BUT NOT IMPOSSIBLE –
July 17, 2025 – During an appearance on Good Morning America, Miley – who quit using marijuana in 2017 – explained: “It’s really hard to maintain sobriety when you’re on the road, which is kind of a pillar of stability in my life. None of this that I create would even be possible without the way I think about things.” Miley also thinks there’s an insufficient “infrastructure” for touring artists.
“I do have the physical ability. I have the opportunities to tour, but I wish I had the desire, but I don’t. I also don’t think that there’s an infrastructure that supports artists.”
Miley acknowledged that touring has negatively impacted her mental health in the past. The Wrecking Ball hitmaker said: “I do think it’s really hard to keep mental wellness.” In 2023, Miley admitted that touring “isn’t healthy” for her. The singer has enjoyed huge success in her music career, but Miley believes that touring “erases [her] humanity” and stifles her ability to write new songs.
