I think she's a nice girl. Yes, she twerks, she sticks her tongue out, she appears naked in a video, she licks a hammer, she dances with Robin Thicke... But whatever, that doesn't have to do anything with her personality. She's fun and sweet.
She's got a good voice, she was funny in Hanna Montana and she tries diffferent kinds of music ( she was into pop_rock, ballads before and now it's more R&B and pop )... She need to work more on her performances instead on mainly trying to be outrageous.. Gaga can be outrageous but you always see her talent when the VMA's perfomance of miley was botched behind all the provocation to me...
Talented girl.. she can actually sing.. as Madonna in the 80s had made fashion that a Pop Star shouldnt necessarily be able to sing, nowadays (and Gaga contributed to this a lot) a Pop Artist must again be able to sing well. Her ass though needs work before she starts showing it all over again
She has the makings of a half-decent singer and will grow out of the shock tactics, she is still very young - not into all the slut shaming that has been happening on the internet when male artists get a complete pass on the women who are in their videos and performances just as eye candy.
