Miley Cyrus Reveals She Suffered From an Ovarian Cyst Rupture During a Live Performance
'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, 32, said during a Wednesday, May 21, interview with Apple Music's Zane Lowe. 'I had a medical emergency. I had an ovarian cyst rupture."
An ovarian cyst rupture is when a fluid-filled sac on or inside an ovary bursts open and causes severe pain and bleeding inside the pelvis, per the Mayo Clinic. At the time, Cyrus "didn't know exactly what was going on," so she proceeded with the show. Cyrus hosted alongside godmother Dolly Parton and performed duets with Parton, Sia and Paris Hilton.
'It was pretty traumatic because it was extremely excruciating and I did the show anyway,' Cyrus recalled. 'But it was really, really hard on me.'
Miley Cyrus Details How Sobriety Journey Has Changed Her 'Entire Life' Over the Years
The health scare isn't the only challenge Cyrus overcame. During her chat with Lowe, 51, she shared the importance of maintaining her sobriety.
'I've learned this about myself over the years. The sobriety is like, that's like my God,' the singer said. 'I need it, I live for it. I mean that it's changed my entire life.'
Cyrus stopped using marijuana in 2017 and drinking alcohol in 2020. While speaking to 51-year-old Lowe, Cyrus recalled the last time they spoke back in November 2020.
'When you came to my psychedelic house that was painted black in hidden hills, where everything is like all white homes and equestrian. And then I painted mine black and rainbow … I no longer live there,' she said. 'But I was happy you came and saw me in that space. And I was thinking about it a lot today as I was on my way here, because I was so close to who's sitting here right now. But there was just life. It had more to teach me. It had more lessons.'
During their last chat, Cyrus confessed that she 'fell off' her sobriety journey at the time. However, Cyrus doesn't regret the mistake since it led her to where she is now.

'I know I needed to fall one more time. And I just, I had to. It just never would have happened this way. I just never would have been sitting here. And there were times in that section from where I've seen you before,' she said. 'And there were times in that section from where I've seen you last time and now that they hurt, I'm not proud of them. Definitely not my best moments, not some of my best work, any of that.'
Cyrus added that the struggle led her to write 'Flowers,' for which she won her first Grammy.
'It all led me to writing 'Flowers,' which then was some sort of just key right into the lock of all healing,' she said. 'It healed me so much.'

Bono Praises Oasis, Says Noel Gallagher Is ‘Shocked' at How ‘Great' Band Is Sounding Ahead of Reunion
A lot of Oasis fans are counting down the days until the band finally reunites, including Bono. While speaking to Apple Music 1's Zane Lowe in an interview posted Thursday (June 12), the U2 frontman had nothing but praise for the English pop-rock group, famously fronted by brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher. The band is currently in rehearsals ahead of a comeback tour slated to kick off in July, putting an end to a yearslong hiatus sparked by a feud between the two siblings. More from Billboard Liam Gallagher Gushes About Oasis Reunion Drummer Joey Waronker: 'This Guy Is Special' Don Was Remembers Brian Wilson's 'Mystical' Genius: 'He Explored Creative Territory Where No Musicians Had Gone Before' How LadyLand, the Scrappy Festival That Could, Is Shaping Queer Culture & Live Music In NYC 'I love them,' Bono said. 'I just love them. And what I really love is, the preciousness that had gotten [into] indie music, they just blew it out. There was just the swagger, and the sound of getting out of the ghetto, not glamorizing it.' 'They're both funny,' the singer added. 'I'm still very close with Noel, and he sent a message to me saying he's kind of shocked by how great the band is [sounding]. I think we're going to have a good summer.' The Gallagher bros will embark on their Oasis Live '25 Tour on July 4, beginning with a show at Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales. The rest of the trek will include stops in Europe, North America, Asia, Australia and Latin America. The performances will mark Oasis' first in about 16 years. Liam has also said recently that the group is playing better than ever as they prepare for liftoff, writing on X that a recent rehearsal 'sounded f–king FILTHY.' When they do return to the stage, the members of Oasis will have a big reputation to live up to. The band was one of the most influential groups in pop-rock in the '90s, with Bono adding on Apple Music 1, 'They had this rhythmic, beautiful quality to them … Manchester was very influenced by dance music, so they were groovier than anybody, they were rawer than anybody.'

Summary A$AP Rockyis set to release his new single 'pray4dagang' featuringKayCyy, a track from his highly anticipated upcoming albumDON'T BE DUMB, expected to drop later in 2025. The song as well as snippets of other unreleased tracks was originally previewed during Rocky'sAWGE Paris Fashion Week show, where it sparked major buzz.

'pray4dagang' sets the emotional tone for what fans can expect from his upcoming albumDON'T BE DUMB— a raw, introspective and sonically rich project that doesn't shy away from vulnerability.
