Miley Cyrus, one of the most internationally renowned pop stars of the moment, has once more surprised her fans and haters alike, except this time it's not due to an irreverent act like we're used to.

With a new look that leaves her almost unrecognizable, Miley Cyrus became the cover for W Magazine in its March edition, and the photo shoot that the star did for the prestigious publication promises to show a little-known aspect of the artist.

The short and blonde hair that until recently had become one of her most characteristic features has given way to a new hair color and blonde eye brows and a more serious demeanor.

Always controversial, Miley has taken the opportunity to sensually pose completely naked for the monthly magazine that will also published an interview with the peculiar singer on March.

The pictures W Magazine has released as a preview show Cyrus with longer fingernails and various rings on her fingers, while the singer is covered only by a pillow.

According to E! Online, the blonde was interviewed by Ron Farrow, and in their talk to be published on March, Miley took the opportunity to say that her upcoming "Bangerz" tour was not made to please anyone.

"I simply don't understand what half the girls are wearing. Everyone looks like Vanna White. I'm trying to tell girls something like, you're not forced to wear makeup, and you don't have to have long and blonde hair and big breasts. That's not what it's all about. It's about having your own personal style. I like being associated to sexuality and punk rock, where things don't matter," said the controversial singer.

Miley's transformation has been so radical that if it weren't for the tattoo she has on her hip, it would be almost impossible to recognize her, and it's now a matter of seeing whether it's a long-term change or just a part of the photo shoot.
