Miley Cyrus and the "third music video"

Miley Cyrus released a few days ago the music video for Jaded and it wasn't that well received. They mainly called it lackluster or lazy as it only features her doing beauty poses in her own house in Malibu.

This isn't the first time she takes it down a notch like this though. In her previous eras the third video also got the "home-made", low budget or low-key treatment. Bangerz started off with We Can't Stop and Wrecking Ball, and then Adore You came out.

And even though Plastic Hearts started right in the pandemic, she pulled an incredible feat for the lead single music video that was filmed in her house. But then Angels Like You was the closer of the era with yet again a low-key vibe for its music video.

There's always a bigger difference between the third video and the previous ones. Do you think it's because the choice of the song, as that itself requires to take it down a notch? Or does she just gets tired?

Going back to Endless Summer Vacation, even after the success of Flowers and its longevity on the charts Miley doesn't seem interested in pushing the rest of the album... but maybe she really is one that gets over her eras shortly after the album is out. Which leaves me wondering... has the endless summer vacation reached its end?

I think it's actually more that the vibe of the songs is way more stripped and also it's smart not to put too much money into making a high budget video for a third single. Are the videos boring tho? GODDAMIT YES:iamfair:

 Her music videos for this era have been mediocre. Flowers and Jaded look like they were filmed from her house and River is literally nothing but Miley doing poses.

I have this bad feeling that, because she had the new record deal and was required to deliver the first album, perhaps she was pressured into creating it faster than she wanted and maybe she's just not loving the material.  Maybe that's why she's not promoting or performing, and maybe why the Jaded video is just her going through the motions and giggling her way through it.  Maybe she's not feeling the whole thing.  :/

I think it's because she gets a very limited promo budget from her label. :shrug:
