Miley Cyrus debuted her pink mohawk on the cover of Love magazine, which hits newsstands March 2014. The 21-year-old entertainer explained recently that she’s not your average pinup girl. “Right now, me doing any kind of cover for anything that’s like, a Seventeen or Teen Vogue or whatever, the way I talk isn’t the way that people that are 17 really understand.” Hmmmm…Not sure anyone who isn’t 17 understands either, Miley. 

In her recent interview with The New York Times, Miley actually compared herself to Madonna. “I went 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?’ 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?”

Again, I am not 17. But I still I don’t get a word you’re trying to convey.

“Last night, I was talking about some Madonna performances, and I said, ‘At some point, everything becomes irrelevant.’ Like, no one even thinks about when she did ‘Like a Virgin’ at the V.M.A.s. That just becomes a standard, where it’s just like, ‘Oh, that’s her thing.’ So, I feel like now that I did the V.M.A.s, that just kind of became a standard for me, and then anytime I do anything else, they’re like, ‘Miley kept it tame tonight.’”
