This is the time she started to channel Selena with studded bras and riskier fashion choices.
Fans will recall that she gyrated herself over Thicke while sticking her tongue out.
This look was a far cry from her “Hannah Montana” uniform.
In the beginning, it was kind of like saying, ‘[Screw] you.
Girls should be able to have this freedom or whatever.’

It combined her twangy vocals with Ronson’s hypnotic country-pop beats.
