Miley Cyrus Shows Off Her Bikini Body In The Bahamas - Pictures

Miley Cyrus shows off her enviable bikini body as she frolics on a beach in the Bahamas.

Dressed in a black and pink two-piece, the Disney poppet laughs and jokes around with her brother Braison and sister Noah, before her group don their life-jackets for a banana boat ride around Paradise Island.

Meanwhile, the Hannah Montana star has taken to her personal Twitter page to hit back at critics of her weight, insisting she is just a "normal girl."

She writes: "Talk all you want. I have my flaws. I'm a normal girl (sic) theres things about my body I would change but stop with calling me f*t in post. I dont even like the word. Those remarks that you hateful people use are fighting words. The ones that scar people and cause them to do damage to themselves or others.

"People that are so okay with being so hateful disgust me and need to spend last time on a gossip website and more time a. reading your bible b. reading stories/articles about what happens when cyber abuse and name calling happens. Kids hurt themselves."

And the 16-year-old is hopeful her healthy figure can help others feel confident about their body.

She adds, "This is not something to be taken lightly. I know these "message boards" are "no big deal" to YOU but (it) is to the victim. This has got to stop!!! Oh and ps if your thighs don't jiggle go see a doctor. Thanks."
