Miley Cyrus: I love attention

OHMYGOSSIP — Miley Cyrus admits she’s an attention-seeker. The singer says she likes the limelight to be pointing firmly in her direction. “I said I was going to take a year off before I made this record,” she said of her new album.

“But it’s hard to take a break. It’s almost depressing when you’re not working. You’re so used to people calling your name, and that energy, and when you don’t have it anymore … That’s why I never complain about people wanting autographs or pictures. Because if there were a few days where no one asked, I’d probably be like ‘What the f–’s going on? Do people not like me?’

“I hate the paparazzi – but when they’re not sitting there waiting for you, you’re like ‘Who’s bigger news? Who are you trying to get a picture of

“I want to be the cool chick that everyone wants to be friends with. I want the people who watch my shows or watch my videos to be like, ‘She looks like the most fun person to hang out with ever. I want to be that girl’s best friend. I want to party with her’.

“It’s like, if you’re hanging out with Beyonce, it’s almost like you’re hanging out with a goddess. She’s like a real queen. It’s a different realm. Where my thing is kind of the opposite. My shtick is I’m the homey.”

“My parents have never allowed tabloids in the house. When my mom used to have assistants or whatever and they would bring tabloids over, she would be like, ‘Can’t work with us. I don’t want my kids reading that’. So my dad doesn’t really know what they’re saying about me or our family – which is better.

“It’s good that he doesn’t know how to Google and all that sh-t. My dad barely knows how to use the computer. It literally takes him 45 minutes to send a tweet.”
