Miley Cyrus Says She Has No ‘Desire' to Tour as ‘It's Really Hard to Maintain Sobriety' on the Road

Miley Cyrus is getting real about the drawbacks of touring, revealing on Good Morning America that she has no 'desire' to hit the road again any time soon. In the interview posted Tuesday (July 15), the pop star opened up about her decision not to promote her new album Something Beautiful with a run of shows. 'I do have the physical ability, and I have the opportunities to tour,' she explained on GMA. 'I wish I had the desire, but I don't. I also don't think that there's actually an infrastructure that supports artists.' More from Billboard Miley Cyrus Reacts to Full-Circle Hollywood Walk of Fame Star: 'This Moment Will Live Forever' Tomorrowland 2025 Mainstage Destroyed by Fire Ahead of Festival Alison Krauss & Union Station, Billy Strings Lead 2025 IBMA Bluegrass Music Awards Nominees 'The artists like Prince that are not here today that lived such a high-intensity lifestyle out on the road … It's really hard to maintain sobriety when you're on the road, which is a really important pillar of stability in my life,' she continued. 'It's really hard to keep mental wellness [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. You start thinking that one person loving you's not enough, it needs to be 10,000, it needs to be 80,000.' That said, Cyrus clarified that her decision to not tour has nothing to do with being 'afraid' of the challenge. 'I like to do things I'm afraid of,' she said. 'I've jumped out of airplanes. I've performed for 150,000 people.' 'I stood toe-to-toe with Beyoncé,' she continued, referencing her surprise performance of 'II Most Wanted' at a June Cowboy Carter Tour show in Paris. 'When you're standing beside her, you can actually feel her desire and her passion.' Indeed, not a lot of artists can say they've performed alongside Queen Bey, who first tapped Cyrus for Cowboy Carter duet 'II Most Wanted' in March 2024. The crowd went crazy when the Hannah Montana alum appeared on stage at Stade de France stadium and started singing with the night's headliner, with Bey giving her a hug and kiss on the cheek. 'That to me is a win,' Cyrus reflected on the performance. 'It's not a trophy, it's not something physical that you hold or put on a shelf, but it's something that I have that's a true win.' Despite how much fun she had singing with Beyoncé, Cyrus has been open about her aversion to scheduling a tour of her own. In 2023, she shared a statement with fans about not wanting to tour anymore, writing, 'This has nothing to do with a lack of appreciation for the fans & everything to do with I simply don't want to get ready in a locker room … I just don't want to sleep on a moving bus.' And in a May interview with Apple Music 1's Zane Lowe, she said that while she's sometimes tempted to make tour arrangements, she knows it's best for her sobriety and vocal health to abstain from road life. 'I've learned this about myself over the years,' she said at the time. 'The sobriety is like, that's like my God. I need it, I live for it. I mean that it's changed my entire life.'

Bankroll Ni Talks Music, Hustle, and Inspiration at the Urban 1 Summit

Source: Reach Media / Urban One If you don't know Bankroll Ni yet, you're about to. The multifaceted artist is quickly carving her space in the music scene with her unapologetic flair and unmatched hustle. During a candid interview at the Urban 1 Summit, she dropped gems about the grind behind her shine, giving fans a glimpse into the blood, sweat, and beats fueling her rise. Music wasn't always in the script for Bankroll Ni, who admitted that finding her sound was as much about self-discovery as it was about talent. 'I used to write rhymes in [insert personal anecdote about early songwriting location], but I never thought it would take me here,' she said, reflecting on her beginnings. Those early moments eventually led to [latest single], a track that's been buzzing across streaming platforms.

'I don't force it. If it doesn't feel right, it's not going on wax. Sometimes, it's just me and my headphones at 3 AM, vibing until it clicks,' she shared, emphasizing how she turns raw emotion into relatable anthems. Beyond the music, Bankroll Ni's story is one of resilience. Sharing a personal anecdote about overcoming challenges, she explained how it added fuel to her fire. 'When you've seen the bottom, you appreciate the come-up even more,' she said, dropping the kind of wisdom you'd expect from a seasoned vet rather than a rising artist. With her upcoming tour around the corner, she's set to raise the bar even higher. But for Bankroll Ni, it's not just about the limelight—it's about inspiring the next generation to chase dreams fearlessly. 'Don't sleep on yourself. Because the minute you wake up, it's game over,' she told us, leaving the kind of charge that sticks long after the music stops. LIKE US ON FACEBOOK . FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM & TWITTER .
