Sinead O’Connor Threatens To Sue Miley Cyrus, Slams Her For Mocking Mental Illness

Sinead O'Connor has threatens to sue Miley Cyrus for mocking her and mental illness, Radar Online reported Thursday.

O'Connor posted an open letter to her website addressed to Cyrus. The 46-year-old Irish singer warned that Cyrus needed to curb her over sexualized presentation. Otherwise, the Wrecking Ball singer would "end up in rehab as a result of being prostituted" by the music industry.

Cyrus took to Twitter on Wednesday with a response that mocked O'Connor's struggle with mental illness. The twerking sensation also poked fun at Amanda Bynes who has spiraled out of control in recent months. It is alleged that Bynes is suffering from bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.

O’Connor did not take kindly to being mocked. She took to Facebook and blasted Cyrus for her insensitivity.
“You have posted today tweets of mine which are two years old, which were posted by me when I was unwell and seeking help so as to make them look like they are recent. In doing so you mock myself and Amanda Bynes for having suffered with mental health issues and for having sought help,” O’Connor wrote.

O’Connor went on to chide Cyrus for being a danger to women. She then threatened legal recourse.

“I am staggered that any 20 yr old woman of the 21st century could behave in such a dangerous and irresponsible manner as to not only send the signal to young women that its ok to act like prostitutes but also to the signal that those who have suffered or do suffer mental health problems are to be mocked and have their opinions invalidated. Have you no sense of danger at all? or responsibility?” O'Connor wrote.
