She's never been one to hold back when it comes to topics she's passionate about, and Miley Cyrus voiced her positions on numerous issues for the March 2012 issue of Glamour.
Definitely upset after Prop 8 was struck down in California, the 20-year-old "LOL: Laughing Out Loud" actress - who was spotted shopping at Bed, Bath & Beyond today (February 7) - offered up a passionate defense for same-sex marriage in the magazine while also talking about the rights of Americans and her boycott of Urban Outfitters.
Highlights from Miley's interview are as follows. For more, be sure to pay a visit to Glamour!

On her boycott of Urban Outfitters:
“One day I read online about the head of Urban Outfitters donating to a presidential candidate who does not support equality for everyone. I was shocked and disappointed that a company with such diversity would exclude such a large group of people. I can no longer bring myself to shop there.”
On her father, Billy Rae Cyrus’ beliefs:
“We all should be tolerant of one another and embrace our differences. My dad [country singer Billy Rae Cyrus], who is a real man’s man, lives on the farm and is as Southern and straight as they come. He loves my gay friends and even supports same-sex marriage. If my father can do it, anyone can.”
On the rights of Americans:
