Pop star Miley Cyrus feels weed is much better than cocaine, describing the latter class-A drug as 'so gross' and dated.
The 20-year-old 'We Can't Stop' hitmaker has opened up about her drug use, insisting she prefers the so-called 'social drugs' despite Hollywood being a supposed 'coke town', reported Rolling Stone magazine.
"One time I smoked a joint with peyote in it, and I saw a wolf howling at the moon. Hollywood is a coke town, but weed is so much better. And Molly (MDMA), too. Those are happy drugs - social drugs. They make you want to be with friends. You're out in the open. You're not in a bathroom," Cyrus said.
"I really don't like coke. It's so gross and so dark. It's like, what are you, from the '90s?" she added.
Cyrus also discussed her new video 'Wrecking Ball', saying while people might 'hate it' at first, she expects it to become as iconic as Sinead O'Connor's 'Nothing Compares 2 U', in which the singer- then bald - sings and cries at the camera.
"I think people are going to hate it; they're going to see my ass and be like, 'Oh my God, I can't believe she did that'... I think it will be one of those iconic videos, too. I think it's something that people are not gonna forget," Cyrus said.
"Hopefully an artist 30 years from now will be like, 'Yo, you remember that Miley Cyrus video? We gotta do something like that'," she said.
