Miley Recovers After Sick Gig

Miley Cyrus has had to bail out on a gig in New Orleans after being taken ill.

However, after just five minutes she bounded back on stage on Saturday, greeted by a wall of applause from fans.

A stagehand placed a stool in the spotlights and the 15-year-old took a seat, telling the crowd: "Thanks, you guys. I feel a lot better, but I'm going to sit this one down."

After returning to the stage, Miley made it through a few more songs and then her “best friend and hero”, dad Billy Ray Cyrus, who was in town to perform at Family Gras, joined her for an encore, singing their duet Ready, Set, Don't Go.
