Miley Cyrus has insisted that she’s not in a relationship despite reports that she’s been dating Victoria’s Secret model Stella Maxwell.

The 22-year-old, who is gearing up to host the MTV VMAs this weekend, has opened up about her sexual orientation and dating life in a brand new interview.

Talking to Elle magazine, Cyrus said: “I’m very open about it – I’m pansexual.

“But I’m not in a relationship. I’m 22, I’m going on dates, but I change my style every two weeks, let alone who I’m with.”

The Wrecking Ball singer, who is trying to use her star status as a way to get her voice heard as a gender activist, added:

“If you get your t**s out, and they are all looking, then you can use that space to say something and get them to listen.

“I was kind of embarrassed that I got paid money to shake my ass in a teddy bear costume. I should not be worth the amount I am while people live on the streets.”

After struggling with the way she looks in the past, Cyrus explains how she’s now embraced body image and gender roles.

She told the magazine: 'I’ve had really bad anxiety and depression in my life and a lot of that stemmed from the way I look.

'Now I really try not to give a f**k. If you’re funny enough and cool enough and confident, that’s what will make you feel beautiful.”
