According to Miley the only thing she was trying to do with this performance was to give people something to talk about and make history which I think both Miley and Robin did…
I tried finding the whole interview but unfortunately I couldn’t because the MTV site just wouldn’t let me but I will add the MTV video in this post just incase you can see it.

Here is the 30 second one I found on Youtube .

I understand what Miley was trying to do I suppose after seeing that video.
