24-year-old singer Miley Cyrus has revealed *all* – from rekindling with fiancé Liam Hemsworth, to the reason she always pokes her tongue out in photos.
The latter, her trademark pose, evolved not just as a natural progression from her Hannah Montana days, but as a way of showing who she really was on the red carpet.
“I was so embarrassed to be on the red carpet,” she said in an exclusive interview with Billboard magazine.
“So many of those fucking disgusting photographers would tell me to blow a kiss, and that’s not me! I don’t want to blow you a kiss. I didn’t know what to do with my face, so I stuck my tongue out, and it became a rebellious, punk-rock thing.”
So there you have it – the infamous pose, which was quickly attributed to Miley’s Disney-turned-bad-girl phase – was really much more than that. On the whole red carpet issue, Miley revealed that she was no longer interested in keeping up appearances: “I don’t do red carpets, and I just don’t put myself in positions where I feel uncomfortable anymore,” she said. I don’t have to.”

As for her relationship with Liam, Miley explained: “I needed to change so much. And changing with someone else not changing like that is too hard. Suddenly you’re like, ‘I don’t recognise you anymore.’ We had to refall for each other.”
Miley’s sixth studio album is scheduled for release May 11. The first song, ‘Malibu’, is rumoured to be a love ballad dedicated to fiancé, Liam.
