Miley Cyrus has named a number of people as her inspiration in her acting and singing careers, but at this year's Grammy Awards, Miley revealed she has a new influence - Nicole 'Snooki' Polizzi of the Jersey Shore!

Miley revealed this during a red carpet interview with Access Hollywood, who Snooki's housemate on Jersey Shore, DJ Pauly D, was guest corresponding for.

"I want to be Snooki," Miley said. "I love her.  I'm obsessed, I follow her around."

Although Miley has spent quite some time in the public eye herself, that doesn't stop her from becoming star struck around her new favorite celeb!

"[Snooki's] one of the only people I've asked for an autograph and a picture from because I love her and I'm inspired by her!" Miley added.

While at first the sound of Miley looking up to someone like Snooki may seem a little far fetched, with the known party-girl character Snooki brings to Jersey Shore and Miley's recent partying encounters, the match up really isn't too far fetched.

Although Miley may love watching Snooki on television, it doesn't seem like Ms. Cyrus will have any time to venture out to New Jersey any time soon to spend some real time with her latest inspiration.  Miley just wrapped up filming another movie and announced recently that she wants to go on tour and see her fans more later in 2011!

Do you think Snooki is a good inspiration for Miley Cyrus!?
