Miley on porn, sex, drugs

Miley Cyrus' racy antics have dominated headlines for some time now but the star has pushed the mark even further in her latest interview where she shares her thoughts on porn, sexuality and drugs.

The 21-year-old appears almost unrecognisable on the cover of W Magazine's latest issue, as she poses naked in bed with longer hair, platinum bleached eyebrows and a carefully positioned pillow covering her private parts.

Cyrus speaks candidly to Woody Allen's son Ronan Farrow in the accompanying interview, where she talks about her love for marijuana and claims men watch "too much porn" these days.

She also admits she isn't ready to move on with another squeeze following her September split with fiance Liam Hemsworth because men "try too hard" to please her.

"That's why I'm, like, not trying to jump into a relationship . . . I love my music so much, and I love what I'm doing so much that that has become my other half - rather than another person," Cyrus says.

After gushing about how she has enough money not to worry about how well her music does, the controversial singer, who has raised eyebrows with her new-found raunchy dress sense, says her advice to other young girls is to focus on developing a strong sense of their personal style.

"I like that I'm associated with sexuality and the kind of punk-rock s… where we just don't care," Cyrus adds.
