Is the world ready for an "edgier" Miley Cyrus?

The 17 year-old singer and Hannah Montana star told British morning show GMTV that she is presently at work on "my last pop record." After that, she says, "I kinda want this to be my last record for a little while and ... take a break."

During that breather, she says she wants to explore other musical styles and create "something edgier." Perhaps the singer will catch up on hip-hop: she recently admitted that she's "never heard a Jay-Z song" despite name-checking him in her hit single "Party in the USA."

Miley's biggest scandal? Take a look back

"In a few years, as I grow up, so will my fans," Cyrus reasons. "I'll be able to have more of the sound of music that I'm into."

The star has already grown up in front of the world: when she met Queen Elizabeth on Monday, she turned heads with a low-cut, cleavage-bearing dress; last Thursday, shots of her at a hotel pool in Florida revealed a new tattoo with the message "Just Breathe."

    I feel sorry for Miley, She's never had the guidence of a good upbring with good old fashion self respeact, pride in the woman that she'll grow to be. Take your time growing up girl, you have a long time to learn and a long life to do it in. All my best,

    She is not a wh0re and she does not need rehab. Miley is growing up and thats what teenagers do..grow up and mature. Do any of ya'll know her, seriously? Let her be..she's old enough to make her own decisions now.

    billy ray you might as well get her abed in rehab now because she will be needing it very soon she is growing up way too fast she's been going downhill ever since that vanity fair photo (you know the one)she thinks that she is untouchable and she's going to end up just like britney and lindsey getting strung out then when the money starts to dwindle do to all the drug use she will try to make a come back she's just another little girl who can't handle the fame i hope i'm wrong but have a feeling that i'm not miley if youread this just slow down and do whats right you have your whole life ahead of you i hope it dosen't end too fast because you tried to grow up too fast

    WOW what a wh0re!!!

  • December 12, 2009 - 9:20pm Jill

    If she wants to appeal to an older age group (i.e. teens & young adults), she needs to quit dressing like a h0e. We don't like that & we don't like her. She's a wh0re. The only people who like her are little kids.
