Miley Cyrus doesn't regret her controversial, semi-topless Vanity Fair spread shot by Annie Leibovitz earlier this year. In fact, she says the pictures inspired her to want to be a photographer.

"Everyone outside of America liked it a little bit more because that's more like the style, but the States are really conservative," Cyrus told the UK's Daily Record.

After the photos were published in June, the Disney star said she was "embarrassed" and called the shoot "a mistake." The Hannah Montana star - who recently celebrated her 16th birthday - was only 15 years old when she appeared in the magazine with only a blanket wrapped around her chest.

But now?

"Guess I just had to deal with that and just realize that I got to work with an amazing photographer," she said. "She was amazing and so talented and her lighting... I would love to work with her again. But I realize I'm just a kid."

Cyrus even said she's considering ditching performing to step behind the camera.

"That's what I want to do with my life. I would love to be a photographer," she said. "I want to come to London to study. I hear there are some great art schools here so I would love to do that."

Meanwhile, the singer also opened up about another topic that has people buzzing: her 20-year-old underwear model beau Justin Gaston.

"I'm surrounded by good-looking guys, the models, the actors, this and that, so it ends up not being about that," Cyrus told the paper. "It ends up being about the personality and the way someone treats you."

The teen queen -- who used to date Nick Jonas -- added: "Also, being around so many actors, I feel a lot of people treat them really badly. If anyone treats people really sweet, then that's what's really appealing."

How do her parents feel?


"My parents are really chill with me until I give them a reason not to be!" she said.

    This girl apologized for the first debacle. Now she wants to have the same or a similar experience again?! She did the half-dressed shots, purportedly with her dad's permission. An underage kid in that pose is tasteless & needless for print, except for the shock value it got!!

    Uhm,wtf.I don't think there was anything wrong with the vanity fair shoot AT ALL. It's her BACK,people. Haven't you seen a girl's back before? Is she never supposed to wear a swimsuit? I guess it's not great for a disney star, but it's not as though she made a porno or ANYTHING. Get over it!
