Miley Cyrus’s sister, Noah, called Candace Owens a “nappy a**” h*” and is now apologizing for it, according to The Daily Wire.
“I am mortified that I used a term without knowing the context and history, but I know now and I am horrified and truly sorry,” Cyrus posted on an Instagram story, TMZ reported. “I will never use it again. Thank you for educating me. I in no way meant to offend anyone. I am so sorry.”
TMZ stated, “Miley’s little sis threw her support behind Styles after his Vogue spread last month — wearing a dress — prompted Owens to verbally attack Harry for not being ‘manly.’ Problem is, Noah’s choice of words were racially charged — her IG story post said Styles wears a dress ‘better than any of u nappy a** heauxz.’”
“If you didn’t know. Owens is Black … something Noah certainly knew, so it’s clear she needs a history lesson about the racist undertones of the word ‘nappy.’ It sounds like someone gave it to her, because she got a ton of backlash on social media … and is now apologizing.”
“Nothing to see here, just [Noah Cyrus] ‘defending’ [Harry Styles] against criticism by [Candace Owens] – by calling Candace a ‘nappy a** h**.’ There truly is no racist like a White Liberal racist.”
“Heaux” is another slang term for the word “h*.”

Owens wrote, “Any one of woke liberals care to explain to me how [Noah Cyrus] calling me a ‘nappy ass hoe’ is not racist? I’m all ears. You guys love cancel culture. [Miley Cyrus] come get your sister!”
“There is no society that can survive without strong men. The East knows this. In the west, the steady feminization of our men at the same time that Marxism is being taught to our children is not a coincidence. It is an outright attack. Bring back manly men.”
“When people try to tell me I don’t have influence, and then [Harry Style] dedicates an entire post to my tweet. I inspire global conversation. #BringBackManlyMen.”
From The Daily Wire:
Noah Cyrus, singer and younger sister to musician and actress Miley Cyrus, apologized on Thursday for seemingly referring to conservative commentator Candace Owens as a “nappy a**” h*.
Notably, Owens’ name was not mentioned in the post.
As noted by The Daily Wire on Wednesday, Owens and musician Harry Styles traded lighthearted slights via social media, which stemmed from Owens’ criticism of the praise Styles received for wearing dresses on the cover of Vogue.
Earlier this month, Styles became the first male to land a Vogue magazine cover, and he did so wearing gowns, skirts, and dresses. The creative’s shoot was praised not just inside the space of fashion, but hyped for “challenging gender norms” and influencing younger generations.
