But it seems the star was feeling nostalgic for a more innocent time this week as she posted a picture of herself from Primary school, accompanied by the caption 'if that don't tickle your pickle.'

The smiling picture also reveals the singer's original name 'Destiny Cyrus' which she was called due to her parent's beleif that she would go onto do great things.

Super-cute infant Miley is certainly world's away from the one we have been introduced to this year, with her raunchy performances, including the twerk-tastic one at the VMA's becoming the subject of much discussion.

There was also speculation that her split with fiance Liam Hemsworth was due to her eratic stage antics, which included sticking her tongue out repeatedly, gyrating on giant teddy bears and wearing increasingly skimpy costumes.

But despite her critics, Miley maintains she's 'the happiest I've ever been.' Indeed in her latest tweet, the star announced to her 15 million followers: 'if life gets any better I might actually combust.'

Blimey - don't do that Miles!
