Going their separate ways! Miley Cyrus has a ball in her Mercedes while fiance Liam Hemsworth looks sad at airport

They say puppy lovers find it hard to be separated.
But that did not seem to be the case for Miley Cyrus, who appeared to be having a ball as she sped around in her fancy Mercedes in Los Angeles today.
This was despite the fact the 19-year-old's fiance Liam was spotted looking forlorn as he jetted out of the city.

Party in the USA: Miley Cyrus took advantage of her fiance Liam Hemsworth's absence by taking her Mercedes for a spin in LA today

The Hannah Montana star did not appear to have a car in the world as she took her sporty Mercedes SLK for a spin around town.
Perhaps the singer and actress was enjoying having the chance to take her expensive vehicle for a ride.
Liam, 22, meanwhile was looking far more down in the dumps as he prepared to jet out from LAX earlier in the day.
The Hunger Games hunk was stoney faced as he made his way through the departure lounge, no doubt sad to be leaving his lady behind.

Liam's oldest brother Luke recently revealed how his whole family had been beguiled by the Party In The USA favourite.
He said: ' she’s great. She loves our kids, and our kids absolutely love her. She won our hearts.
'I find her really interesting. I find her very articulate, and years in maturity above her age. But at the same time, she’s very much like Liam.
'I think a lot of people don’t realize that they are really, really in love. They actually are a perfect match in a lot of ways.'

Could you actually wear any less? Miley Cyrus sports tiny shorts and a crop top as she marks Memorial Day

She's been working hard over the past few months to tone and hone her already slim figure.
So it's no wonder that Miley Cyrus just can't help showing off her slender physique.
Over the past few weeks, Miley has been seen wearing a variety of increasingly revealing outfits, culminating in a barely-there pair of lace shorts and a black crop top for Memorial Day yesterday.

Miley teamed her outfit with a pair of black biker-style boots, wearing her hair tied up in a bun on top of her head to keep cool.
She also accessorised the look with lashings of jewellery, including the lariat-style necklace she had worn to the Billboard Music Awards earlier this month.

And it certainly seemed as Miley was having a good time as she larked around with her beau and her mother.
In between hitting the shops, Miley was also seen joking around by climbing onto the back of an elephant statue outside the shopping centre.
She giggled as she pretended to ride the stone animal, before moving on to grab some lunch with Liam and Tish.

Earlier, Miley had treated her Twitter followers to a snap of herself enjoying the Bank Holiday, writing 'Such a lovely memorial day!' to accompany the shot of her reclining on a bench in the sunshine.
Miley has always been close to her family, and spoke recently about how mother Tish helped her through her break-up from Nick Jonas.
She told Dutch magazine Bravo: 'The first time I ever got broken-up with I thought my world was going to end, I was going to die right there and I couldn't keep breathing and go on. I was on tour and I could not get myself to go up on stage and smile and pretend like everything was OK.
'I would lay in bed feeling sick and so sad and my mum would hold me and tell me, "It's all good," and scratch my back until I fell asleep. And not waking up alone, waking up with my mum there, that is a time I will never forget.'
