On Wednesday, June 23, the 28-year-old singer shared previews from her Pride concert special on Instagram. Among those she put out was a clip of her and Maren's rendition of the iconic single. For the duet, the twosome could be seen donning matching magenta '70s style outfits. At one point, "Hannah Montana: The Movie" star called her singing partner "Queen Maren."
Teasing more sneak peek at the concert, Miley also posted her cover of Cher's chart-topping 1998 song "Believe". At the beginning of the clip, the pop star could be heard shouting, "Happy Pride everybody!" Her caption read, "IS IT EVEN A PRIDE SPECIAL IF YOU DONT PLAY @cher ?! THE ANSWER IS NO! #BELIEVE ME THIS SHOW IS GONNA BE EVERYTHING! DONT MISS IT JUNE 25 ON @peacocktv #mileypridespecial."

In another post, Miley shared a glimpse of the moment the audience sang her "We Can't Stop" anthem. Along with the touching clip, she wrote in the caption, "This feels like a peaceful protest. There are laws endangering the lgbtq+ community all around the country and even here in my home state."
"We can't stop and we won't stop doing everything in our power to create the changes we want to see not just here but AROUND THE WORLD! You've gotta start somewhere!" she continued. Aside from "We Can't Stop", she also sang Pat Benatar's "We Belong" with duo Brothers Osborne, as well as Cyndi Lauper and Madonna hits, according to press notes.
