The renowned "Flowers" vocalist, daughter of country luminary Billy Ray Cyrus and music manager Tish Cyrus, has announced her decision to abstain from embarking on tours once again.
Miley Cyrus candidly unveiled that the toll on her well-being and the formidable demands of touring have led her to this resolution. The challenges associated with performing on the road have become too formidable for her to endure.
Clarifying her standpoint, Cyrus explained, "Touring isn't solely about the duration of the show or the competition; it extends far beyond that. While the performance itself might span only 90 minutes, it engulfs your entire life."
She elaborated on the arduous nature of maintaining a certain level of intensity and excellence throughout the performance, emphasizing that an equitable measure of recovery and repose is paramount.
Since her 2014 Bangerz tour, which marked her last tour engagement, Cyrus has refrained from embarking on further tours.
Instead of traditional tours, the former "Hannah Montana" star expressed a preference for participating in music festivals and making appearances on television.
Cyrus delved into the psychological dynamics at play during tours, noting the often excessive role of ego, which can be challenging to temper once ignited.
"The act of being observed and scrutinized daily in the dynamic between myself and the audience takes a toll on my well-being," she remarked, highlighting the erosion of her personal identity and connection in such an environment.
She underscored the importance of maintaining her humanity and connection with her audience, as these aspects are pivotal to her songwriting, a vocation that holds paramount significance in her life.
Addressing her fans, Cyrus conveyed her deep appreciation for their steadfast support and their role in propelling her through the turbulent trajectory of her musical journey.
She wrote on her social media platforms, "To make it clear, my connection with my fans is stronger now than ever. Our victories are mutual." Despite the physical separation due to the absence of concerts, Cyrus affirmed that her fans' presence resonates profoundly within her.
Elaborating on her current stance, she highlighted her aversion to the transient lifestyle of tour buses, emphasizing that such a mode of existence doesn't align with her present needs and priorities.
The pop sensation signed off with a nod to the title of her latest album, "Endless Summer Vacation," alluding to her current phase of life and the pursuit of personal growth.
Recent days have seen the launch of Cyrus's new TikTok series, "Used To Be Young," where she delves into pivotal moments from her formative years that paved the way for her rise to stardom, as she navigates her 30s.
In the series' second installment, she explored her father's perspective on fame. Billy Ray Cyrus, the legendary country icon, shared his insights, shaped by his own childhood experiences, on his journey through the music industry.
Initiating the series with an introduction to her over 18 million TikTok followers, Cyrus reflected on her journey from her early days to her emergence as a global sensation. The caption read, "Though it often feels as though my life began with the advent of Hannah Montana, there existed a 'Miley' before her. My aspiration was to illuminate the world with laughter, music, and timeless moments. Decades later, driven by the love of my fans, I continue to fulfill that purpose."
Billy Ray Cyrus, a father of five, shares his children Miley, Braison, and Noah with his ex-wife Tish, and he adopted her children Brandi and Trace from a previous relationship. He also has a son, Christopher Cody, from another prior relationship of his own.
