  • I've learned a lot in 15 seasons.

  • Still some things that I don't really understand in this world.

  • I don't understand the fidget spinners.

  • I don't understand Axe body spray.

  • And when I don't understand something, it's easy just to start hating on it and

  • especially haters, because you know haters going to hate.

  • >> [LAUGH] >> One thing people my age don't

  • understand are millennials, and I don't like ignorance, so

  • I want us all to be open and try to understand one another.

  • So I asked one of my friends to help me bridge the gap between millennials and

  • my generation.

  • Here to help me with a segment I'm calling Mileyennials and Me, Miley Cyrus.

  • >> [APPLAUSE]

  • [MUSIC] [APPLAUSE]

  • >> Hi Ellen.

  • >> [APPLAUSE]

  • >> Hi everybody.

  • >> [APPLAUSE] >> Miley,

  • thank you so much for being here.

  • I am going to, well, you know what?

  • I'm not gonna say your age, because I think that's rude.

  • But I do think you can help me out because you're 24.

  • >> [LAUGH] >> Yes, I am, and in fact,

  • I am a millennial.

  • So Ellen, I am here to answer any questions that you might have.

  • >> Good. Great.

  • Because my first question is why do millennials Instagram pictures of

  • their food?

  • It seems very unnecessary.

  • >> You know, food photos are just kind of a celebration of life.

  • I think we take food for granted, and

  • a photo helps remind us of the beauty that's in front of us every single day.

  • I posted some food photos this summer.

  • >> And for me, it was a celebration because I'm vegan.

  • >> Well, that's wonderful.

  • Congratulations, I am also vegan, and.

  • >> [APPLAUSE] >> I should've bragged about it,

  • I could've gotten over 500,000 likes.

  • I didn't know that.

  • >> [LAUGH] >> Okay,

  • now we're at the part of the segment where we look at our phones and

  • we don't talk to one another.

  • >> [LAUGH] >> I like that filter.

  • Okay, we're done.

  • All right, here's another question I have.

  • Why do millennials like dirty music festivals?

  • There's tons of them.

  • There's like, Coachella.

  • That's the only one I know, but it seems very hot and crowded.

  • >> Well, for a lot of people, it's about being seen.

  • Everybody goes.

  • There's tons of celebrities there.

  • >> [LAUGH] >> So if someone posted a photo of

  • themselves at Coachella with food, Instagram would just burst into flames.

  • >> Yes, but these festivals are also a really great way to see a bunch of bands

  • just in one place.

  • >> I see, but how come everybody there is watching the concert through their phones?

  • >> We're not, we're not watching the concert.

  • We're taking selfies.

  • >> I see, I see.

  • It's loud, it's crowded.

  • But everybody seems to be having such a good time.

  • Is that because they're high on life?

  • >> [LAUGH] >> Definitely.

  • >> Okay, well, thanks for explaining all that.

  • I'm still not going.

  • Last question, you are a millennial, and

  • I know that there's always a new millennial dance move.

  • Is there a new millennial dance move that you know that you could show me?

  • >> I have a good dance move.

  • >> Show me the dance move.

  • >> It's actually called the Ellen.

  • >> What is it called?

  • >> The Ellen.

  • >> Really? >> And

  • it goes a little something like this.

  • >> [APPLAUSE] >> All right, let's do it.

  • >> Ready.

  • [MUSIC]

  • >> Double time.

I've learned a lot in 15 seasons.
