Singing better for voice than talking, says Miley Cyrus

Teen sensation Miley Cyrus believes that singing is better for voice than talking.

The 17-year-old star, who releases her new album 'Can't Be Tamed' on June 21, prefers to flex her vocal chords.

"Singing is actually better for your voice than talking - when you talk you use the lower part of your voice, when you sing you're using a different part of your voice and actually it doesn't hurt your voice as much," the Mirror quoted her as saying.

"It's actually better for me to not talk and sing or for me to write, so when I'm quiet, it's better in my room by myself and working on music," she added.
