[News] Miley Cyrus' 'Adore You' Is Third 'Bangerz' Single!

Miley Cyrus' last two singles, "We Can't Stop" and "Wrecking Ball," were two of the biggest songs of 2013 -- and the 21-year-old is betting on a tender love ballad to continue her winning streak. "Adore You," the opening track on Cyrus' "Bangerz" album, has been selected as the third official single from the album, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart in October.

According to a press release, "Adore You" -- which was produced by Oren Yoel -- will impact Top 40 radio on Jan. 6, 2014. "We Can't Stop" peaked at No. 2 on the Hot 100 chart, while "Wrecking Ball" gave Cyrus her first No. 1 single on the tally.

In fact, "Wrecking Ball" returned to the top of the Hot 100 this week, thanks in part to a parody video by YouTube user Stephen Kardynal that utilized the online char service Chatroulette and became a viral sensation. The nine-week gap between "Wrecking Ball" topping the Hot 100 (which included the entirety of Lorde's "Royals" reign on the chart) marks the longest in the Hot 100's history for a song in a single chart run.

Cyrus will be able to showcase "Adore You" live when her Bangerz tour kicks off on Feb. 14, 2014 in Vancouver. The pop star is currently performing as part of the inaugural Jingle Ball tour, which will be held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Friday night (Dec. 6).

[News] Miley has two songs among the "100 Best Songs of the Year" Rolling Stone

14. We Can't Stop

Miley's red-cup-draining party anthem gets weirder – and better – as the rich tapestry that was her year unfolded: Its chorus gets more defiant, its purple-haze melody gets more darkly engulfing. You want to call this song a cab home, but you know it'll never get in.

59. Wrecking Ball

Miley belts a break-up ballad that calls attention to the aspect of her game nobody ever notices – her country-flavored vocal power – and cruises to Number One, proving that Miley's a baller as well as a banger. And the video sets a whole new standard for the erotic exploitation of construction equipment.

[News] Tegan and Sara say Miley Cyrus is 'this generation's Madonna'

Sara Quin of Tegan and Sara has praised Miley Cyrus, calling the pop star "this generation's Madonna".

Cyrus, who released her second solo album 'Bangerz' in October, has had a controversial 2013.

Speaking to NME in this week's issue, Sara Quin shows support for Cyrus and claims that the pop star's body confidence "terrifies" her critics. "The controversy around her shouldn't distract from her being a quintessential pop star," says Quin. 

"She's this generation's Madonna - a hugely talented pop star with agency over her body and sexuality, which terrifies people. And she's constantly switching up between sounds. 'Bangerz' is part electro, part country, part rap, all incredible."

It was recently reported that Cyrus is leading Time magazine's Person of the Year poll ahead of NSA leaker Edward Snowden and The Pope, with 24 per cent of all votes cast. 

Meanwhile, Cyrus was also criticised by anti-drugs campaigners after appearing to smoke a joint onstage at the MTV EMAs in Amsterdam.
