Daddy's girl: Miley Cyrus and her father Billy Ray spend some quality time together on the beach while on holiday in Mexico


In recent months Miley Cyrus has shed her butter-wouldn't-melt Disney image for altogether more raunchy style.

However, once back in the company of her father Billy Ray the 17-year-old is, of course on her best behaviour.

The Hannah Montana star could have risked a telling off from her country singing father, as she took in the sun in Mexico in a tiny two-piece red polka dot bikini

However, as a successful teenage star in her own right Billy Ray would have had a harder time than most parents of teens in convincing her not to wear the skimpy number.

Miley and her father had a relaxed day on the beach as their family hit Mexico for a holiday.

They took a stroll along the sandy dunes, before heading towards the sea - letting the waves lap at their feet.

All grown up: The 17-year-old lets the waves lap at her feet - she has sexed up her image since leaving the Disney show that made her famous


Miley, who is dating actor Liam Hemsworth, recently threw a party to celebrate her departure from childrens' favourite Hannah Montana.

Now concentrating on a full-blown musical career, she has sexed up her squeaky clean image and will now focus on more serious acting roles.

However, with her career going from strength to strength, the actress has risked setting a bad example to her young fans (and the wrath of her parents) by deciding against going college.


Career focus: Miley may have risked the wrath of her father after revealing that she does not intend to go to college for the forseeable future


She recently admitted she has no immediate plans to continue her studies and will put education on hold while she focuses on acting and singing.

In an interview on Q100's Bert Show, she said: 'I am a firm believer that you can go back at any age you want, because my grandma went back to college at 62 years old.'

The star also confessed that she feels pressure from the public to maintain a certain child-like persona.


New direction: Miley and her father enjoy the Mexican sun - she recently recorded a remix of her new song Can't Be Tamed with rap star Lil Jon


'No-one ever wants to see someone grow up. It's like when Hilary Duff started growing up off the Disney Channel.

'Everyone thought she was anorexic and she did this and that. It's just because she grew up! She didn't look like a 12-year-old anymore.'

Meanwhile, Miley's music career is already floruishing and moving into new, unexplored terrain.

She recently recorded a remix of her new song Can't Be Tamed with rap star Lil Jon.

The song, taken from the singer's album of the same name, was re-recorded at the Rock Mafia recording studio in Santa Monica, California.

Miley and Lil Jon got together by accident after Lil Jon was amusingly given Cyrus' old mobile phone number, and began receiving phone calls for her.

Their remix has yet to be released but Lil Jon revealed: '[It's] crazy, it's crazy.

I think everybody's gonna really enjoy the song.'

The rock theme will be continued on Lil Jon's long-awaited album, Crunk Rock, which is set for a June 8 release.
