Miley Cyrus' medical condition that affects her voice and prevents touring
The Flowers singer has Reinke's edema, which results in a swelling of the vocal cords due to a build up of fluid.
Miley Cyrus has revealed she has a medical condition, which causes her voice to give off a raspy tone and says it prevents her from touring as much as she would like. The Flowers singer has Reinke's edema, which results in a swelling of the vocal cords due to a build up of fluid.
'It's a part of my unique anatomy,' Cyrus, 32, said, adding that she has a 'very large polyp,' which is an abnormal tissue growth, on her vocal chord.
'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,' Cyrus continued
The Party in the U.S.A. singer recognised that staying up late, drinking, smoking and partying after every show back when she was 21 did not 'help' her issues, but she clarified it did not 'cause it.'
'My voice always sounded like this,' Cyrus said, revealing that that sometimes when she is overtired, her mom points out to her that she sounds like she is 'talking through a radio.'
'It creates that, like, ultimate vocal fry, and so I do have this blessing of a condition that I live with,' she said, seemingly finding a silver lining. 'My voice is super unique because of it.'
Cyrus said that she is not willing to take surgical measures to 'sever' the polyp on her vocal chord because she does not want to risk the chance of not sounding like herself.
In the meantime, the Grammy winner, who is also known for her 2013 Bangers hit Wrecking Ball, said she is taking other avenues to avoid straining her vocal chords, like not putting on shows as often as perhaps her fans would like.
Cyrus added that in order for a global tour to happen, it would have to be done 'in a way that is sustainable' for her because she doesn't lip-sync, adding that live performance are 'taxing.'
If she doesn't do a certain amount of concerts, then it won't 'mathematically make sense' to do the tour because she'll be unable to pay the costs required for the crew and other expenses, she claimed.
The candid admission about her voice comes as has opened up about other recent health battles.
She also admitted she had a 'pretty traumatic experience' when performing on New Year's Eve because she had an ovarian cyst rupture.
Cyrus then shared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! that her 'leg began to disintegrate around the kneecap area' after she rolled around on the floor of the Hollywood Walk of Fame for one of her latest music videos.
She said, 'By November at Thanksgiving, I was put in the ICU for a moment — just for a moment.'

Pop singer Jessie J says she has been diagnosed with early breast cancer
The English pop singer Jessie J says she has been diagnosed with breast cancer and will undergo surgery after her performance at the London music festival Capital's Summertime Ball next weekend. Jessie J, 37, shared the news in an Instagram video on Wednesday. 'I was diagnosed with early breast cancer,' she said in the clip. ' Cancer sucks in any form, but I'm holding onto the word 'early'." 'It's a very dramatic way to get a boob job. I am going to disappear for a bit after Summertime Ball to have my surgery, and I will come back with massive (expletive) and more music.' The annual Summertime Ball will be held at Wembley Stadium on Sunday, June 15. She told her social media audience that she felt compelled to share her diagnosis. 'I just wanted to be open and share it,' she said. 'One, because, selfishly, I do not talk about it enough. I'm not processing it because I'm working so hard. I also know how much sharing in the past has helped me with other people giving me their love and support and also their own stories. I'm an open book. It breaks my heart that so many people are going through so much similar and worse – that's the bit that kills me.' The Grammy-nominated Jessie J has long been celebrated for her robust soprano and R&B-informed pop hits, like the 2014 collaboration with Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande, 'Bang Bang,' and 2011's 'Domino.' She has released five albums across her career, most recently, 2018's Christmas album, 'This Christmas Day.' She has been releasing new music in 2025, including the singles 'Living My Best Life' and 'No Secrets.' A new album is expected later this year. She has a son, Sky Safir Cornish Colman, born in 2023. A representative for Jessie J did not immediately respond to The Associated Press' request for comment.

Is Charli XCX married and who is her musician partner George Daniel?
Charli XCX is believed to be marrying The 1975 drummer George Daniel this summer after the pair got engaged in 2023. But who is her husband-to-be? Charli XCX is currently enjoying a golden period, having started 2025 with three Grammy and five BRIT Awards, as well as a string of hits from her sixth studio album, Brat. The hugely successful album has taken the music industry by storm. The singer, whose real name is Charlotte Emma Aitchison, is not only basking in the glory of her professional success but also has reason to celebrate in her personal life. She is reportedly set to marry The 1975 drummer George Daniel later in the summer. Charli has been in a relationship with the musician since 2022, and the couple got engaged in November 2023. The Boom Clap singer announced her engagement news on Instagram, flaunting her sparkling diamond ring in a post that has since been removed. Earlier this year, a report revealed several details about the couple's speculated Italian wedding, leading fans to believe that the singer may have already walked down the aisle or is very close to doing so. Who is Charli XCX's partner? Born in Brussels, Belgium in 1990, George was raised in Seattle in the US, with Fleetwood Mac being one of his early musical influences. George started playing the drums at school before heading off to college to study music production, reports the Mirror. The drummer of the 1975 has been a part of the pop rock band since 2002. Back then, they were an emo music group known as Drive Like I Do. George stepped in to replace the band's popular frontman Matty Healy on drums, while Taylor Swift's former flame was promoted to lead vocalist. Their relationship timeline Charli XCX and George reportedly first crossed paths at an awards ceremony back in 2019. They were spotted posing together for several photos, along with other attendees. Two years later, the musicians collaborated on the No Rome track Spinning, which was released in 2021. They teamed up again for Charli's 2022 album Crash and have continued to work together ever since. Charli XCX publicly confirmed her relationship with George in May 2022 and announced their engagement in November 2023. Since then, George has served as Charli's muse, inspiring songs on her chart-topping album Brat particularly her track Talk Talk. Fans also speculate that her songs Welcome to My Island (Remix) and Everything Is Romantic were influenced by the drummer. George teamed up with Charli for several hits on her Brat album, including 'In the City', 'Club Classics', and 'Apple'. Besides Brat, he's worked his magic on a raft of Charli XCX anthems, like the 'Welcome to My Island' remix of Caroline Polachek's song, as well as collaborations with No Rome and The 1975. He also produced 'Hot Girl' from the 'Bodies Bodies Bodies' soundtrack and multiple tracks on her record 'Crash'. Charli XCX opened up about George's impact on her music in a 2023 chinwag with The Sun. She divulged: "Now that I'm in a relationship with another musician, he's influenced me a lot with his process and how he and his band work. It's really different to how I work, and that has definitely influenced me and my process." Is there wedding bells for Charli XCX? Chatter among devotees suggesting the couple may have already walked down the aisle has been buzzing for some time, with the buzz growing louder by the day. While earlier reports claimed the two had secretly said 'I do' in Slovakia's Bratislava this past January 2024, fresh whispers told by The Sun now hint at an Italian do for the duo. A source divulged to the media outlet: "Charli and George both love Italy and it holds a special place in their hearts so they decided that's where they want to get married. They've found a venue that they think is perfect for their unique style of wedding, which won't exactly be traditional. The main aim is to have everyone they love come together and obviously there are plenty of people who are desperate for an invite." Stars such as Troye Sivan and Robyn, along with George's bandmate Matty Healy are among those anticipated to grace the upcoming nuptials. Regarding marriage, Charli has been quoted in the past: "Neither of us are particularly formal about marriage or care about the formalities of the ceremony or whatever. We just want to be together forever and have a party with our friends. That's what we're aiming for wedding-wise." While musical sensation Charli XCX may be blissfully entwined in a romantic chapter of her life, she indicates her passion for music seems to be waning. She hinted to The Sun that a new album might not be on the horizon anytime soon: "It's probably no music for a while... quite a while. I also want to act now. I'm already there and thinking about that stuff a little bit more."
