Miley Cyrus: I've never been sex shy

Miley Cyrus has never been shy about sex.

The 22-year-old Wrecking Ball singer is the daughter of Billy Ray and Tish Cyrus.

When she was growing up, Miley's parents were happy to discuss intercourse with their kids.

"Most people are shy to have a conversation about sex in general or sexuality, I've never been that type of person," Miley told Extra. "My parents were always so cool about me asking a billion questions… it was never a thing where I had to ask, my parents would just talk to us about it."

Miley's performances are known the world over for being rich with glaring, uninhibited sexuality.

And the songstress admits she prefers being nude in her private quarters.

"As you would imagine, I walk around naked a lot… you get bored in some hotel rooms, you get naked and you take some pictures," she shared.

Miley has a huge social media following, with 14.9 million followers on Instagram.

When she's not posting things on her profile, many of her close associates start freaking out.

"When I'm actually busy and having a life -- people don't know what's happening," she explained to ET Online. "People will literally text me and ask me if I'm okay. My managers are always like, 'Are you okay? Are you on this planet? Because we haven't heard from you, we haven't seen any Instagram posts.'"

Miley's unbridled self-expression leads many to believe she's out of control.

But the star dismisses this perspective, as she's actually very balanced.

"I think people try to make me seem a lot less centered than I am," Miley shared with ET. "You make choices and sometimes they're right, sometimes they're wrong just like in life. Mine are magnified and people kind of try to make you seem out of control when actually I'm a pretty, happy, centered person that likes to do a lot of things for people."
