Miley Cyrus has a message for those questioning her commitment to the stage.

Fresh from her emotional Hollywood Bowl comeback and Dolly Parton tribute, the Pop powerhouse found herself facing criticism over her first major concert in four years.

And during the second night of her sold-out engagement on October 18, the 33-year-old didn’t hold back when addressing the commentary. She also made a candid admission about the challenges of returning to performing.

Full story below…

Following her October 16 show, some online critics accused Cyrus of not giving her all, pointing to moments when she allowed the audience to sing portions of hits such as ‘Flowers’ and ‘Party in the U.S.A.’

Addressing the chatter during Sunday’s concert, Miley dismissed what she described as “clickbait” commentary questioning her dedication.

“I’ve never heard that I don’t put my heart into something.”

However, the Grammy winner acknowledged that being onstage isn’t quite as effortless as it once was.

“It is hard for me to stand up here and do this show. It does not come as natural as it once did.”

The ‘Wrecking Ball’ belter also revealed that she had nearly talked herself out of taking the stage for the second show.

“Before I came out for ‘Orbit,’ I already told myself I wasn’t going to come on stage, I was going to run away.”

Ultimately, her bond with the audience won out. Cyrus insisted that she would never leave concertgoers unfulfilled, declaring that she was “fully present.”

She even poked fun at the criticism mid-performance, quipping:

“Oh, I forgot I’m supposed to sing every f**king line!”

The moment is particularly notable given Miley’s previous comments about stepping away from traditional touring and exploring residencies as a way to perform on her own terms.

Her two-night Hollywood Bowl engagement may be over, but the conversation about what comes next is far from finished.
