LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" might have opened with huge numbers at the box office and had the biggest November & Friday openings for any movie ever - but teen sensation Miley Cyrus wasn't one of the Twi-hards pledging their allegiance to Team Edward or Team Jacob. In fact, the teen star considers the whole "Twilight" world to be "a cult."

"I think it's like [a] cult... I think it's a cult," Miley told Sirius XM's The Morning Mash Up in an interview that aired on Tuesday. "I think it's bad. I think it's like, just people get too into it."

The "Hannah Montana" star goes on to compare people's obsession with "Twilight" to the public's fascination with models.

"For me, I think it's like when guys look at supermodels and they're like, 'That's the perfect girl,' ... That's what those kind of movies do to us," she continued. "They're like thinking that's what girls should be like and not everyone is going to be Edward, hate to say it."

Miley might be anti-vampire, but she's very pro-pirate.

"Johnny Depp is way hotter than Robert Pattinson, for sure," Miley said when asked about the actor nabbing People magazine's coveted "Sexiest Man Alive" title.

And if the "Pirates of the Caribbean" star hadn't been honored with the award, Miley would have liked to see it go to one of her former Disney pals.

"There's not many things about me that are like a normal teenage girl. But the one like normal teenage girl thing is that I think Zac Efron is the hottest person in the world," Miley said. "I really, really like him. And it's weird... it's weird because he's my friend. I think also the reason that he is so sexy is because he and Vanessa [Hudgens] have been together since the first 'High School Musical' and... I think that's really cool."

And Miley said she has no problem mixing it up with other celebs like Zac.

"No, I'm pretty cool," she joked when asked if she ever gets star struck. "I'm pretty much the coolest person ever... no, I'm pretty cool. I'm pretty much the coolest person ever."

    I believe she is just ranting on about Twillight being a cult and not liking it because there is no attention on her right now, No one is concerned, talking, or gossiping about Miley/Hannah or whoever she wants to be at the moment. She should probably keep those thoughts to herself, because I'm pretty sure that alot of her fans are fans of The Twillight movies too.So she probably lost alot

    She's just a spoiled brat who's jealous because she's not the center of attention & isn't in one of the most popular movies. She sounds completely dumb & needs to get a life, a life not involving someone else's boyfriend. I seriously think Disney celebrities have an expiration date. Wonder when she'll become the next Brittany Spears?
