Teen queen Miley Cyrus is courting more controversy following claims she is dating a 22-year-old back-up dancer.
Gossip blogger Perez Hilton reported Cyrus, 15, was dating a dancer called Marshall and the pair had been caught on camera flirting and kissing on the cheek.
At 22, Marshall is seven years older than the Hannah Montana star.
Further reports said paparazzi in America had posted a $150,000 bounty for the first photographs of Cyrus kissing.
"She's started to sell more," a photographer said.
"Now the pictures are going for a higher price. It used to be $300 for a shot, and now it's $2000 for a picture."
Cyrus has been caught up in several scandals recently after raunchy photos were posted online.
Controversy grew following a "topless" photo that appeared in Vanity Fair magazine.
Cyrus apologised for the photos and said she regretted having posed for them.
