Billy Ray Cyrus doesn't have a beef with his 15-year-old daughter Miley dating 20-year-old aspiring musician Justin Gaston.

"He actually reminds me a lot of myself when I was 20-years-old and I was living and searching for the dream," Billy Ray tells Access Hollywood of the model (and former Nashville Star contestant).

"He's got a great heart and soul, and a lot of determination," Billy Ray added. "I think that's the true measure of a man, is when you measure his heart."

Gaston and Cyrus have gotten cozy since they were first linked together last month.

He was spotted attending an L.A. church with her family and supported her at Disney's Concert for Hope, where she performed.

Most recently, he serenaded Miley at her pre-Sweet 16 bash at Disneyland this past weekend.
