NEED TO KNOW
Don’t get your hopes up, Miley Cyrus stans! The Grammy-winning singer won’t be going on tour anytime soon.
In an interview with Good Morning America that aired on Tuesday, July 15, the star revealed why she has no “desire” tour her latest album Something Beautiful.
“I do have the physical ability and I have the opportunity to tour. I wish I had the desire but I don’t,” Cyrus, 32, said.
The “Flowers” singer then said that she believes there isn’t a proper “infrastructure that supports artists.”
“There’s artists like Prince that are not here today that lived such a high intensity lifestyle on the road,” she said. “It’s really hard to maintain sobriety on the road, which is a really important pillar of stability in my life.”
For Cyrus, it’s important to maintain her “mental wellness” — and that can be difficult to balance while on tour.
“You have so many thousands of people screaming at you so dopamine — you’re feeling a lot of love — and then you totally crash at the end of the show,” she said. “You start thinking that one person loving you is not enough. It needs to be 10,000 it needs to be 80,000.”

The “Malibu” singer’s last major run was the Bangerz Tour in 2014. Still, she has much to look forward to, including being recently named as part of the Hollywood Walk of Fame class of 2026.
“Honored to be receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. When I first came to LA from Nashville as a little girl, my family would stay at a hotel on Hollywood Blvd, and I would go on late night walks with my dad when no one would recognize him,” she wrote, alongside a clip of the music video to her newly released song “Walk of Fame” on Instagram.
“We’d have the gift shops to ourselves & buy knock off Oscars and Marilyn Monroe merchandise. To now be cemented on this legendary boulevard, surrounded by the icons who inspired me, feels like a dream.”
She concluded, “This moment will live forever, thank you to everyone in my life who made it possible. I am grateful to share this star with you.”
Cyrus released her ninth studio album, Something Beautiful, on May 30. The album was accompanied by a complete visual film that premiered on June 6 at the Tribeca Festival.
While on Jimmy Kimmel Live in May, the “Slide Away” singer explained that the film “has no story” and is instead focused on the music.
“The music is the story. Every song is storytelling,” she said. “Even though this has become very kind of psychedelic and over the top [like] everything that I do, but at the end of it, really the heart of it is just the music. Really, the storytelling. So there was no need for characterization because I’m the character. And I never want to become something or someone that I’m not.”
