Miley Cyrus performed sold-out shows at the Hollywood Bowl on Friday and Sunday in October 2026. After the Friday show, fans online criticized her for not singing all the words and letting the crowd sing Party in the USA. At the Sunday show she addressed the criticism and said she nearly ran away instead of taking the stage. She has said in interviews she is unsure whether she wants to keep performing. The discussion is about whether a performer should say that out loud to a paying audience.
