Back to work: Miley Cyrus is seen arriving on the set of her new movie So Undercover in New Orleans as she emerged for the first time since she was filmed smoking a bongMiley Cyrus surfaced for the first time since she was pictured smoking a 'bong' today.
The teen star walked nonchalantly onto the set of her new movie So Undercover, which she is in New Orleans to film.
Her reappearance comes days after the emergence of the tape, which captured the 18-year-old giggling uncontrollably after taking a hit on the pipe with friends.
Today, Hannah Montana star Miley appeared to be trying to put the controversy behind her as she carried a healthy water bottle and chatted to a friend.
The Disney star plays an FBI agent in the action comedy, going undercover into a sorority house.
She is living on location in Louisiana, taking her away from her home near Los Angeles, California. This is where she was filmed smoking the bong, five days after she turned 18 on November 23.
Sources insist the pipe wasn't filled with marijuana - instead, she is said to have been smoking salvia, a powerful hallucinogenic herb.
It is legally available for sale in California - where the video was shot - and in other states in America.
In the tape, which was posted on celebrity website TMZ, a male friend lights the plastic pipe and she starts to inhale.
He is seen telling her: 'Take all of that in.'
New role: The actress plays an FBI agent who goes undercover into a soriority houseShe pauses briefly before swallowing more of the smoke. The singer then turns to camera and laughs: 'OK, I'm about to lose it now.'
A female friend advises: 'Just lie down.'
Moments later Miley says: '[I'm] having a little bit of a bad trip.'
She then laughs for almost a minute while talking nonsense.
Last month Miley told MTV News that she was planning 'a fun party' for her birthday.
TMZ reports that the clip was shot by a friend - but later stolen.
