Miley Cyrus Calls for More Enthusiasm at the 2024 Grammy Awards

At the energetic 2024 Grammy Awards, Miley Cyrus, the 31-year-old pop sensation, wasn't afraid to let the audience know they weren't meeting her expectations. The event, held in Los Angeles at the Crypto.com Arena on February 4th, witnessed Miley performing her hit single 'Flowers.' However, she observed a lack of enthusiasm in the crowd and didn't shy away from addressing it publicly.

Not Enough Energy in the Room

Amid her performance, Miley called out to the audience, challenging them for being too subdued. 'I can buy myself flowers / Write my name in the sand,' she sang, then candidly questioned into the microphone, 'Why you acting like you don't know this song?' The audience's reaction was not as vivacious as Miley had hoped. Seizing the opportunity, she encouraged them to sing along.

Stars Get Into the Groove

Following Miley's prompt, several celebrities in attendance, such as Taylor Swift, Kelsea Ballerini, and Chrissy Teigen, didn't hesitate; they got up and showed off their dance moves. Notably, these stars heeded Miley's call and energetically jammed to her 'Endless Summer Vacation' track.

A Night of Triumph and Musical Twists

Cyrus didn't just make a statement with her call-out. She also made a personal milestone at the award show, expressing it through her art. In the final moments of 'Flowers,' she altered the lyrics to celebrate her victory, singing, 'Started to cry and then remembered: I just won my first Grammy!' This marked a huge triumph, as she clinched Best Pop Solo Performance, excelling over other top nominees including Taylor Swift, Doja Cat, Billie Eilish, and Olivia Rodrigo.
