“Don’t f— with my freedom,” sings Miley Cyrus on “Mother’s Daughter,” the first single from her Ep “She is Coming.” Well, she’s making the most of that freedom in the provocative music video for the song, which she released on Tuesday. Watch it above.
“Mother’s Daughter” marks a return to a more risque visual style for Cyrus, with the singer dancing in a red bodysuit while singing lyrics like “I came up to get me some / I’m nasty, I’m evil.” But the video also plays with conventions of gender and sexuality, featuring not only Cyrus but transgender model Casil McArthur, trans disabled model Aaron Philip and plus-size model Angelina Duplisea intercut with messages like “virginity is a social construct” and “sin is in your eyes.” Once again she’s pushing the boundaries, and she’s taking ownership of those boundaries.
