Miley Cyrus discussed her collaboration with Beyoncé and performing at the Grammys in a new interview.
“Her mom, Ms. Tina, my mom is also an M.T.: Mama Tish,” Cyrus said. “A lot of people call her Mom, in the way that Ms. Tina is almost not just a mother to Beyoncé, but to Beyoncé’s fans as well. Both of us grew up, in our own way, with moms who were everything. My mom was my makeup, hair, seamstress, styling, tour manager—like, the actual manager. The word ‘mother’ is the most all-encompassing word. The mother can be RuPaul; the mother can be Beyoncé. Our fans call us ‘mother.
The singer recalled performing with Beyoncé as a teenager at a Stand Up to Cancer benefit. “I was sandwiched between Beyoncé and Rihanna, who were, you know, five feet ten inches and in heels,” she said. “Their hips were, like, up to my shoulders. They were these powerful, fully realized, grown women, and I’m pretty sure I had braces on the back of my teeth. They were protective of me.
She added, “That Christmas, Beyoncé sent me a House of Deréon jacket that said Miley on the back in gold studs, which is my favorite, and some jeans with my name on it. In one of my songs, “’Cattitude,’ I say, ‘And for my 16th birthday, I got Deréon from the house of the queen.'”and Best Pop Solo Performance, earning Cyrus her first Grammy Award. She told W that it felt like the first time the music industry really took her seriously.
She added of her look during the performance, “I wrote on this dream board that I wanted to show up to the Grammys with a childlike confidence, like when a kid isn’t scared to just dive into the deep end or do a backflip because they don’t know what’s on the other side. My 12-year-old self got to come out and play, while my 31-year-old self was in Bob Mackie with big hair.
