Miley Cyrus Stops Touring to Protect Vocal Health, Maintain Sobriety

Miley Cyrus has revealed that her health challenges, including Reinke’s edema and a large vocal cord polyp, have significantly impacted her ability to tour. The condition, which causes swelling of the vocal cords, makes performing night after night feel like "running a marathon with ankle weights," and surgery to remove the polyp risks altering her distinctive voice. Additionally, the physical and mental demands of touring pose risks to her sobriety, making sustained live performances unsustainable. Instead of a traditional tour, Cyrus is focusing on intimate performances and unique experiences for fans, alongside global cinema events to promote her new album, Something Beautiful. Despite the difficulties, she embraces her vocal condition as a defining part of her sound and identity. These revelations come as she prepares to release her new music, emphasizing health and well-being over extensive touring.
