Miley Cyrus' 'open-minded' family

Los Angeles : Singer Miley Cyrus' family is very "open-minded", according to her father Billy Ray Cyrus.

Billy says he isn't worried about his 22-year-old daughter's sexuality, reports eonline.com.

“We've always been very open-minded. Listen, it's all about love and light. Forget the negativity and the haters,” Billy said ahead of his daughter's hosting duties at MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday.

“She's rocking and rolling and having a good time. What the world needs is love. There's too much hate ... The world needs positive influences.

“Even when she was a little girl, we told her, 'Hey, baby, do what you do and have fun doing it. Do it because you love it, not because you have to'. Seeing her happy is the greatest thing ever,” he added.
