Billy Ray Cyrus has broken his silence after being mocked for his disastrous appearance at Donald Trump’s inaugural ball.

The veteran country singer, 62, came under fire for his outing at the Liberty Ball at the Washington, D.C., Convention Center hours after the inauguration.

Social media users attacked him over issues including the authenticity of his performance, which appeared to be plagued by technical difficulties, hours after Carrie Underwood also saw flaws in her performance of America The Beautiful.

Now Cyrus, 63, has issued a statement addressing her own failed show, which included her songs Old Town Road and Achy Breaky Heart.

“I wouldn’t have missed the honor of playing this event, whether my microphone, my guitar, and my monitors were working or not,” he said defiantly. People.

‘I was there because President Donald J. Trump invited me. I had a dance at the Liberty Ball last night and over all these years I’ve learned that when the producer says, “You’re ready,” you entertain people even if the crew goes to hell.’

Billy Ray Cyrus has broken his silence after being harshly criticized for his disastrous appearance at Donald Trump’s inaugural ball.

He concluded his statement by putting a positive spin on the debacle, declaring, “I was there for the people and we had a great time.” That’s called rock n roll!!!’

During the Liberty Ball, after the performance of the song Old Town Road, Cyrus could be heard discussing technical problems with the stage crew.

He was heard saying: ‘Is my guitar still on? I think they cut me off. I don’t listen to my guitar anymore.’

At one point, Cyrus pointed to his guitar and asked the crew members, ‘Is anyone awake?’

He continued: ‘Don’t I hear it? Will you hear it? Is there anyone back there? Can someone turn my guitar back on? Let’s sing some more.’

At one point, a frustrated Cyrus admitted that he was losing interest in continuing to act.

‘Do you want me to sing more or do you just want me to get on stage?’ said. “I don’t give a damn.”

After a technician remedied the situation, Cyrus referred to the Commander in Chief and said, “When you have technical difficulties, you have to keep going or, as President Trump would say, you have to fight!”

“This is just embarrassing,” said one social media user. ‘What, Milli Vanilli wasn’t available?’

Social media users appeared to be disappointed by the technically hampered performance in their comments, with one user calling the outing “possibly the most embarrassing minutes in entertainment history.”

One user said it was “very embarrassing” to see Cyrus “giving a wayward performance” on Monday while she was “clearly lip-syncing” and looking disheveled.

The nature of the criticism of Cyrus for her departure on Monday did not appear to be politically motivated, as supporters of the incoming president hurled insults in her direction.
