Cyrus went on the show to promote her new MAC Cosmetics Viva Glam campaign, which donates 100 percent of proceeds from her lipstick to the MAC AIDS fund. She also shared her passion for working at the Los Angeles LGBT Center. The “Wrecking Ball” singer defended herself as a role model for youth, noting that what she promotes is acceptance. “What is important to teach people is that … you can’t judge other people,” she said, adding that she, too, has been unfairly criticized. “I’m not the way that people try to make me seem … I don’t go around just trashing hotel rooms and partying, that I’m actually working on, you know, music that I love and being involved in things that I love,” Cyrus told _GMA_. Cyrus also said she was “stoked” by her [Grammy Award](http://www.people.com/article/grammy-nominations-2015-beyonce-taylor-swift-sam-smith) nomination but that she doubts she’ll win. And in an interview with [_Entertainment Tonight_](http://www.etonline.com/news/156701%5Fmiley%5Fcyrus%5Fdefends%5Fherself%5Fpeople%5Ftry%5Fto%5Fmake%5Fme%5Fseem%5Fless%5Fcentered%5Fthan%5Fi%5Fam/), she said her actions are often wrongly portrayed in media, making her seem wild. “I think people try to make me seem a lot less centered than I am,” Cyrus said. “You make choices and sometimes they’re right, sometimes they’re wrong just like in life. \[My choices\] are magnified and people kind of try to make you seem out of control when actually I’m a pretty happy, centered person that likes to do a lot of things for people. I’m not driven by just my own self and wanting more.” _This_ [_article_](http://www.people.com/article/miley-cyrus-spell-patrick-schwarzenegger) _originally appeared on_ [_People.com_](http://www.people.com)_._ ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3680879/miley-cyrus-cant-spell-schwarzenegger/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3680879/miley-cyrus-cant-spell-schwarzenegger/"},"headline":"Miley Cyrus Admits She Can't Spell Boyfriend Patrick Schwarzenegger's Last Name","datePublished":"2015-01-23T21:51:49.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T03:50:44.054Z","description":"The singer also said she's not as \"wild\" as people think","url":"https://time.com/3680879/miley-cyrus-cant-spell-schwarzenegger/","keywords":["celebrities","Miley Cyrus","grammys"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8cfefdc37eea9615/69877bb0428a9e0ba7cc6c28/miley-cyrus.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Andrea Billups / People"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8cfefdc37eea9615/69877bb0428a9e0ba7cc6c28/miley-cyrus.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"The DAILY FRONT ROW \"Fashion Los Angeles Awards\" - Show","caption":"The DAILY FRONT ROW \"Fashion Los Angeles Awards\" - Show","creditText":"Frederick M.
