Miley Cyrus: "Coolest. Person. Ev-er!"

Miley Cyrus, People Magazine

If only every 15-year-old could have Miley Cyrus’ self-esteem.

“Coolest. Person. Ev-er!” she joked to People in a recent interview when asked how she would describe herself.

Then, upon reflection, she replied, “I think I’m chill. I am very hyper but I’m very carefree.”

Aside from her calm and collected side, Cyrus also reveals a few of her oh-so-teenage proclivities, such as her desire for a new car when she turns 16, her big crush on the coolest handbags and her beauty regimenmascara and a suntan.

Ah, to still be years away from voting age.

The star of the upcoming Hannah Montana Movie, which she’s been filming in Nashville this summer, also admits to eating ketchup right out of the bottle (now there’s something the paparazzi have missed) and preferring tomboy wear and Juicy Couture sweats when she doesn’t have to be all dolled up.

But although she might not be your typical girly-girl, it’s not as if she doesn’t make time to think about boys: Ask her who she prefers, McDreamy or McSteamy, and she’ll tell you that she’s a Dempsey girl all the way.

Of course, all this chit-chat is probably just leading up to a few more pressing topics, such as what Cyrus has learned in the wake of the Vanity Fair photo flap.

“A lot has happened,” she says. “There have been a lot of changes, but it’s all good. I’ve been really blessed.”

The teen says that she still has things to learn about “knowing which people I can trust and being more aware of my surroundings. It’s like DorothyI’m not in Kansas anymore.”

Meanwhile, the Disney Channel phenom has a new Hannah-free album, Breakout, ready to drop July 22, all just part of her plan to conquer the world by 18.

Madonna always reinvents herself, and that’s what I want to do,” Cyrus says. “Whatever comes my way that sounds good, that’s what I want to do. Whether it’s designing clothes or photography or whatever.”

After her marathon Monday night, a seemingly disheveled and distressed Britney Spears popped out earlier this morning with mother Lynne and manager Sam Lufti in tow.

According to a witness, “After spending twenty minutes in the parking lot, seemingly having a heated conversation, Britney emerged from her Cadillac Escalade in a see through lace top hastily covered by an inside out and backwards sweater.”

The insider continued: “Not in the mood for smiles she walked on, coffee cup and Kabbalah text in hand to perhaps wake up, car shop, and find spiritual guidance.”

Meanwhile, other sources tell that there is a strained relationship between Lufti and the Spears camp. “The family is staging an intervention so Britney can get help for her bipolar disorder. Family sources say they are furious at Lutfi, claiming he pushed Brit into going to B.H. Mercedes today to buy a new car - in the middle of the effort to save her.”

Britney Spears Gets A New Ride

Britney Spears Gets A New Ride

She was having so much trouble with flat tires, it seems Britney Spears opted for a new car.  And it isn’t just any car.

The “Gimme More” singer said “Gimme that!” when she saw her new 2008 Mercedes Benz SLK 320 convertible.  And when the two-seater - which she paid an up-front amount of $55,000 for - was delivered yesterday, she just had to take it out for a spin.

Unfortunately, her sense of direction didn’t improve, and Brit had to stop and ask the trailing paparazzi for directions during her hour-long tour of Hollywood Hills. 

Spears was wearing a pair of jeans and a black jacket with brown leather knee-high boots.  Thankfully she didn’t run out of gas, ‘cause those boots didn’t look like they were made for walkin’.
