On this past weekend’s episode of Saturday Night Live, Miley Cyrus appeared as the musical guest, and Elon Musk hosted the show. Throughout the night, Cyrus performed three songs, including a performance with Kid LAROI.
This episode of SNL differed with its opening, whereas they usually have the cold open where cast members appear, Cyrus started out the episode with a performance in celebration of Mother’s Day. She started by saying “Tomorrow is Mother’s Day. This is for all of the moms out there.” She then started her performances for the night by covering Dolly Parton’s “Light of a Clear Blue Morning.”
Cyrus took a bit of a rock take on Parton’s 1997 country song while staying relatively true to its roots. SNL cast members appeared throughout Cyrus’ performance to introduce their mothers. At the end of the song, Miley Cyrus’ mother Trish, walked on stage to join her. Cyrus also wished a Happy Mother’s Day to her mother, and her godmother, Dolly Parton, after the song ended.

For her third and final performance of the night, Miley Cyrus sang her song “Plastic Hearts” off of her 2020 album of the same name.
