Miley Cyrus acting out at the Grammys saying that she only went there because Mariah Carey was going to present her with her award is so iconic
Miley Cyrus is officially a Grammy winner, but was more excited about sharing the stage with Mariah Carey during her acceptance speech.
Cyrus was in complete shock as she received her first Grammy award for the song “Flowers” after being nominated eight times in the past.
The best in music brought their fashion A-game to the 2024 Grammys. Industry icons and buzzy newcomers rocked the red carpet at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Sunday, February 4.
We’re talking billowing gowns, skin-baring frocks, eye-catching suits and out-of-this-world hair and glam. Footwear was also memorable, with fan-favorite stars strutting their stuff […]
“You have to stay right here!” Cyrus told Carey as she joined her on stage at Crypo.com Arena in Los Angeles.
“This MC is going to stand by this MC for this, because this is just too iconic.”
Cyrus continued to gush over Carey, who was the first presenter of the evening, as the pair stood side by side. “I just got stuck in the rain and thought I was going to miss this moment.
I could’ve missed the moment, that’s fine, but not Mariah Carey,” Cyrus continued. “I just saw you at the Hollywood Bowl, it was everything.”
Cyrus then turned her attention to the crowd, noting she felt good vibes after being sat in her “lucky No. 3 seat” at the awards show.
The musician then told a story about a little boy who asked his parents for a butterfly but instead received a butterfly net.
According to Cyrus, it wasn’t until the boy “finally let go” and “surrendered” his hopes of catching a butterfly that the creature “landed on his nose.” Cyrus explained, “This song ‘Flowers’ is my butterfly. Thank you.”
Close, but no cigar. Winning a Grammy Award is the pinnacle of many musicians’ careers.
While artists such as Beyoncé and Jay-Z have each won more than 20 Grammys over the years, doing so is easier said than done.
Minutes after accepting her award, Cyrus took the stage to sing “Flowers” in a sexy silver dress. During the performance, Cyrus told the crowd to start dancing.
She then ad-libbed one the lines, singing, “I didn’t want to leave you, but had to / I didn’t want to fight, but we did / Started to cry but then remembered I just won my first Grammy!”
The switch in lyrics prompted Taylor Swift and Kelsea Ballerini to throw their hands up in celebration.
Cyrus earned her first Grammys nomination in 2015 for Best Pop Vocal Album with her Bangerz record. In 2022, the singer received her second nod in the Album of the Year category as a featured artist and songwriter on Lil Nas X’s Montero.
In November 2023, Cyrus received six Grammy nominations for the 2024 award show: Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Pop Solo Performance, Best Pop Duo/Group Performance and Best Pop Vocal Album.
Several celebrities have turned the Grammy Awards into a family affair over the years. Beyoncé and Jay-Z attended the 2018 Grammys with their eldest daughter, Blue Ivy.
She sat alongside her famous parents in the front row and made headlines for encouraging the couple to stop clapping during the ceremony. (Beyoncé and Jay-Z are also […]
“Congratulations to all of this [year’s] Grammy nominees. Watching women win & rule the music industry makes me proud,” Cyrus wrote via Instagram after getting the news.
“It’s fun to be nominated & exciting to win but having my music be LOVED around the world is the real trophy.”
When Cyrus hit the red carpet on Sunday, she radiated from head to toe and looked like a real-life trophy.
The “Used to Be Young” singer donned a safety pin dress by Maison Margiela that was made of metal.
The custom creation included metal panties and showed off Cyrus’ toned physique. She finished off her look with the brand’s Tabi heels and a voluminous, ’70s-inspired hairstyle.
