The world may have wagged their tongues over Miley Cyrus' raunchy performance at the Video Music Awards on Sunday, but there are at least two people who didn't mind.

Even though Cyrus twerked on Robin Thicke and even kissed his neck, Thicke's wife Paula Patton was reportedly not upset about it. Sources tell TMZ.com that Patton knew the performance would be somewhat provocative because there were multiple rehearsals before the show, so she wasn't surprised. As an actress, Patton has been party to some risqué scenes herself. In the movie 2 Guns, she appears topless as she straddles co-star Denzel Washington.

VMA Vanguard Award winner Justin Timberlake also weighed in on Cyrus' number, telling Fresh 102.7's Jim Douglas that fans should expect performances like that at the VMAs. "I like Miley," he said. "I like her a lot. I think, you know, she's young. She's letting everyone know that she's growing up. I just think it's the VMAs. It's not like she did it at the Grammys. Let her do her thing. You know?"
