&ldquo;I&rsquo;m surrounded by people who are supposed to guide me,&rdquo; the young actress said. &ldquo;And some of them have and others haven't. They pressure me. There&rsquo;s so much pressure. You gotta be sexy.
You gotta be cute. You gotta be nice. You gotta be all these things. They tell me what to wear, how to look, what I should say, how I should be, until recently I had given in to that pressure.&rdquo;
After getting choked up, she admitted to making some mistakes. &ldquo;I&rsquo;d be lying if I said that I&rsquo;ve never tried to make myself better by giving in, because I have,&rdquo; she continued. Wonder what Miley Cyrus has to say in her defense!
