Miley Cyrus became a household
name for families when her Disney Channel television show, "Hannah
Montana," premiered in 2006. From there, Cyrus quickly rose to pop star
fame and has been changing her appearance ever since. As she celebrates
her birthday on November 23, we look back at her evolution from child
star to adult provocateur:
(CNN) --
Miley Cyrus has gotten plenty of attention in 2013, but that doesn't mean she's run out of things to say.
In a recent interview with the New York Times,
the year's resident bad girl discussed everything from the issue of
race to whether she pressured teen heartthrob Joe Jonas to smoke weed.
Here are five interesting things we learned from the interview:
1. She's looking forward to the next Miley Cyrus -- whoever that may be.
Cyrus is fully aware that America has a short attention span, even when it comes to celebs who like to stir the pot.
"Even when I hear that --
that someone, two years from now, is going to be the next kind of
provocateur -- like, I can't wait to collab with whoever the hell that
is, you know," she told the Times. "I'm like, whoever that is, I'm going
to ride that wave."
2. It's rock 'n' roll, people!
The singer would like to
remind people that she's a musician and they sometimes are edgy. The now
21-year-old former teen star says she has gone from "people just
thinking I was, like, a baby to people thinking I'm this, like, sex
freak that really just pops molly and does lines all day."
"It's like, 'Has anyone
ever heard of rock 'n' roll?' " Cyrus said. "There's a sex scene in
pretty much every single movie, and they go, 'Well, that's a character.'
Well, that's a character. I don't really dress as a teddy bear and, like, twerk on Robin Thicke, you know?"
3. Other stars don't want to be associated with her.
Of course stars often
hang out with other equally famous people, but Cyrus said she thinks
some celebs are afraid of being associated with her. She doesn't have a
ton of famous friends, she said, but she sometimes gets other celebs to
cut loose -- only to quickly rein it back in for fear of the
repercussions.
"I'll get someone to,
like, flash me, and they'll be, like, 'You have to delete it!' I had to
do that when I was 14 or 15, but even then I didn't care," she said.
"Like, if someone was videoing me ripping a bong, I didn't care, so it's
just funny to me. I'm like: 'Dude, you're 30. Like, why can't someone
see a picture of your (breasts)?' "
4. Call her racist all you want; she knows the truth.
Some people called
Miley's controversial performance at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards
racist. She thought, "How do I win? If I have white dancers, then I'm
racist. If I have black girl dancers, then I'm racist." Not only does
she know she's not a racist, she said, but the criticism has not changed
her thinking about race.
Just like her
80-year-old grandmother never thought to see an African-American
president in her lifetime, Cyrus said, she knows that people's thinking
will continue to evolve.
"I really thought about
it a lot when Nelson Mandela passed away, because I couldn't even
imagine living this life and seeing how much it's changed," she said.
"So, you know, I look forward to when I'm older, my kids being like,
'What do you mean people ever even talked about what color your dancers
were?' "
5. She longs for the day rising star Ariana Grande can be free.
If anyone knows about
the confines of being a star to the masses of teens and tweens, it's
Cyrus. That's why she says she would like to see singer and Nickelodeon
star Ariana Grande be able to be a bit edgier. Grande has had a big
year, with Top 40 hits and tons of exposure, but no way is she walking
on the wild side like Cyrus.
"She's trying," Cyrus
said. "I see her wearing the shorter things. She comes in, and she goes,
'This made me feel like you.' And I'm like, 'That was like my
sixth-grade prom dress.' "
Despite how we might feel about Miley she has quickly become one of the most talked about celebrities of 2013 and I am pretty sure 2014 will be more outrageous for her.
See Now she is making a name for herself and increasing her brand and money guys. That's what it's about you have to standout in order to create the type of money you want to make and no I don't mean twerk on youtube for it either lol. If you want to make money and standout click the word
