Miley Cyrus Recalls ‘Extremely Excruciating' Medical Emergency During Show
There's a 'traumatic' backstory to ' 'New Year's Eve Party' NBC special when she rang in 2023 on the cusp of a medical emergency and health scare. The musician interviewed with Zane Lowe ahead of the release of her new album, 'Something Beautiful,' and detailed the distressing and 'extremely excruciating' experience. The backstory had remained undisclosed until Cyrus' revelation, as everyone could remember her zestful takeover of the stage alongside her co-host and godmother, Dolly Parton. That night, the dynamic duo performed several hits, with multiple other guests and 'Saturday Night Live' stars joining them. Miley Cyrus' night didn't quite go as planned for her NBC special 'New Year's Eve Party' when she suffered from a 'medical emergency' due to an ovarian cyst rupture. In her interview with Zane Lowe, she detailed her 'pretty traumatic experience' on the show, which was contrary to what everybody saw. 'I had a, uh, ovarian cyst rupture,' Cyrus told Lowe while recalling her unpleasant night as she rang in 2023. 'We didn't know exactly what was going on, so we did it, but it was pretty traumatic, cause it was extremely excruciating,' she detailed. The Grammy winner revealed that she 'did the show anyway,' but claimed it had been 'really, really hard on me.' In fact, it was so distressing for her that she even considered discontinuing her music career — a journey she embarked on as a kid. But something the show's executive producer and 'SNL' creator, Lorne Michaels, told Cyrus helped her change her mind. In the interview, she recounted having dinner with Michaels afterward when he 'said something that now has stuck' with her. 'He goes, 'Six months, everybody has six months to feel sorry for themselves, and then we start to rebuild,'' Miley Cyrus narrated as she remembered their conversation. Cyrus claimed she knew it was far beyond her 'amount of time that I was able to shut down.' She continued how Michaels further shared with her about the countless artists who have told him about 'quitting music,' as he explained to her that everyone 'has these traumatic experiences.' Ultimately, the 32-year-old singer recanted on her intrusive thoughts about pulling the plug on her remarkable career and gave her fans the music they deserved.

Miley Cyrus says she has Reinke's edema, a disorder that makes her voice "super unique"
Miley Cyrus has opened up about her experience with Reinke's edema, a vocal cord disorder that she says causes her signature sound. During a recent interview on Apple Music's "The Zane Lowe Show," the singer, 32, described the disorder as "abuse of the vocal cords." "Being 21 and staying up and drinking and smoking and partying after every show does not help. But also, in my case, it does not cause it. My voice always sounded like this, so it's a part of my unique anatomy," she explained. "So 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 also makes touring challenging because the condition creates the "ultimate vocal fry," Cyrus said. Here's what to know about the disorder. What is Reinke's edema? Reinke's edema, also known as polypoid corditis or vocal cord edema, is the swelling of your vocal cords, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Though it's most common in people with a long-term history of smoking, it can also occur in people with chronic acid reflux or repetitive vocal trauma. Certain types of Reinke's edema can lead to polyp-like growths on one or both vocal folds, the clinic adds. Reinke's edema is also rare, the clinic notes, affecting less than 1% of the general population. Reinke's edema symptoms Symptoms of the disorder include changes in vocal quality or loudness, a gradual deepening of the voice as well as hoarseness or raspiness, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Cyrus said that it can make live performances physically taxing for her. "It's extremely difficult to perform with because it's like running a marathon with ankle weights on," she said. "Even when I'm talking sometimes, at the end of the day, I'll call my mom, and she'll go, 'Oh you sound like you're talking through a radio,' and that's how you know I'm really tired because it creates that like ultimate vocal fry." "My voice is super unique because of it," she added. Reinke's edema treatment There are a number of ways to treat Reinke's edema, including nonsurgical and surgical options. The Cleveland Clinic notes surgical options include laser therapy to remove vocal fold growths as well as microlaryngoscopy, where a surgeon removes swollen tissue with small tools and a microscope. Nonsurgical options include speech therapy and treating underlying causes, including quitting smoking or taking medication to reduce acid reflux. Cyrus said she's "not willing to sever it because the chance of waking up from a surgery and not sounding like myself is a probability."

Miley Cyrus reveals another shock medical condition that stops her from touring
Miley Cyrus has revealed another shock medical condition she suffers with that stops her from touring. The Flowers singer, 32, who recently admitted she ended up in the ICU, credits her signature raspy voice to a 'very large polyp', an abnormal growth of tissue, on her vocal cord. She said on Apple Music's The Zane Lowe Show: 'It's a part of my unique anatomy. '[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.' Dubbing her tone the 'ultimate vocal fry' she added that her popstar lifestyle of 'staying up late, drinking, smoking and partying' when she was 21 did not 'help' her voice, but did not 'cause it. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'I do have this blessing of a condition that I live with. My voice is super unique because of it.' Cyrus said she is scared to get surgery on her polyp as she risks 'not sounding like herself' although it makes performing much harder. Adding that live shows are 'taxing', she said any proposed tour would have to be 'sustainable' for her as she does not lip-sync. Elsewhere in the chat she revealed she hid a 'extremely excruciating' medical emergency from her fans while recording a New Year's Eve special. The three-time Grammy winner opened up in detail about a harrowing health scare as 2022 turned into 2023. The Franklin, Tennessee native had been working with her godmother Dolly Parton on her TV special Miley's New Year's Eve Party when an ovarian cyst ruptured. The End of the World singer said she 'had a pretty traumatic experience on a show that I was doing with' SNL creator Lorne Michaels. Miley said, 'I had a medical emergency - I had an ovarian cyst rupture - we didn't know exactly what was going on so we did it.' Miley said that she stuck to the credo that the show must go on, despite severe physical symptoms that likely would have sidelined other performers. 'It was pretty traumatic because it was extremely excruciating and I did the show anyway,' Cyrus said on the music-focused chat show. The Slide Away songstress emphasized that taking the stage with the ailment 'was really really hard on' her. She also revealed she ended up in the ICU over Thanksgiving after contracting a brutal infection that left her leg 'disintegrating' - even making a seasoned surgeon gag. The pop star opened up about her harrowing experience on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Thursday. She details the bizarre cause of the injury: rolling around on the grimy Hollywood Walk of Fame while shooting a music video for her visual album Something Beautiful in October. 'I caught something,' she told Kimmel. 'My leg began to disintegrate... around the kneecap area. And then the doctor goes, 'Do you have any idea why you would have such a brutal infection on your kneecap?'' Cyrus mimed rolling on the sidewalk as she explained how she had to come clean about the source. 'I had to tell him,' she said. 'To have a surgeon look at you and say, 'Yuck…' They open up cadavers. They see inside the guts of humans, and they're looking at me, telling me I'm disgusting. And they do brain operations!' 'Have you been to the Walk of Fame in the middle of the night?' she asked Kimmel, before joking, 'I thought it was my last day.' While she's fully recovered, it's safe to say Miley won't be filming on Hollywood Boulevard again anytime soon.

Miley Cyrus Says Winning a Grammy for ‘Flowers' Helped With ‘Healing'
could not have been more honest as she detailed how winning her first Grammy Award for 'Flowers' was 'healing' for her. The singer-songwriter and actor is gearing up for the release of her upcoming album 'Something Beautiful.' Ahead of the new record drop, Cyrus recently sat down with Zane Lowe for a candid interview. While in conversation, the former Disney star opened up about how much holding the trophy for 'Flowers' meant to her. Miley Cyrus got candid about her Grammy win for 'Flowers' while appearing on the May 21 episode of Apple Music's 'The Zane Lowe Show.' Last year, the 32-year-old artist won big at the 66th edition of the prestigious awards show when she swept the trophy for Best Pop Solo Performance and Record of the Year for her hit 2023 song. Cyrus reflected on the same while in talks with Zane Lowe during the recent interview. Cyrus recalled, 'I think for me, with 'Flowers,' somewhere inside of me — maybe my ego, or maybe, you know, the amount of time that I dedicated myself to it.' She continued, '…I think somewhere inside of me, I needed maybe to hold a trophy.' Cyrus explained that she wanted to 'feel for a moment' that she has something that she can 'hold' in her hands that 'feels like a true achievement.' Cyrus continued to share that after every album she made, she would tell herself, 'Well, I did what I came here to do, and I made the album that I set out to make, and that's enough.' The 'Hannah Montana' star explained that maybe it was the 'kid' in her that wanted something tangible to feel fulfilled. Cyrus said, 'I needed, like, something to hold that made me feel like I had really won.' The 'Party in the U.S.A.' hitmaker added, 'And so at the Grammys, that's why I went, it was actually for, like, healing.' Originally reported by Shriya Swami on RealityTea.
