Our June cover star Miley Cyrus werks a twerk like no other Hollywood star. The complex dance move is a fluid squat-cum-booty-pop that requires plenty of quad strength and coordination. We marvelled at Mileys skills on our ELLE cover shoot but it appears rapper Jay-Z is a fan of the singers moves, too.
In the song Somewhereinamerica from his new album Magna Carta Holy Grail, Beyoncés man raps:
Might crash ya Internet
And I ain't even into that
When I was talking Instagram
Last thing you wanted was your picture snapped
Feds still lurking
They see I'm still putting work in
Cause somewhere in America
Miley Cyrus is still twerkin'
With a little chuckle, he continues to encourage Miley, rapping:
Twerk, twerk, twerk, twerk
Twerk, Miley, Miley, twerk
Twerk, Twerk, Miley, Miley, Miley, twerk
Twerk, yeah, ugh-huh
Twerk, Miley, Miley, Miley
Only in America.
Miley responded to Mr. Carters encouragement with a tweet saying Somewhere in America a Jay Z song is onnnnnn [sic]'. The tweet references her own hit single, Party In The U.S.A., which famously featured the line And the Jay-Z song was on.
Miley recently collaborated with Snoop Dogg, could there possibly be a duet in the pipeline with Jay-Z now, too?
