Miley Cyrus has spoken out against her one-time "favourite" band, Radiohead. In an interview with a Portland radio station reprinted by Pitchfork, the teen star vented her anger at the band for snubbing her at this year's Grammy Awards.

The singer, who claims Radiohead are "the reason I love music", was less than amused when the band turned down an invitation to meet her backstage at the Los Angeles event last month.

Apparently, when she extended the invitation to meet the band, Radiohead's team told Cyrus's people that "the band doesn't really do that."

"The reason I'm in this business is to make people happy," she said, implying that Radiohead aren't. She added, "I left 'cause I was so upset. I wasn't going to watch. Stinkin' Radiohead! I'm gonna ruin them, I'm going to tell everyone."

I swear to god....i was going to leave her alone and let her do her thing, but seriously why would a band like that want to be pestered by this untalented little girl. Hes clearly more concerned about global warming, and to be fair, anything is more interesting than Miley 'i cant even write my own songs' Cyrus! EPIC FAIL!

Ok, she needs to understand that she is hannah montana and Radiohead cannot be seen with this wannabe rockstar. Good Choice by Thom and the boys

Oh dear what a knobhead. If I was Radiohead, I wouldn't want to meet her and why should they just because she asked them?

She's gonna ruin them!? who the fuck does she think she is!? The only thing she can ruin is the sliver of credibility she once had for being Billy Ray Cyrus' daughter, Im sure its unbearably difficult to be 16 and post suggestive pictures of yourself on the internet while your target audience is 10 year olds, but bring on the empty threats, bitch!!! but not before you've finished that maths homework.

She's just a teenage brat who for once didn't get what she pointed at, and now she whines about it. And it really isn't a surprise Radiohead didn't show up. Why the hell would they?

haha she really is pathetic. Im not a radiohead fan but I am glad they told her where to go!

Music was never about making people 'happy.' Music was about expressing yourself. Using a medium as a guiding light for people to look inward. If I were Radiohead, I would be ashamed Miley Cyrus listened to us as well. Miley is in the business for the wrong reasons, not Radiohead. How juvenile does saying 'stinkin radiohead' sound? No one is going to listen to Miley Cyrus anyways. She is going to ruin no one.

this is the reason Radiohead never played the grammy's before. Kanye, Robert Smith and now Miley can fuck off and cry about it together while listening to Creep.

The biggest and best band in the world turned down an invitation to meet Hannah Banana?Truly shocking.

Why would one of the world's most influential and respected musical forces of the last 20 years want to meet Radiohead?

What a cuntmop Miley Cyrus really is. At least her dad fucked off after he outstayed is achy breaky welcome. Why cant she piss off into the realms of fuckdom.

Annie Lennox once walked past me four years ago and didn't fall at my feet. I am coming to terms with this and I am sure you will too. Miley, if you knew anything about the band beyond their music, you couldn't really call yourself surprised. As for 'turned down invitation' - that sounds painfully precious. GO AWAY.

I somehow don't think Miley's threats sound very serious. I think she's just venting. You know how it is when sixteen-year-olds have their hearts set on something and then don't get it. Dissing Kanye, sure, that I can understand, but Miley's just a kid. Granted, a vapid, loud, entitled kid who travels everywhere with a huge pose that would probably have been removed surgically from the green room, but still!
