Lindsay Lohan Walks Back Her Shady Call-Out Of Miley Cyrus & Cody Simpson!

It turns out that Lindsay Lohan was just playing around!

At least, that’s what she wants everyone to think as she rushes to walk back her recent social media controversy involving Cody Simpson and Miley Cyrus! And to hear her tell it now, her posted (and deleted) pic calling out the Australian pop singer really wasn’t that big of a deal!

TMZ caught LiLo out and about on Friday night in NYC, and when their paparazzi started grilling her about the recent Masked Singer-related controversy involving Simpson, the former Freaky Friday star opened up a bit about what went down. When the photog asked about whether it was a dig at Simpson — or Cyrus — the actress quickly responded (below):

“No, not [a dig at the couple] at all. You guys know that, though. I’ve always loved Miley Cyrus, and Cody is a great guy. He did a wonderful job. It was just an inside joke.”

OK! That’s one way to play it off and try to cut the news cycle on your controversial social media post.

Now we should note that there is some funny history involving furniture between these two… so it does stand to reason LiLo and Cody could have some humorous inside jokes, for sure! Plus, the fact that Simpson used to date Lohan’s younger sister… who knows how the pair feels about each other now, ya know??

For a few weeks, now, Miley Cyrus and Cody Simpson haven’t been shared to show off quite a bit of PDA… and it’s clear they’re getting a lot of attention for it, including from other celebs like Lindsay Lohan! / (c) Instagram/Miley Cyrus

And in addition to the jokes, Lohan also opened up about how she feels about Miley and Cody as a couple — and her words are very high praise!

When asked what she thought about the two pop stars getting together and being so publicly involved with each other, Lohan offered up this gem (below):

“I think they’re great. And I think, you know what? He and her look happier together than ever, and I think that’s the most important thing. Be happy.”

Taking the high road, at the very least, isn’t she?!

What do U think, though, Perezcious readers — is LiLo really taking the high road here? Was it really all an inside joke about Simpson (and maybe Cyrus)? And if so… why’d she delete everything so quickly right after she put it up???

So many questions…
