Lauer then asked Cyrus how it feels to have people she admires, like O'Connor, trash her name online. Instead of using the moment to retaliate, the Tennessee native took the high road and praised the "Nothing Compares 2 U" singer.
"I think she's an incredible artist, I think she's an awesome songwriter, and I was really inspired by her for my 'Wrecking Ball' video, which was what started the whole thing," she explained. "I don't know how someone can start a fight with somebody who said, ‘Hey, I really respect you. And I really love what you what you did.' ‘You know what? You suck! I don't like you!' That was kind of crazy. But as I said, I'm a big fan of hers, so it doesn't really matter."
"It's all good. You can write as many open letters as you want," Cyrus added. "That's really what blogging is. I get open letters every day. It's nothing too new for me."
