Cyrus makes use of social media for reasons of public discourse- she posts images that would usually be private (naked) to the world and her fans, conforming to her liberated / extra-ordinary  persona. Cyrus often identifies herself as 'queer' suggesting that everybody should be accepting, she embodies confidence. Twitter is a platform that can authenticate a celebrity- sharing her real life to the world.

IRL, the couple spend V-Day in the great outdoors with their pups Tani and Dora.

May 2017: Miley announces in an interview with that she will release a new single called " Malibu," which is a love song about Liam. She says she wrote it while riding an Uber to the set of The Voice and that she decided to make it about Liam because she wanted to take back the narrative of her relationship, which has been in the spotlight for years. "They're going to talk about me if I come out of a restaurant with Liam. So why not put the power back in my relationship and say, 'This is how I feel'?" She says they broke up in 2013 because she was going through a major life change. "And changing with someone else not changing like that is too hard. Suddenly you're like, 'I don't recognize you anymore.'" She says they had to "refall for each other" when they got back together.

For the cover art for "Malibu," Miley enlists Liam. The result is beautiful. And yes, that's her engagement ring.

The song is as beautiful as their relationship, with Miley singing about how Liam saved her and how they are embarking on something new. It's so sweet it hurts.

Miley performs "Malibu" for the first time on TV at the 2017 Billboard Music Awards and is in tears by the end of the song. (Note: this is a stripped down country version of the song and it's very pretty).

Miley responds by re-posting the Insta but not before questioning Liam's choice of photo. These two 😍.

September 2017: In an interview with The Sun on Sunday (via The Daily Mail), Miley says she has no wedding plans for now. "I don't envision marriage. I'm 24. I hope I get to live a little bit more," she tells the paper. "I have too much living to do [before I get married]." She continued, "Three years ago, if you'd asked me if I'd be here, this happy with this man, I'd have been stunned. I'm just riding this out. In some relationships, you lose yourself by being with someone else. Actually, it made me find myself more. I have no idea what the next three years will bring, but if it's possible to get even happier, I'll take it."

In the same interview, Miley revealed that she and Liam maintained a private friendship during their time apart. "I didn't know [we'd get back together]. I'm so crazy I have no idea. But I had something in my heart, it never felt like it was really over. We kept a great friendship really private. It's good for people to have that space to grow individually. Otherwise when you're with someone from 16 until 24, you grow into the same person."

To celebrate Miley's Younger Now album release on Sept. 29, Liam shares this sweet Instagram post, writing, "Check out this little hotties [sic] new album! She's got a bright future ahead ;) Get it while it's hot!"

The album contains several songs that make reference to Liam, including "Malibu," " Week Without You," and " She's Not Him," which is believed to be about Miley's brief romance with model Stella Maxwell during her time apart from Liam in 2015.

October 2017: In an interview with Howard Stern, Miley sheds more light on why she and Liam broke up in 2013. "I had to [end it]. I don't like when relationships are two halves trying to make a whole... So, I don't think that I have that co-dependency. I think people that break up and get back together, that's awesome. You get time to be yourself. You get time to grow up. I think if you're growing up attached to another person, you never really get solid as your own being."

Miley and Liam make their first joint red carpet appearance for the first time in four years for the Hollywood premiere of Thor: Ragnarok, starring Liam's brother Chris. The couple is drop dead gorgeous.

November 2017: Liam makes a cameo on Saturday Night Live. Can you guess who the musical guest was?

And here's a screenshot of Liam's Price Is Right sketch, courtesy of his Insta:

Over Thanksgiving weekend, Miley sparks pregnancy rumors after sharing a photo of herself wearing an oversized gray shirt. Naturally, the photo, which included the hashtag #VeganTurkeyBaby, sends fans into a frenzy.

Before the end of the day, Miley responds to the pregnancy speculations on Instagram Stories, writing "Not pregnant just eating a shit ton of tofurkey. Rude!!!!"

Ahead of her 25th birthday, Miley shares a photo of her birthday gift from Liam: a rainbow necklace of his nickname for her, Lili.

And before the end of the month, Liam posts this photo of his "Christmas angel" Miley.

January 2018: Miley and Liam jet to Australia ahead of Liam's 28th birthday. Here they are leaving a restaurant on the Gold Coast looking sun-kissed and in love.

On Liam's actual birthday, Miley shares this collage on Instagram:

February 2018: Miley wishes her Valentine, Liam, a happy Valentine's Day on Twitter with an outtake from her shoot with Converse and photographer Ellen von Unwerth. Note that Miley is holding a heart shaped cutout of "Lili," Liam's nickname for her.

March 2018: Miley and Liam make a rare red carpet appearance together at the 90th Academy Awards, first at Elton John's annual AIDS Foundation viewing party and later at the Vanity Fair after party. They look divine.

April 2018: Road trip! Miley posted this video of herself jamming in the car, with Liam behind the wheel. In true annoyingly adorable boyfriend fashion, Liam plays a practical joke while Miley's busy snapping the moment.

May 2018: The couple pay a visit to Las Vegas to see Sir Elton John rock it out at Caesar's Palace.

June 2018: The two are spotted walking in the streets of Los Angeles-Miley with green juice in hand. All seems right in the world.

July 2018: AND THEN IT HAPPENS. For reasons unknown, Miley Cyrus deletes ALL HER PHOTOS on Instagram, including those with Liam as well as her profile photo. Naturally, rumors circulate that the two have split.

Meanwhile, Liam is spotted in New York City, filming for Isn't It Romantic.

Ultimately, the couple squash break-up rumors with yet another road trip prank video à la Liam's Instagram Stories.

August, 2018: Liam posts a rare photo of Miley to his IG, confirming that everything's still peachy-keen in their relationship.

November, 2018: Liam and Miley's home burns down in the Malibu fires. All that remains is a sign that says "LOVE."

Later in the month, Liam wishes Miley a Happy Birthday on Instagram, saying she's "more precious than ever."

December, 2018: Miley goes onto the Howard Stern Show and reveals that Liam single-handedly saved their four horses, two pigs, seven dogs, and three cats from the Malibu fires. And it earned him some hot sex. "He got a lot of action for saving the animals...Yeah, he got a lot of action," she says. "We had to make sure he knew I was very, very grateful."

ALSO December, 2018: Miley and Liam (maybe) are married! The couple spend Christmas Eve-Eve with friends and family, and not only does Miley wear a white dress....

There are some pretty telling Mr. and Mrs. balloons...

And that brings us up to date! Though obviously this timeline will be updated with the next chapter of Miley and Liam's happily ever after.

Vanity Fair 2008- First Controversial shoot

# data[].attributes.body
Aged 15 Cyrus did her first topless shoot which caused controversy within the media. Although 'embarrassed' she said it made her more 'relatable to her fans'- showing her true self rather her Disney character Hannah Montana.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The child star of Disney's Hannah Montana franchise caused a furore when she was pictured apparently topless beneath a satin wrap.

However, in a new interview with Billboard magazine, the 15-year-old said: "I was embarrassed but also it's like, every career thing that I do can't be perfect, and sometimes my decisions are wrong.

"I think that just makes me even more relatable. I don't think people will look at me any differently because they're like, 'You know what, I'm going to do stupid stuff too, and I'm going to make mistakes, and that's fine.'

"It still hurts when I think about it - but, you know what, it doesn't mean that you can't move on."

Indeed, Cyrus is now attempting to take her career in a more mature direction.

She has released a "grown up" new album, Breakout.

And she plans to call it quits on Hannah Montana by the time she turns 18. "It will wrap up eventually. I mean, I won't be Hannah Montana by the time I'm 30. But we've only done two seasons, so we definitely want to work on that hopefully for another two years."

With her squeaky-clean image, Cyrus is held up as a role model to millions of young fans around the world.

She said: "It's something I've been super-blessed with, that I've had the opportunity to spread the light. That doesn't mean that I'm not going to make mistakes and do things that everyone's going to be happy with, because there's no such thing as perfection."

When the Vanity Fair pictures were made public, Cyrus issued a contrite statement apologising to her fans.

"I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be 'artistic' and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed. I never intended for any of this to happen and I apologize to my fans who I care so deeply about," she said at the time.

Disney claimed the young singer and actress had been "deliberately manipulated" but Leibovitz defended the portraits, calling them "very beautiful" and claiming they had been misinterpreted.

This interview with Marie Claire highlights the issues that Cyrus struggled with growing up on TV. She was told to play someone who is a 'better version of herself' - wearing a wig, make up and having photoshopped images from the age of 13 left her confused on her own identity. Her changing star image could be due to her finding her own true self and who she is, she has previously been told who to be.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Miley Cyrus is Marie Claire's September cover girl, and she doesn't mince words in her candid interview with writer Allison Glock. Here, nine no-holds-barred moments from our September issue, on newsstands August 18.

1. Growing up on 'Hannah Montana' gave her unrealistic beauty standards.

"From the time I was 11, it was, 'You're a pop star! That means you have to be blonde, and you have to have long hair, and you have to put on some glittery tight thing.' Meanwhile, I'm this fragile little girl playing a 16-year-old in a wig and a ton of makeup. It was like Toddlers & Tiaras. I had fucking flippers."

2. And those beauty standards led to body-image issues.

"I was told for so long what a girl is supposed to be from being on that show. I was made to look like someone that I wasn't, which probably caused some body dysmorphia because I had been made pretty every day for so long, and then when I wasn't on that show, it was like, Who the fuck am I?"

3. While filming 'Hannah Montana,' Miley worked 12-hour days-such long hours that her mom suggested bringing in lights for seasonal affective disorder.

"Every morning, I was getting coffee jammed down my throat to wake me up. I just had to keep going, be tough, be strong. Everything happened to me on that set."

4. She even got her first period while shooting the show...and wearing white pants.

"It was so embarrassing, but I couldn't leave. And I was crying, begging my mom, 'You're going to have to put the tampon in. I have to be on set.'"

5. Around the same time, she began to suffer from anxiety.

"I would have anxiety attacks. I'd get hot flashes, feel like I was about to pass up or throw up. It would happen a lot before shows, and I'd have to cancel. Then the anxiety started coming from anxiety. I would be with my friends, thinking, I should be having so much fun. You get in this hole that seems like you're never going to be able to get out of."

6. She thinks perfection has the power to hurt women.

"When you look at retouched, perfect photos, you feel like shit. They lighten black girls' skin. They smooth out wrinkles. Even when I get stuck on Instagram wondering, Why don't I look like that? It's a total bummer. It's crazy what people have decided we're all supposed to be."

7. She doesn't want to be a traditional beauty-brand spokesperson.

"I'm probably never going to be the face of a traditional beauty company unless they want a weed-smoking, liberal-ass freak. But my dream was never to sell lip gloss. My dream is to save the world."

8. She has a major crush on Joan Jett.

"When introduced Joan Jett into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, I said, 'The reason I'm here tonight is because I want to fuck Joan,' everyone laughed because they thought it was a joke. It wasn't."

9. And Caitlyn Jenner considers her a friend.

"We've talked a lot about how you can never make every single person happy. We always laugh about people saying she transitioned to be famous. Which is crazy. Caitlyn has to tell her story, because if she doesn't, everyone else is going to tell it for her."

Be sure to check out this intimate-yet-fun video from Cyrus' cover shoot-because you can never have too much of this girl in your life:

MAC unveils Miley Cyrus as the latest face of its Viva Glam campaign

The singer, 21, follows in the footsteps of Lady Gaga and Rihanna

The new Miley-inspired lip products will hit the shelves in early 2015

All profits from the product will benefit the brand's own HIV/AIDS fund

Singer Miley Cyrus has been named as the new face of MAC Cosmetics' Viva Glam campaign.

The 21-year-old joins the likes of Rihanna, Lady Gaga and Nicki Minaj who have all previously lent their support to the charitable beauty campaign.

Miley took to Twitter earlier today to confirm the news and revealed that make-up lovers can look forward to the official launch of her Viva Glam lip product duo - a bright pink lipstick and shimmery lip gloss - early in the New Year.

Alongside a picture from her new campaign, the Wrecking Ball singer tweeted: 'Going #VIVAGLAM with @MACcosmetics. Look for my lipstick in early 2015.'

Renowned for her love of bold and bright colours, costumes and make-up, Miley has clearly taken inspiration from her own sense of style in order to create her lip products.

Both of the hot pink products - an 'amplified' formula lipstick, which will be on sale for $16, and the shimmery lip glass, $15 - bear her seal of approval, her signature, which features clearly on the limited edition packaging.

As part of MAC's ongoing Viva Glam charity campaign, all profits from the sale of Miley's products will be donated to the MAC AIDS Fund, a charity started by MAC founders Frank Angelo and Frank Toskan in 1994.

The charity, which celebrated its tenth anniversary earlier this year, is dedicated to 'helping men, women and children living with and affected by HIV/AIDS'.

The brand called upon the services of world-famous drag queen RuPaul to front the first ever campaign and - in addition to Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj and Miley - have since collaborated with a number of famous faces such as Elton John, Ricky Martin and Christina Aguilera.

'The idea of Viva Glam was to celebrate life and the outspoken attitude of the company,' a spokesperson for the brand wrote on its website.

'It was a connective tissue that encompassed the diversity of MAC and its mantra... all ages, all races, all sexes. It was, and continues to be, the signature and the heart and soul of the company.

'Viva Glam spokespeople are provocative, alternative and influential and reflect diverse communities. They are heroes we look up to for their personal triumphs; people who have invented themselves and people who created movements.'

Miley Cyrus has become the latest celebrity to bare it all for fashion designer Marc Jacobs' "Protect the Skin You're In" T-shirt campaign.

20-year-old Cyrus posed nude for the fashion designer's campaign which is aimed at raising awareness and funds for melanoma research.

The pop sensation now joins the ranks of high profile female celebrities like supermodels Naomi Campbell, Kate Upton, and Heidi Klum, actresses Eva Mendes and Hilary Swank, and former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham -- all of whom have posed nude for Marc Jacobs' "Protect the Skin You're In" campaign.

Her close relationship with god mother Dolly Parton stabilises her career as a country artist, her recent music has shifted from the industry of Pop to more stripped back country songs. This genuine relationship shows that she knows what it is involved / needed to be a country artist.

Dolly Parton and her god daughter Miley Cyrus performed a stunning rendition of Parton's hit "Jolene" in a special performance honouring the country star's career.

K Pop sensations BTS were seen enjoying the show, which they are attending as the first ever Korean act to present an award at the Grammys.

This was far from the first time Parton and Cyrus had performed the song together. In 2016, a rendition of the song with Pentonix went viral after it was performed on The Voice, while Parton also invited Cyrus on stage for the song for the 25th anniversary celebrations of Dollywood.

Parton was celebrated for her musical achievements and philanthropic work as MusiCares Person of the Year on Friday night. She is the first country artist to be saluted in the tribute's 29-year history.

Garth Brooks, Brandi Carlile, Miley Cyrus, Shawn Mendes, Kacey Musgraves, Willie Nelson, Katy Perry, Pink, Chris Stapleton and Don Henley were among those honouring the 73-year-old singer-songwriter, two days before the Grammy Awards.

"All of my life I have been known for two things. Well, not them," the well-endowed Parton joked in a bawdy acceptance speech. "I've also been known as a singer and songwriter too. Although I'm not complaining. Ol' Pancho and Lefty's been pretty good to me. Everybody always expects me to do a boob joke and I like to do that right up front."

This year's Grammys ceremony has made a strong start when it comes to celebrating the achievements of women and artists of colour, following a backlash in 2018 when artists such as Jay Z went home empty-handed despite eight nominations, and just one woman was seen accepting an award on stage during the live TV broadcast.

The singer, 26, who is married to actor Liam Hemsworth, 29, claimed the pair are "redefining" relationship norms.

She also believes losing her house in the devastating California wild fires last year has changed her perspective far more than tying the knot.

Miley said the reason that people get married nowadays is "old-fashioned", and thinks the reason she and Liam wed was to show some "kind of New Age".

"We're redefining, to be f***ing frank, what it looks like for someone that's a queer person like myself to be in a hetero relationship," she explained.

The pair met back in 2010 when they were filming for The Last Song and kept their wedding ceremony secret, six years after their engagement.

The Woolsey fire that happened back in November last year destroyed their Malibu home, which led to the marriage of the two stars.

"My whole f***ing life changed", she said.

The fire changed their relationship dramatically as she explained "when you experience what we experienced together with someone, it is like glue.

"You're the only two people in the world who can understand."

When asked if she feels different about being married to Liam, Miley replied "zero percent different. I would say that losing the house changed us much more than getting married changed us."

The fire occurred when Miley was filming Black Mirror in South Africa, and Liam had to evacuate all of their animals from their home, including two pigs, two horses, four cats and seven dogs.

The Malibu home is where she created records by herself, rather than her alter ego Hannah Montana and she worked with producer Matthew Wilder.

Miley, who recently shared unseen pictures of her wedding, told the magazine that the night it happened she started to write out what she was feeling.

"Some of the feelings did not add up with the others. Some of them were super-angry; some of them were relieved in a way, which feels really f***ing weird", she said.

"A big part of my pride and my identity is being a queer person. What I preach is, people fall in love with people, not gender, not looks, not whatever...

"Relationships and partnerships in a new generation, I don't think they have so much to do with sexuality or gender.

"Sex is actually a small part, and gender is a very small, almost irrelevant part of relationships."

The texts speaks of how the Hannah Montana narrative is centred around 'becoming a woman' and 'becoming famous' - which Cyrus was doing in her actual life at the time.

'The Hannah Montana franchise often employs the message that it is important to stay ‘true’ to yourself'' -  P.227 ''

The constant reminder to Miley/Hannah to stay true to herself can be seen to act as a process of authentication. Hannah Montana songs such as 'True Friend' correspond with this idea. The Show had a heightened focus on acting morally.

Wait, what? The internet is freaking out that Miley Cyrus may be pregnant! The singer took to Instagram to post a celebratory photo ahead of her 25th birthday and fans think she's showing off a baby bump! What do you think? ...

Miley Cyrus, 25, may have some explaining to do! Ahead of her 25th birthday [which is today, Nov. 23] and Thanksgiving, the singer took to Instagram to post a pre-celebration snap. And, although she was surrounded by giant balloons and party favors, fans only noticed an apparent "baby bump!" She held her stomach in the telling photo and added fuel to the fire with the hashtag, "Vegan Turkey Baby". Miley looked beautiful in an oversized, grey t-shirt with her blonde hair down. Check out the photo and tell us what you see!

The singer's birthday is already starting off on a romantic note. Her fiancé and rumored [already] husband, Liam Hemsworth, 27, gifted her with a rainbow necklace that spells the name "lili" in cursive letters. Miley took to Instagram to express her excitement about her man's pre-birthday gift. "My mannnnnn's already winnin & it ain't even my bday yet!" she wrote next to a photo of the necklace. "Rainbow LiLi is soooo frigggggen cute!" Miley teased on her Instagram story that this was just present No. 1 from Liam, so we can't wait to see what else he has in store for the birthday girl!

Check out some of the comments from fans who were in awe over the mysterious photo - "Not only does she look pregnant, but the random blue thing on the table could totally be gender reveal," one fan wrote. Another commenter said, "If ur preggo im honestly here for it! imagine how freakin cute that baby would be omg". More comments flooded Miley's photo with pregnancy inquiries, while the rest consisted of sweet birthday messages.

Just this past Tuesday, Miley gave fans more reason to speculate about a potential pregnancy when she rocked an oversized pink dress on The Voice! Miley wore a three-tier, ruffled pink dress that went down to her ankles, and fans had a field day on the internet. Fans were questioning if the singer was hiding a baby bump under her "trash bag" outfit. Memes loaded Twitter about her ensemble and you can see the fan reactions here!

While Miley has yet to address the wild pregnancy speculation, more rumors have been pouring in. Earlier this month, reports claimed that she and Liam secretly married months ago in a romantic Malibu ceremony. The pair sparked wedding speculation days before the reports surfaced, after they were photographed at Tybee Island in Georgia, where they filmed the movie The Last Song together. Liam is currently filming there for his new movie, Kellerman. As you may know, the two met on set of the film in 2010, and sparks flew.

On Nov. 3, Miley and Liam were photographed on a sweet stroll there, while sipping on beverages. But, it was the two pieces of jewelry in the photo that caught everyone's eye - The couple appeared to be wearing matching wedding bands. However, in true Miley and Liam fashion, they've kept quiet about their relationship.

HollywoodLifers, do you think Miley and Liam are secretly married?

A typical narrative of a tabloid newspaper putting two female celebrity co-stars against each other in the media. The papers have been creating issues between Miley and Selena for many years- it is known if any of this has any depth to it or not or more so the create story sales of a 'cat fight'.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The long-standing feud between Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez is the stuff of Disney legend, having kicked off back in the day over a curly-haired Jonas Brother who recently discovered his crotch, but things have stepped up a notch now with some serious Instagram drama.

Earlier this week, everyone suspected that Miley may have been digging up the old dirt between her and ex-pal Selena, after she appeared to take a fairly clear stab at her most recent selfie. And by 'appeared to', we mean 'pretty obviously did'.

Here's the shot that Selena posted. Very booby, very pouty, very wet-haired. You look nice, love.

Then just a couple of days later, Miley posted her own sultry selfie which seemed strangely familiar, along with the fairly provocative caption: "Do yiew tink if I push muah titties up I'll get mo followahhhzzzz?"

Err, probably not as many followers as you'd get from getting completely naked on the regular, wearing shiny tinsel wigs and wearing a stylish penis nose while performing on stage. Although it's always worth a try.

It wasn't long before both armies of fans were up in arms about the whole thing and placing the blame on both the girls, with many accusing Miley of being unnecessarily mean to cause a bit of controversy online.

Throughout their well publicised feud, Selena has kept pretty quiet and dignified towards the endless not-so-subtle digs from Ms Cyrus, but it seems that she might finally have had enough of it all, as she seemingly hit back with a particularly Miley-esque tongue pose.

Despite having initially been close friends while growing up as squeaky clean Disney teens together, things went somewhat pear-shaped when Selena dated Nick Jonas shortly after he split from Miley in 2007.

Since then there's been a fair few awkward moments between the pair, for instance back in June when Miley sang her track 'FU' to a cardboard cutout with Sel's face sellotaped to it, which was nice and subtle.

Miley's also quite a fan of the passive aggressive tweet, and she followed up the Instagram speculation with a brand new one this week which quoted Justin Bieber's reference to Selena in 'Beauty and a Beat'.

KIDS THESE DAYS. Although this is probably the equivalent of removing someone from your Myspace Top Friends, and we all know how that one cut like a knife.

Cyrus's personal / public sphere beliefs have grabbed media attention as a female star. Cyrus often speaks about her journey as a vegan and her campaign for animal rights- she is portraying a ethical self. This information balances the ordinariness of the star.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Veganism is an important lifestyle choice that people make for life - and Miley Cyrus was sure to let everyone know about her commitment to the cause by getting a tattoo inspired by The Vegan Society's symbol on her left underarm.

The singer uploaded a snap of her new tattoo alongside a graphic of our iconic Vegan Trademark on her Instagram yesterday, captioning it as 'Vegan for life', proving how mainstream and widespread veganism has become.

The photo caused an avalanche of positive feedback from Miley's vegan fans as well as a lot of vegan-curious people holding discussions in the comments section.

With Google searches for 'vegan' almost doubling last year compared to 2015 and three and a half times as many vegans in Britain now as a decade ago, celebrity endorsement has massively helped to further the cause for animal liberation.

Abigail Stevens, Trademark Relations Officer at The Vegan Society, said: "We've supported and influenced the growth of the vegan movement since day one, and we always applaud celebrities like Miley who use their platforms to raise the profile of veganism and animal rights.

"We're thrilled that she's so strongly committed to a vegan lifestyle. The sunflower artwork that Miley has chosen is that of our Vegan Trademark and can be seen on vegan products around the world."

Miley and her partner Liam Hemsworth are both vegan and last month called on their Instagram followers to watch What The Health, a powerful Netflix documentary that explores the health impact of meat and dairy products consumption.

Donald Watson, co-founder of The Vegan Society, coined the word 'vegan' in 1944.

The society has been registering products with its Vegan Trademark since 1990. Today, over 24,000 products from 53 different countries carry the logo, which is widely acknowledged to be the most credible vegan label in the market.

Products from household names such as Flora, Alpro, Asda, IKEA, LUSH, Costa Coffee and Caffe Nero are registered with our Vegan Trademark.

We have also recently launched our #YesItsVegan campaign, which highlights our work to improve vegan product labelling around the world.
Why not thank Miley for all she does for the animals? Head over to her Instagram account here.

'I still roll fat joints for my friends': Miley Cyrus says she will not smoke marijuana even if her pals do... and admits she has a 'lot more energy'

She recently admitted to quitting her long love affair with marijuana.

And Miley Cyrus discussed how her life has changed since the decision in a radio interview during her visit to the SiriusXM studios in Los Angeles on Friday.

'It's very weird,' the 24-year-old singer said. 'I've got a lot of energy.'

Scroll down for audio

Which helps the starlet with her obsessive nature: 'I'm a very obsessive person, which I need to work on, but also it helps in my position to be a little obsessive,'

'Because then I can really get things done and make sure it's perfect,' she continued.

Miley admitted to stopping the marijuana habit in an interview in the latest issue of Billboard Magazine.

'This is crazy, but I haven't smoked weed in three weeks,' she said in the April interview, 'which is the longest I've ever (gone without it).'

'I like to surround myself with people that make me want to get better, more evolved, open.'

'And I was noticing, it's not the people that are stoned,' she said of the decision, adding she isn't drinking either, 'I'm completely clean right now!'

Meanwhile, Miley is still on the wagon as she confessed on Friday: 'At that point it was like three weeks, now it's like nine weeks or ten weeks or something.'

When asked if she would ever seek help to stay clean, the former Disney star replied: 'Everyone always hits me up. A lot of people have reached out to me and [ask if I want help].'

'And I'm like, "No, when I want something, I can do it." Anything that I want to do, if I want to stop or start something, I can do anything.'

'I just decided not to anymore and now it's easy for me.'

However, she does not exclude herself from social activities if marijuana is involved.

'I still roll fat joints for my friends,' Cyrus quipped.

Speaking in an interview on LIVE Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest he said: "She'll still be obviously known [professionally] as Miley Cyrus but she took my name which is great.

"That was honestly one of the best things about it. I didn't ask her to take my name but she was like, 'no, of course I'm taking your name'."

The loved-up couple wed in December six years after getting engaged.

Fans were first tipped off they were hitched when photos of the pop star and Hunger Games actor cutting wedding cake and surrounded by family members appeared online.

Their pal Conrad Carr shared video and a photo from the intimate bash on Instagram which revealed 'Mr and Mrs' balloons behind Liam and his groomsmen.

Miley wore a glamorous ivory off-the-shoulder gown and hunky Australian Liam is seen in a suit.

The loved-up pair haven't stopped gushing about each other since they got married.

Last month Miley penned a heart-warming tribute to Liam on his birthday.

The sweet post lists everything she loves about him and received over a million likes and thousands of comments.

The pair first announced their engagement in 2012, but broke up a year later.

They rekindled their romance in 2016, with Miley jetting to Australia to spend New Years with Liam's family, including his brother Chris Hemsworth.
