Miley Cyrus sure knows how to self-promote. The "We Can't Stop" singer has promised that with Twitter milestones, more information about her new album will be unveiled. First, it was the 13 million followers, which gave fans her record's name ("BANGERZ"). Then, Cyrus promised that if "#votemiley" trended to get "We Can't Stop" a VMA for Favorite Summer song, she would do a fan Q&A about her new album.
Last night, #votemiley trended worldwide. Though Cyrus is a lot of things: a twerker, a lewd photo subject and the former Hannah Montana, she is not a liar. So, today (Aug. 15), Cyrus held a short #AskMiley session.
But, what did we learn from the conversation between the pop star and her fans? Here are five new things we know about "BANGERZ."
1. Miley will be collaborating with Future, French Montana, Nelly and More!
Cyrus answered that the best thing about "BANGERZ" will be all the collaborations she's working on. It seems as though the album will be hip-hop heavy, with guest spots from the above-mentioned artist. Cyrus was also spotted in the studio with Nicki Minaj, so a collaboration between the two twerkers is highly likely.

2. "BANGERZ" will likely have 13 tracks.
When asked, point blank, how many songs the new album will have on it, Cyrus answered "13 is my lucky number #goagainstallodds." The final "BANGERZ" track count depends on bonus tracks and if anything is added or scrapped, but 13 is the luckiest number, some may say...
3. Miley helped to write on the album.
But she noted that she collaborated with songwriters Planet6 ("We Can't Stop," Beyonce's "Bow Down"), Stacy Barthe (Katy Perry, "Hummingbird Heartbeat") and Sam Hook.
4. It was never anything but "BANGERZ."
The capitalized, Z-ized album title came to Cyrus when she was eight songs in to the writing/recording process. and she never had any other title ideas. "I had no preconceived ideas w/ this record," she wrote.
5. There's no way you're getting any other song titles... yet.
When asked if she can reveal any other information about the album or any other song titles, Cyrus remained silent, simply @ replying to the question askers.
