These Illustrations Show Celebs Dressed Up as Miley For the VMAs

With Miley Cyrus set to star as the host of the 2015 MTV VMA award show, audiences are expecting the unexpected and these celebrity mashup illustrations cleverly pay tribute to Cyrus's unexpected style and behavior. The illustrations showcase various famous faces dressed up as Cyrus and superimposed into the songstress' VMAs promotional commercials.

The idea of having Cyrus host her own award show without any boundaries means that the show can really go in any direction, thanks to the pop star's outlandish character and outgoing personality. To promote the show, MTV release a series of images of Cyrus dressed up in crazy costumes. These illustrations cleverly swap in Miley's head for the face of other celebrities such as Hilary Clinton and Ryan Gosling. These Photoshopped images are hilarious and capture different celebrities in Cyrus' iconic style.
