Miley Cyrus admits she’s missing ‘human connection’ as she practices social distancing during self-quarantine
Miley Cyrus is missing ‘human connection’ as she self-quarantines amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
The Grammy-nominated artist is joining millions of people around the world in staying at home and practicing social distancing to limit the spread of COVID-19.
But she’s finding it difficult being locked away from the world, as she told Zane Lowe on Apple Music, discussing her Instagram talk show Bright Minded, which features an all-star lineup of guests.

The 27-year-old said: ‘We get so numb to people opening the door for us and saying, “Good morning. How are you?”
‘What would we give right now for it to be safe to open the door for somebody, but right now when we open the door, we think, “Oh, where’s my glove, let me get my hoodie. I’m not allowed to look at you. Get six feet away from me.”
‘And so I miss that human connection. I miss opening the door for somewhere and having the door open for me.’
Famous friends: She’s featured celeb guests like Hilary Duff, Reese Witherspoon and Amy Schumer
She continued: ‘There’s two girls that work at the cafe near my house that I get cappuccino from them every day, and I love them.
‘They make my day. They always draw little smiling faces or put my initials in my cappuccino. I miss that. I miss that connection with my daily routine.’
But Cyrus says she’s actually become ‘more connected’ through self-isolation, as she never realized how important communication was until she had to stay at home.
She added: ‘But when it comes to communication and connection, I’ve been more connected from the social distancing perspective in isolation quarantine than I have actually outside in the world, and I want to take all of these philosophies that I’m learning inside my house outside of my house when it’s safe to do so.’
Instead of going out to meet her friends, she’s been catching up with people via FaceTime.
The Slide Away artist is also encouraging people to write down the things they want to say to those who can’t use FaceTime, such as elderly relatives.
Fitness goals: The Hannah Montana star also revealed that she’s talking to Hilary Swank about doing a fitness spot, entitled Planks with Swank
She said: ‘I think maybe take this time to write what you would want to say if you get on FaceTime, and then when it’s safe for us all to be together again, telling our grandparents things that we haven’t.
‘Because I can’t really remember the last time I felt the way that I feel about my grandparents now and to protect them.’
Cyrus is also helping her 105million followers cope with her own Instagram talk show Bright Minded, featuring celeb guests like Hilary Duff, Reese Witherspoon and Amy Schumer.
