‘Midnight Sky’ is Your Cue To Get Reacquainted with Miley Cyrus

Miley, Sobriety & A Bucket Load of Introspection

In a more recent interview, Miley Cyrus, delved into her struggles with substance abuse. While she’d been through quite a rough patch, in terms of her relationship with Liam Hemsworth, putting a halt on her marijuana use really helped clear her head.

“You just definitely want to feel like you are just in control of your own life and not trying to control anyone else’s. So for me to be able to really have a good, clear understanding of the last two years, which there was some traumatic experiences — losing the house in Malibu and going through a really public breakup — I think I just really needed some clarity. And so it was just really important to me to be able to like really sit with my thoughts,” she confessed. In fact, back in June, the young star even mentioned that she’d been sober for six months and that it had truly helped her “polish up” her craft.

Now, speaking of introspection, what better time to do it than when you’re stuck within four walls. The COVID-19 pandemic has at the least, allowed for some time to self-reflect. For Miley, a large portion of her time in quarantine was spent Marie Kondo-ing her house. “Things that belong to you, and things that don’t, and things that no longer serve you. And that was really, really healthy for me. And I don’t think I could have done that if my mom hadn’t smoked all my weed, and I didn’t have any left.”

During quarantine, Miley also launched a brand new online series titled, ‘Bright Minded’. It involved getting a number of artists and close friends on board, just to chat about life in lockdown, mental health and primarily for some good company.

Miley then went on to talk about the future – which mainly revolved (grudgingly) around her thoughts on marriage and having kids someday. “I never really cared that much. I am sure that my fans are going to pull up me at 12 saying, ‘Oh I want to have kids,’ but like I don’t, as a 27-year-old woman that would have a little bit more of a realistic idea of what they want. That has never been kind of my priority. For me I don’t just really think about marriage and things like this anymore… I follow a lot of feminists online and it’s kind of like, how many men do you ask if they are going to get married or have kids? I’m sure maybe you do want to buy into Jonas Brothers and things like that but I don’t think that many men feel the pressure to have kids and to get married.”
