Miley Cyrus and her pet pig, Bubba Sue, lovingly embrace on the cover of Paper's 2015 Summer Music Issue. Although the full cover story and more "absolutely insane photos of Miley" aren't landing until tomorrow, Paper already hinted at the Miley-esque quotes to come with this thoughtful nugget:
I was doing a show two nights ago, and I was wearing butterfly nipple pasties and butterfly wings. I'm standing there with my tits out, dressed like a butterfly. How the fuck is that fair? How am I so lucky?
In addition, the animal lover will talk about her inspiration behind the Happy Hippie Foundation, bringing together the "unapologetic, shit-kicking Miley," and the "engaged and compassionate side." But really, the most important thing here is the expression on Bubba Sue's face, which is perhaps the reason for the "100" emoji.
