The singer performed several songs, including 'Head Like a Hole', Dolly Parton's 'Jolene', 'Heart of Glass’, and ‘Wrecking Ball’.

Cyrus later explained why the song was emotional for her to perform: "Singing that song, 'Wrecking Ball' about feeling completely broken and shattered ... everyone suffering is different, even everyone's threshold of pain ... I wear a lot of glitter and I wear a lot of armor and I also wear my heart on my sleeve, and it gets broken a lot."
Cyrus's song is about her relationship with her ex-husband Liam Hemsworth, which ended in August 2019 after just eight months of marriage.
