Miley Cyrus skipped VMAs after party to record with kanye west

How's this for an odd couple? Miley Cyrus
and Kanye West** are teaming up to make
new music together and have already hit the
studio to work on a few upcoming tracks, a
source confirms to Us Weekly . In fact, the
insider tells Us, the two skipped all the post-
MTV Video Music Awards festivities in New
York City to lay down a remix of West's "Black
Skinhead." (Page Six was first to report the
collaboration.)
"He was in a creative mood," the source says
of the impromptu late-night recording
session. "You know 'Ye: He does everything
last minute and just decided to capture their
energy and record right after the show. They
decided that night."
The source notes that in addition to Cyrus'
"Black Skinhead" verse, the pair "messed
around with other tracks," some of which
may appear on the 20-year-old pop star's
new record. (The Disney alum announced
earlier this month that her fourth album,
Bangerz, would be released on Oct. 4.)
Cyrus' collaboration with the rapper and new
dad (to daughter North, 2 months, with Kim
Kardashian) came hot on the heels of another
headline-making musical merger hours earlier
-- between the "We Can't Stop" singer and
"Blurred Lines" chart-topper Robin Thicke **.
The two were the talk of the town after their
raunchy performance at the VMAs on Sunday,
Aug. 25.
"Miley's team is freaking about that
performance," one insider told Us of the
spectacle, which featured the former Hannah
Montana star twerking with giant teddy bears,
grinding against Thicke, and making obscene
gestures with a foam finger. "They saw the
rehearsals, but those were really played
down compared to the live performance."
Countered another source: "It's the VMAs --
of course she's going to do a standout
performance! No one [from her team] was
shocked by this."
In related news, Quartz reports that Oxford
Dictionaries Online has included "twerk" in its
latest update of words and phrases. The ODO
defines it as "a dance to popular music in a
sexually provocative manner involving
thrusting hip movements and a low, squatting
stance." In other words: Cyrus' performance
at the VMAs. Twerk it!
