Miley Cyrus shared why she feels uncertain about having kids.
During a recent interview with W Magazine, Miley revealed that she’s unsure whether she wants to start a family.
“I’m 31 now, and I still don’t know if I want kids or not,” Miley said. “I feel like my fans kind of are my kids in some way.”
“I’ve heard Dolly say that too, because she didn’t have kids,” she added about her godmother, who is 78.
“I love being an adult,” she added. “I have a rule that I don’t look up or don’t look down at anyone. I just look, which allows me the clarity to see the world for what it really is and people for who they really are.
“I look at myself almost every day in the mirror and I say, ‘I am a woman.'”
Miley Cyrus Opens Up About Her Uncertainty Toward Having Kids
In 2019, the singer also revealed why she wasn’t pursuing motherhood at this phase of her life.
“[Women are] expected to keep the planet populated. And when that isn’t a part of our plan or our purpose, there is so much judgment and anger that they try to make and change laws to force it upon you — even if you become pregnant in a violent situation,” she said in an interview with Elle.
“If you don’t want children, people feel sorry for you, like you’re a cold, heartless bitch who’s not capable of love,” she said. “Why are we trained that love means putting yourself second and those you love first? If you love yourself, then what? You come first.”
Miley also brought up other reasons she isn’t too eager to start a family.
“We’re getting handed a piece-of-s— planet, and I refuse to hand that down to my child,” she told Elle. “Until I feel like my kid would live on an earth with fish in the water, I’m not bringing in another person to deal with that.”
