Kanye West wasn’t the only singer Radiohead allegedly dissed at the Grammys. Teen pop star Miley Cyrus was so devastated that her fellow Grammy performers wouldn’t chill with her backstage, she left the ceremony early! So she promises to “ruin” them. This latest drama was revealed on the Johnjay & Rich radio show on Tuesday. Here’s what happened.
There’s a band Miley Cyrus would be “freaking out, crying, on my knees” if she met, she tells the DJs. (I think we can relate to that much, Thom Yorke is dreamy.) She goes on to say she asked her manager to pull every string so she could just meet her heroes. Radiohead’s response? “We don’t really do that kind of thing.” It’s difficult to be sure, because Miley speaks really fast and doesn’t enunciate, but it sounds like Radiohead rebuffed her to her face. Which means I can see why she’d be upset (though you’d think this #1 superfan would know that Thom Yorke is a little shy?), but she doesn’t have to go on the radio and play a ten-minute game having everyone guess who dissed her.
Other highlights if you listen to the whole thing: Miley heard a crazy rumor that Kings of Leon are preacher’s sons. CRAZY. And, in response to the host’s guess the offending artist was Boyz II Men? “I don’t listen to rap.” At the very end, she sings a line of “Creep” to the RADIO DJ who claims to not know who Radiohead is. Audio below, via The Modern Age.
Letcha know when Thom responds on his LiveJournal.

this shit just keeps getting better
I never much understood the appeal of gossip and such.
but lately, all this shitflinging on stereogum. Good lord hilarious.
btw, all her music is at http://vastfm.com/?a=miley+cyrus if anyone wants to listen
Radiohead didn’t snub her. They just said they weren’t interested in meeting anyone other than other artists that night. Miley, realizing that she wasn’t herself an artist (kudos to her for her honesty) was offended and hurt. Tough break kid. Maybe when Daddy is done building that career arround you, and you become capable of independent thought and creation, you might be taken seriously. Maybe
miley, you are a dunce. first of all if you love them so much, why in the fucking world would you diss them?
maybe they didnt want to meet you because you are a wierdo. and hey fag,…. its “im a creep”.
whatever respect you were earning from me.. you lost it.
I dont know why so many people hate her. I just bought Miley Cyrus tickets for her Australian tour in Sydney.
file this under Gabe’s You Can Make It Up.
“The snub is just a huge misunderstanding, Tom can’t see anything out of that lazy eye”
lol
OMGROFLOLFUKYOUHO
So by “destroy” does that mean she’s going to start covering their songs in concerts?
yea really. very much looking forward to ‘ruin’ attempts
They’re not invited to my birthday party!
actually if she tried that, she’d probably make more money. Every braindead tween in the world would think she wrote “idioteque.”
miley cyrus is worthless.
Makes me love Radiohead even more.
Radiohead are offically not cool anymore.
some of you really can’t interpret sarcasm can you?
ed, they never were.
ooo early leader for lowest rated comment of the year!
this is best feud i’ve ever heard of
Please tell me this going to make The Soup this week.
IT’S MILEY!
“they don’t do stinkin’ meet just one LITTLE KID who would cry and it would make their life…”
yup. i guess there are thousands of LITTLE KIDS that let their managers “pull some strings” to meet radiohead.
Miley Cyrus: shut the fuck up and crawl back up Mickey Mouse’s asshole.
Thom Yorke: your snubbery is commendable.
thanks for that, it gave me the biggest laugh of the day!
Nice Miley cleave shot…maybe Thom didn’t want to go to jail.
its finally happened, radiohead has jumped the shark. i’m going to go have a sad, smoke half a pack of lucky strikes, put on my kefia and light my LP of OK Computer on fire.
Saying “We don’t really do that kind of thing,” doesn’t really qualify as mean.
No wonder Thom and co. steer clear of the entire awards thing — I would too if every artless musician fanboy of your’s was pestering to hang out with you because you both so happen to be musicians, and thus you’re apparently BFFs.
please, quote/unquote the word “musicians”.
Oh yeah, by all means, your suggestion is welcomed.
Radiohead = musicians / artists
Miley Cyrus = “musician” / fingerpainter
Amendment:
Miley Cyrus = “Musician”/fingerpainter/windowlicker
“[sob] I’m obsessed [sob], sooo awesome…”
Miley makes me want to kill myself
haha. its like the rap wars of the early 90′s, Miley Cyrus vs. Thom Yorke, Kanye vs. Thom Yorke, Wayne Coyne vs. The Arcade Fire, Online music Bloggers vs. the killers… Its a war zone.
Somehow I don’t see Ms. Miley’s career outlasting Radiohead’s. Call it a hunch.
Who is Miley Cyrus?
This is much better than that whole Coyne/Butler thing. They’re giants on the same huge pedestals firing potshots at each other, while this makes me think more of Scrappy Doo windmilling at a supposed monster.
Hahahahah, This is the coolest thing Radiohead has done since letting fans pay what they want for In Rainbows.
Hannah Montana let down and hanging around…
Okay, she isn’t a big enough fan. I’m sure everyone here has heard the horror stories of fans meeting Thom and him telling them to blow off.
Would I bang Miley Cyrus? Two years ago maybe.
“Would I bang Miley Cyrus? Two years ago maybe.”
Really Earl???
She was 14 then, you disturbed kiddie-diddler you.
Quick someone call a cop on this guy before he touches any innocent children…..
it’s miley! she says “its not current” in reference to the band (radiohead). um what the hell? at least she got to hang with chris martin. hopefully she got some GOOP advice.
she probably would have asked thom why he won’t play “creep” no more…
I don’t think she was born when that song came out.
If only she had cancer…in her ass!
I guess nobody watches South Park.
REFERENCE!!! I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE!!!
u happy?
Why does she feel so entitled?
LEAVE THOM YORKE ALONE!
- Chris Crocker
This whole interview hurts. Why wont her mother reign her in?
Once again, Thom Yorke is the coolest motherfucker on the planet!
First Radiohead disses Kanye and now Miley…the nerve! Doesn’t he know who they are?
(haha… this just made my day. Thank you).
So is Stereogum being sponsored by TMZ this week?
stupit bint
Who the hell listens to these shit radio shows?
really no one does
You mean Miley Cyrus has heard Radiohead and still continues to sound like she does? This is worse that Panic at the Disco acting like stupid fan boys over Tom Waits.
Someone needs to explain the concept of “indie cred” to young Miley.
Thom you is a Legend,(jonny too).ruin Radiohead I think not child!.wouldn’t be at all surprised if thom didn’t even no who the fuck you are. I certainly don’t.
“‘Sex on Fire’ is one of the greatest songs ever.”
This feud has more to do with 18th century British imperialism than people realize.
I was starting to feel bad about reading all of these comments, but this made it worthwhile. Thank you.
ditto!
mint
wait this is real?
Here’s how it went down:
Ed (elbowing Johnny): ?Geez, what a little crybaby!?
Colin: ?You gonna cry all day, crybaby??
Thom: ?You know, everyone has problems, it doesn?t mean you have to go and be a little crybaby about it.?
Ed: ?C?mon guys, let?s go, this kid is totally not cool.?
Thom: ?Yeah, that?s the most uncool kid I?ve ever met.?
Phil: ?Little crybaby.?
Dear god I hope other people get what you are referencing. This post does not have nearly enough votes.
“in response to the host’s guess the offending artist was Boyz II Men? ‘I don’t listen to rap.’”
Oy. Dumb as a sack of wet mice.
Arrest this girl, her Hitler hairdo, is making me feel ill.
This is what you get when you mess with us……
Is she going to “ruin” them by getting the Radiohead 10-13 year old girl demographic to turn against them?
Ahhh now who’s gonna listen to High and Dry?
The fact that Chris Martin would hang out with Miley Cyrus and Thom Yorke wouldn’t perfectly categorizes those two as a douchebag and a music god, respectively
my God morning radio shows are terrible. why does she sound like a fifty year old woman that has smoked for thirty years?
they went and broke her heart, her achy-breaky heart. there I said it.
I so want to lick all of your tattoos and suck your nipples!!!
mr. cool ice is ready for the challenge!
you better not challenge this dominatrix, Pauly. I’ve got rope and I know how to use it on thugs like you, Mr. Cool Ice
I thought the D was for diamond?…
Dominatrix D to you, my cool ice boy-toy. Care to explore some inescapable bondage and taunts on your inked and muscled body as you struggle?
What Bizarro Universe have I wandered into!?!?!
My brain jumped out the window when she said she doesn’t like pop music.
All you rage-filled assholes ragging on U2 and calling them the devil… can you now see your real enemy? You look so silly throwing daggers at Bono when Miley walks the earth unbloodied.
WTF?
What does he mean with “i don´t know who Radiohead are”!
Not saying that they are incredibly famous (which they kinda are) BUT WAS HE IN A FREAKIN’ COMA FOR THE PAST YEAR ?
What about the whole “pay whatever you want for In Colours” , IT WAS ALL OVER THE NEWS ! (and people´s mouths etc.)
HOW DID HE GET A RADIO SHOW! give me his job, I deserve it way more than him ( unfortunadly it involves being in the same room as Miley Cyrus)
ummm, he was doing it as a joke so the bimbo Miley could continue to spout nonsense and look like the ditz she is….
“In Colours”???
yeah, “In Colous” is the radiohead and cut copy mash up album, duh
maybe if miley wasn’t an immature little turd they would’ve posed for a few pictures. For her to react as she did just goes to show they were right to diss the little snob.
oh please, the only reason she got into music wasn’t because of Radiohead. it was because her father needed another source of revenue since his country music days were washed up. she should take her Jesus-promise ring and cram it up her ass
…the intro to “Sweet Jane” with Scorcese ballet…that’s the just the trailer…
She wasn’t wearing a promise ring when I met her, but she sure as heck had something crammed up her ass! Hooyah!!!
This is just a publicity stunt, Miley Cyrus is just an attention whore
EVERY Radiohead fan would cry to see them, so I doubt they would/could jump up and go meet them all.
And “not current” Not current?!?!?! AGH!
AND they fact that the only song she can think of to sing is Creep says a lot about how big of a “fan” she really is.
She seemed like a pretty big fan from the interview. She said she really likes the song “True Love Waits” which was never released on a studio album. Not like i’m defending her or anything.
I thought that, too. But then I realized that it’s actually on Disc 2 of that Best of Radiohead crap that EMI put out. So it really just means that she bought the ‘Best of’, not that she’s necessarily as huge of fan she says she is. =]
the live version was released on the I Might Be Wrong: Live Recordings disc.
she might’ve been referring to that.
though i doubt it & not trying to defend her because this whole thing is ridiculous.
fuck me that’s what i thought too!!! not current? and you’re a fan?!?!?! go and die…please…
miley was 9 years old when amnesiac came out AND she was raised by billy ray cyrus.
INTERNET PUBLICITY STUNT ANYBODY!?
aaaaand kudos to thom yorke for apparently snubbing EVERYBODY at the grammys.
Thata’ boy, Thom.
@Taylor: True Love Waits was released on The Best Of Radiohead. I rest my case.
I LOVE RADIOHEAD. ATTA BABE THOM
As a punishment for being such an attention whore, Miley Cyrus should have to date Chris Brown.
whats radioheads response going to be? Ask “Whats a Miley Cyrus?” and comtinue to make music.
more like poopley pooprus.
am i right?
but seriously, couldn’t they have at least humoured her/pushed her away from making music. but i digress…
I think we’re getting away from the real question here: Is there a love connection between miley and her weird father?
methinks, “yes,” and what does this mean for America?
Flaming Lips vs. Arcade Fire
Miley Cyrus vs. Radiohead
Is this real life?????????
I feel FUNNY
Is this going to be forever?
i have 2 fingers.
I started counting the “likes” but seriously, it’s like, totally impossible to keep up with them.
Anybody count how many times she said the word “like”? I’m gonna go back and like, try. It’s going to be, like, very difficult.
It just makes you sound so incredibly stupid…..
It bothers me that Radiohead are being dragged into this “fight”. God, what if TMZ follows Thommy around NYC or London or wherever they are and bothers the shit out of them? Then they’ll ask a drunken Danny Devito coming out of a nightclub what he “thinks about the Radiohead, Miley feud”. A solid song about unwarranted fame better come out of this on the next Radiohead album in 2k11
who was the person cryin like a little bitch?
you got to be kidding me, who cares miley.
Yeah, my sister has Creep on her iPod after she played it on Rock Band too! She loves them!
They should have asked her what a Kid A is, and the ruse would be completely dismantled.
“To know he blew you…
…off?”
AWKWARD HALF-SECOND THERE.
She doesn’t like pop? Could you classify her music as anything but pop? Anything at all??
She doesn’t like pop? What does she call herself, then? How could she possibly say that? Also: how in the hell does this guy work at a radio station without ever having her of radiohead ever? Does he realize how stupid he is?
“Ummmm, like, like, like, like, like; like, like, like, like, like……Radiohead, like. The end.”
–Miley
Listening to that interview made me want to claw my ears off and cleanse my brain with bleach. I know five-year-olds with more intelligence, maturity, and grace than our dear Miss Cyrus. And seriously, what person who knows anything about Radiohead – let alone someone who claims to be a huge fan – would think that asking them for special treatment would end pleasantly? (Hint: the answer contains the words “spoiled”, “brat”, and “never gets told no”.)
On a related note, Thom Yorke remains one of the coolest human beings on the planet.
wow holy shit, way to be completely obsessed with your own fame!
“so like anyhoo like yeah, so like anyhoo.”
there’s some intelligent speak there.
Can you believe the nerve of this megalomaniacal brat? I bet the only song she knows by them is Creep and I better she thinks it’s really, like, weird…
Karma police…arrest this girl
This is exactly why I love Thom Yorke..or why I hate Miley Cyrus:)
has there ever been a studio recording of true love waits released?
No, True Love Waits has only been released as a live recording, first in 2001 on “I Might Be Wrong: Live Recordings”, and later, in 2008 on the bonus disc of the “Best of Radiohead”.
“i would totally like cry over them. yea i would probably cry. ok yea i would definitely cry on my knees.”
i saw miley live at a christmas party for the law firm i work for. it was hilarious.
Radiohead are untouchable, end of story. You can’t ruin the best band on Earth.
In related news: 20 million teenagers googled “who is Radiohead?”
Wow. Lotta folks blowing up here. Do you guys know what most 16 year old girls listen to?
Speaking as a 16-year-old girl who is a Radiohead fan in a huge way, I am utterly ashamed for my species.
SHE IS NOT ONE OF US
maybe you can talk some sense into your kind. Will you also ask them to stop wearing pants with stuff written on the butt? I never know what to do with my eyes when I see that. I’m too old to stare at teenager’s butt, but I also compulsively read things over and over again when I’m bored (i.e. shopping, pooping or jogging)
Aside from not being terribly classy it makes me feel like more of a perve than I would like to admit.
This “snubbing” is going to lead to the inevitable diss track by Miley Cyrus and Coldplay featuring and produced by Kanye West. I’m sure Lil’ Wayne will have a guest spot, too. I pray (I am an atheist) that this is how she plans to “ruin” Radiohead.
Hey, you guys remember when Miley Cyrus wasn’t around? Oh the good ol’ day’s yall’.
Next: Demi Lovato against Animal Collective.
who is this chick miley?
oh that was so painful to listen to. i weep for the youth. and i’m a teacher. looks like it’s suicide for me…
avenge my death, stereogummers
She doesn’t like pop music?
this sounds like some high school gossip or something.
“now, i dont like to like…name names but…thom yorke is like a total dick cuz he didnt want to meet me. yeah. i already texted like all my friends. like if i got to meet him i would be like so excited, like….i would probably like cry or something”
I’d rather talk to a brick wall than that girl. I love her ruse in trying to convince people she’s anything other than a phillistine.
I love that incredibly snide “BUT YOU KNOW WHO WAS TOTALLY SWEET AND AMAZING AND A BETTER BAND THAN RADIOHEAD…..COLDPLAY!!!!!” As if somewhere 3,000 miles away Thom York is like “OH NO SHE DIDN’T”
what kind of a name is miley anyway
A made-up one? Her real name is Destiny Hope. (Thanks, Wikipedia!)
wtf…radiohead at the grammys?
what is the world coming to?
grammys is for grammies.
are you fucking kidding me? who does that bitch think she is? i hope she gets assasinated.
Can she like, go away now?
What a whole bunch of LOSERS. She is out of her mind just to think Radiohead would agree on meeting her… and… what type of radio dj is he, if he doesn’t even know who Radiohead is???? wtf????..
come on!! what a waist of time that interview!!!
you are missing the next part of the interview where they play Creep and the radio dj said he has never heard of that song and that he heard radio ga ga for the first time a week ago….. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqnoLYbCO_0
This just made my day. Thanks Miley for being so dumb.
no self respecting artist back stage at the grammys should be caught dead talking to miley cyrys. she’s worth every bit of her work-for-hire conract with disney
Who is this IDIOT of a radio host who doesn’t know who radiohead is?? and I love the fact that just because he knows what the song sex on fire is he thinks he’s awesome.
How do these people have jobs???
This just shows how crappy music has taken over the radio and charts in the US :(
It’s a shame that once great music blogs like this have become tabloids.
