Miley Cyrus: Why Chris Hemsworth Still Hasn't Watched Her MTV VMA Performance

Miley Cyrus could be Chris Hemsworth's sister-in-law some day, but that doesn't mean the Thor star is in any rush to watch her controversial MTV VMAs performance.
"I haven't seen it," Hemsworth told an E! news insider earlier today while promoting his new Ron Howard-directed drama Rush at the Toronto Film Festival.
He really hasn't seen Cyrus' twerk-filled act with the now infamous foam finger and the too-close-for-comfort Robin Thicke gyrations?
"I've been in Kuala Lumpur two weeks ago, then Jakarta, then Hong Kong [and] Toronto now," Hemsworth explained. "The breaks I get, they're with my family. There's not much surfing the 'net at the moment."
Especially when he wants to be with his and wife Elsa Pataky's 16-month-old daughter India Rose.
"She's been walking for a while now but she's getting better and better at it," the proud papa gushed. "She's got kinda that drunken walk thing. She has her hand up in the air because she's used to holding your hand even when it's not there now…She's fantastic. She's great."
Aww.

Hemsworth will soon reunite with Howard to make In the Heart of the Sea, a drama about the shipwreck story that inspired Herman Melville's Moby Dick.
Downtime for the hunky Aussie will come around Christmas. But, then it's back to work when cameras start rolling in February or early March on The Avengerssequel, The Avengers: Age of Ultron.

Robin Thicke and Paula Patton Escape Miley Cyrus VMAs Drama With Beach Vacation

It's time to escape!
Robin Thicke took his wife, Paula Patton, and their son, Julian, on a beach getaway amid the flurry of MTV VMA reactions over his performance with Miley Cyrus.
The music man and his beautiful family were spotted stepping out of the ocean in Miami after a day of playing in the waves.
Robin made sure to keep his shirt on while Paula looked sensational in a brown string bikini. What a bod!
Paula helped the couple's little one play in the ocean and carried him towards the sand towards the end of the day.
It looks like a little rest and relaxation was precisely what the doctor ordered for the media-frenzied singer.
Despite his mother being less than thrilled with his duet of "Blurred Lines" with the former Disney starlet, it appears that his wife was much more comfortable.
Gloria Loring, opened up to OMG! Insider about what she thought of the scantily clad, ultra-suggestive number.
"I don't understand what Miley Cyrus is trying to do," she said. "I just keep thinking of her mother and father watching this. I was not expecting her to be putting her butt that close to my son. The problem is, now I can never unsee it."

Meanwhile, Paula was reportedly not as bothered by the whole ordeal.
According to TMZ, the stunning actress knew from the get-go that things were going to get heated onstage and wasn't surprised at all by Cyrus' crotch-grabbing and groping.
Then again, she did let him prance around with a few naked models in his rather explicit "Blurred Lines" music video.
Either way, there's nothing like some quality family time!

One Direction Chime in on Miley Cyrus ("Interesting") and Taylor Swift ("She Needs to Leave Niall Alone")

Let's just say, the lads of One Direction maintained a sense of humor about everything they witnessed on the MTV Video Music Awards stage this past weekend.
Talking to E! News last night at the NYC premiere of their 3-D documentary One Direction: This Is Us, they were asked what immediately came to mind when they thought of Miley Cyrus' VMAs performance.
"Twerk!" offered Liam Payne. And then they all just started talking at once.

"I wouldn't like to comment on this," Liam reconsidered.
"It was interesting," Harry Styles said dryly. "You're trying to get us to say something, and I thought it was a lovely, played-down performance."
"It was a lovely rendition of that song," added Louis Tomlinson, though it's unclear which was lovelier in his opinion, "We Can't Stop" or "Blurred Lines."
"It was graceful," Liam said. "Different," Zayn Malik got in on it. "Although I did like Robin Thicke's suit, that was a cool suit," Liam chimed in again.
Moving on to Lady Gaga...
"She sells seashells on the seashore!" Louis cracked, referring to the strategically placed shells that covered Gaga's chest for most of the night—even when she took the time backstage to tell 1D not to mind the haters who booed them when their "Best Song Ever" won the moon man for Song of the Summer.

"She was very nice actually, she came and spoke to us for a little while," Liam recalled. "She said, 'Just don't listen to it,' really. At the end of the day, we're just happy we won the award, so we get to take home the moon man, haha!"
When asked about Taylor Swift 's thinly veiled shout-out to the person who inspired "I Knew You Were Trouble" when she accepted Best Female Video, all fingers pointed to... Niall Horan?!
"I don't know, she just started writing songs about me," Niall jested. "She became obsessed with you, didn't she now?" Louis added to the ruse.
Harry, who was seen spending time with Taylor after the show, admitted that they "had words."
"I said, you know, she needs to leave him alone," Harry said, deadpan. "I said, 'Niall is a nice guy.'"

Paula Patton and Robin Thicke's Mother React to Miley Cyrus' MTV VMA Performance

Just about everyone in Hollywood has weighed in on Miley Cyrus' scandalous performance at the 2013 MTV VMAs, but now it's time for Robin Thicke's side to come forward.
His mother, Gloria Loring, opened up toOMG! Insider about what she thought of the scantily clad, ultra-suggestive number. And she's not exactly painting herself a fan of the former Disney starlet.
"I don't understand what Miley Cyrus is trying to do," she said. "I just keep thinking of her mother and father watching this."
It seems that, like many other viewers who tuned in to see the "We Can't Stop" performance, Thicke's mother was startled by all the grinding and apparent lack of boundaries.
Loring added, "I was not expecting her to be putting her butt that close to my son. The problem is, now I can never unsee it."
But despite the review, Thicke's mother did seem concerned for the young star, saying, "I think she's misbegotten in this attempt of hers. And I think it was not beneficial. I didn't get what her point was."
"It was so over the top as to almost be a parody of itself," she said.
And while Loring clearly wasn't a fan of Cyrus' live rendition of her hit song, it appears that Thicke's wife, Paula Patton, wasn't nearly as bothered by the whole thing.

Now that's one supportive wife!
