Interesting facts

Miley Cyrus: Tongue Tied is an American short film directed by photographer Quentin Jones and starring recording artist Miley Cyrus. It was released on May 1, 2014, by the lifestyle website Nowness, although it had been previously used for the introduction of her headlining Bangerz Tour. The black-and-white video displays a topless Cyrus engaging in several sadomasochistic behaviors. Contemporary critics compared Miley Cyrus: Tongue Tied to earlier music videos by recording artist Madonna and the erotic novel Fifty Shades of Grey (2011), and agreed that it continued to solidify the sexually-explicit public image she had cultivated in 2013.

Background and production

Miley Cyrus: Tongue Tied was first premiered during Cyrus' headlining Bangerz Tour in February 2014; it was used as an introductory interlude for her performances, and was musically accompanied by the track "Fitzpleasure" by the English band Alt-J. It was later re-released on May 1, 2014, during which time Cyrus was recovering from an allergic reaction that consequently delayed the tour.

Miley Cyrus: Tongue Tied was created by the production and representation agency Cadence, headquartered in New York City. Neil Cooper and Nina Qayyum were enlisted as its executive producers, while Michael Angelos is recognized as a third producer. In addition to directing the project, Quentin Jones was responsible for creating its animations. Peter Duffy and Johnny Langer collaborated for the music and sound design.
