TORONTO, Canada — Miley Cyrus rocked the stage Sunday night at the 2010 MuchMusic Video Awards with a pair of sex-charged performances.
The 17-year-old pop star turned plenty of heads as she belted out "Party in the U.S.A." in a revealing black leotard. She also performed a tribal-themed version of her new single "Can't Be Tamed" in a skin-tight white outfit. Cyrus recently opened up about the criticism directed at her over her sometimes racy attire, insisting that she's "not trying to be slutty."
"I'm really comfortable with my body, I work really hard to be fit and to know that I can wear whatever makes me most comfortable," she told the Associated Press. "I feel more comfortable dressing with a little less, which is just how I've always been."
"Now I'm able to do that a little more freely and, also, I've just grown up to be this way too. It's not like this was me five years ago. It's me now, presently."
Cyrus also said she's looking forward to embracing her sex appeal once her Hannah Montana days come to an end later this year.
"When you're 11, the word you would use to describe someone is definitely not sexy, and as you get older I think you grow into that," she explained. "And I think I've done that but that's not my schtick. That's not what I'm trying to do to sell records. I want people to buy my record because of my music."
