Miley Cyrus has a confession to make—her hit single "Party in the U.S.A." isn't nearly as autobiographical as it may seem.
In the song, the Hannah Montana star famously sings about how her homesickness and tension are alleviated when a Jay-Z song comes on the radio.
However, as it turns out—and you'd better sit down for this—such a scenario never occurred.
During a recent interview in Louisville, Kentucky, a reporter asked her which Jay-Z song had inspired the lyric, and Cyrus confessed,
"I don't know, I didn't write the song, so I have no idea. Honestly, I picked that song because I needed something to go with my clothing line. I didn't write it [and] I didn't expect it to be popular, originally. It was just something that I wanted to do and I needed some songs and it turned out for the best...I've never heard a Jay-Z song. I don't listen to pop music. ['Party in the U.S.A.'] is not even my style of music."
Well, you have to at least give her points for honesty. But what's next? Will she now tell us that she's never actually engaged in a hoedown throwdown?
Let us know in the comments section: Should Miley Cyrus stick to singing what she knows about?

what does she mean by she doesn't listen to pop music? dumbass. jay-z sings hip hop. and HELLO, SHE sings pop. so she doesn't listen to the kind of songs she sings? wow.
Funny how she admits that in my city. My neighbor went to her concert too. Pssh. She should listen to pop, that is her genre.
Miley is going to do more country for her next album. That's what she said. Her recent EP wasn't her style of music and it was just to promote her clothing line. That's what she means about "I don't listen to pop music. ['Party in the U.S.A.'] is not even my style of music."
why don't you morons re-read the article and then ask your parents to help you figure out the parts you don't understand
good she shouldn't listen to any of jay z's songs they're wack anyways!!!!! shes better off!!!!!! go miley!!!!!! i love party in the U.S.A.!!
are you kidding me? miley didn't write "party in the usa"? im so surprised because it sounds like something she would've written about. but then again her dad has helped her out since she started 'hannah montana" and wrote most of her songs for her so i'm kinda not surprised now i guess? but if she didn't write it..who did? her dad?
Miley only co-wrote two songs on her EP.
wow.are you effin kidding me!jay-z is so much better than this b***h.clearly yo dont know about music.
yeah miley not smart how do you expect your fans to like you and your music when you 1. don't recognize other famous and respected artist like jay-z and 2. don't even like your own music .....
Huh...she does know that Britney Spears is a pop singer?
So technically she DOES listen to some pop music.
