Miley Cyrus: “It Still Hurts”

Miley Cyrus says she is still recovering from her topless Vanity Fair photo scandal.

“I was embarrassed… but also it’s like, every career thing that I do can’t be perfect, and sometimes my decisions are wrong,” she tells Billboard in a new interview.

On the plus side, she says the experience made her “even more relatable.

“I don’t think people will look at me any differently because they’re like, ‘You know what, I’m going to do stupid stuff too, and I’m going to make mistakes, and that’s fine,’” she adds.

But she admits, “It still hurts when I think about it.”

She says she is “super blessed” that she is a role model for young girls but “that doesn’t mean that I’m not going to make mistakes and do things that everyone’s going to be happy with … there’s no such thing as perfection.”
