DHAKA: Canadian-American R&B pop singer Robin Thicke says that he is happy with all the attention that he has been getting from the raunchy performance with fellow pop singer Miley Cyrus at the recent MTV music awards.

The 36-year-old behind No. 1 hit song Blurred Lines would rather sell more records than have credibility, which he says is subjective.

He was speaking to the press before a performance at the MTV World Stage Live in Malaysia concert in Selangor on Sunday.

‘Miley and I knew exactly what we were doing at the awards, and it’s the MTV Awards, you know, it’s the place of shock and awe, a place to provoke,’ he says, reports The Straits Times.

‘For me, I’m just happy to be getting all this attention because it gives me a chance for people to hear my music. And when I die, the only thing that will matter to me is the music that I left behind, not some performance on MTV that everyone will forget.’
