Miley Cyrus Slams Grammys After Waiting Years For First Win: 'Where The F**k Was I?'
HuffPost
"I’ve been doing this for 20 years, and this is my first time actually being taken seriously at the Grammys?” the pop star said in a new interview.
Miley Cyrus is taking a wrecking ball to one of music’s most prestigious awards ceremonies.
In a W Magazine cover story published online Monday, the pop star reflected on her first-ever Grammy wins earlier this year and shared some unfiltered thoughts on her long wait for recognition.
“I’ve been doing this for 20 years, and this is my first time actually being taken seriously at the Grammys?” Cyrus said, diplomatically prefacing her remarks with “No shade.”
“I’ve had a hard time figuring out what the measurement is there, because if we want to talk stats and numbers, then where the fuck was I?” she added. “And if you want to talk, like, impact on culture, then where the fuck was I?”
Cyrus argued that “This is not about arrogance,” but that she’s merely “proud” of what she considers an overlooked body of work.
