Miley Cyrus Reveals New Medical Condition Halting Tour Plans

Miley Cyrus has revealed another shock medical condition she suffers with that stops her from touring.

The Flowers singer, 32,  who recently admitted she ended up in the ICU,  credits her signature raspy voice to a ‘very large polyp’, an abnormal growth of tissue, on her vocal cord.

She said on Apple Music’s The Zane Lowe Show: ‘It’s a part of my unique anatomy.

‘[It’s] given me a lot of the tone and texture that has made me who I am, but it’s extremely difficult to perform with because it’s like running a marathon with ankle weights on.’

Dubbing her tone the ‘ultimate vocal fry’ she added that her popstar lifestyle of ‘staying up late, drinking, smoking and partying’ when she was 21 did not ‘help’ her voice, but did not ’cause it.

‘I do have this blessing of a condition that I live with. My voice is super unique because of it.’

Cyrus said she is scared to get surgery on her polyp as she risks ‘not sounding like herself’ although it makes performing much harder. 

Adding that live shows are ‘taxing’, she said any proposed tour would have to be ‘sustainable’ for her as she does not lip-sync. 

Elsewhere in the chat she revealed she hid a ‘extremely excruciating’ medical emergency from her fans while recording a New Year’s Eve special. 

The three-time Grammy winner opened up in detail about a harrowing health scare as 2022 turned into 2023.

The Franklin, Tennessee native had been working with her godmother Dolly Parton on her TV special Miley’s New Year’s Eve Party when an ovarian cyst ruptured. 

The End of the World singer said she ‘had a pretty traumatic experience on a show that I was doing with’ SNL creator Lorne Michaels. 

Miley said, ‘I had a medical emergency – I had an ovarian cyst rupture – we didn’t know exactly what was going on so we did it.’

‘[It’s] given me a lot of the tone and texture that has made me who I am, but it’s extremely difficult to perform with because it’s like running a marathon with ankle weights on’ 

Miley said that she stuck to the credo that the show must go on, despite severe physical symptoms that likely would have sidelined other performers.

‘It was pretty traumatic because it was extremely excruciating and I did the show anyway,’ Cyrus said on the music-focused chat show.

The Slide Away songstress emphasized that taking the stage with the ailment ‘was really really hard on’ her.

She also revealed she ended up in the ICU over Thanksgiving after contracting a brutal infection that left her leg ‘disintegrating’ – even making a seasoned surgeon gag.

The pop star opened up about her harrowing experience on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Thursday. 

She details the bizarre cause of the injury: rolling around on the grimy Hollywood Walk of Fame while shooting a music video for her visual album Something Beautiful in October.

‘I caught something,’ she told Kimmel. ‘My leg began to disintegrate… around the kneecap area. And then the doctor goes, ‘Do you have any idea why you would have such a brutal infection on your kneecap?”

Cyrus mimed rolling on the sidewalk as she explained how she had to come clean about the source. 

‘I had to tell him,’ she said. ‘To have a surgeon look at you and say, ‘Yuck…’ They open up cadavers. They see inside the guts of humans, and they’re looking at me, telling me I’m disgusting. And they do brain operations!’

‘Have you been to the Walk of Fame in the middle of the night?’ she asked Kimmel, before joking, ‘I thought it was my last day.’

While she’s fully recovered, it’s safe to say Miley won’t be filming on Hollywood Boulevard again anytime soon.
