Doppelgänger: Miley Cyrus parodied Justin Bieber for a skit on comedy show Saturday Night Live


She's certainly no stranger to controversy, but that didn't stop Miley Cyrus from poking fun at a host of other celebrities currently dominating the headlines.

The former Disney queen hosted famed comedy sketch show Saturday Night Live last night, and drew laughs as she parodied troubled actress Lindsay Lohan, as well as her good friend Justin Bieber.

Miley appeared dressed as fellow teen idol Justin Bieber in one sketch. She wore a purple hoodie jumper and a wig of the singer's famous haircut.


Playing for laughs: but Miley proved she can laugh at herself, taking part in the skit that also poked fun at herself (centre) and father Billy Ray Cyrus


The 18-year-old proved that she can also laugh at herself though, with the skit set in one of the show's regular segments, 'The Miley Cyrus Show.'

Saturday Night Live (SNL) cast member Vanessa Bayer regular spoofs the Hannah Montana star with an exaggerated take on Miley's nasal, southern accent and with a fondness for the words 'like' and 'y'all.'

Miss Cyrus told reporters after the taping that she had watched several TV interviews of Bieber to mimic his crotch-grabbing and confident swagger for the show.


Headline makers: The sketch involved a Charlie Sheen talkshow called 'Winners! Duh!' and showed 'Charlie' and 'Lindsay' talking about fake urine samples


The Party In The USA singer played it cool as Bayer made fun of her as a parody of herself.

An over-excited fake Miley asked the singer, playing Bieber: 'Justin Bieber, I want to ask you some things. Like, what is your favourite album, and what is Canada like, and do you speak Canadian, and does Usher have to seat people at his own concert because he's an Usher, and do you really never say never, and have you gone through puberty?'

Fake Justin replied: 'All I have to say that is, uh, wink,' winking and smiling at the camera.


Winners circle: John Galliano and Moammar Gadhafi were also parodied in the sketch


Real deal: Miley made fun of Lindsay Lohan's recent court appearances


Miley also sent up Lindsay Lohan in a scene that also parodied Charlie Sheen, John Galliano and Moammar Gadhafi.

The sketch was a Sheen-hosted talk show named 'Duh! Winning!', a reference to the actor's recent interview and Twitter rants.

Bill hader playing Sheen, invited other current 'winners' on to the show, with Cyrus appearing as Lohan alongside castmembers Fred Armisen as Gadhafi and Taran Killam as Galliano.


Friends: The star is good friends with Justin Bieber in real life, but said she watched his TV appearances to copy his movements


Miley donned a long blonde wig to parody Mean Girls star Lohan, who is currently facing a grand theft charge.

Asked by 'Sheen' how she was doing, she replied: 'Things are great, my new movie Herbie opened 68 months ago, and Los Angeles court house just gave me my own parking spot. Winning! Duh!'

Hader then produced one of the 'show's sponsors,' a replacement urine sample company, telling the audience: 'I have a drug test coming up.'

Cyrus reached for the sample, asking: 'Can I get some of that?'


Comedy: Miley also dressed up as one of the Von Trapp children


The singer and actress also played one of the Sound of Music's von Trapp children, giving advice from the 'Disney Channel Acting School'.

She also played a jealous French girlfriend in a skit called Les Jeunes de Paris, and poked fun at fellow Disney star Vanessa Hudgen's new film Beastly.

Miley also sang a song called Sorry, I'm Not Perfect during the show, referencing some of her and others' headline-making antics.

The lyrics included: 'There’s a photo of me being kissed by some dude and Annie Leibovitz trying to get me nude.


Controversy: The singer is stretching her comedic chops as she tries to shed her party girl reputation


'For those of you who think that’s very crude, I’m sorry that I’m not perfect.'
'I never stole a necklace or got a DUI. Never cheated on my wife like that golfer guy.

'So what you can see a little boob from the side? I’m sorry I’m not perfect,' she sang.

SNL cast member Kristen Wiig added: 'You didn’t make a dirty tape and pass it along. You didn’t text a photo of your dong.'

'Don’t both of these things seem worse than a bong?' Miley asked, a reference to the video of her smoking a salvia bong.
