Nile Rodgers on watching Miley Cyrus perform: 'My jaw dropped'

Iconic musician and Chic star Nile Rodgers has revealed that he is a massive fan of 'We Can't Stop' sensation Miley Cyrus

During a new interview with Q magazine, the star explained that he became interested in Cyrus after seeing her perform live because she was fantastic and it really blew him away:

"I've also become the biggest Miley Cyrus fan on the planet. I've watched her sing live twice, my jaw dropped! Have I ever thought about working with a contemporary rock band? The Strokes are awesome and I like Arctic Monkeys a lot too. I'd most like to do the Red Hot Chili Peppers, I've always dug them for some reason."

Earlier this month, Rodgers hinted that a collaboration with Cyrus might happen in the future as he told Digital Spy that he called her up and asked if she would be up for working with him:

"I've also become really good friends with Miley Cyrus, who sings her ass off! All of this stuff just happened in the last few days, and I'm thinking, 'Wait a minute, these people are amazing. Why am I going to fool around?' So I just called up Miley and was like, 'Yo Miley do you want to do this?' [And she's like] 'Yeah!'."
