Miley Cyrus BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Miley Cyrus is back in the spotlight this week with a major release that stands out as a deeply personal and career-defining moment. On Friday, she debuted the deluxe edition of her ninth album, Something Beautiful, and made major waves on social media by announcing its special guests: Lindsey Buckingham and Mick Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac, and David Byrne of Talking Heads. Variety reports that the expanded album includes two noteworthy new tracks. The first, Secrets, features Buckingham and Fleetwood and was written for her father, country star Billy Ray Cyrus, as a peace offering after years of estrangement following her parents’ high-profile 2022 divorce—something both Miley and Billy Ray have now openly discussed online. Billy Ray immediately posted an emotional response on Instagram, calling the song “the best birthday gift a dad could ever ask for” and sharing a montage of family memories according to Good Morning America. Miley, for her part, described the track on Instagram as a gesture of forgiveness and healing. In interviews, she’s underlined that reaching out to her father is part of a larger reconciliation: “Now, in my thirties, family is my priority above all else. I’m at peace knowing bridges have been built and time has done a lot of healing.” Media outlets like NPR and WRGC have highlighted the significance of this reconciliation and the superstar line-up for the deluxe release, which also includes Lockdown, a sprawling 13-minute psychedelic collaboration with David Byrne that Miley says is a love letter to one of her musical idols.
Social media has been buzzing about the album, especially after Miley previewed Secrets on Instagram earlier this week and teased new music to her nearly 200 million followers. She’s also been candid in the press about her ongoing search for identity: in a recent interview for NPR’s Morning Edition, Miley reflected on embracing her creative unpredictability and artistic shifts, saying, “I’ve just never really been a super consistent person... That has led to constant musical discovery for me.” Reviewers at outlets like Numéro have praised the deluxe album’s ambitious stylistic mashup—citing influences from Pink Floyd, David Bowie, and pop’s biggest chameleons—while noting that Miley wears her heart on her sleeve as much as ever. With this release, not only has she mended family rifts in public, but she’s also asserted her status as a genre-blending, Grammy-winning force who continues to reimagine her legacy with each surprise move and headline.
