Miley Cyrus Concerned For Britney Spears’ Mental State: Calls Singer A Record Label’s Puppet?

Miley Cyrus has shared her concerns for Britney Spears’ health in her most recent interview with ELLE magazine, admitting that she wonders whether the singer is sometimes forced to do things and somewhat taken advantage of because of her former fragile state.

Miley, who collaborated with Spears for her previous studio album Bangerz, tells the magazine that she’s a massive fan of the “Toxic” hitmaker. Having had the honor to collaborate with the mother of two on a song titled “SMS,” Cyrus is simply stressing her worries, somewhat convinced that Britney may be the puppet to her record label.

“She’s a little distant in her world. I just want Britney to be happy,” Cyrus begins saying, Digital Spy reveals. “Every time she puts out new music, I’m like, ‘Is that what she wants to be doing? Or does she just want to chill?’ She’s looking so good right now, and looking happy.”

Miley Cyrus’s comments regarding Britney Spears’ welfare comes just weeks after fans were stunned to see the 34-year-old partake in the Carpool Karaoke series for The Late Late Show with James Corden, where she infamously said she didn’t know what her song, Oops! I Did It Again…, was about.

Viewers of the show were somewhat baffled to see Britney struggling to sing her own songs; even lip syncing to some of them, leaving many people cringing at their television screens.

Miley Cyrus’ interview with ELLE also sees the former Disney Channel star talk about why she never plans on walking the red carpet again. When explaining her reasoning behind her sudden decision to boycott any red carpet appearances from now on, she says, “Why, when people are starving, am I on a carpet that’s red? Because I’m ‘important’? Because I’m ‘famous’. That’s not how I roll.”

And if fans are eagerly waiting for Miley to make her debut on Snapchat anytime soon, think again, because the singer admits that she doesn’t even know how to function the app. She says that a number of social media accounts she’s currently running is quite enough for the time being, Daily Mail adds.

“I don’t know how to use [Snapchat]. I feel like I’ll be an old lady that’s too held back, because I don’t keep up with it. I’m not on Pokémon Go. [This morning] Liam woke up and tried to go to the car wash because it was a – what do you call it? – PokéSpot.”

Miley Cyrus’ comments regarding Britney Spears and her concerns for the singer’s health comes just months after NBC confirmed her placement as a mentor on The Voice, which recent reports have claimed is the reason why she’s decided to postpone her wedding with her fiance Liam Hemsworth.

According to sources, Miley and Liam initially wanted to tie the knot this year, but after Hemsworth was approached with several blockbuster movie roles, Miley ended up signing on for The Voice, which ultimately gave the twosome no time to plan for a wedding ceremony — especially with Liam’s family being all the way in Australia.

Miley Cyrus still isn’t sure how she’s going to work out plans to have Liam’s Australian side of the family join the ceremony, following allegations that the Hemsworths aren’t keen on flying out to California for the wedding and would prefer it to be done in their hometown where Liam was born and raised.
