Miley Cyrus has admitted that her former Disney show 'Hannah Montana' caused her to have body issues because she was constantly dressing up to ''look like someone I wasn’t."
Miley Cyrus as 'Hannah Montana'
In hewr interview with Marie Claire magazine, the pop star explains that ''From the time I was 11, it was, ‘You’re a pop star! That means you have to be blonde, and you have to have long hair, and you have to put on some glittery tight thing.' Meanwhile, I’m this fragile little girl playing a 16-year-old in a wig and a ton of makeup,'' while comparing the experience to TLC’s 'Toddlers & Tiaras.'
Cyrus also tells the magazine she thinks the Disney show ''probably caused some body dysmorphia because I had been made pretty every day for so long, and then when I wasn’t on that show, it was like, ‘Who the f*ck am I?'” Adding that, ''I was made to look like someone that I wasn’t.''
Cyrus, who sometimes tries to go against beauty norms by often flaunting her underarm hair, as we previously reported, admits in the magazine she still gets “stuck” sometimes comparing herself to women she sees in retouched, perfect photos.
Cyrus explains, ''You feel like sh*t. They lighten black girls’ skin. They smooth out wrinkles… It’s crazy what people have decided we’re all supposed to be. I'll probably never going to be the face of a traditional beauty company unless they want a weed-smoking, liberal-ass freak. But my dream was never to sell lip gloss. My dream is to save the world.''
