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."

Women Are Sharing The Biggest Mistakes Men Make When Showing Interest, And One In Particular Was Repeated A Lot
Anyone who's been on dating apps knows that some people seem to have no idea how to talk to a potential match. So when u/fiterphanter asked, "Women, what is the biggest mistake men make when showing interest?" women chimed in with tons of suggestions. Here are some of the most-upvoted and most-repeated ones: 1. "Don't go overboard on the talking about sex... be able to talk about other things." —aurora_ethereallight "Like my Warhammer collection?" —Pissedtuna "Honestly, yes. One of my college friends had one, and none of us did, but it was endearing how much he was into it and fun to see him light up about painting little figures that took hours to dry." —firefly0827 Related: 2. "Lying that you like the same things we do." —Fluid-Vacation-3172 "I had quite a few guys do this in the past. It always sucked because here I am falling for them, thinking we have so much in common. Then, after a while in the relationship, they start to get comfortable and now don't want to go anywhere we used to go or do anything we used to do because, 'Well, I don't actually like that band; I just liked you.' Like that's supposed to be OK, I'm just supposed to accept this life now? What a waste of time for both people." —Eshlau 3. "Making sexist comments. A lot of guys think variations of the comment, 'Most women are so dumb, but you're so smart!' is a compliment. It's not. Especially if you're complimenting me for knowing something basic. It suggests you don't engage many women in conversation." —mauvebirdie 4. "Making sexual innuendos to test boundaries when I don't know you." —Medusa17251 5. "Talking constant smack about their ex. Comparing us to their ex. Like if it comes up in conversation, say what you need to say and move on. Don't punish us for what your ex did, bro. Heal up. Also, bragging about how many other women are interested in you, how ✨lucky✨ I am to have been at the top of the list." —Salt_Specialist_3206 6. "Making it about looks, in a way that makes it obvious they're not really looking past that. You can usually tell because they're not complimenting your personality, taking interest in your hobbies, etc. It's just, 'You're so pretty,' 'Your body is so hot.' It can actually feel quite sad." —highuptop 7. "I remember when I first met my wife, we had an amazing date that lasted way longer than expected. A couple hours later she texted me asking if she'd scared me off. I was super interested, but didn't want to seem too interested, and she straightened me up real quick! Don't try to play it cool by not communicating." —SgtGo Related: 8. "Not asking any questions and actually keeping the conversation going. Ridiculously basic but shocking how many men don't understand this, including the ones that show strong interest." —ChemistryMean3876 "It's not just about showing interest; it's about making someone feel seen and heard. Asking questions, remembering little details, and being present... that's where the real foundation of trust and intimacy is built." —SpacedGeek 9. "Showing extreme jealousy over a girl you aren't even dating. My best friend had a small birthday party, and there were mostly people I knew, and some I didn't. A guy came up and told me I was very pretty and he liked my outfit. I said thank you and continued to see my friend. I started playing pool with her brother, and I looked up to see that same guy fuming and staring daggers at me. Bro, I don't know you? Why TF are you grilling me like that? It came off seriously unhinged because he did it the whole party every time I socialized with any of the guys." —Glittering-Relief402 10. "Not understanding the constraints that women face around safety. I was listening to a man talk about how frustrated he was that he wanted to pick up a first date in his car, and she wanted to meet him at the restaurant. It's because she doesn't want to be trapped with you if you end up wanting to hurt her. She wants to have an escape. Some guys literally try to murder their dates. Dating can be very scary/dark for women." —koolaid-girl-40 11. "Making it sexual. I can't emphasize this enough. If you make it sexual before we meet, I'm immediately disappointed. Most of my experience post-divorce is dating online, and I cringe every time a guy has 'I love to cuddle' on his profile. Or we start talking, and within a paragraph, he's asking to give me a massage. Just talk to women like we're people, not sexual objects. Adding onto this that I am very sexual and in no way avoid sex. But if I don't know you, I don't want to talk sex with you. Period." —darksideofthesuburbs Related: 12. "Acting like being nice is a personality, then getting mad when you don't fall for them immediately." —That_Purple288 "Or worse, a tactic. 'Here are some flowers and I held the door and said your grandma's hat looked nice. What, you don't feel a spark? F*** your grandma, that old b****!'" —Hot-Prize217 13. "I think a lot of men would do well to remember that they can easily overpower us, and we are always aware of that. So, fear is often present, and for good reason. Giving a woman some time to get to know you, and to see that you will be safe for her, is crucial for many women." —Mountain_Jury_8335 "A small sample survey was done of women. They were asked to describe qualities of their 'best boyfriends.' The responses were then put into a keyword bubble graph, where the more a word was used, the bigger it was. 'Safe' was one of the biggest words. Pretty eye-opening for me as a dude." —Wessssss21 14. "Trauma dumping on the first date." —everlylennonn 15. "I've noticed a lot of men try to 'sell' themselves — make a big deal about their accomplishments, basically finding any reason to brag or bring up nice or helpful things they've done for others, etc. Trying to impress their date. But in reality, it just makes you look a bit narcissistic. It's off-putting. Let your personality show for itself! If a woman is on a date with you (especially if it's your second+ date), she has some interest in you already; you don't have to force it." —bingocatswithhats 16. "Never disagreeing with me. It's suspicious and it's a red flag that you're not being honest." —LizardPossum Related: 17. "I don't want a show, I don't want bravado. I'm not a damsel in distress; I don't need to be fixed. Accept me for who I am, and don't try to change me to fit your narrative. Be genuine, listen. Your efforts do not have to be grand, maybe you heard her say that her favorite color is X and you'll bring her something that color." —DreadPriratesBooty 18. "I hear/ see a lot of guys think dating is some sort of formula or game. They think if they check boxes like having a job or being in shape, then women will automatically be interested. And that if they 'say the right things' or make them seem a certain type of way, that will result in a relationship/sex/attention. In reality, that's manipulation. Women want to date someone they have an actual connection with. Not someone who just says what they think women want to hear." —shaylaa30 19. "Not the 'biggest' mistake, but if he won't let me pay for my own coffee or meal on the first date, there will not be a second. I don't like feeling like I 'owe' people things, and I don't like it when a guy is more interested in Correctly Performing Manliness than he is in listening to a simple 'no thank you.'" —ThatInAHat "This so much. Basic human politeness (taking no for an answer, etc.) > Chivalry." —Mundane_Caramel60 20. "Faking a friendship. So many men treat friendships with women as stepping stones for a sexual/romantic relationship, and it's gross for two reasons: It shows that they value us only in those terms, and it shows a very deep-rooted dishonesty. If you want to pursue something sexual, say it, and if the woman isn't interested in that and you aren't interested in a genuine friendship, move the f*** along." —eleanorlikesvodka 21. "Pretending you want a relationship when you just want sex. Be honest. Sometimes that is all women want, too, and you're more likely to: a.) Find the women who want the same faster... And TBH, sometimes FWB will be more likely because it still needs to be based on respect and attraction to last, even when casual. b.) Stop wasting EVERYONE'S time by revealing that, after leading someone turning them off by going overtly sexual and thinking that will work." —and12345go 22. "Making weird jokes too soon. Could a serial killer joke be funny after we've been dating and watched the documentary together? Sure. Is it funny on the first date when you're driving me somewhere in the dark on our first date? F*** no." —yellowjacket1996 Do you have any more to add? If so, use the anonymous form below, or just let us know in the comments!

CBS canceling Colbert begs the question: Are more late night shows next?
There are two schools of thought around CBS' decision to end "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert." The first says the cancellation is a one-off exit from the storied time slot — that Paramount was trying to push through the red tape to finally merge with Skydance Media, a deal that was approved by the Federal Communications Commission Thursday after more than a year in limbo. The other says it signals the beginning of the end of late night TV. The entertainment industry will have a better sense of where the truth lies next year when Disney decides the fate of Jimmy Kimmel's late night show, "Jimmy Kimmel Live." While NBC recently extended the contracts of its two late night hosts, Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers, into 2028, Kimmel's contract is set to lapse in 2026. "Jimmy Kimmel Live" has been a late night staple since 2003, acting not only as a typical talk show on the circuit, but as a valuable marketing hub for Disney's slate of theatrical and television content. In addition to traditional one-on-one interviews, Kimmel will also frequently host several stars from the same project, often for blockbuster titles from Marvel, Star Wars and the company's animated franchises. Clips from these chats are fed onto Kimmel's YouTube channel, which has more than 20 million subscribers, and across social media, helping to generate buzz for upcoming Disney projects. For comparison, Fallon's show account has around 32 million subscribers, while Colbert's stands at 10 million and Meyers' at just over 5 million. Kimmel is also a frequent host of the Academy Awards, which airs on Disney's ABC, and is currently the host of ABC's celebrity edition of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire." These ancillary assignments, as well as his annual job closing out Disney's Upfronts presentation for advertisers, may make Kimmel more important to Disney's long-term future than Colbert was for Paramount or CBS. Still, while the next test of media's commitment to late night is months off, the end of "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" is calling attention to the mounting pressures on traditional TV and raising questions about the whether the time slot can survive the evolving viewing landscape. The cost of producing late night programs has risen as the media industry has been upended by streaming and shifting consumer habits. The traditional pay TV bundle has lost millions of customers in recent years, and as they've disappeared, so too have advertising dollars. The shifting equation has forced media companies to rebalance. At a large scale, companies like Comcast's NBCUniversal and Warner Bros. Discovery have opted to split off their cable TV networks into separate corporate entities. At the programming level, big shows are increasingly greenlit for release on streaming services rather than traditional networks. Salaries of highly paid news anchors have moderated, with some stepping away from traditional networks entirely and starting out their own ventures. And much of the money spent on bulking up both linear TV networks and streaming services is earmarked for live sports. That leaves familiar titles in flux. "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" employed around 200 people and recorded annual losses of around $40 million, according to a person familiar with the matter, who declined to be named speaking about nonpublic matters. "Jimmy Kimmel Live" employs around 250 people and loses roughly the same amount, according to a person familiar with that show's finances. While the pay-TV bundle still rakes in the highest share of profits for legacy media companies – much of which stems from the fees that pay-TV distributors hand over to the networks to be included in the bundle – that figure is in decline. Linear TV advertising revenue has also been on a steady downward slope. Industry analysts and experts expected the ad market to stabilize in 2025 after tumultuous streaming-centric years, but macroeconomic uncertainty has hampered the recovery. In quarterly earnings that were reported in May, Paramount, NBCUniversal and Disney each reported lower ad sales on a year-over-year basis. Paramount reported in May that its first-quarter TV advertising revenue was down 21% to $2.04 billion, mainly due to comparisons to the prior-year period when the company had the Super Bowl. That championship beckons the most ad dollars of any live event on TV. Without the Super Bowl, ad revenue would have been flat, the company said. Overall revenue for Paramount's TV segment was down 13%. Of the traditional TV ad spend that does remain, the biggest share has gravitated to live sports, which draw the biggest audiences. NBCUniversal recently touted its record ad sales volume during the most recent Upfront cycle due to an upcoming slate of NBA, the Super Bowl, Winter Olympics and other sports. Disney reported in May that quarterly revenue for its domestic linear networks was down 3% to $2.2 billion, attributing the decline to lower ad revenue. Still, Disney noted ad revenue for ESPN and sports in general saw an increase in ad revenue. These headwinds help legitimize Paramount's decision to cancel "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert," but the timing of the program's end has raised suspicions. The announcement that Colbert's show would take its final bow in May 2026 came just days after the tenured host publicly called out Paramount for its $16 million settlement with President Donald Trump over the editing of a "60 Minutes" interview with former Vice President Kamala Harris. Colbert called the settlement a "big fat bribe" during one of his show-opening monologues, referencing the then-pending merger between Paramount and Skydance Media, which required the approval of the Trump administration to proceed. Paramount and CBS executives released a statement last week saying the cancellation was "purely a financial decision against the challenging backdrop in late night." "It is not related in any way to the show's performance, content or other matters happening at Paramount," the company continued. While ratings for Colbert's show have declined over the last decade, the program has consistently achieved the highest views of any show in the 11:35 p.m. hour, outdrawing ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" and NBC's "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon," according to Nielsen. Still, Colbert's ratings have been declining each season. For the most recent September-to-May time period, Colbert averaged roughly 1.9 million viewers, with the majority of viewership coming in the age demographic of over 65, according to Nielsen — a telling data point about the state of TV viewership. Kimmel's viewership paints a similar picture, with viewership dropping from the September-to-May time period in 2019-2020 to the most recent in 2024-2025, when the average was nearly 1.6 million viewers, according to Nielsen. When Paramount listed its slate of highly rated TV shows during its last earnings report, including "Tracker," the top rated series and "Matlock," the highest rated new series, it also listed Colbert's "The Late Show" as the highest rated broadcast late night show. "The Daily Show," also from Paramount, was the top late night show on cable TV. Some industry experts have questioned whether CBS could have explored other ways to save money — or save late night — besides outright canceling "The Late Show." NBC cut costs by eliminating the band on Meyers' late night show and shifting Fallon to four nights a week instead of five. CBS tried to bring a younger demographic into the hour with "After Midnight," a late night show that ran after Colbert. The show was hosted by comedian Taylor Tomlinson and was centered on viral internet phenomena. Though CBS intended to renew the show after its first two seasons, Tomlinson decided not to extend her contract, and the show was canceled.

I worked the night shift and spent it chatting with a guy in the UK. He flew to the US to meet me, and we've been together for 27 years.
Back in 1997, I was working the night shift when I met a man online who lived in the UK. We started chatting every night for hours, and after six months, he flew to the US to meet me. After dating for three months, we got engaged, and we've been together ever since. In 1997, I met my husband thanks to an obnoxious coworker. I was a 27-year-old data entry clerk at the California Department of Food and Agriculture. My coworkers were other recent graduates making ends meet. We were friends — all of us except one. This particular coworker, as she liked to remind us, came from a wealthy family. She didn't talk to us often — that is, except when she felt like bragging, as she did the day she trounced into the office to announce her brother had won a radio. My coworkers and I decided we, too, would win something. And our prize would be cool because it would be won online. (Remember, in 1997, the internet was a shiny new toy.) Unfortunately, I was the only one with a computer, as very few people had personal computers then. So, every night, I entered all of us into a plethora of competitions. I got in the habit and kept at it even after I got a much better-paying job, working the night shift at a publishing plant. In the process, I discovered a site that paid virtual coins for clicking on other webpages. One of the sites it paid me to visit was American Singles, a simple and slightly boring bulletin board. As I was about to log out, I met a 26-year-old guy calling himself Dionysus. We immediately hit it off, and I stayed logged on. We chatted every night for 6 months He was finishing his degree, and though he was in the UK, because I was working the night shift, it was basically like we were in the same time zone. We talked about everything, for about six hours each night for six months. I told him things I hadn't shared with anyone else. In fact, I got so wrapped up in talking to him that I completely forgot to keep entering contests. I chatted with abandon, completely unaware that he was paying for the internet by the minute. When his bill came, he decided it would be cheaper to fly to the US to meet me in California. He asked if that would be OK, and I said yes. Then, he came to the US to visit me I was both anxious and excited, and those co-workers, with whom I was still friends, didn't help. They asked how I knew the man I was talking to wasn't a 60-year-old grandmother. I didn't; I'd only learned three months into chatting that his real name was Adrian. His timing was also unfortunate. At the time, there was a story all over the news about a stalker using the internet to prey on a young girl. So, when I told my mom a guy I met online was coming, she panicked. "He's an ax murderer, I'm driving down," she said. I begged her not to come, but our conversation did nothing to alleviate the apprehension that had been building. A stranger from another country would soon be staying in my apartment. Was this a good idea? It was a bit awkward at first, but we got through it When we finally met, we discovered a few cultural differences. Though English people generally don't tend to have a flair for the dramatic, picking up stakes and coming to a new country just to meet someone you've been chatting with online is pretty bold. So, Adrian tried to compensate during our first visit by making his surroundings a bit more English. On his first night in the US, we had pizza. I opened the box and took a slice. He sat staring at it. "Do you have a knife and fork?" he inquired. I assured him I did. "Can I have them?" I gaped, and watched with amusement as he attempted to eat a pizza with utensils. After a while, he gave up and ate with his hands. (When we went to the UK to meet his family, I understood. You can't eat British pizza any other way.) Since pizza was not an unalloyed success, I decided to take him to Starbucks, thinking, who doesn't know about Starbucks? It turned out, the British. (The chain's first store opened in London in 1998, and Adrian had never been to one before. He asked me if it was named after Battlestar Galactica.) Welcome to America. But we persevered and, over time, learned one another's routines, insecurities, and quirks. When it got serious, I took him to meet my mom. She really liked him — possibly because he passed the test of not hacking me to death. We dated for about three months after he came to the US. During that time, we toured San Francisco and camped on the beach in Monterey. Then, he asked me to go to the UK for two weeks to meet his family. His family was incredibly welcoming, and one of his friends took a week out of his life to show me their corner of England. I loved it, and I loved his family. When we got back to my apartment in Davis, we settled down to watch a documentary about mummification. As the narrator described the process, Adrian asked me to marry him. I said yes, and we eloped in 1999. It's been 27 years since we met in person. We are now 54 and 53 years old, and of course, we are still chatting.
