the arts content of the festival and said Cyrus’s video — which contains no sex but rather shows the singer in bondage scenarios, including some scenes where her nipples are covered in black tape — would have fit in. The video includes the song “Fitzpleasure” by alternative artist Alt-J. It’s been online since the spring, and was used as the opening video on her Bangerz tour last year.
“It’s like we are an art festival,” he said. “Even though we’re using the word porn, we’re not some cheap LA porn award festival.”

Whatever actually went down, it’s interesting to note where the boundaries get drawn in the pornification of mainstream culture, while simultaneously a porn film festival, sponsored by the free video site PornHub, aspires to the status of art.
