She’ll always love her.
Miley Cyrus was overcome with emotion while paying tribute to her late godmother, Dolly Parton, during a concert at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles Friday night.
The “Flowers” singer broke down in tears as she reflected on her special bond with the country music legend, who died in August at age 80.
“Me and Dolly, we are eternal. Nothing in this life could ever tear us apart,” Cyrus told the crowd, which included famous faces like Selena Gomez and Christina Aguilera, according to video footage from the performance.
“And I’m going to see her again. And I can’t f–king wait because I miss her,” she added, wiping tears from her eyes with a tissue.

The Grammy winner, 33, then launched into an emotional rendition of Parton’s 1973 hit “Jolene” as an image of her beloved “Aunt Dolly” appeared behind her onstage.
Before the performance, Cyrus shared a touching and funny memory of the only time she had watched Parton perform live as a member of the audience.
The former Disney Channel star recalled asking her godmother to let her enjoy one of her Hollywood Bowl concerts without being pulled onstage to perform alongside her. However, Parton had other plans.
Despite agreeing to let Cyrus enjoy the show as a regular fan, the “9 to 5” singer kicked off her performance with “The Best of Both Worlds,” the theme song from Cyrus’ hit Disney Channel series, “Hannah Montana.”

Parton then proudly announced to the entire audience that her famous goddaughter was sitting among them — much to Cyrus’ embarrassment.
Looking back on the sweet moment, Cyrus explained that she now cherishes the memory more than ever. She also told the audience that she could still feel Parton’s presence, despite the devastating loss.
“I feel her more now than ever,” she said.
The “Wrecking Ball” hitmaker later honored Parton again during the concert by holding a heart-shaped framed photo of the music icon.
Parton, who was a longtime friend of Cyrus’ father, Billy Ray Cyrus, became the pop star’s godmother when she was born in 1992.
The two maintained a close relationship throughout the years, frequently performing together and publicly gushing over their admiration for one another.
Parton also famously appeared as Aunt Dolly on “Hannah Montana.”
The country music icon died on Aug. 25 following a battle with cancer.
