    Miley Cyrus denies making THOSE bold claims about Beyoncé, and sets the record straight on Twitter.

    Miley Cyrus found herself at the centre of another media storm yesterday, after she was said to have made some pretty bold claims about Beyoncé.

    And while the Wrecking Ball star is no stranger to controversial moments, Miley has taken to Twitter to fiercely deny the claims that she called herself the new Queen Bey.

    Oh dear.

    It all started when Miley was quoted to have said: ‘As Beyonce grows in motherhood and all the c**p it does to your body, it will create a vacuum for fresh young faces to rise up and no one else can properly fill that void right now. I'm the only white female singer that could fill that slot right now and do it right, you know... Beyoncé has been a big inspiration to me but she’s been out for such a long time.'

    As if that wasn’t enough, she was also said to have added: I got the total package, you know, the curves, the rhythm, and the voice. I’m just the best.’

    Hollywoodlife.com attributed the comments to Miley’s recent interview with LOVE magazine, which both the glossy publication and Miley were quick to slam as false.

    The mag tweeted: '@MileyCyrus never said anything to us about Beyonce, the quotes were made up and we're trying to get to the bottom of where this came from.'

    Miley added: 'That quote people MADE UP about Beyonce just made me lol! Imagine if I said I got "the looks and the curves I'm just better!" Bahahahhaha.'

    'How are people allowed to make up shit & then out quotes around it saying I said that shit! WTF!!?!.'

    Here's hoping Beyoncé didn't read much into the rumours like the rest of Twitter appeared to. There's only one Queen Bey, after all.
