On Wednesday, February 3, Cyrus posted a video of herself to her IGTV and Instagram story running on a Peloton treadmill—while belting out “Rebel Girl” by Bikini Kill. She captioned the video, “#SBLV PREP ☠️ Angels like you can’t fly with rebel girls like me 😈👼.” In the background of the video, you can also hear a person suggest she match her running pace with the rhythm of the song, which she does without missing a beat.
The singer, who recently released her album Plastic Hearts, hopped on the Peloton Tread in a pink Nike sports bra, pizza socks, and black joggers and shoes. After running and singing for about a minute and a half, she hops off the Tread, only slightly winded, hydrates and catches her breath and for about a minute. She then continues practicing her performance—as if she didn’t just complete some tough speedwork while singing.
A few songs later, off-camera, someone can be heard saying “that’s an athlete right there,” and we agree—she might even be a rockstar.
The following day, Cyrus uploaded another video of herself, this time speed-walking and singing on the treadmill.
After seeing those two videos from Miley, Lizzo decided to give it a try herself. “I saw Miley running and singing her song for stamina, so I’m, going to run and sing for stamina. I’m doing this for all the big girls out there, they said we couldn’t do it,” she said in her Instagram video.
Then, Cyrus noticed the video and posted it to her Instagram story with the caption, “I love you more! When I’m back from super bowl we gonna try doing this sh*t IN MASKS! Letssss g00ooooo! 💪”
Are we sensing a Miley/Lizzo treadmill album coming soon?
