The ‘Wrecking Ball’ hit-maker joined Robin Thicke onstage for an infamously crude performance of his song ‘Blurred Lines’ at the awards in 2013. The history-making performance involved Cyrus twerking with giant teddy bears and stripping down to a nude bikini whilst kissing Thicke on the neck.
Last year Cyrus showed up at the ceremony in a completely different context accompanied by Jesse Helt, 23, who accepted her award for Video of the Year and read the star’s acceptance speech in a bid to raise awareness for youth homelessness.
‘I’ve survived in shelters all over… Though I may have been invisible to you in the streets, I have a lot of the same dreams that brought many of you here tonight’ said Helt as he accepted the award. ‘A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality.’ Controversy was sparked when it transpired the alleged homeless youth was in fact an aspiring model who chose to live on the streets.
