During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! this week, the pop star joked: 'I was rolling around on the sidewalk - very glamorous, I know. I caught something!'
She had been recording visuals for her new track Walk of Fame, which features in her upcoming album, Something Beautiful, set for release on Friday.
Filming took place back in October, but by the time Thanksgiving rolled around, Miley was in the ICU.
She told Jimmy that emergency departments were overcrowded at the time so she was admitted to intensive care 'just for a moment'.
Recalling the infection had spread to her leg, specifically around the kneecap, she said: 'My leg began to kind of disintegrate.
"The surgeon was like, 'Do you know why you'd have such a brutal infection on your kneecap?' And I had to admit… I was crawling around on the pavement.
'To have a surgeon look at you and say, 'Yuck' - and they cut into actual brains for a living - that's a lot,' Miley added with humour.
Jimmy asked whether the pavement had at least been cleaned beforehand.
Miley admitted: 'Absolutely not. I had a big dream and a small-ish budget. Well, a decent budget - but I spent most of it on clothes.'
Rather than rent the space, Miley and her team decided to film guerrilla-style in the middle of the night.
She said: 'They were like, 'You gonna rent the Walk of Fame?' And I was like, 'No… we'll just go at midnight.''
Reflecting on the slightly chaotic shoot, she told Jimmy: 'Have you ever been to the Walk of Fame at night? I thought it was my last day.'
While she's back in fine fettle now, the Hannah Montana superstar recently told how another medical issue has rocked her career.
Thankfully, she's since made a full recovery - but it's not the only health scare that's affected her music career.
Despite fan demand, Miley hasn't embarked on a headline world tour in over a decade.
While she once blamed it on her tour outfits getting creased (a reason even she admits was flimsy), she's now come clean about the real issue.
In a recent interview with DJ Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1, Miley revealed she suffers from a large polyp on her vocal cords, as well as a condition called Reinke's edema - both of which make touring nearly impossible.
Miley explained: 'I have this very large polyp on my vocal cord, which has given me a lot of the tone and the 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.
'My voice is super-unique because of it, but I do have this Reinke's edema and I have this large polyp on my cords — and I'm not willing to sever it because the chance of waking up from surgery and not sounding like myself is a probability.'

Jessica Alba shows off her toned and tanned physique in a patterned bikini as she enjoys sun-soaked getaway to focus on 'friendship and selfcare'
She is never shy showing off her physique when on her many holidays. And Jessica Alba was flaunting her toned and tanned physique as she enjoyed her latest sun-soaked getaway this weekend. The actress, 44, slipped into a skimpy white and beige patterned two piece as she flashed a peace sign by the pool. Jessica had her abs and toned legs on display as she accessorised with a sunhat and shades while another shot showed her cooling off in the pool. After her divorce from Cash Warren, she penned in the caption of her post: 'Channeling chill - breathwork - friendship and selfcare.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the In her slew of snaps she also posed in a strapless leopard print swimsuit while spending time at a luxury spa where they were staying. Her holiday comes after she was recently spotted kissing and cozying up to a new mystery man just weeks after her divorce from Cash Warren. But recently an insider has shed light into Jessica 's life back on the market. While she seemed to have a potential new beau in London, a source insisted to Us Weekly that Jessica isn't dating anyone in particular at the moment and is merely 'embracing' the attention coming her way. '[Jessica has] gone on dates, but she isn't seeing anyone specific right now,' the source said. 'She's having a lot of fun going out with her girlfriends and being more spontaneous. She's embracing all the attention she's getting,' they added. Indeed, Jessica seems to be living it up now that she is single again. Her Instagram account shows her traveling to numerous destinations where bathing suits are a must, and she even celebrated her birthday with her gal pals in Las Vegas. 'A vegas birthday was not in the cards, but a time was definitely had,' Jessica mused on Instagram as she shared snaps from her travels to Sin City in early May. 'Grateful for the women who have been by my side through every season with nothing but love & support. No matter where we are in the world, we have the best time when we're together - te amo.' The post even included the L.E. Bowman poem 'A New Kind of Sexy', a telling clue of her post-divorce attitude. While Jessica may be an independent woman, she has had some company in recent weeks. Earlier this month Alba was spotted enjoying a very cosy-looking stroll with a man in London's Regent's Park. An onlooker told The Sun that the pair could be seen kissing on deckchairs and embracing as they strolled through the park. They said: 'They looked very intimate. They were hugging and holding hands as they walked through the park together. 'They rented out some deck chairs and they were sitting on them kissing. 'It looked very much like a new relationship.' Jessica cited 'irreconcilable differences' as the reasoning behind her separation from Cash when it was announced earlier this year, with him soon filing afterwards. During the course of their marriage, the former couple welcomed three children: Honor, 16, Haven, 13, and Hayes, seven - and both have requested for joint physical and legal custody of their kids. Eight months before it was revealed that Jessica and Cash were 'set for divorce,' the Hollywood star uploaded her final anniversary post to celebrate 16 years of marriage. At the time, Alba shared an assortment of images to her main Instagram page of the pair from over the years. She also penned a cryptic caption to accompany the snaps while reflecting on how they have gone through 'thick and thin.' '16 years of marriage, 20 years together and forever to go… Happy Anniversary @cashwarren,' the mother-of-three began. 'I'm proud of us for making it this far. There is no real set of rules or guidance that can ever prepare you for what it means to commit to another person and choose to be family.' The Honey star concluded with, 'Through thick and thin we have continually found our way back to each other and have chosen one another. Cheers to us, I love you.'

Aaron Taylor-Johnson smoulders as he flashes a glimpse of his hairy chest in an open shirt alongside Jodie Comer and director Danny Boyle at 28 Years Later event in NYC
Aaron Taylor-Johnson joined co-star Jodie Comer and director Danny Boyle at an event for their new zombie movie 28 Years Later in New York on Sunday. The British actor, 34, who sported a bushy beard, smouldered as he flashed a glimpse of his hairy chest in an open shirt while taking to the red carpet. Aaron cut a stylish figure in beige ensemble and teamed the shirt with a matching sports jacket, trousers and suede shoes. He completed with a gold necklace and flashy Omega watch, after signing a deal with the brand which provide timepieces to the James Bond franchise - in what fans believes was a hint he would soon be announced as the new 007. Meanwhile Jodie, 32, was the epitome of chic in a flowing black blouse which was worn with bell bottoms and pointed heels. DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The much-anticipated release of 28 Years Later is just weeks away, with fans left waiting two decades to discover the next instalment in the film series. And with the nation devastated by the Rage virus nearly three decades ago, this new film - released June 19 - will show insight into the vastly different ways humanity has adapted to survive. For one such community, this means complete isolation from the outside world, and in a new clip ahead of the film's premiere, star Aaron shares insight into this new addition to the 28 Days Later universe for the first time. In this new land, known as The Holy Island, humans are entirely self-sufficient, and only leave the community to hunt on the mainland, when the tide is low. Aaron plays Jamie a scavenger who is tasked with training his Spike to survive in the wilderness, before they embark on a deadly mission to the mainland. In an exclusive featurette, Aaron offers a glimpse at this new Holy Island, explaining: 'My character is part of this community that survived 20-odd years because they live on the Holy Island, disconnected from the mainland. 'They don't have doctors or medicine, can only eat what they can grow, they can go hunt, but they have to go hunt on the mainland.' 'And we have rules, if you leave the island and you don't return, there's no one going out to look for you, they're going to assume you've been infected and you're dead.' Aaron then explains that for his character's son, it's a 'rite of passage' to learn his father's hunting skills, in the hope that they can survive when they leave the island. The film is set on the real-life island of Lindisfarne, which is only accessible through a causeway during low tide. Jodie Comer also stars in the film as Jamie's wife Isla, while Ralph Fiennes plays Dr. Kelson, a survivor of the outbreak. The original film 28 Days Later starred Cillian as a bicycle courier who wakes up from a coma to discover the accidental release of a highly contagious, aggression-inducing virus has caused the breakdown of society. But despite frenzied speculation that he would be reprising his role in this sequel, when the trailer came out in December, with one character appearing to resemble a zombified form of Cillian's character Jim from the first film. However, this theory was quickly shut down when a London art dealer and model revealed he was the one playing the zombie character. Danny has since teased that viewers may get to see Cillian, 48, return after all, in one of the later films in the trilogy. Speaking during Sony's presentation at 2025 CinemaCon, the filmmaker hinted: 'Like all good things in life, you may have to wait a little while for [Cillian] to make his appearance'. 28 Years Later was filmed back-to-back with the second film, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, by director Nia DaCosta, which is being released in January 2026. Producer Andrew Macdonald previously confirmed that Cillian would not be appearing in 28 Years Later, but also suggested he could return for a future film. He told Empire: '[On] this, we wanted him to be involved and he wanted to be involved. He is not in the first film, but I'm hoping there will be some Jim somewhere along the line.' He added: 'He's involved at the moment as an executive producer, and I would hope we can work with him in some way in the future in the trilogy.' With a budget of $75million, 28 Years Later is the biggest film to be created with an iPhone and follows in the footsteps of a new Apple TV show. 28 Years Later hits UK cinemas on June 19, 2025.
