Miley Cyrus Reveals Why She Isn't Going on Tour Anytime Soon

Miley Cyrus may have dropped another album, but she's still on an endless summer vacation.
The Hannah Montana alum, who hasn't paired an album with live shows since her 2014 Bangerz Tour, recently detailed why she no longer considers globetrotting a necessary part of her career—and it has nothing to do with Reinke's edema, the vocal condition she lives with.
'I do have the physical ability,' she clarified during a July 15 Good Morning America segment. 'I have the opportunities to tour, I wish I had the desire, but I don't. I also don't think that there's an infrastructure that supports artists.'
Miley, 32, went on to cite Prince—who was constantly on the road—as a reason for why she doesn't think touring is in the cards for her.
'It's really hard to maintain sobriety when you're on the road,' she explained, '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.'

As for her past experience touring, Miley admitted, 'I do think it's really hard to keep mental wellness.'
Of course, this isn't the first time The Last Song star has given insight to why she doesn't perform live as much as she used to, saying her old habits exacerbated her Reinke's edema, which she described as 'abuse of the vocal cords.'
'Being 21,' she told Apple Music's Zane Lowe in May, 'and staying up and drinking and smoking and partying after every show does not help.'
But considering Miley's past as one of the faces of Disney, none of her fans will be surprised that she prefers to take it easy these days.
'I worked really hard as a child,' Miley recalled to W magazine last year. "I didn't go to prom. I didn't go to dances. I didn't have so much of that social experience or time for friends. Disney, they were doing very well off of the amount of work that I was putting in as a child. I don't have any bad feelings about that. It's just the truth.'
And for the 'End of the World' singer, touring is not an essential way to keep the connection with her fans alive.
'For clarity I feel connected to my fans NOW more than ever,' Miley wrote in a 2023 tweet in response to backlash about her not touring. 'When I win we win. Even if I don't see them face to face every night at a concert, my fans are felt deeply in my heart."
As she put it, 'I'm constantly creating and innovating new ways that I can stay connected to the audience I love—without sacrificing my own essentials."

Marvel's 'Fantastic Four: First Steps' opens to $118 million domestically

What superhero fatigue? Twice in one month, a comic book film has rocketed to the top of the box office, debuting with more than $100 million in ticket sales. Two weeks ago, it was "Superman," the first theatrical release from James Gunn and Peter Safran as co-heads of DC Studios at Warner Bros. Discovery. This weekend, Disney and Marvel's "Fantastic Four: First Steps" fueled an estimated $118 million in ticket sales during its first three days in theaters. "The lesson is that if you build great movies, audiences will head to the multiplex," said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst at Comscore. Internationally, "Fantastic Four: First Steps" snared an estimated $100 million, bringing its global weekend haul to $218 million. "Marvel bet big releasing their long-awaited introduction of the Fantastic Four as the last MCU film to hit theaters for at least another year, and it's paying off," said Shawn Robbins, director of analytics at Fandango and founder of Box Office Theory. "The franchise has had its share of hiccups in recent years, but Marvel's First Family is winning over fans and spurring the kind of enthusiasm that could bring back casual viewers who sat out some post-'Endgame' chapters." Marvel has struggled in the wake of the record-breaking "Avengers: Endgame," the culmination of more than a decade of interconnected storytelling. While films like "Deadpool & Wolverine" and "Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 3" enticed moviegoers to theaters, others like "Captain America: Brave New World," "The Marvels" and "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania" failed to drum up the same enthusiasm. Box office hauls haven't been the only hit-or-miss for the studio. Marvel films have experienced significant fluctuations since the release of 2019's "Endgame." Previously, no MCU film had a Rotten Tomatoes score below 67%, meaning each had earned the title of "Fresh," indicating that critics had a generally positive view of the film. Since then, five films from the franchise have been below that metric and three of those were considered "Rotten," earning less than 50% positive reviews. This year, "Captain America: Brave New World" tallied $413 million globally and earned a 48% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. But "Thunderbolts*" generated just $382 million globally — one of only five titles under the Marvel Cinematic Universe banner to tally less than $400 million worldwide — it secured an 88% "Fresh" rating. Its newest theatrical entry, "Fantastic Four: First Steps," also has an 88% "Fresh" rating from the site. "For Disney, this has truly been a magical summer and for Marvel a reaffirmation that their strategy to revamp the brand is certainly working," Dergarabedian said. "With 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' following in the footsteps of 'Thunderbolts*' Marvel is showing that a focus on quality rather than quantity is a recipe for success."

Marvel returns to form as ‘Fantastic Four' soars to $118 million at the box office

It was clobberin' time this weekend, as Marvel's 'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' nabbed the top spot at the box office with a performance that returned the Walt Disney Co.-owned superhero franchise to form. The movie hauled in $118 million in the U.S. and Canada and grossed $218 globally in its opening weekend. The film, which stars Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach and Joseph Quinn, is just the latest remake of the comic book property, though the first under Walt Disney Co.'s ownership. Formerly owned by 21st Century Fox, 'The Fantastic Four' is one of several key intellectual properties now under the umbrella of the House of Mouse after its $71.3 billion acquisition of that studio's entertainment assets in 2019. Disney has already capitalized on its ownership of the 'Deadpool' and 'X-Men' properties — its 2024 film, 'Deadpool & Wolverine,' garnered more than $1 billion in global box office revenue. Fox produced and released three 'Fantastic Four' movies, none of which were well-received by audiences or critics. A 2015 reboot was particularly reviled. Quality was not an issue this time. The movie notched a 88% approval rating on aggregator Rotten Tomatoes and an 'A-' grade from audience polling firm CinemaScore. The movie exceeded pre-release estimates. 'First Steps' was expected to gross $100 million to $110 million in its debut weekend, on a reported budget of about $200 million. The theatrical reception for 'The Fantastic Four' is a relief for Disney and Marvel, which has struggled in recent years to reap the box office earnings it once did with its superhero films. The Anthony Mackie-led 'Captain America: Brave New World' received middling reviews from critics and brought in about $415 million in global box office revenue. Ensemble movie 'Thunderbolts*' received strong reviews, but made only $382 million worldwide. Disney Chief Executive Bob Iger said earlier this year that the company 'lost a little focus' in its zeal to produce more shows and movies for the Disney+ streaming platform, acknowledging that 'quantity does not necessarily beget quality.' 'By consolidating a bit and having Marvel focus much more on their films, we believe it will result in better quality,' he said during an earnings call with analysts in May. Anticipation was high for 'The Fantastic Four,' and Disney went all out with the marketing. The company hired a skywriter to craft encircled 4's in the sky near downtown Los Angeles on the day of the premiere and featured a drone show outside the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion after the showing. 'While Marvel films have settled into a fairly predictable core audience after multiple under-cooked films and streaming series in the post-'Avengers: Endgame' era, the brand remains sturdy when the right film comes along,' Shawn Robbins, director of movie analytics at Fandango and founder of site Box Office Theory, wrote in a weekend theatrical forecast published Wednesday. Warner Bros.' DC Studios' 'Superman' came in second at the box office this weekend with a domestic total of $24.9 million for a worldwide gross so far of $503 million.

Robot Tries to Bust Dance Moves, Flames Out in Epic Disaster

Braving the dance floor in broad daylight — or even just when the overhead lights are on — frequently does not end well. Your clumsy moves, weird facial expressions, or catastrophic blunders will likely be captured by someone with their phone out, who will then quickly deliver the footage to potentially millions of eyeballs online. On that note, we now report that a robot has eaten dirt after trying to show off some of some dashing choreography — and seemingly had its soul sucked out of its corporeal form in sheer embarrassment. If androids dream of one day becoming Gene Kelly, this one just had those ambitions shattered. The dance floor tragedy was captured in a video that recently went viral on social media, though its original source is unclear. Thankfully, it's a robot, so we don't have to feel bad for laughing at it — because, reader, you will laugh. Note our doomed reveler's oversized clothes and its wide-brimmed hat. The hat was seemingly the robot's mojo; when it falls off, the robot suddenly stops dancing, takes a few hesitating steps like a dazed cartoon character that got walloped over the dome, and boom: ass meets floor. It can happen to anyone. But then the mechanical humanoid then goes completely haywire and starts flailing like a roach flopped on its belly that's also being electrocuted, freaking everyone out in the process. The onlookers gasp. One kid recoils in terror. And of course, laughter eventually emerges. This was one robot that couldn't take failure. "It's feeling real human pain. Unimaginable pain," wrote one commentator. "He'll have the rest of his life to grapple with this," replied another. "It's hell." The robot appears to be a G1 model built by the Chinese robotics company Unitree. They've become popular little companions, at least as far as $16,000 consumer robots go, and are the subject of a growing wave of humorous stunts filmed for social media. They charm with their diminutive, four-foot stature, and impressively human-like gait, and can be pre-programmed to perform whatever wacky stuff you imagine. Earlier this year, Unitree started playing up the G1's dancing prowess after releasing an update that improved their ability to keep moving — and keep their balance — even when interrupted. This was demonstrated in a video shared by the company in which a human rudely keeps whacking a G1 with a broomstick. Unitree also showed that the bot was capable of whipping out kung fu moves. They may be capably agile, a few momentary interruptions of balance notwithstanding; everyone fails. But clearly, the bots have a long way to go in the composure department: another video that recently went viral showed a Unitree G1 suddenly start thrashing so violently that it causes the crane that it's suspended from to crash to the floor.
