HANNAH MONTANA IS OFFICIALLY DEAD! MILEY CYRUS IS MORE LIKE BABY BRITNEY!

Hannah Montana may not be extinct yet, but Miley Cyrus is doing everything she can to kill her Disney alter ego dead.

In the music video for her new album's title track, "Can't Be Tamed," which premiered Tuesday, Cyrus presents herself as a scantily clad extinct species.

Writhing in a large nest within a giant birdcage, the 17-year-old pop star, wearing S&M-style gear, looks provocatively at the camera complaining that she feels like a specimen.

She proceeds to engage in some raunchy pole dancing, her plunging body-hugging black bodice, complete with expansive bird wings (the curator in the video says she is a member of the extinct species Avian Cyrus), leaving little to the imagination.

"If you're going to be my man, understand, I can't be tamed," Cyrus sings as she prowls the stage and gets intimate with her male dancers. "I'm a puzzle but all my pieces are jagged."

The song's licks and the video's style are reminiscent of Britney Spears' "Womanizer," though the blonde pop star was almost a decade older than Cyrus when she appeared in it.

With her new video, Cyrus appears to be thumbing her nose at critics who claim she is not acting her age. Cyrus was criticized last year for dancing on a stripper pole at the Teen Choice Awards. More recently she came under fire for performing a duet with Bret Michaels in which the 46-year-old star asked her to shed her clothes.

But Cyrus has denied that her new music video is meant to push the boundaries of age-inappropriate sauciness.

"The video isn't about being sexy or about who can wear less clothes," she told eonline.com. "I don't want to be in a cage. I want to be free and do what I love."

It may not be about couture, but one scene has the star rolling around in peacock feathers while donning a $25,000 corset designed by The Blonds.

"Can't be Tamed," will drop June 22.
