Los Angeles - Miley Cyrus is throwing a £6 000 Christmas party for homeless people.
The 21-year-old star - who is known for her controversial on-stage antics, including scantily-clad twerking - is determined to show her "caring and sensitive" side by employing a chef to cook a three-course dinner for her guests and enlisting waiters and waitresses to wine and dine them.
A source said: "Most people only see the Miley who puts on a show. But she's really caring and sensitive and wants to make a difference to the lives of homeless people.
"She's putting a lot of effort into this party, there'll be waitresses to serve them. The whole thing will cost her around £6,000 but she feels that it's the least she can do."
The Wrecking Ball hitmaker - who is dating Patrick Schwarzenegger, 21 - is also set to put on some entertaining games for her guests and she is said to be planning to perform at the festive bash.
The singer is no stranger to helping out the homeless as in August she invited her pal Jesse Helt, who she became friends with after meeting at a homeless shelter in Los Angeles, to the MTV Video Music Awards in California and he even allowed him to accept her Video of the Year award on stage.
However, shortly afterwards it emerged there was an outstanding warrant for the 22-year-old aspiring model's arrest dating back to November 2011 and he turned himself over to police following the star-studded ceremony.
Jesse was jailed for six months in October for violating the terms of his probation following a court hearing in Oregon.
Following his August arrest, Miley insisted she was standing by him.
People who are homeless have lived very hard lives. Jesse included.

I hope that this can be the start of a national conversation about youth homelessness and how to end it.

Does looking down upon the homeless help people excuse their inaction?

The media never fails to disappoint. You've chosen to go after Jesse instead of covering the issue of youth homelessness :(
