Miley Cyrus has opened up about a terrifying health scare.
The “Flowers” singer, 32, appeared on “The Zane Lowe Show” this week and revealed that she suffered an ovarian cyst rupture when she co-hosted a New Year’s Eve special with Dolly Parton to ring in 2023.
“I had a pretty traumatic experience on a show that I was doing with Lorne [Michaels] when I was doing my New Year’s show,” Cyrus recalled.
“I had a medical emergency. I had an ovarian cyst rupture, which we didn’t know exactly what was going on, but it was pretty traumatic, cause it was extremely excruciating.”
But Cyrus said that she “did show anyway” even though “it was really, really hard on me.”
The Disney Channel alum and her famous godmother, 79, hosted NBC’s “Miley’s New Year’s Eve Party” which featured guests Sia, David Byrne and Paris Hilton, as well as several “Saturday Night Live” stars. Lorne Michaels was one of the executive producers.
Cyrus told Zane Lowe that after the health incident, she had an important conversation with Michaels, 80, about her career.
“I had dinner with Lorne and he said something that now has stuck with me,” Miley shared. “He goes, ‘Six months—everybody has six months to feel sorry for themselves and then we start to rebuild.'”
“And it was Christmas by then and that was New Year’s, so I was expired on my amount of time that I was able to shut down,” she continued. “He’s like, ‘You have no idea how many artists have sat in this chair and told me that they were quitting music. Everyone does this. Everyone has these traumatic experiences.'”
“What I’ve always realized is that it will quit me before I ever quit it,” Cyrus added of her career. “That’s not in the cards for me.”
Cyrus is releasing her latest album, “Something Beautiful,” on May 30.
She explained on “The Zane Lowe Show” why she wanted the project to be in theaters for her fans.
“I wanted to have that experience for my fans, so that’s why I really wanted to have something where you don’t just, like, lay in your bed and say, ‘We’re gonna put that Miley thing on, I’m gonna kind of pay attention,'” she explained.
Cyrus also said that her new album, which will be accompanied by a musical film set to be released at the Tribeca Film Festival on June 6, involved “performing in intimate places that are filled with beauty … you can’t find in a stadium.”
