Miley Cyrus has opened up about her sexuality and denied reports she's that currently in a relationship.
The 22-year-old singer, who Nick Grimshaw wants for the Judges' Houses on The X Factor, revealed that she is pansexual and despite rumours, is not dating Victoria's Secret model Stella Maxwell.
Speaking to Elle UK, the star disclosed: "I'm very open about it - I'm pansexual. But I'm not in a relationship.
"I'm 22, I'm going on dates, but I change my style every two weeks, let alone who I'm with."
Pansexuality is not limited in sexual choice with regard to biological sex, gender, or gender identity.
Cyrus, who graces the magazine's cover braless in a white tuxedo, also spoke about overcoming the anxiety and insecurities she felt towards her appearance.
"I've had really bad anxiety and depression in my life and a lot of that stemmed from the way I look," she confessed to the publication. "Now I really try not to give a f**k. If you're funny enough and cool enough and confident, that's what will make you feel beautiful."
On not conforming to gender stereotypes, she continued: "I don't relate to what people have made men and women into. I know I'm more extreme and badass than most guys, but that doesn't make me a boy.
"And the other night I wore a pink dress because I felt cute. I can bake a cupcake and then go play hockey."
Cyrus is preparing to host the MTV Video Music Awards Los Angeles on Sunday night (August 30) and on her status as a world famous popstar she added: "I was kind of embarrassed that I got paid money to shake my ass in a teddy bear costume.
"I should not be worth the amount I am while people live on the streets."
