Will.i.am "applauds" Miley Cyrus's reinvention

Will.i.am has spoken out in praise of Miley Cyrus and her image change.

The US singer took 2013 by storm as she swapped her innocent Hannah Montana image for a more sexualised and raunchy ethos.

Speaking to Capital FM, Voice UK coach will.i.am said that Cyrus should be praised for her reinvention, stating:

"Miley is Miley! In 2009 her Hannah Montana movie was out. I mean she was Hannah Montana like a couple weeks ago, and now she's Miley Cyrus. In a totally different way she reinvented herself. And hat's off, I applaud her for that, re-educating the entire planet on who she truly is."

However, whilst Cyrus has gone on record to say that she is often playing the role of a character when in public, will.i.am seemed to suggest otherwise.

He added: "She's not playing a character, that's exactly how she is and she's amazing."
