Miley Cyrus to Sexist Clothing Critics: Thank You!

by at .

Miley Cyrus isn't one to dress conservatively, and, for that, the singer isn't about to apologize. Quite the opposite, in fact.

During an interview on Lifetime's The Conversation With Amanda de Cadenet," when asked about her the reception she's received in the past for provocative attire, Miley said:

"I take it as a compliment. Thank you for thinking I'm sexy!"

Cyrus adds that she was shocked by the backlash when she started donning skimpier outfits, highlighted by outrage over a Vanity Fair photo shoot in 2008.

"People are so scared of seeing a woman being like, 'This is who I am and you're not going to change it,'" she said.

That attitude also led to the release of "Can't Be Tamed" and its accompanying, R-rated music video.

"Even just the title of that, for a woman to say she can't be tamed... for a woman in the world with my face saying 'I can't be tamed' when that's really all people wanted to do, I think proves how sexist people still really are," she believes.

That's certainly an interesting take. Miley, meanwhile, has found herself the talk of the gossip world again this week: Do you think she's too thin?

    I hate how people especially these blogs love to tackle Miley about how she dresses and her life. C'mon! She is no longer 14 years old! You all love to say mean things about these stars but as soon as they die you are the first to say your condolences. Makes me sick.

    @Jinko if her 15 minutes were up they would have been up almost 7 years ago, Miley is here to stay because she isn't like your ordinary celeb that does what she is told she has a mind of her own and that's what people love about her don't like it, don't comment.
