Opening the song with some moves that can only be termed 'Vagina Guitar' (we'll let your imagination fill this picture in), Miley quickly got twerking in a bear leotard, sans pants of course.

As Miley got down to what she was there to do (ie sing), she spent some more time stirring up controversy by patting some curvaceous buttocks (not her own) and more general twerking and genital patting.

Moving through the overly sexualised performance, Cyrus, 20, cavorted around the stage, barely putting her tongue in her mouth long enough to sing.

As the number drew to a close, Miley ditched the bear leotard as the strains of Robin Thicke's 'Blurred Lines' kicked in.

Under the bear bodysuit was a yellow latex bikini, which Cyrus paraded model-style across the stage. She also gained a giant basketball-esque pointer hand glove which she proceeded to repeatedly touch her self with.

Before long, Cyrus was at it again, inverting herself on the stage to grind crotch-to-crotch with Thicke. And not just once, in case you missed it, but repeatedly.

Both Cyrus and Thicke's music videos drew controversy this year for their respective overt sexualisation of songs that didn't warrant the over-the-top nature (Cyrus made out with a doll and rolled around in underwear A LOT while Thicke had topless models frolicking through his video).
