On the same day her date to the MTV Video Music Awards, Jesse Helt, was jailed for six months after violating the terms of his probation in Oregon.

The 22-year-old, who also accepted Miley’s award for video of the year during the ceremony in August, was led away in handcuffs by officers at Polk County Courthouse in Dallas.

On Wednesday, Miley was seen getting into a chauffered car smiling as she prepared to make her way to her Auckland hotel room ahead of her first concert in the city the same evening. 

Miley recently had a haircut, showing off the pixie crop which she debuted on her night out in Hollywood over the weekend.

For her long haul flight she wore comfy converse trainers and carried a couple of pieces of hand luggage.

She covered her eyes with some black cat-eye sunglasses.

Miley has been accompanied by a male friend on her trip Down Under and he was seen getting into the car with her as they made their way to their hotel.

Meanwhile during his hearing back in Dallas, Helt pleaded with Judge Monte Campbell for leniency, telling him he would ‘like to be viewed as a good person, not as a nuisance to society’.

Donning a black suit and with his wavy blond hair slicked back, the convict looked forlorn as he spoke to his attorney, Whitney Boise (hired by Miley), before being escorted out of the courthouse.

Helt, an aspiring model, was arrested on a series of misdemeanor charges – including breaking into an apartment – in his native Oregon in 2010, receiving probation.

But during the following year, he missed meetings with his probation officer, violated his curfew and failed to complete community service after moving to Los Angeles.

During his time in the Californian city, he sought modeling work, toiled at a few low-paying jobs and was homeless from time to time.

Miley, who scooped the VMA award for her song Wrecking Ball, said she met Helt while touring the Hollywood homeless center My Friend’s Place, before later befriending him.

During the awards ceremony, she was seen wiping tears from her eyes as Helt spoke to the audience about homelessness in the U.S. and Los Angeles while host Jimmy Fallon held the microphone.

He also told viewers how they could donate to the homeless center, while Miley’s Facebook page was updated with a video explaining how they could give cash.

Shortly after the ceremony, news of Helt’s previous crimes hit the headlines, prompting the 21-year-old singer to tweet about Helt.

On the same day her date to the MTV Video Music Awards, her homeless pal Jesse Helt, was jailed for six months after violating the terms of his probation in Oregon

Miley, who touched down in Los Angeles on Saturday after completing the South American leg of her Bangerz tour, wrote: ‘People who are homeless have lived very hard lives. Jesse included.’

She later added: ‘I hope that this can be the start of a national conversation about youth homelessness and how to end it.’

On August 29, Helt turned himself in to authorities in his rural community, 60 miles southwest of Portland, after a warrant was issued for his arrest. He was later freed on $2,500 bail.

Last month, he got a rebuke from Judge Campbell after showing up 45 minutes late to a hearing. The judge told him to ‘bring a toothbrush’ if he was tardy to today’s probation violation hearing. 

Far from being late, Helt turned up 20 minutes early to the courthouse. However, it did not win any points with Judge Campbell, who agreed with prosecutor Aaron Felton’s recommendation for six months in jail. Helt will get credit for 57 days previously served.

Mr Boise unsuccessfully asked Judge Campbell to give Helt one more chance to meet the terms of his probation, saying his client grew up in poverty and has never known stability or discipline.
