Miley Cyrus Opens Up About Her Image Overhaul

Miley Cyrus has opened up to her good friend Kelly Osbourne about her recent image overhaul, saying she feels like she's "been a character for so long."

Speaking in a segment on an upcoming episode of Fashion Police, Miley said of her transformation from fresh-faced Hannah Montana star to edgy pop princess: 

"I think people think I really am a robot, that was made in Burbank in the Disney building. 

She continued: "People are like, 'How do you make a transformation from a kid to an adult?' I'm like, it's called puberty, everyone's done it from the beginning of time. I'm just doing it and so you're zooming in on it and you're fascinated by it."

The 20-year-old We Can't Stop star added that she wants all of her new material to be 'really honest and real.'

Miley said: "I think people really don't understand how I'm like a real human being. 

"Everything I'm doing with my videos, everything I'm doing with my music, I just want it to be really honest. I just feel like I've been a character for so long that now I just want all my performances all my videos to be really real."

Miley is set to perform at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards, which will air on MTV UK from 8pm on Monday August 26.
