Miley Cyrus got her first taste of hosting a daytime talk show when she stepped in to cover for Ellen DeGeneres this week, and the controversial singer worked hard to ease viewers into the change.

"I know all of you came to see Ellen so I’m gonna do my best to make you very happy," Cyrus, 23, said at the start of the show after dancing out onto the stage in a pitch-perfect impression of DeGeneres' typically enthusiastic entrance. "I’m dressed like her, I smell like her, [and] just before I came out here I actually kissed a girl!"

DeGeneres had to take the day off after coming down with an illness, but her replacement couldn't have been more excited for the opportunity to host the comedian's popular program.

"Thank you guys for making me feel so welcome," Cyrus told the cheering crowd. "I’ll admit I’m a little bit nervous because I’ve never hosted a show with my clothes on before so this is so weird!"

The "Wrecking Ball" singer had to address the reason behind DeGeneres' absence, sharing, "Don’t worry you guys Ellen will be fine, but she just isn’t feeling well."

"I gave her a bunch of Molly to make her feel better," Cyrus joked. "It’s working."

The outspoken pop star went on to interview Sarah Jessica Parker and Idina Menzel in the fun episode which airs Thursday. Check here for local listings.
