Miley gets the London look

WITH her tongue firmly poked out of her mouth, Miley Cyrus brought her crazy kaleidoscopic pop extravaganza to Sydney.

Opening her Allphones Arena concert with an explosion of balloons, dancing animals and ear-splitting screams, Cyrus took the stage in yellow feathers looking like the naughtiest Tweety Bird brought to life.

POP STRIP: Are our pop stars like Miley Cyrus becoming too racy?

Within 10 minutes she had dropped more F-bombs than a Mad Monday footballer’s party.

Cyrus is the unapologetic pop star who can trace her lineage from Madonna to Lady Gaga but with a dose of smarts and obvious affection for her clearly besotted and worshipful fans.

Ask anyone backstage what Miley is like and everyone from catering to the promoter Paul Dainty says she is the dream artist.

No expense is spared on The Bangerz tour.

The props are as big as AC/DC or Opera Australia’s backlot.

The band can rock it and she can do shouty pop brat or emotionally wrecked ballads without appearing contrived.

Cyrus knows her audience and while some naive parents, who haven’t bothered to research the tour may be shocked, she is simply being your average twenty-something albeit on a much grander scale.

For all the cartoon antics. Cyrus packs a powerful message of tolerance and respect into the show.

And she can sing! She doesn’t mine or shirk a note.

From her own anthems Do My Thang, Can’t Be Tamed and Wrecking Ball to her tasteful selection of covers including the Beatles’ Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds, Cyrus cleverly paced the show with sound, colour, movement.

And a lot of (butt) cheek.
