Miley Cyrus breaks down during Super Bowl 2021 performance
Updated | By Poelano Malema
Miley Cyrus got emotional, tearing up and struggling to sing
through the chorus of ‘Wrecking Ball’.
‘Midnight Sky’ hitmaker Miley Cyrus kick-started the TikTok Tailgate celebration at Super Bowl LV in Tampa, Florida, on Sunday.
The singer performed several songs, including 'Head Like a Hole', Dolly Parton's 'Jolene', 'Heart of Glass’, and ‘Wrecking Ball’.
During her performance of ‘Wrecking Ball’, the star got very emotional and her voice cracked when she sang: "Don't you ever think, I just walked away, I will always want you". She even had to wipe tears away.
Cyrus later explained why the song was emotional for her to perform: "Singing that song, 'Wrecking Ball' about feeling completely broken and shattered ... everyone suffering is different, even everyone's threshold of pain ... I wear a lot of glitter and I wear a lot of armor and I also wear my heart on my sleeve, and it gets broken a lot."
Cyrus's song is about her relationship with her ex-husband Liam Hemsworth, which ended in August 2019 after just eight months of marriage.
