Things between Miley Cyrus and Jared Leto are turning really sweltering hot. The two are reportedly in a stage where they call it "friends with benefits." But as their controversial arrangement become known to the public, Liam Hemsworth's ex fiancée and the former Joker seem to realize that their feelings for each other are more than just being casual hook-up.
People who label their relationship as "friends with benefits" are acquaintances who maintain sexual relationship without being emotionally involved. Typically, they are two good friends who have casual sexual romps without any kind of commitment -- and Cyrus and Leto are just like that. The "Wrecking Ball" singer is having a very casual but really steamy relationship with the "Suicide Squad," Celeb Dirty Laundry was told.
In the 2011 movie with Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake, it is shown that being "friend with benefits" is one of a fun sexual relationship between two people -- until one falls for the other. The friendship ruined and the people involved find themselves worse off than they were before.
However, this might not be the case with Cyrus and Leto. As Celeb Dirty Laundry noted, the two are considering a more traditional set up now that their secret is already out in the public. According to sources, the two genuinely like each other and consider one another more than just a repeat hookup.
"It's super casual but he is more than just a hook-up buddy. They genuinely care about each other," another source close to both Cyrus and Leto told Hollywood Life.
The word around town started in August, when Cyrus posted a picture of them together with a very telling caption: "When you're trying to hump Jared Leto but he is just innocently telling you a secret." Things then spiraled into a whole shocking level when it was revealed that the singer was actually sexting the actor when they are apart.
They constantly text each other and "send each other hot pictures too," the source revealed Hollywood Life. "Miley loves teasing him with sexy pictures of herself," the source added.
A related report from the Hollywood Life revealed that the two met up at a hotel in West Hollywood after their individual fund-raisers. Leto is 20 years older than Cyrus, but the singer reportedly did not see this as a problem. According to the source, "Miley knows Jared is seeing a lot of other women. But she's told friends she doesn't care."
