Gone off topic, but I'm interested. When did she get the Lyme? Did the symptoms start showing up on the AL tour? When was she bedridden? In 2014, she still had a tour, and in 2015 she spoke about her illness. Also, with Lyme, at the site of a tick bite, it forms a noticeable mark, how could she not notice this, if only it was on her head? Also, if you are bitten by a tick, if you go to the hospital and they take it out to you and send it to the laboratory for testing, or is this not the case in the USA and Canada? In no way am I trying to minimize her illness as it may seem. I feel very sorry for her, but I'm just curious to know more details. Only like 1/4 of people get the bullseye rash, and the symptoms are nonspecific, so it’s easy to misdiagnose especially in the early stages if you weren’t aware you got bitten by a tick and never got the erythema migrans rash. The test for Lyme disease looks for antibodies, which your body doesn’t produce right away after getting infected, so if the test is run too early it could be missed. And that’s not even taking into account that some doctors -more so the older ones who went to med school decades ago- just aren’t knowledgeable about Lyme disease and if you don’t fit the stereotypical presentation, won’t think to test you unless you specifically ask. And then, of course, there are the crappy doctors who don’t listen to their patients and refuse to do the test. She said she first noticed vague symptoms -extreme fatigue, generally crappy, etc- during the AL tour. I saw her in late June, and I think the week before she had to cancel a show cause she went to the hospital. By her birthday that same year, she STILL didn’t have a diagnosis and couldn’t even properly celebrate her birthday.

Around minute 15 they talk about Avril. It's funny they mention her leaving them on stage while she goes to change. They praise her because no other artist let's them have that moment.

I am in the process of watching Ed Sheeran’s documentary and he talked about how when he used to tour, how weird it was to go from playing to a big crowd to being alone after and because of it he’d get himself into “compromising situations” (he didn’t go into detail what he meant but I assume going out to bars late at night probably or something), so for his latest tour he brought his trusted friends with him and it helped him a lot. So it makes a lot of sense why Avril tends to become close with her openers (Jagwar Twin, Phem, Girlfriends) and probably one of the reasons she chose to tour with MGK and why she had such a blast on that tour. And also probably why people who work for her are also her friends like Lauren.

And also probably why people who work for her are also her friends like Lauren. I just read this article below and reminded this post of yours about loneliness while being on tour. I'll post it here in case anyone is interested hoping it's not too offtopic (the original link is smoda.elpais.com/celebrities/vips/la-profunda-soledad-de-miley-cyrus-o-por-que-cada-vez-mas-estrellas-del-pop-se-niegan-a-hacer-giras/ but I'm doing a copy-paste in the translator cause it's in Spanish): The Deep Loneliness of Miley Cyrus or Why More and More Pop Stars Refuse to Go on Tour The performer behind the hit "Flowers" has announced that there will be no worldwide tour for her latest album, leaving disappointment and anger to her fans. In recent months, other prominent artists like Justin Bieber and Shawn Mendes have also decided to forgo massive concerts due to mental health reasons, igniting a growing debate in the industry. The undeniable song of the year will have to continue being enjoyed through platforms, radios, or various venues. "Flowers," the track that has broken all streaming records in 2023 and propelled Miley Cyrus back to the top of the charts, will not be experienced live by the singer's fans due to her refusal to present her new album worldwide. "I love performing, especially for my team, but singing in front of hundreds of thousands of people is not really what I enjoy the most. There's no connection. There's no security. It's very difficult for me to please 100,000 people simultaneously. Moreover, it's unnatural. You feel isolated because you're in front of 100,000 people, but you're alone," confessed the artist, who hasn't been on tour since 2014, in an interview with British Vogue. The heated reaction from her fans later forced Cyrus to publish an explanatory note on her Instagram account –"this is not a disregard for my fans, I just don't want to continue getting ready in a dressing room"– although the decision of the "Wrecking Ball" singer is just the latest in a series of music stars temporarily bidding farewell to the stage at the height of their success. Up to 70 concerts that were supposed to make tens of thousands of groupies scream worldwide during 2023 and 2024 were canceled by Justin Bieber last February, citing "exhaustion had overwhelmed him." "I realized I'm not capable of keeping up with this pace." Similar reasons were expressed by the other Canadian pop king, Shawn Mendes, who postponed all the concerts of his Wonder tour due to the exhaustion and stress they caused him. "After discussing it with my team and working with an incredible group of healthcare professionals, I've realized that I need to take the time I've never personally taken to center myself and come back stronger," he explained. Adele did the same last year during her residency in Las Vegas. Zayn Malik, former member of One Direction and now a solo artist, hasn't performed live since 2017 because going on stage caused him "panic attacks," and artists like Selena Gomez or Becky G have openly discussed the negative effects constant traveling has on their health. "Low blood circulation, muscle cramps, dehydration, anxiety, and inflammation in certain areas. I realized that my mental space was becoming increasingly difficult to control," stated the artist behind "Sin Pijama." Loneliness is one of the feelings that stars have wanted to confess the most, thus shattering the aspirational, envious, and glamorous factor that surrounds stardom. Just like Miley Cyrus, a "married to her loneliness" Lady Gaga opened up about it during a call with designer Brandon Maxwell in the documentary she starred in for Netflix: "I'm alone, Brandon. Every night. And all these people will go away. They will leave, and then I'll be alone. I'll go from being touched and spoken to all day to complete silence." Florence Welch from Florence and the Machine confessed that the reason she started her career as a vocalist was to "drink and party," and everything changed when she quit alcohol. "At first, sobriety was very lonely. I was the first one in my environment to stop drinking, and those two years were very tough." Awards don't buy happiness, as Taylor Swift demonstrated when she wondered, just after winning the Album of the Year Grammy, "if she should have someone she could call now." In a television interview, Michael Jackson also referred to the gilded prison he lived in for most of his life: "I used to sit in my hotel room and cry alone because I couldn't go outside. There were fans everywhere and helicopters and press...," he reminisced. However, Miley Cyrus's case resonates with special intensity in the industry as an example of an artist who has been relentlessly exploited since early childhood. As @milesholy, a Twitter user celebrated by the singer's fans, recalled in a thread, at just 14 years old, she was already touring with 70 dates in just three months and she herself complained that no one took care of her: "It didn't seem important to them to give vocal rest days to someone who made so much money for such a big corporation because that meant a loss of money. I had no decision-making power," she explained. The progressive visibility of mental health in all aspects of society has also reached the dressing rooms of the industry's top figures, who no longer hesitate to put the brakes on their multimillion-dollar machinery if the self-destructive spiral threatens to harm their emotional well-being. "There are a lot of artists who are starting out and are not aware of the dangers that come with touring. Mental health when you're on the road is something that has always been overlooked until this generation has decided to address it. We've seen the effects of this artist's life on our predecessors, and I think we've realized that we can't handle it that way, that we need to talk to someone," stated prestigious British musician James Blake. Perhaps that's why intimate, acoustic, and close tours are currently in vogue, held in small venues with essential elements, and advocated by artists from Pablo Alborán to U2. Ten-hour road trips, lonely hotel rooms, continuous flights, incompatible schedules with rest or social life, poor nutrition, addictions, media scrutiny... the flip side of a tour is far from idyllic. Moreover, the crisis in physical album sales has multiplied the number and importance of live performances when assessing an artist's success and profitability. In fact, according to a study by the Help Musicians UK foundation, 71% of musicians considered tours as a problem for their well-being, and 60% suffered from depression. In Spain, a survey on mental health among musicians conducted in 2022 by psychologist and guitarist Pau Rodríguez pointed to extremely high levels of anxiety, stress, and depression. In the face of the onslaught of such episodes, Live Nation, the largest global live events promoter, has acquired up to 3,000 copies of the Touring and Mental Health manual, which will be distributed starting this May in dressing rooms of concert venues worldwide. Written by Tamsin Embleton, a psychotherapist specialized in the music industry, the book aims to help "all those who work in live music to identify and address the various physical and psychological difficulties that can occur during or as a result of a tour." Will any of the mentioned artists follow in the footsteps of the acclaimed Kate Bush, who spent 35 years without setting foot on a stage?

Thank you for posting this, it gives a great perspective on many of the things artists have to deal with. And why you'll not hear me complaining when Avril takes time for herself to live her life and find a healthy work-life balance for her mental health sake. She has worked hard to get were she is today. And above all else I want her to be happy in this life, because her music has certainly brought me me much joy, and really helped me get through some rough times in my life, and I truly wish her all the best in this life and I absolutely want her to be happy !!!

Any chance you could send me that as an audio file? I know I can also download it from YouTube, but I thought it would be fair to ask you first

Avril was a few minutes Ago in the German "news" tv show with her String Photo. She looks hot loool To me this look on her is sexy but still on brand because of her funny expression and baggy pants, no complaints from me. Also as a girl in 2023 I just can't find it in me to not like a woman looking and feeling sexy!

I know I can also download it from YouTube, but I thought it would be fair to ask you first You can find his email in the YouTube bio under videos and ask for the file 🎶⭐️ Super good quality! Totally brings back memories and gives me a lot of post-tour feels…
