Miley Cyrus is speaking out about her journey to sobriety, and is celebrating six months without alcohol or marijuana!
In a new interview with Variety the 27-year-old artist explained her new lifestyle and opened up about how her godmother Dolly Parton helped her explore her new identity as a sober artist.
Needless to say, we are so proud of Miley!
From Hannah Montana to her Bangerz album. From Malibu to Mother's Daughter.
Fans have seen Miley grow and evolve as a musician and find her own unique style.
While chatting with Variety Miley revealed her favorite interview moment was when she said anyone who smoked weed was a "dummy."
"One of my favorite interviews is when I say, 'Anyone that smokes weed is a dummy.' That one I love to send to my parents, who are big stoners, every now and then," she laughed.
She clarified that she began her journey to sobriety after her major vocal cord surgery in November.
"I’ve been sober sober for the past six months. At the beginning, it was just about this vocal surgery. … But I had been thinking a lot about my mother."
I did a lot of family history, which has a lot of addiction and mental health challenges. So just going through that and asking, “Why am I the way that I am?” By understanding the past, we understand the present and the future much more clearly. I think therapy is great."
"It’s really hard because especially being young, there’s that stigma of 'you’re no fun.' It’s like, 'honey, you can call me a lot of things, but I know that I’m fun.' The thing that I love about it is waking up 100%, 100% of the time."
We're so proud of Miley and her amazing accomplishment! Way to go, girl! Keep up the amazing work!
