Miley Cyrus says she has not paid attention to any of the reactions to her wildly controversial VMAs performance. âIâve seen this play out so many times,â she tells MTV in a newly released interview conducted a few days after the show. âHow many times have we seen this play out in pop music?â Many times, Miley. Many, many times. Cyrus says she was participating in the VMAsâ legacy of attention-grabbing performances, citing Madonna and Britney Spears, and that sheâs glad people are still abuzz. âWhatâs amazing is I think now, weâre three days later and people are still talking about it. Theyâre overthinking it,â she says. âYouâre thinking about it more than I thought about it when I did it. Like, I didnât even think about it âcause thatâs just me.â Well, that should put these discussions to rest.
