Miley Cyrus got her grandmother to bake weed brownies with Snoop Dogg and herself for a VMA skit without mentioning that the chocolate batter was spiked with weed. Good thing Granny wasn't licking her mixing spoon.
"It's my grandma doing what grandmas do — baking cookies — but what she doesn't know is that they were actual edibles," Cyrus said. "RIP, she'll never know."
Cyrus' grandmother, Loretta Finley died in August 2020.
"This is when I was hosting the VMAs, and this was one of the scenes I had written because I knew I really wanted a couple of things in the show," Cyrus said.
Cyrus shared the anecdote on TikTok in a clip from a new series inspired by her latest single, "Used to Be Young,"
She said her wish list for the VMAs included psychedelic rock band The Flaming Lips, drag queens, her grandma and her pet pig.
"So Snoop Dogg was the perfect kind of like connection," Cyrus said, per Insider.
In the skit, Cyrus takes a bite of the weed brownie and immediately realizes it’s super potent. “Whoa, these maryjane brownies are strong. Where’d you get ‘em?”
Snoop replies. “I made them with my OG, my own brand, specifically your mammy,” which is what Cyrus calls her grandmother. The sketch then moves into the kitchen where Snoop, Cyrus and Mammy are actually making brownies.
Cyrus soon begins to hallucinate Snoop as her pet pig. “Snoop? Can you still rap?”
After a bit of oinking and rapping, Snoop/pet pig replies. “Of course I can…I’ve taken the form of something comforting to guide you through this bad trip but in doing so I’ve become one of the things I hate the most in the world: a pig.”
As the skit progresses, Snoop seems to be having trouble getting back to his human self but Cyrus tells him not to worry, that she’s got his back even if he remains a pig.
