Miley Cyrus reveals that her infamous VMAs performance led to body shaming and long-lasting insecurities.
Miley Cyrus is working to bring some light to her fans during the dark times of the coronavirus outbreak with a Monday to Friday Instagram live stream called “Bright Minded.” But in Tuesday’s episode, where she chatted with fellow child-star Demi Lovato, Cyrus revisited darker times in her career while opening up about struggling with body image issues.
Cyrus’s performance at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2013 became one of her best-known as she sang and danced in a fuzzy bodysuit and a set of latex underwear alongside Robin Thicke. At the time, she seemed carefree, but she admitted that the response was hurtful. Aside from playing a role in determining what she was comfortable wearing, Cyrus said that the negativity also left her conflicted about who she really was versus who she was portraying for her fans and the media.
Lovato, who has long been open about struggling with body image issues and eating disorders, said that wearing multiple pairs of tights was something she did too. Both women agreed that the shame they felt from the industry itself is what brought them to do “bigger” things.
