Miley Cyrus BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Miley Cyrus has commanded headlines this week with both personal and musical revelations, once again proving her ability to shape pop culture while remaining full of surprises. On Friday, Miley released her highly anticipated song Secrets, created as a peace offering for her father Billy Ray Cyrus. The track, a soulful ballad, features none other than Lindsey Buckingham and Mick Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac—a collaboration that some outlets, including Good Morning America, are calling “pure magic.” Miley took to Instagram to say, “This song was written as a peace offering for someone I had lost for a time but always loved…this song is for my dad.” Billy Ray responded with a heartfelt Instagram post, calling it “the best birthday gift a dad could ever ask for,” signaling visible healing in a famously complicated family relationship. The ballad’s backstory—Miley’s yearning for emotional transparency with her father, as she described on Monica Lewinsky’s podcast earlier this year—resonates as long-term biographical significance, marking a public reconciliation following years of family tension after her parents’ divorce.
The song’s release coincides with the drop of the deluxe edition of Miley’s chart-topping album Something Beautiful, as announced by Variety and widely teased on Miley’s social media all week. The expanded album, out Friday, includes 13 tracks from the original record and two fresh collaborations: Secrets, and a sprawling psychedelic duet with David Byrne of Talking Heads titled Lockdown. Fans have speculated about a studio project between Miley and Byrne ever since their explosive NBC New Year’s Eve collaboration in 2022—now that speculation is fact. These two tracks expand Miley’s genre-blending legacy, with her characteristic mix of pop, jazz, disco, and RnB.
The past months cemented Miley’s critical high: Something Beautiful debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200, drew raves for its visual album premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival, and inspired intimate performances at Chateau Marmont and Maxim’s de Paris. In recent interviews, including a candid NPR conversation, Miley reflected on 20 years in the spotlight, emphasizing her embrace of artistic inconsistency and family healing in her thirties. And public curiosity about her relationship with Billy Ray was met with Miley’s statement on Instagram—family, she insists, is now her priority, bridges rebuilt and peace achieved.
This week’s major Miley headlines all echo with a sense of reconciliation and creative expansion: star power both rooted at home and aiming ever higher.
