London, March 20 (IANS) 'Hanna Montana' star Miley Cyrus was welcomed by boyfriend Liam Hemsworth's family. He revealed his parents 'loved' his girlfriend.

'Yeah, they loved her. It was really cool to show Miley where I'm from and how I grew up, and it's a completely different world to where she's from. We don't have shopping centres or traffic lights or anything like that, where I live at least,' dailystar.co.uk quoted him as saying.

'It was awesome, I really like Australia. You know what? The media's really cool there, too. Even though there's paparazzi, they kind of stay their distance; it was kind of like Nashville by the sea actually, the town he's from,' Cyrus said.
