Miley Cyrus and her “We Can’t Stop” producer are admitting that one of the lyrics in the song is talking about ecstasy. Cyrus says so much of the song was already edited for the radio, so one of the line actually has multiple meanings.
Cyrus said the line that sounds like "dancing with molly" – which is the slang term for the drug MDNA – is actually "dancing with Miley" and Cyrus says that the meaning will be different for those interpreting it.
“If you're aged ten [the lyric is] Miley. If you know what I'm talking about then you know. I just wanted it to be played on the radio and they've already had to edit it so much,” she told the Daily Mail.
She also talked about her new image, in which she’s seen gyrating and simulating oral sex for the music video, saying she went through her Disney days just to get her name out.
“I would say everyone has to start from the bottom, to get where they want to go and work on things they don’t really care about doing,” she said. “So I had to do that for five years. I had to work on something that wasn’t really a passion for me just because I wanted to be able to get here, so when I was older I’d be able to just do what I want and not have to work for money.”
Cyrus talked about the backlash from her music video, saying “People need to also remember that Britney when she did Slave or anything it was just a different time so it was less real because Can’t Stop I wanted it to be kind of gritty, like everything is about Instagram, about things going viral and I wanted to celebrate that. But Britney or Madonna never played it safe, none of the best pop artists ever did. I feel like I live in a different world, I live in LA, I see everything.”
TMZ notes when it comes to her line about molly, she said "I don't think people have a hard time understanding that I've grown up. You can Google me and you know what I'm up to -- you know what the lyric is saying."
