At the tender age of 16, Miley Cyrus is one of the hottest young stars in Hollywood.

But despite her young age, the Hannah Montana star admits she is already feeling under pressure to lose weight.

The singer/actress, whose father is country singer Billy Ray Cyrus, also denied reports she had undergone a boob job, attributing her fuller cleavage to a growth spurt.

She told the American edition of Glamour magazine: 'One thing that bugs me is people who say, "Miley really needs to lose some weight" or "She got her boobs done".

'I did start out really skinny, but you're not going to have boobs when you're 12 years old. I'm like, "What are you talking about - let me grow."'

After months of denying she was dating 21-year-old model Justin Gaston, Miley appears to finally confirm their relationship in the interview.

Miley and Justin have been frequently photographed together with the approval of Miley's parents Billy and Leticia.

She gushed: 'The best thing that’s happened to me in a long, long time has been meeting Justin.

'He’s the most respectful and selfless person I’ve ever known.'

Despite only turning 16 in November, Miley has already started planning the rest of her life and hopes to be married by the time she's 26.

She said: 'Hopefully (in 10 years) I'll be settled: making movies, living in a house, maybe even married.'

Meanwhile, the young star admitted she got emotional when she accepted her Kids Choice Award for Favourite Female Singer at the star-studded ceremony on Saturday night.

She told MTV: 'I was a little embarrassed. But then again, I shouldn't be. It meant something to me because it's from the kids.

'The kids are more important than anything else in the world. So it made me happy.

'Honestly, I didn't think I was going to win it. It just made my day that I did. It means a lot to me.'
