The same TV special included a shocking moment when Cyrus’ skimpy top malfunctioned as she was starting to sing, sending the star offstage briefly to get a bright red blazer to wear as she finished her performance.

“I’m still in the most clothes that I’ve ever worn onstage,” Cyrus joked between lyrics as she sang “Party in the USA.”
