London, Sep 2 (IANS) American actress and pop singer Miley Cyrus’ ex-boyfriend actor Liam Hemsworth was reportedly using the singer-actress to boost his career, according to a new report.

‘He’d brag to pals that dating Miley was making his career hotter. Everyone was kind of suspicious of him – except Miley,’ said a source.

Cyrus and Hemsworth parted ways last month.

According to recent reports, Hemsworth had hooked up with a blonde named Katy, who he is said to have met him at the Shorebreak Hotel in Huntington Beach, California, Aug 7.

‘She and a girlfriend approached him at the bar. Girls were fawning over him all night, and he was clearly loving the attention, but he really took a liking to her,’ said a source.

‘They were all throwing back beers and having a great time. Later, he suggested that they all go back to the Doubletree hotel, where they were staying, to keep the party going.

‘Miley’s name was never brought up. He certainly didn’t mention her,’ the source added.
