[On Thursday’s _Ellen Show_](http://ellentube.com/videos/0-l54erbv1/), the host asked the _Voice_ coach about that ring. And although Cyrus did not directly answer the question of whether or not she’s formally [betrothed to the Hemsworth brother](http://time.com/4401005/miley-cyrus-liam-hemsworth-vegemite-tattoo/?iid=sr-link2) and _Hunger Games_ actor—brushing right past Ellen’s congratulations—she _did_ explain why wearing the “engagement ring” as Ellen called it can be a bit [challenging for her sometimes.](http://time.com/4487816/miley-cyrus-red-carpets-zoolander/?iid=sr-link7) “It’s very weird because this is like real jewelry and most of my jewelry is made out of gummy bears and cotton candy, and they don’t look that good together because they kind of mix up, so sometimes I replace it with an actual unicorn or a Looney Tune. And he’s kind of like, what’s going on? I am like, this isn’t really my aesthetic, but I’ll wear it because you \[Liam\] love me,” Cyrus explained to DeGeneres. Relationship aesthetics can be hard. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4547653/miley-cyrus-on-engagement-ring-video/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4547653/miley-cyrus-on-engagement-ring-video/"},"headline":"Watch Miley Cyrus Discuss Her 'Engagement Ring'","datePublished":"2016-10-27T16:06:08.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:38:05.241Z","description":"\"...but I’ll wear it because you love me.\"","url":"https://time.com/4547653/miley-cyrus-on-engagement-ring-video/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Entertainment","celebrities"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Raisa Bruner","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4547653/miley-cyrus-on-engagement-ring-video/","name":"Watch Miley Cyrus Discuss Her 'Engagement Ring'"}}]}] ```
