Miley Cyrus was unstoppable when she owned the stage during her performance of the special rendition of "My Way" for Bill Murray at the Kennedy Center, Washington D.C. on Sunday night.
The teenage pop star was performing a rendition of My Way in honor of Bill when things went off-centred.
'I f***ed it up,' Miley reportedly spoke to the audience, pausing during the middle of the song after flubbing over the lyrics, according to a report by PEOPLE on Monday.
"Sorry guys. I got too stoned," the "Can't be Tamed" singer continued after erring on the mid-song lyrics.
However, according to the Associated Press, the 66-year-old Bill Murray, who was the man of the night, was the first person to defend Miley.
"This is happening right now in Washington D.C., the 51st state in the union," Murray kidded.
While Murray, who was receiving the 19th Annual Mark Twain Prize for Americal Humor, tries to defend Cyrus' mistake, the pop star and her crew came in again like a wrecking ball for a second attempt which went better than the first one.
Murray and Cyrus have been comrades since her cameo in A Very Murray Christmas, Murray's 2015 Netflix holiday musical comedy special. Murray previously told a Comic-Con audience that he was pleasantly astonished by the 23-year-old pop star.
"I was not convinced, but Miley Cyrus is really f-ing good. She can sing," Murray said in an interview way back 2015. "I thought she was a knucklehead crazy girl that you'd want to go on a road trip with, but she can sing."
Said tribute in honor of Bill Murray featuring Miley Cyrus' slight flub will air Oct. 28 at 9/8 c on PBS.
