Just Being Me...Miley Cyrus

Her Own Words:

The hair she copied off Pink, ‘I’m trying to break out of that long hair, big boobs stereotype that women feel they have to conform to. I mean, we’re not living in the freakin’ 1950s — short hair is OK. Have people really got so little imagination? Every morning I look in the mirror and I feel like a blank canvas and I choose who I want to be. In a normal job you have to live by someone else’s rules, but I’m in a job where my work is play and I don’t have to pretend to be something I’m not.’ More from the interview below.

  • On the VMAs: ‘Everything I’ve ever done was how I felt at that exact moment. You have to have confidence as an entertainer and I believe — I know — that no one can be a better version of me than me. Sure, I could put on a gown and have some beauty pictures taken of me, but where’s the honesty in that?’
  • A facile exploration of Wrecking Ball: ‘In my video for Wrecking Ball I am [unclothed] and vulnerable and crying because it’s a song about how it feels when everything around you has been destroyed. I’m very confident being [unclothed]. I feel that stripping off is a way of expressing purity of emotion.’
  • On being a role model: ‘For me, role models are people who are good people. I stick my tongue out because straight photos are sooo boring. But even if I do stick my tongue out, that doesn’t change the quality of the human being inside. I’d rather be honest and upfront; being a good person isn’t about sitting with your legs crossed. I’m just being who I am, which is the best example I can be.’

‘I want to be memorable. That’s what my fans want too. Everyone’s talking about me, waiting to see what I’m doing next. And, yeah, I like things to be bright and colorful and fun, but then I make Wrecking Ball which is darker and grey. And then I’ll maybe go back to running around being crazy. I want to keep people guessing.’

Born November 23, 1992, Destiny Hope Cyrus, later changed to Miley Ray Cyrus, is an American singer/actress best known for her starring role in Disney's Hannah Montana.

Today Miley is soon to be 21 years old and she is turning it up! Her new album "Bangerz" is out and its not that bad. I keep sinking "Wrecking Ball", just can't get that one out of my head.
Can you hate her for doing her thing? Miley is an artist and she will forever grow and try new things. Keep and eye out, cause whether you like or dislike her...Miley will be seen!
