Miley Cyrus’ MTV VMAs Performance Shocks Twitter [Video]
If you thought Miley Cyrus’ performance at Sunday evening’s MTV Video Music Awards was a little shocking, then you’re certainly not the only one.
Shortly after the “We Can’t Stop” singer performed alongside Robin Thicke, 2 Chainz, and Kendrick Lamar, people swarmed social media to share their thoughts and feelings about the show. Although she certainly has her supporters, quite a few people were shocked by her behavior.
Since Cyrus seems determined to move as far away as humanly possible from her Hannah Montana days, the singer went above and beyond the call of duty during her VMAs performance. Not only did she twerk on several occasions, she also spent a fair amount of time fiddling with her crotch.
After kicking things off in a strange bodysuit, Miley Cyrus ripped off the costume in favor of a very revealing two-piece. The outfit left very little to the imagination. More twerking and some uncomfortable moments with a foam finger ensued.
While the singer may have thought she was being daring and provocative during the MTV Video Music Awards, quite a few people believed she took things a little too far. Even Will Smith’s family seemed horrified by the events that were unfolding on-stage during the show.
Despite the backlash she’s receiving for her appearance at the VMAs, Miley Cyrus seemed to accomplish her mission. Before she was finished with her rendition of “We Can’t Stop,” people were talking about her performance. At the end of the day, that’s what every artist really wants.
Below you can find a series of Twitter reactions to her stint at the awards show.

You know Miley Cyrus has moved on from Disney Channel when her VMA performance has an 18+ age restriction on YouTube.
