How do you top a concert that packs more fur, feathers and sequins than a Siegfried & Roy show and hilariously suggestive gargantuan props? Let the audience take all the provocation home with them.

The more provocative the better,” says Lisa Katnic, who brought the foam finger and the papers into Cyrus’ repertoire of tricks. “I designed a T-shirt with Miley’s tongue sticking out from between the boobs,” she says. “And it’s hand-drawn to look even rawer.” -M.F.
