MANILA, Philippines—The first thing Miley Cyrus tweeted about Manila when she got here was how the time zones are whacking her out.
Yet, she appeared fresh and excited when she entered a fully-packed room filled with members of the press at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Makati City. She wore a brown vest over a white sleeveless top, faux leather shorts, and high-heeled espadrilles. Her accessories were kept at minimum with a few simple rings and a long necklace with beads. Her curly, dirty blonde hair stretched past her chest.
“The fans have been amazing. I’ve been on this show (this morning) and they’re all super stoked. They had signs. It’s just great when you see people excited. I guess it helps when it’s your first time here,” she said when asked what her thoughts are about Manila.
Miley will perform live at the SM Mall of Asia Concert Grounds Friday night (June 17) as part of her Gypsy Heart World Tour. Manila is her only stop in Asia before she continues the tour in Australia. A source from the Future Entertainment Inc. said that they were expecting at least 30,000 people to attend the concert.
She talked about her recent tour in South America when asked how it feels to perform in a crowd who spoke a different language.
“I think it’s really amazing. I think it’s more of a spiritual connection when you see people cry, you see people laugh (because of your songs). It’s all right if we don’t speak the same language because my music works that out for us.”
