17 Miley Cyrus Quotes About Being TOTALLY, Unapologetically Yourself
"This is who I am. You're not going to change it."
If there’s one thing that singer, songwriter Miley Cyrus knows how to do, it’s shock the world. She's appeared mostly-nude more times than we can count ... but ALWAYS on her own terms.
TBT 2013 when she twerked on stage with Robin Thicke to his then hit/controversial song, Blurred Lines, at the VMAs. Her performance wasn’t a hit for everyone though. (Haters gonna hate, right?) Immediately following the blush-inducing routine, she gained quite a few critics.
But it’s safe to say that people were both shocked and also a little confused. The last episode of the Disney show Hannah Montana had aired just 2 years ago. Talk about making some serious life changes.
Gone is the blonde, doe-eyed girl that played the role of the sweet, innocent pop star that many of us had grown up with and hoped to be one day.
The funny thing about it, though, is that nothing really changed. She’s even back with her fiancé Liam Hemsworth.
Miley constantly inspires girls everywhere to do and be whatever makes them happy. She’s not making apologies, because she lives by the idea that life is too short to spend it pretending to be something you’re not.
Her authentic, raw self is why so many people are drawn to her — the proof is in her 30 million Twitter followers (and counting). Scroll through her account and you’ll see that she has two passions in life: her many pets and smoking weed (which she claims is the "best drug on earth"). It's easy to see that censoring herself is just NOT her style.
And now that she's taken the spot of the newest judge on NBC’s The Voice (airing on September 19th), we'll all get to watch and learn a thing or two from her about what life's really like when you live the way you want to.
Until then, take a peek at what she has to say about being yourself, totally and unapologetically:
