It’s not surprising Marc Jacobs would tap the most-talked about celeb right now for his spring ads – Miley Cyrus has been a long time friend of his, as well as a supporter of the brand (see her go nude for his Protect the Skin You’re In t-shirt campaign here). But while the designer gushed about the 21-year-old to Women’s Wear Daily, he also revealed that not everyone was excited to work with the singer. Check out the behind the scenes scoop from Marc Jacobs below.

- On his love for the singer: “We all just love her and her entire being, her talent, her intelligence, everything. There’s nothing I don’t like about her. She is just genuine and very natural.”
- On the set design: “We wanted this beach with the girls kind of sulky and broody, and we thought it would be cool if it was Miley with what could be two friends, feeling distant and quite dark.”
- On using David Sims instead of in-house photog Juergen Teller: “I have worked with Juergen for years and love him as an artist. He just didn’t want to shoot her.”
