“That confidence, like, it comes out, too. Like, how she got on stage and was like ‘Oh, y’all gonna act like y’all don’t know that song?’ Somebody who wasn’t confident wouldn’t be able to do that. But she has your voice in her head telling her, ‘You got a trophy. It don’t matter what these people [think],” he told the Cyrus matriarch.
“I was so glad she did that because you know how it is at a lot of L.A. s—. It’s like you’re too cool for school to get up, and you know you want to get up and dance. So, I was so glad she called it out,” Tish told Khalifa.

“It’s not because she won the Grammys, I think it is truly how she made people feel in the room. It was completely just Miley. Honestly, Miley like blows everything off, like it’s no biggie. I literally was emotional for like two days because the feeling in the rooms at those things can be so weird, but in that moment when Miley was on stage, the room felt like one. And I’m like, ‘Oh, she just won,'” explained the mother of five.
At the awards show earlier this month, Miley took home her first-ever Grammy Awards for best pop solo performance and record of the year for her hit"Flowers.”
