Miley Cyrus debuted the music video to her song 'Wrecking Ball' on Monday morning, offering fans a more vulnerable look at the singer.

The singer reveals all in the shocking new music video and once again, she has people talking by getting completely naked.

The 20-year-old strips off to ride a wrecking ball with provocative moves.

When she's wearing clothes, she's dressed in white — a look the singer has stayed true to for most of this album cycle.

The "Wrecking Ball" video is directed by controversial fashion photographer Terry Richardson, best known for boundary pushing editorials in glossy magazines.

Cyrus is seen emoting in a cinderblock diorama of sorts, stripping down and riding a not-very-clean looking wrecking ball.

Cyrus straddles a swinging wrecking ball, licks a sledgehammer and smashes up a few walls for good measure.

Cyrus posted a link to the video on Monday with the hashtag #WreckTheRecord.

Video has already scored 10.7 million glances.

After Miley Cyrus released her second music video off her upcoming album, Bangerz, fans took to Twitter to express their shock and awe over 'Wrecking Ball'.

@LukeConrad tweeted, “I’m all for expressing yourself, but sometimes you just gotta put a shirt on haha  @mileycyrus #WreckingBall #SledgeHammerLick.”
 
@kingsleyyy wrote, “Not sure if I just watched Miley Cyrus‘ video for Wrecking Ball or a risqué Home Depot commercial.”
 
@TheNickyParis tweeted, “LOVE Miley‘s new song & video “Wrecking Ball” & I even thought she looked HOT. But licking the hammer?
 
@LeLeValentine tweeted, “Miley Cyrus‘ new video has no correlation to the song?”
 
@chrissyteigen wrote, “Hey fyi did you guys know that miley cyrus is no longer hannah montana I wasn’t sure if u knew because of her subtlety and stuff”
 
Some fans loved her music beyond her risque performance:
 
 
@NASHOVERSTREET tweeted, “Just watched #WreckingBall & not that @MileyCyrus needs it, but that is a career song! Truly a great actress/artist.”
 
@cyruskstew wrote, “hmm, sledge hammers break things right? so it’s showing that even tho it’s breaking her, she still loves it (him).”
 
Wow! It sounds like Miley hit another home run with her Smilers!

Well, we have to hand it to Miley for once again being the centre of attention. Hate her or love her, she’s not going anywhere. The good news is, she can’t really get much more naked than this.
