Miley Cyrus says getting older changed how she sees her parents
For Miley Cyrus, adulthood means seeing her parents not as her mom and dad, but as individuals outside their parent-child relationship. In an interview with The New York Times published on Saturday, the "Flowers" singer spoke about growing up in the public eye and as part of a famous Hollywood family. Rumors of a Cyrus family feud have swirled since her parents, Billy Ray Cyrus and Tish Cyrus-Purcell, finalized their divorce in 2022. When asked if she was still estranged from her father, she told the Times, "No. I think timing is everything." "As I've gotten older, I'm r especting my parents as individuals instead of as parents — because my mom's really loved my dad for her whole life, and I think being married to someone in the music industry and not being a part of it is obviously really hard," Cyrus said. Her parents were married for almost 30 years before they officially called it quits. They previously filed for divorce in 2010 and 2013, but reconciled both times. Her mother married "Prison Break" star Dominic Purcell in 2023. Her father married Australian singer, Firerose, in 2024, but they divorced just seven months later. Since April, he has been in a relationship with Elizabeth Hurley. Cyrus says she's made peace with the fact that her parents have moved on to having relationships with other people. "But now that my mom is so in love with my stepdad, who I completely adore, and now that my dad, I see him finding happiness, too — I can love them both as individuals instead of as a parental pairing," she said. "I'm being an adult about it. At first it's hard, because the little kid in you reacts before the adult in you can go, 'Yes, that's your dad, but that's just another person that deserves to be in his bliss and to be happy.' My child self has caught up," Cyrus added. In the interview, the " Hannah Montana" star also spoke about learning to rely less on her mother. Instead, she now imagines what her mom would do in uncomfortable situations and tries to mirror it. "And now I just go, 'What was it about her that made everything better?' It was safety, because I knew any situation that I didn't feel safe in, my mom would get me out of it or make it better. And so now I just imagine what soothed me about her, and then I do it for myself," she said. Cyrus isn't the only celebrity who has spoken about navigating the changing parent-child relations in their lives. In a 2024 appearance on "Today with Hoda and Jenna," Molly Shannon said parents should see their teens as "regular people" and have more empathy. "Most of the time, they just want to be heard. I try to think of that," Shannon said. A representative for Cyrus did not immediately respond to a request for comment sent by Business Insider outside regular hours.

Best Photos of Marilyn Monroe Over the Years
When people think of Old Hollywood, one of the first images that pops into their head is the legendary starlet Marilyn Monroe. An A-list actress who came from tragic, humble beginnings, Monroe had an unstable home life and grew up in orphanages, leaving them to pursue her starlet dreams as soon as possible. She was discovered working in a factory for World War II and was soon cast in high-profile modeling gigs. Then Hollywood called her name as she set to star in classics like Some Like It Hot, The Seven-Year Itch, and Gentleman Prefer Blondes, to name a few. From playing the 'blonde bombshell' to defining an era of beauty, Marilyn Monroe seemed to be able to do anything she wanted. Sadly, the smiling face many adored on the silver screen was not the reality. Monroe had a hard life, battling extensive mental issues and lost love. It was well known that her mental state was fragile, but she was hailed as a beacon of strength for herself and her friends nonetheless. On Aug. 4, 1962, the world was heartbroken when Monroe was found dead in her bedroom at age 36 from suicide. Ever since then, many have paid homage to the starlet through the art of their own. Most recently, Madonna paid homage to Monroe in a series of controversial photos. To this day, many ask questions about her life and sudden death. But over 60 years after her untimely death, she remains one of the most celebrated actresses in history. Learn more about her turbulent life, career, and romances in the iconic photos below, in honor of what would've been her 99th birthday today. A version of this article was originally published on Nov 2021.

The head of new talent at Fox Studios, Ben Lyon, thought she looked like a Marilyn, and she requested to have the last name Monroe in honor of her grandmother. And despite being a natural brunette, Monroe's agency, Blue Book Modeling Agency, wanted her to bleach her hair to a lighter color. Monroe was quite erratic with showing up for the set, so she would have her own screen-tests at random times. In 1949, Marilyn Monroe was cast in her first leading role in the film, Ladies of the Chorus. Monroe worked tirelessly to earn her iconic role in the film noir, The Asphalt Jungle. Director John Huston said she was amazing at the audition. 'Marilyn didn't get the part because of Johnny [her agent]. She got it because she was damned good.' Before she was discovered, Marilyn Monroe worked factory jobs to help supply forces for World War II. Marilyn Monroe had a strong desire to be taken more seriously as an actress, despite being cast in comedies. Marilyn Monroe frequently consulted with acting coaches, but she had a soft spot for her first one, Natasha Lytess. Marilyn Monroe was very well-read and had over 400 volumes in her library. Monroe frequently spoke in third person, saying things like, 'She wouldn't do this. Marilyn wouldn't say that.' Marilyn Monroe frequently attended A-list movie premieres and always wore lavish gowns. For Gentleman Prefer Blondes, Monroe stole the show with her performances. However, she earned about $18,000, while her male co-stars earned upwards of $150,000. So she insisted on her own dressing room saying, 'I am the blonde, and it is Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.' Marilyn Monroe and Lauren Bacall starred alongside one another in the hit film, How to Marry a Millionaire. Old-Hollywood starlet Betty Grable starred with them as well. Marilyn Monroe frequently traveled around the globe for her work. (Original Caption) Marilyn Monroe is shown in this photo entertaining military troops in Korea. Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio's rollercoaster romance only lasted nine months. They got married spontaneously only a few months into their relationship and then got divorced over their long-term goals. Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio frequented the Stork Club, just like Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. Marilyn once said about her favorite singer. 'Well, my very favorite person, and I love her as a person as well as a singer. I think she's the greatest, and that's Ella Fitzgerald.' They ended up being great friends, and Monroe used her A-list status to help with Fitzgerald's career. Despite her lavish outfits and accessories, Marilyn wasn't a fan of statement pieces. She would wear costume jewelry most of the time. Monroe's most iconic look was when she cheekily stepped onto a grate, having the wind blow up her dress. She shocked audiences with this performance in The Seven Year Itch and it has been considered a legendary scene to this day. Monroe frequently brushed elbows with A-listers like Vivien Leigh and Sir Laurence Olivier. Monroe and her third husband, Arthur Miller, were all smiles at movie premieres of all kinds. But behind the scenes, they had a hard marriage filled with distance, miscarriages, and fighting. Arthur Miller and Marilyn Monroe waited in their car to leave their residence. Monroe and Miller lived in a now-$6.75 million NYC penthouse. Marilyn Monroe left her home in New York to film the iconic film, Some Like It Hot. She took a brief acting break before returning to act in the legendary film. Ronald Reagan actually gave Marilyn Monroe her first big job. Reagan thought sending pictures of pretty factory girls would boost morale, so he got Monroe in some shots! Marilyn was notorious for being late on-set and forgetting her lines, even in her most popular production, Some Like It Hot. Marilyn Monroe and Montgomery Clift starred alongside one another in the hit film, The Misfits. This was Monroe's last feature-length film before her untimely death. Monroe had to undergo an emergency gall bladder operation in 1961, but was in good spirits afterwards. Oscar-nominated actor Don Murray said Monroe hated being in front of the camera. 'I think it was a lack of confidence. For somebody who the camera loved, she was still terrified of going before the camera and broke out in a rash all over her body.' Despite this, the camera undeniably loved her. Something's Got to Give was Marilyn's last performance before her death less than six months later.
