Miley Cyrus' fans were surprised to see the singer was not in attendance at Met Gala 2021.

The singer decided to give the event a skip without revealing her exact whereabouts on Instagram. Cyrus was last photographed earlier this month, performing in Napa, California.

Talking to Vogue in June about her fashion and how her style has evolved over the years, the singer revealed, “Fashion to me is kind of flipping yourself inside out,” she said.

“It’s like wearing your heart, wearing your guts, wearing your values, wearing your identity, wearing your pain, wearing your joy. There’s something kind of childlike [about it]. You’re so fearless when you get yourself dressed when you're a kid.

"You don't think about what someone will think of you or what they’ll judge. It’s just about expression and how you feel that day. There’s a fearlessness. And so when I get dressed, I try to kind of think like my inner child, and be genuine and authentic in whatever I’m wearing," Cyrus concluded.
