Miley Cyrus to mentor contestants in the art of Miley Cyrusdom on The Voice
It’s not easy being Miley Cyrus—which might explain why only one person has so far pulled it off. The “Wrecking Ball” singer has spent years now walking on the soap-thin bubble of public perception that divides “self-destructing hot mess,” “attention-seeking provocateur,” and “legitimate, credible artist,” always staying one step ahead of being irrevocably pigeonholed. A naked concert here, a Twitter feud there, a charismatic Bill Murray collaboration on the side: it’s a delicate balancing act, and one that most rising artists would need guidance to successfully pull off.
