We're very similar, we're both high': Miley Cyrus jokes about parallels with Snoop Lion on TV appearance in tiny denim shorts

She recently smoke out in favour of marijuana in comparison to alcohol.

And now, Miley Cyrus has joked about her similarities with weed fan Snoop Lion.
During an appearance on the Jimmy Kimmel show on Tuesday, the star discussed her unlikely friendship with the rapper, with whom she has recorded a single named Ashtrays and Heartbreaks.

'We're very similar,' she told Kimmel, after revealing that Snoop comes to the studio and listens to her tunes.
'That's because he 's so high he doesn't know what his name is,' joked the talk show host.
'We both are, we both are,' joked Miley who had earlier arrived at the studios sporting a pair of barely-there denim shorts and a black Tupac T-shirt.
Miley recently told Rolling Stone she believes alcohol is way more dangerous than marijuana.
After being asked if she's a stoner, she apparently laughed and replied: 'You can't ask someone that and expect them to say yes.'
'I did a song with Snoop Dogg called 'Ashtrays and Heartbreaks,' so people can put it together for themselves,' she said.
'I think alcohol is way more dangerous than marijuana - people can be mad at me for saying that, but I don't care,' she continued.
'I've seen a lot of people spiral down with alcohol, but I've never seen that happen with weed.'
Miley Cyrus seemed nruffled as she made her way to her  TV appearance despite her parents recently splitting up.
The 20-year-old singer smiled broadly as she made her way to the Los Angeles studios.

Miley was making an appearance on the popular talk show as part of her promotion for new single We Can't Stop.

She seemed to enjoy her performance on the TV show - the latest in a round of promotions for the track  which appears on her forthcoming fourth studio album.
Just 24 hours earlier, Miley had posted a cryptic tweet on her Twitter account which read: '@billyraycyrus since you won't reply to my texts I'm giving you an hour to tell the truth or ill tell it for you (sic)' and attached an image of her with an attractive woman.
The woman posing with Billy Ray was later revealed to be stage star Dylis Croman.
The attractive 30-something actress starred alongside Billy during his late 2012 run in Broadway show Chicago.

Heart on her sleeve: Miley has posted on Twitter her frustration with her father Billy Ray's lack of contact in recent days

Billy - who recently split from wife Tish again - was pictured posing with the actress in a photograph taken last November in New York at an afterparty following his debut in the hit musical.
Miley was seemingly frustrated with her father's lack of communication over the last few days, but it appears she quickly had a change of heart.
Around four minutes later, all evidence of the picture and message were removed, and a new tweet from Miley, 20, appeared claiming: 'Wtf? My twitter was just actin all types of cray!'
Her later tweet seems to conveniently suggest her Twitter account was hacked. But this isn't the first time that Miley has used the social networking site to berate father Billy Ray.

Show of support: Miley's mother Tish Cyrus arrived at the studios to watch her daughter perform

The day after her mother started divorce proceedings she tweeted: 'Since your texts and email obviously aren't working would you like to talk like this?' Her father didn't reply.
However, despite being taken down, the picture of Miley and Dylis and her accompanying message have certainly raised questions about what the singer is insinuating about her father and his former Broadway co-star.
MailOnline has contacted representatives for both Billy Ray and Dylis and awaits comment.
Billy Ray and Miley's mother are currently going through divorce proceedings again after Tish filed due to 'irreconcilable differences'.

Cryptic: Miley tweeted a picture of herself along with Dylis and gave her father an ultimatum to 'tell the truth or I'll tell it for you' before quickly deleting the post

Threatening: The message implies Billy Ray has a secret tell

Miley's mother set into motion legal action to end their marriage on June 13, but on Sunday afternoon the pair seemed to be rather loved up, despite neither wearing wedding rings on the day out with daughter Noah.

Three years ago, Billy Ray filed for divorce, though he later dropped it in an attempt to iron out their problems.
When Billy Ray filed the first time in 2010, he claimed Miley's fame had compromised their family, but there seems to be no hint of that this time round.

When they got back together a year later, Billy said: 'I’ve dropped the divorce. Things are the best they’ve ever been.
'I feel like I got my Miley back in a way. I feel like we are the daddy and daughter that we were before Hannah Montana happened.'
Meanwhile Miley's own relationship has faced continued scrutiny after she and fiancé Liam Hemsworth have rarely been seen together in recent months amid unconfirmed rumours their engagement was off.
However they showed a united front last week as they stepped out in public together for the first time in five months.
