Miley Cyrus wants you to know that she does not like to be labeled. In a new interview with the Associated Press, the "Wrecking Ball" singer revealed that she has had previous relationships that were not "heterosexual" or "straight." 

Her "straight" relationships have always been in the spotlight-the pop star just recently called it quits with the son of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver, Patrick Schwarzenegger. The latter was spotted hugging a bikini-clad girl and doing body shots off of his ex-girlfriend while on spring break.

Miley Cyrus and Hunger Games actor, Liam Hemsworth, had decided to call of their engagement in 2013. Before that, she famously dated Nick Jonas, but now, it seems like she has exes that no one is aware of. Unfortunately, she failed to elaborate on that.

The 22-year old singer and actress, who just recently launched a foundation for LGBT kids and the homeless called the "Happy Hippe Foundation," has long been an activist for various social causes including marriage equality and the "Free the Nipple" campaign.

Now, Miley Cyrus wants to tackle gender norms and identity.

The LOL star shared on Tuesday to Out magazine that she, just like other young teens, has experienced difficulties regarding gender expectations.

Miley Cyrus explains that she does not identify to a specific gender and simply wants to be "nothing." She adds that she does not relate to what people define as a boy or a girl.

"Being a girl is not what I hate, it's the box that I get put into," said Miley Cyrus.

She then took to her Instagram account the next day to reaffirm what she felt, posting her response from the interview, with the caption, "Nothing can/will define me! Free to be everything!!!!"

The singer also took advantage of her celebrity status to raise more awareness for the organizations she personally feels a connection to. Miley Cyrus told the news agency the she knows she would get more attention if her breasts are out and once the attention is all on her, then she would start talking about her foundation and "hustle" the people.
