When former pop stars want to transition into more mature content, they often take a leaf out of Miley Cyrus’s book and dive headfirst into provocative and sexualized performances.

Cyrus has a reputation for turning up the heat with her provocative performances and revealing outfits. It seems like she’s using her suggestive twerking to shed her innocent image and embrace her wild side. According to her manager, Larry Rudolph, there’s no scheme or strategy in place for former Disney stars who want to reinvent themselves. He believes it can only happen naturally and not through a calculated plan devised by record executives or managers.
