London, Feb 10: Singer and actress Miley Cyrus has admitted that smoking a bong was a ''bad decision'' because it has disappointed her fans.

The pop star''s comments are published just days after she was voted the celebrity with the worst influence on teens in a survey of youngsters for the second year in a row, reports the Daily Mail.

A video of the 18-year-old smoking a bong allegedly filled with the herb salvia was posted on the Internet in December.

Speaking about the incident Cyrus tells U. S. Marie Claire: "I''m not perfect... I made a mistake... I''m disappointed in myself for disappointing my fans..."

When reminded that her actions were no different to thousands of American 18-year-olds who smoke bongs, the Disney star says: ''But they''re not Miley Cyrus. They''re not role models.

"So for me it was a bad decision, because of my fans and because of what I stand for," she added. (ANI)
