The Party In The USA singer further added, "I’ve had a hard time figuring out what the measurement is because if we want to talk stats and numbers, then where the f**k was I?

In the same interview, the 31-year-old singer also discussed her performance of her hit song Flowers at this year's Grammys. The singer shared that after spending two years alone during lockdown and then suddenly performing in front of millions of people at the Grammys, it was overwhelming. Miley Cyrus told the outlet, "I really wanted Flowers to be a celebration of ­bravery, because I perform out of fear."

She added, "I didn’t always have the fear of performing that I have now. But going from spending two years alone and seeing no more than one person a day during lockdown to knowing that millions of people watch the Grammys is a big shock to the nervous system."

Miley Cyrus won two Grammy awards for her song Flowers at the 2024 Grammys, including Best Pop Solo Performance and Record of the Year. It was her first time winning this prestigious award despite making back-to-back hit songs for almost 20 years.
