Miley Cyrus has opened up about her fallout with Sinead O’Connor
Miley Cyrus has admitted she regrets her major fallout with the late Irish singer Sinead O’Connor.
The pair fell out after O’Connor penned an open letter to Cyrus. She wrote the letter following the release of the Wrecking Ball music video in 2013.
O’Connor told the former Disney star that the music industry doesn’t care for her, for none of them.
“I am extremely concerned for you that those around you have led you to believe, or encouraged you in your own belief, that it is in any way “cool” to be naked and licking sledgehammers in your videos.
“They will prostitute you for all you are worth, and cleverly make you think it’s what YOU wanted … and when you end up in rehab as a result of being prostituted, “they” will be sunning themselves on their yachts in Antigua, which they bought by selling your body and you will find yourself very alone.”
Miley responded to the letter by posting tweets O’Connor shared about finding a psychologist.
She also compared her to Amanda Bynes, who was in rehab at the time.
Cyrus told the New York Times that her reply doesn’t reflect who she is now.
“I responded in a way that I would never as an adult, but that was also an adult talking to a young person.”
However, Cyrus stressed that she had a different experience with the music industry compared to O’Connor.
“I would say that feels like her experience being reflected on to me, but that’s not my experience. My experience was not that the music industry didn’t care about me.
“It’s really hard to train yourself to know what to expect, everything that fame can bring, but I already had the handbook because they did the same thing to my dad and to Dolly.”
