She premiered the quick movie that accompanies her new LP on the Tribeca Pageant on Friday night time.
Nevertheless, in the course of the dialog portion of the night time at NYC’s Beacon Theatre, the “Flowers” singer was heckled by some followers who have been seemingly beneath the impression that Cyrus can be performing on the occasion.
