Why Miley Cyrus Sticks Out Her Tongue So Much

And there you have it.

In her upcoming interview, Cyrus also opens up about her failed engagement to ex-fiancé Liam Hemsworth.

"I was so scared of ever being alone, and I think, conquering that fear, this year, was actually bigger than any other transition that I had, this entire year," Cyrus tells Walters. "I don't ever want to have to need someone again, where you feel like, without them, you can't be yourself."

"I don't think I realized what 19 truly is, and I got engaged at 19, and I definitely wouldn't change being engaged," she adds. "It was so fun wearing a fat rock for a few years. But now...I wait for those moments of silence, when I'm just at my house, by myself."
