Miley Cyrus has defended her figure after she was accused of being fat. The former 'Hannah Montana' star was criticised after sporting a new curvier shape but Miley - who is dating 'The Hunger Games' star Liam Hemsworth - has taken to twitter to hit back at the name callers.

The star posted a picture of an emaciated woman whose ribs were visible and wrote: "By calling girls like me fat, this is what you're doing to other people. I love MYSELF & If you could say the same you wouldn't be sitting on your computer trying to hurt others."

We always thought Miley was a bit too sickly sweet but know we know she has this kind of girl power attitude going on, we have to admit we've developed a girl crush!

Miley then tweeted a picture of curvaceous blonde bombshell Marilyn Monroe and wrote that men - including Liam - prefer curvy women.

She said: "Proof that you can be adored by thousands of men even when your thighs touch. I don't wanna be shaped like a girl. I LOVE being shaped like a WOMAN & trust me ladies your man won't mind either."

With that in mind we're reaching for the biscuits! Thanks Miley - as if we needed an excuse!
