US EditionGrammy-Winning Singer Still Insecure over Past Body-Shaming; Wears ‘Grandma’ Bathing Suits
- Miley Cyrus discussed on Monica Lewinsky's podcast on June 9 and 10, 2025, how body-shaming memes from her 2013 MTV VMA performance still affect her self-image.
- The memes stemmed from her 2013 MTV VMA performance where she danced provocatively alongside Robin Thicke, wearing a nude-toned bra and panties, which resulted in online body-shaming and digitally altered images targeting her appearance.
- Cyrus revealed she remains insecure about those memes, leading her to prefer modest swimwear like shorts and tankinis instead of string bikinis worn by others.
- At the time of the podcast, Cyrus, age 32, was promoting her album Something Beautiful and was seen recently in New York City wearing a sheer dress despite her insecurities.
- Her statements illustrate how early public scrutiny continues to affect her personal confidence, even though she embraces revealing fashion on stage and public events.
