Miley dubs Twilight saga 'a cult'
Wednesday November 25 2009
Miley Cyrus has revealed that she isn't a fan of the Twilight saga, even likening it to "a cult".
The Hannah Montana star is sure to face the wrath of the fans of the vampire series, who call themselves Twi-hards, after she told US radio show Sirius XM: "I think it's a cult, I think it's bad - I think it's like, just people get too into it."
She added: "For me, I think it's like when guys look at supermodels and they're like, 'that's the perfect girl'. That's what those kind of movies do to us. They're thinking that's what girls should be like and not everyone is going to be Edward, hate to say it."
Miley admitted that Robert Pattinson, who plays vegetarian vampire Edward Cullen, and vampires are not her taste.
"Johnny Depp is way hotter than Robert Pattinson, for sure," said the pop princess.
"There's not many things about me that are like a normal teenage girl, but the one, like, normal teenage girl thing is that I think Zac Efron is the hottest person in the world."
She went on: "I really, really like him. And it's weird because he's my friend. I think also the reason that he is so sexy is because he and Vanessa [Hudgens] have been together since the first High School Musical and I think that's really cool."
