Miley Cyrus  listed her Top 5 fave female singers for Billboard, and she was thoughtful, fun, true to her roots and somewhat eclectic. 

The No. 1 spot on her list goes to none other than Dolly Parton not only because the country songstress is her godmother and her music was the soundtrack to her childhood, but because Dolly is a real-life Barbie.

The second spot goes to Joan Jett because she "represented a time when females weren't supposed to kick a--." No. 3 goes to none other than Lil Kim because Miley feels like she and the rapper are kindred spirits. Of course, if Kim made the list, the 'We Can't Stop' songstress felt obliged to include Nicki Minaj at No. 4. Finally, Cyrus names Beth Hart at No. 5 because home girl can seriously sing.

Just like Miley, her list was a little bit country, rock 'n' roll and hip-hop!
