Miley Cyrus is killing our children!
High levels of lead have been found in Chinese-made Hannah Montana products such as her tween vinyl backpack and purse lines sold at Wal-Mart, Target and Toys "R" Us, the Center for Environmental Health said yesterday.
The paint on five of 28 products tested by the federal agency, including a Girls Rock backpack and a Secret Star wallet, had lead content of 1,800 parts per million to 8,300 parts per million. The federal standard for lead in paint is 600 ppm.
The plastic poison can impair children's learning ability and development and cause irreversible neurological damage as well as renal disease, cardiovascular effects, and reproductive toxicity.
"We require all licensed producers of products using Disney characters to test their products and to comply with all applicable product safety laws and standards," officials for Walt Disney Co., which owns the Hannah Montana brand, said in a statement Tuesday.
