Miley Cyrus defies death hoax with topless Instagram photo

Miley Cyrus has put rumours of her untimely demise to bed with a new topless Instagram photo.

A clickbait style link appeared on Facebook recently that said the singer had been found dead in Los Angeles after suffering an overdose.

It read: "Miley Cyrus Found Dead in Her Los Angeles Home! Country singer Miley Cyrus found overdosed this afternoon in her Los Angeles home."

The rumours were well and truly dashed by the US star herself, who took to Instagram to post a series of photos - including one of herself topless in a desert.

Cyrus meanwhile recently got a new tattoo in honour of her late dog Floyd, who passed away in April.

Flaming Lips singer Wayne Coyne was also pictured getting the same piece of body art.
