Twitter this: Miley Cyrus is over the Internet.

The Last Song star, 17, says the Web is "kind of lame" and is happy with her decision last fall to ditch her Twitter account.

Check out photos of Miley in VERY short shorts!

"I was kind of tired of telling everyone what I'm doing," Cyrus says in an interview with Movieline. "I hate when I read things and celebrities are complaining, like, 'I have no personal life.' I'm like, well, that's because you write everything that you're doing."

Cyrus -- who quit Twitter at the request of beau and Last Song costar Liam Hemsworth, in October -- says that while she was posting dozens of messages a day, she was "sad" about having "no real, normal life." She says she was also annoyed that everyone knew what she was doing.

Look back on more scandalous moments from Miley's life

"I'm like, well, that's my own fault because I'm telling everyone," she says. "Everything I'm saying is not really going with what I'm putting on the Internet."

Although she says she is "a little bit more social" and has "a lot more real friends" now that she's not stuck Twittering, she still can't avoid it entirely.

"I hang out with my friends and they're so busy taking pictures of what they're doing and putting them on Facebook that they're not really enjoying what they're doing," she complains. "You're going to look back and have a million pictures, but you're not going to be in any of them. Because you're not having fun, you're too busy clicking away. So I think, just enjoy the moment you're in, and stop telling people about it. Just enjoy it."

Her advice for teens who are hooked on social networking sites?

"I'm telling kids, 'Don't go on the Internet,'" she says. "It's dangerous, it's not fun, it wastes your life. And you should be outside playing sports or something."

    Miley Cyrus' parents should be beat. Their daughter's grown up way too fast and she is somewhat tawdry. Her little sister's a wreck, and her brother looks like a tatooed prison rat. What is going on here?

  • March 17, 2010 - 11:53pm yep

    Bobble-head! Holy cow! She looks rediculous and her mouth makes me gag. :X Poor ugly little wh ore.

    To "Monica". What I meant is, regular people use the internet to keep in contact with each other. I make plans with my friends through Facebook, and I keep in contact with family who lives far away. It'sh ard for her, yeah, because she's famous. But she doesn't need to diss it just because it doesn't work for her. The internet isn't all bad, you just have to be smart.

    so if she was not dating that guy, she would still continue to tweet away. i wonder if she will go back on tweet or the 'stupid internet' if they call it quits? it's clearly that she's not doing it for herself but clearly to please her bf. it's one thing she does that but another to complain about it.

    She looks like she's about to shrink! The dress does not fit her properly. Neck down looks like a plastic barbie-type doll. She's trying to hard to be famous and she's not even talented!

    She looks sick in this picture, Poor girl.. I think she is going be to be more screwed up than Britney Spears

    Her head looks too big for her body. Not good. Something about the upper part does not look right. Oh, she thinks the internet is lame? WELL... I think she is lame and her stupid Hannah Montana character is lame. Never viewed the show but saw some of it here and there while flipping channels. Bad acting. She's so full of herself and still a teenager.

    Her head looks 10 times the size of her body.

    She has a point. Ironic as I write this ON the Internet, but she definitely has a point. It's good advice.

  • March 17, 2010 - 12:46am Ash

    Her face is lame.

  • March 17, 2010 - 12:35am Jay

    I'm SHOCKED. THIS is the very first thing this girl has ever said or done that I like. Can't stand her singing, her acting, her personality, her voice, her appearance, I have NO idea why anyone would like her, BUT I applaud her for what she says here. I spend 1 hr a day on the internet checking my mail and reading this rag, and that's it. I don't belong to any sites either. They are a waste of life. Good for her, glad she got a clue, and her life back.
