We can’t stop, and we won’t stop obsessing over Miley Cyrus. Cyrus has transformed from young Miley Stewart on Disney’s "Hannah Montana" to edgy Bangerz artist. She may have originated as a Disney Channel star, but this 20-year-old triple threat is quickly making a new name for herself as America’s hottest pop sensation. Read on for five reasons why College Gloss loves Miley Cyrus.

1. She’s isn’t afraid to be herself
Miley Cyrus is breaking out of her shell and making quite the statement while doing it. Cyrus has played many different roles and tried out various styles, but she is finally showing fans who she truly is. She is quickly moving away from the image that the media has created for her; and, instead, she is shaping that image.

2. She’s a fashion icon
Miley Cyrus has an eye for fashion. Not only has she been experimenting with her wild side lately, but she has been starting plenty of trends while doing it. In a recent interview with Hunger TV, Miley opened up about her personal style: “There’s definitely something amazing about being so lady like yet being so punk,” the 20-year old said.

From her ever-changing hairstyles to her courageousness in making fashion statements, she sure does know how to catch everyone’s attention. Cyrus is showing the world that taking fashion risks is one way to make people talk.

3. Her vocals are remarkable
Cyrus can sing her heart out and has shown the world that she is indeed a force to be reckoned with. The release of “We Can’t Stop,” the first single from Miley’s hit new album Bangerz, was an instant sensation selling over 200,000 copies in the first week, with the music video breaking the VEVO record for most views in 24 hours. As if that wasn’t enough for the pop queen, her next single, “Wrecking Ball,” topped the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 1.

Cyrus’ vocals have quickly helped her become a pop icon with people everywhere talking. Not only the fans can’t get enough of the pop queen’s new album, but celeb’s also have taken note. Ed Sheeran recently complimented Cyrus in an interview with “The Mirror,” saying, “I think she’s got an amazing voice.”

4. She is today’s hottest “It Girl"
Cyrus’ ambition, fearlessness and extreme confidence have made her a hot topic. Her controversial VMA performance started as 20 seconds of fame and turned into months of people talking. By shocking the world with a performance that nobody was expecting, Cyrus successfully made the transformation from tween celebrity to adult sensation. The provocative routine got the world's attention, allowing Cyrus to take her career in the direction she wanted. Her drive for success and determination will continue to keep people talking, as Cyrus’ career only continues to blossom.

5. She’s comfortable in her own skin
Miley Cyrus is not afraid to be different, and the confidence she exhibits, along with her ability to just be herself, has allowed for the transition of the year. She may beat to her own drum, but believing in herself makes anything possible. “I want to be really clear and determined with everything I’m doing in my life right now, and I have been. I keep saying I’m the happiest I’ve ever been and that’s not even a dig,” Cyrus said when she opened up to Ellen DeGeneres in an interview. “I really am genuinely happy finally with myself.”

Miley Cyrus is a star to watch. With her impressive vocals, keen fashion sense and infinite courage, Cyrus has endless career opportunities awaiting her.
