Video: Miley Cyrus Cusses Out Photographer Who Asks If She's Pregnant

Miley Cyrus has been unwell as of late. The 20-year-old pop star has been spotted coming and going from pharmacies, and told reporters last week that she has laryngitis.

But this clear-cut explanation for her malaise doesn't, of course, mean that anyone should stop speculating about the real reason that she's sick: She's probably pregnant.

Such was the question posed to Cyrus by one intrepid reporter as she exited a Beverly Hills medical building yesterday. The singer spotted hordes of photographers waiting for her before she even came out the door, so she pulled her sweatshirt up over her head and attempted to elude them.

As soon as she emerged, though, a female pap hollered the obvious:

"Miley, are you pregnant?"

But instead of stopping, whipping out a positive pregnancy test and growing a baby bump on the spot, Cyrus unleashed the rage:

"No, I'm fucking sick, you bitch," she said.

The reporter can then be heard feeling shocked:

"Ohh. Love you Miley," she responds, sarcastically.

Here's the video in full:

Miley has been exercising her wild side these days, so cursing out an overbearing reporter isn't exactly out of her wheelhouse.
