Miley Cyrus has a private pose-off in the studio!

If Miley Cyrus is gonna record, she's gonna do it in STYLE.

First off, Miley Cyrus is back in the studio with Pharrell! And hey, it's not like that's actually news to us, but the general concept still thrills us to no end. But now on to more important subjects: SELFIES! After all, it IS Miley's favorite thing to do, so why shouldn't she have a quick "vogue-off" moment next to the keyboards? (Also, DYING FOR THAT HAIR WRAP!)

The "Ashtrays And Heartbreaks" singer snapped the photo in the studio with the caption "Studio with @Pharrell & @StacyBarthe (swaggajacked her sickkkk glasses)." Now, we'd just like to point out that we toooootally predicted this kind of in-studio behavior. How? Because if you were the No. 1 girl on Maxim's Hot 100 list, wouldn't you want to take nonstop selfies of your contest-winning body and face at all times? And here's the other thing: It's not like we don't love Miley's frequent dog-stagrams, it's just that those don't exactly motivate us to put down the carbs and hit the Pilates mat! June is right around the corner, so a few more toned abs photos would be great, Miley! #BikiniSeasonIsComing

Miley Cyrus and super-producer Mike WiLL Made It hop on a plane.

Miley Cyrus shows off her private ride with music producer Mike WiLL Made It.

When you're Maxim's No.1 Hottest Woman like Miley Cyrus, you don't have to wait around for a 3-hour-late commercial flight. You also don't have to deal with things like full overhead storage compartments, crying babies, middle seats (IN COACH!), and seatmates who fall asleep on your shoulder/eat ripe-smelling tuna fish sandwiches. (This anecdote is based on a true flight nightmare.) Instead, Miley just hops on a PRIVATE plane at LAX with a dream and plenty of carry on space. #BestLife

The spiky-haired singer shared the photo of her prepping to board a PJ on her brand-new Instagram account (aka our new obsession) with super-producer and expert gift giver Mike WiLL Made It (creator of Rihanna's "Pour It Up," Juicy J's "Bandz A Make Her Dance," Ciara's "Body Party," Lil Wayne's "Love Me," just to name a few). Hey! Maybe the two are heading to some remote location on an exotic island we never even knew existed where Miley can FINALLY finish her forthcoming album? Either that, or the two are just plane-pooling to the office (that's like carpooling but with planes). Miley's just doing her part to be environmentally friendly! (Yeah... that's it.)

Miley Cyrus rocked "Justin Bieber Bed Head" to the 2013 Met Gala.

Miley Cyrus went "Justin Bieber bed head"-chic at the 2013 Met Gala!

Last night approximately 1 billion celebrities flocked to the 2013 Met Gala in NYC, and it looked like one of the most spectacular red carpet events we've seen (on the internet) in a minute. Why? Well, for one thing the theme was "Punk: Chaos To Couture," which could easily be interpreted a variety of ways (especially when the guest list includes people like Nicki Minaj and Kim Kardashian). And speaking of Gala guests, Miley Cyrus, who usually seems more than happy to throw on a few punk-inspired spikes 'n' studs (preferably to the tune of Billy Idol's "Rebel Yell"), looked totally on point in a fishnet gown. Hmmm, but maybe she should've stuck to a classic mohawk, 'cause girlfriend's got some major JUSTIN BIEBER BED HEAD going on!

Yeah, remember that time Justin Bieber Instagramed his just-woken-up look? Well, Miley must've memorized Justin's 'do, showed it to her hairstylist, and said, "Screw Nancy Spungen and Blondie -- I want to look like THIS at tonight's Met Gala." Well, if anyone could pull it off, it'd be Miley! We know the "Ashtrays and Heartbreaks" singer isn't afraid to channel a variety of artists, be it Justin Bieber or Billy Idol -- and you know what else this means? With a punk rock hairdo/Justin Bieber bed head, Miley can just roll out of bed for brunch the next morning! No shower necessary.

+ Speaking of Beyoncé, she and a host of A-listers attended last night's Met Gala (guess our invitations got lost in the mail); the theme of the night was punk. Check out photos of Beyoncé, Nicki Minaj, Kanye West, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, and more. (MTV Style)

Miley Cyrus is #1 on Maxim's Hot 100 list!

Miley Cyrus got the No. 1 spot on Maxim's Hot 100 list! (And is anyone surprised?)

We can't exactly label the above photo NSFW, but, well, DAYUM, Miley Cyrus is looking like a serious fox, and it's kind of hard to take right now, especially considering the raisin bagel with full-fat cream cheese we ate this morning. Anyway, what we're trying to say here is that the professional arabesque-er just snagged the No. 1 spot on Maxim's Hot 100 list, and uhhh, WE CAN SEE WHY.

Wanna know how the "Ashtrays And Heartbreaks" singer celebrated her Maxim achievement?! Nope, it wasn't by ordering a large pizza with extra cheese! Miley chose the way less caloric option of joining Instagram! That's right! Feel free to un-follow those 10 bogus Miley accounts, because Miley's officially an Insta girl! Why did Miley join this late in the game? Well, maybe because it's 2013 and get on Instagram, but also how GORG are Miley's dog photos gonna look through an Instagram filter? (Amaro is a personal fave.) Also, maybe she could run a few wedding pics through a filter? Because there's still a strong chance she's probably (hopefully) getting married to Liam Hemsworth. What!? We're just thinking ahead and trying to help Miley socially organize her wedding day. GEEZ.

Check out Miley Cyrus' amazing Throwback Thursday photo!

We LOVE Miley Cyrus' Throwback Thursday photo!

We love a good #TBT around here, and honestly, on what PLANET does a better Throwback Thursday exist than the above photo of Miley Cyrus straight flexin' in the arabesque position! In basically the exact same position! In two different phases of her life!! So special. And of course I'll refrain from mentioning my most recent #TBT, which is me riding a toy horse while holding a diet Pepsi in one hand and a balloon in another. But I wouldn't wanna steal Miley's thunder or whatever.

Based on the above Twitter photo, we proooobably wouldn't have guessed that the adorable little kid in head-to-toe lavender would eventually go on to release dope collaborations like "Ashtrays And Heartbreaks" with Snoop Lion and "Fall Down" with will.i.am, AND be the reigning Queen of underboob and side butt cheek! But the world is full of surprises, isn't it? Miley, PLEASE POST MOAR #TBTs! It's not that we don't love seeing 10,000 photos of your dogs, but getting the inside scoop on Mini-Miley would also be PERF.

Hear Nicki Minaj's remix of Carly Rae Jepsen's "Tonight I'm Getting Over You," watch Deftones' Kris Kross tribute mashup + is Kanye West's new album out June 18 in today's Buzz Bites.

Hear Nicki Minaj's remix of Carly Rae Jepsen's "Tonight I'm Getting Over You."

+ Listen to Nicki Minaj's remix of Carly Rae Jepsen's "Tonight I'm Getting Over You." In Nicki's verse, she isn't boo-hooing over a breakup. Instead, she raps "Tonight I'm getting ov-er/ Meditate and do my yog-er," and then heads to the club, natch. (MTV News)

+ Speaking of Ms. Minaj, she and Lil Wayne are teaming up to perform at the 2013 Billboard Music Awards, which airs May 19 on ABC. The event will also feature performances by Jennifer LopezChris Brown, Icona Pop, and Ed Sheeran. (MTV News)

+ Watch Deftones' mashup of their own "Engine No. 9" with Kris Kross' "Jump" in a tribute to Chris Kelly, who passed away on Wednesday. Drummer Abe Cunningham also wore his shirt backward and inside out to pay respect. (Rolling Stone)

+ It just took one tweet from Kanye West yesterday to get us super excited about new Yeezy music (we hope -- either that or he was tweeting Kim Kardashian's due date). "June Eighteen," he tweeted. Granted, that's not much info, but it could mean a new album or song (or baby) will drop that day. (RapFix)

+ Want to see a little more of Miley Cyrus' V Magazine spread? Check out the behind-the-scenes video where she twerks and works it for the camera. (Just Jared)

+ Psy strikes us as a pretty humorous guy, so it seems fitting that the first book he stars in would be of the comic variety. The "Gentleman" singer's biographical comic book will be titled "Fame: Psy." (Billboard)

+ Slayer guitarist and founding member Jeff Hanneman died yesterday of liver failure. He was 49. (MTV News)
