After she descended from a B-stage in the middle of the stands at the Hollywood Bowl on Friday night, Miley Cyrus sat hunched over on the main stage , visibly sapped by the 200-foot trek back to the spotlight. “You guys gave me so much energy, but you also took a little energy out of me, too,” she said. “It is a lot for me, if you could imagine walking from where I was through each of you and feeling how much passion and how much love each of you radiates to me. And I appreciate you so much. But it is a lot for me and it is a little bit overwhelming.”
