In the caption, the "Wrecking Ball" singer explained that Oribe's memorial was beautiful and that she needed to serve for the "KING OF GLAMOUR."

Oribe passed away from a heart attack in December 2018 at 62 years old.

"We will miss you forever! Love you to the moon and back my dear friend!" she added.

She mournfully described a story that Oribe once gave her grandma, Mammie, a gorgeous wig for free after her hair began falling out because of sickness.

Miley closed out the night with a tearful rendition of "You Are My Sunshine."

"Oribe always told me fashion people don't like to sing, but I hope you'll join me," she told the crowd, who quickly broke into song.

At the point when the news broke of the Cuban-born hairstylist's passing, Miley shared photos of them on Twitter.

"Can't catch my breath…..Oh how I will miss my sweet friend…" she wrote.

Miley added that it makes her shake in disbelief, realizing that she can't call Oribe anymore to giggle, to talk, and to talk life.
