Miley Cyrus has opened up on what it is like to work with Pharrell Williams.

The Hannah Montana star is currently working on the follow-up to her 2010 release 'Can't Be Tamed', which was her third studio album.

She has revealed that she has been working with Williams on new material, who has helped produce the likes of Justin Timberlake and Adam Lambert.

Speaking to Billboard, Cyrus said that meeting up with the Grammy winning producer for their first session felt like "deja vu". She said:

"[He's] like the dopest person on the planet. He really is just so insane and he's become just like family. I've never met someone where it's been kind of like deja vu, you feel like you've known them before, [but] that's exactly how our first session was."

Cyrus added: "I had gone to new labels, new management...all these big changes. To find him and something that felt really familiar was really, really good."
