Miley Cyrus won't be singing Every Rose Has Its Thorn on the American Music Awards (AMAs) tonight, following rumors that Bret Michaels, who originally popularized the song, was previously romantically involved with Miley's mother Trish.

According to TMZ, sources connected to AMAs production said that Miley Cyrus changed her mind about performing the song just days ago. The rundown for the awards show changed last Thursday, including the song list featuring Bret Michael's song.

Miley Cyrus has reportedly considered Every Rose Has Its Thorn. However, she eventually chose to perform Love and Forgiveness two weeks ago. While Miley is yet to comment on her change of song, her decision follows reports of the affair between Bret Michaels and her mother. Michaels has since issued a denial to the the rumours.

Miley Cyrus' parent Billy Ray and Trish Cyrus had sought divorce late last month. The estranged couple cited "irreconcilable differences" according to the papers filed in a Tennessee court.
