According to a new lawsuit filed by EJ Hawkins and obtained by TMZ, Noah, 16, was driving a jeep with her mother Tish, 49, in the passenger seat when their vehicle hit his car on the 101 freeway in Los Angeles.

He claims he had to be taken to hospital and has suffered physical pain,"loss of love, affection, companionship, comfort, society and sexual relations," as a result.

Hawkins has included Tish in the lawsuit, for reportedly allowing her daughter to drive the car.

Meanwhile, earlier this year Noah revealed she is branching out into music, with the help of her singer father, Billy Ray Cyrus.

She said: "My dad always had me sing alongside him while he played guitar. He taught me how to harmonise to an old song of his, 'Missing You'. Writing is the best way to get your mind clear. It's also a great way to explain your past or what you hope for the future."

And Noah says her older sister is a huge inspiration, especially when it comes to fashion.

She said: "My sister Miley really inspires me because she's all about being herself. I try to be like that and dress how I want to dress."
