Miley Cyrus pranks Jimmy Kimmel with 'Wrecking Ball' wake up

May 22 (UPI) -- Miley Cyrus came in like a "Wrecking Ball" to Jimmy Kimmel's bedroom to prank the late night host with a music-filled wake-up call.

The singer, accompanied by a crew of backup dancers dressed like construction workers, sneaked into Kimmel's house with help from his wife Molly McNearney and performed her hit 2013 single inside his bedroom.

A groggy and confused Kimmel looked on as Cyrus jumped on top of his bed with a sledgehammer and fake rocks alongside someone dressed up as a wrecking ball. Cyrus also accidentally hit Kimmel with the sledgehammer below the belt.

The prank is the third time a singer has performed inside Kimmel's bedroom while he was sleeping, following Rihanna in 2015 and Britney Spears in 2016.

"How many times is this gonna happen?" Kimmel asked Cyrus.
