Miley Cyrus video interview highlights:

“So this is one of my favorite videos just because of the way that it came together. It was so natural and organic. I love when life kind of shows you where to go and what’s meant to be.

“With the sledgehammer… I was doing it just, like, kidding, because Terry was over there and he was, like, ‘Look like you’re in love with it, you’re really sad!’ I’m like, I just started kissing it. I’m like, I didn’t even know why.

“It was definitely the stunt coordinator’s favorite job of his lifetime. I could definitely tell that. He’s in there swinging the wrecking ball, like this <demonstrates>! And it was scary because it would really knock down walls sometimes. Like, I would, like, actually get too much momentum and hit the wall.

“Really laying on all that rubble was not comfortable either. I don’t know if anyone thinks that’s some fake rubble but you can tell it’s definitely real. I’m in pain <grimaces/laughs>.

“For me, nudity has never been something that I’ve ever tripped about. I don’t really see it the way everyone else sees it. I’d rather be naked in front of people than cry in front of people because I don’t like showing weakness and that shows a lot of, like, vulnerabilities.”
