Calvin Harris has shot down rumours of a feud with Miley Cyrus
Fans of the Flowers hitmaker were left confused after Calvin shared a new snippet of his previously teased song Ocean, this time with the vocals of Jessie Reyez, the co-writer of the tune.
The TikTok clip raised alarm bells, as Calvin previously shared a preview of the track with Miley's voice.
One Miley stan commented: 'What happened to the one with Miley?????'
Responding, Calvin insisted: 'Tell her. I do not know."
When another fan asked if the Miley version will ever see the light of day, he replied: 'I'm afraid not.'
The 41-year-old superstar DJ claims it was a mishap on his end that led to Miley no longer appearing on the track.
Asked who was to blame, he said: "Nah it was my bad . . . crossed wires.'
Dispelling speculation the pair had fallen out, he added: 'I love Miley.'
Earlier this year, Calvin returned with his first song since 2018 to feature only his own vocals, Smoke The Pain Away, and his first single since his 2024 collaboration with Ellie Goulding, Free.
As for Miley, the pop star is planning 'something really special' for Hannah Montana's 20th anniversary.
The 32-year-old star shot to fame in the Disney show – which ran for four seasons from 2006 to 2011 – and she revealed she would love to pay tribute to the series with a special celebration next year.
She told SiriusXM's TikTok Radio: 'I want to design something really, really special for it because it really was the beginning of all of this that now sits here today. Without Hannah, there really wouldn't be this kind of… this me.'
The show starred Cyrus as Miley Stewart, a teenage girl living a double life as famous pop singer Hannah Montana and Miley is excited to celebrate the character.
She said: 'It's so crazy to think, too, that I started as a character that I thought was going to be impossible to shed. And now that's something that when I walk into a space, it's looked at as this sense of nostalgia or something that you have from your childhood, but I've now been as kind of integrated into everyone's life as the character itself. So that's exciting to get to celebrate that.'

Mum horrified after finding ‘disturbing' hidden messages in daughter's dress
A mum has issued a warning to parents to 'look at your kids' clothing carefully before you buy them' after she found inappropriate text on her young daughter's dress. Mum Savannah posted on TikTok after she looked more closely at her child's dress, decorated with bunnies, jelly beans, chickens and messages in tiny font. 'One day, when she was napping, I figured I'd take a peek and see what they actually said,' she explained in the clip that now has over 23 million views. She was then appalled by what she saw. One of the shocking lines was: 'Want to have an Easter egg hunt under the covers?' Another with sexually charged language read: 'This coupon entitles you to one free peep show!' 'Let's pretend we're rabbits and do whatever comes naturally,' said another message, as a different one read: 'My tulips (two lips) want to be on your tulips'. The 'weirdest,' according to Savannah, said: 'You've been the best husband and friend a girl could have ever asked for'. 'WTF,' one of the top responses read, reflecting the overall sentiment in the 20,000+ comments. Others asked, 'Where did you get that?' as some described the dress as 'disturbing,' 'nasty,' and 'ew'. 'The world is so perverted now,' said another. However, a few suggested it could have been an innocent mistake. One social media user wrote: 'aww, maybe it was an accident & they accidentally wrote all that.' The brand responds After some internet digging, commenters found out the dress was made by a US small business called Lele & Co. In response, the company took down the item and issued a statement on their website. It read: 'I would like to express my deepest apologies for the inappropriate text found on one of the clothing items sold in my store. This particular piece was a resale item from a vendor, and regrettably, I did not catch the offensive wording before it was listed. 'Please rest assured that this does not align with the values I uphold or support. We are in the process of taking any and all necessary legal actions with the vendor. 'For the record, the item in question has been promptly removed from my website and all social media accounts. All remaining stock was destroyed immediately.' The brand also said they were in contact with Savannah. 'Despite the negative and hateful messages, they will not diminish the passion that founded this company. Lele & Co is facing slander based on unfounded claims. I appreciate everyone's concerns that brought this matter to my attention and allow me the opportunity to address and respond in a respectful manner,' the statement concluded. has reached out to Savannah and Lele & Co. Another clothing item criticised It's not the first time children's clothing has gone viral for seemingly inappropriate content. Last December, a Kmart $8 kids' Christmas T-shirt was criticised, dividing parents. The shirt had 'kinda naughty' printed on it, with 'naughty' in sequins. 'I'm sorry, but what is this and why is it in the kids section?' one Aussie mum said on TikTok. However, some told her it 'Wasn't that deep' and 'Everyone just thinks of things the wrong way these days'. 'There's a lot of hills to die on in relation to kids fashion. This isn't one,' another said.

From Disney to mega-mansions: Jonas Brothers' wild real estate ride
They may be celebrating 20 years of chart-topping hits with their new anniversary tour, but behind the music, the Jonas Brothers have also been quietly building a property empire. From a multimillion-dollar Texas ranch they bought at the height of their Disney fame to record-breaking multimillion-dollar estates in LA's Encino, the brothers' real estate journey mirrors their evolution from teen idols to global superstars. And just as they are hitting the road again, their homes are still making headlines. 2008: The boys' first major investment Fresh off their early Disney fame, the brothers – then aged 21, 19 and 16 – pooled funds, empowering their mum with power of attorney, to purchase a $4.3m (US$2.8m) ranch in Westlake, a suburb of Fort Worth, Texas. The stunning 7,360-sq-ft home, reportedly purchased in 2008, featured six bedrooms, six and a half bathrooms, a music room, theatre, game room, wet bar, outdoor kitchen, gazebo, saltwater pool and sweeping golf-course vistas. They sold the family home in 2015 after nearly a decade of ownership. MORE NEWS Aussie TV stars cash in on property moves Real-life Minecraft castle up for grabs Catherine Zeta-Jones insists owning 4 homes is 'not excessive' Kevin's real estate pivot (and lessons learned) In 2010, Kevin struck out on his own with a $1.85m (US$1.2m) Denville, New Jersey mansion – five bedrooms, marble floors and white-stone facade – shared with his wife Danielle; they sold it in 2014 for $2.6m (US$1.68m). He then launched JonasWerner, a luxury home-building and development firm. He built a Hamptons-style estate in Boonton, New Jersey – complete with a 1,500-bottle wine cellar, cigar lounge, and putting green. After a sale at a minor loss around 2017, he later built and sold another New Jersey home in Montville for a modest profit. Yet real estate wasn't always smooth sailing. MORE NEWS: Snake drama forces costly Swift bathroom repairs In a candid interview earlier this year, Kevin revealed he lost nearly 90 per cent of his wealth during the band's hiatus due to poor property and business ventures. Thankfully, one of his projects eventually netted a $1.54m (US$1m) profit in 2020, and as he reflected, the band's 2019 reunion gave him a much-needed second chance. Recently, Kevin and his wife Danielle sold another New Jersey mansion for $4.2m (US$2.7m), a cool $1.54m (US$1m) gain on their $2.6m (US$1.7m) purchase. The 6,000-sq-ft home overflows with luxe extras: pool house, wine cellar, wraparound bar and four-car garage. The sale came just ahead of the Jonas 20 tour's launch. Nick's style: From Broadway to Beverly Hills Nick's real estate journey shows his bold and stylish approach: In 2012, as a rising Broadway star, he rented a lavish Chelsea, NYC condo with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, six TVs, iPad-controlled lighting, and a 120-inch drop-down movie screen. The home was listed for $35,437 (US$23,000) a month – though it's unclear how much Nick paid during his stay. In 2013, he set down roots in Los Angeles, snapping up a $5m (US$3.2m) Mediterranean home on the Sunset Strip, later profiting slightly by selling it for around $5.2m (US$3.4m). By 2018, newly wed to Priyanka Chopra, Nick snapped up a Beverly Hills Post Office mansion for around $10m (US$6.5m) – which they sold over a year later at a modest gain. The mansion, originally built in 1938, featured a living room with a wood-burning fireplace and rustic wood floors, with a spot for Nick's grand piano. Joe's West Coast adventures: From WeHo to Sherman Oaks Joe bought his first home for $4m (US$2.6m) in May 2014, according to Architectural Digest. The 2,888-square-foot traditional-style mansion in West Hollywood was originally built in 1923, and still retained much of its charm, but with modern upgrades like stainless steel appliances and white subway-tile backsplashes in the kitchen and marble-topped vanities in the bathrooms. However, Joe changed his tune on the place less than a year later, selling it for $4.5m (US$2.9m). He subsequently decided to rent, staying at a $61,630 (US$40,000) a-month Airbnb in the Hollywood Hills area. In February 2016, Joe reportedly gave up the renter lifestyle and spent $5.7m (US$3.7m) on a brand-new modern farmhouse in Sherman Oaks. The 5,600-square-foot home, known as The Sutton House, included four bedrooms and six bathrooms. The singer put the farmhouse back on the market in August 2018, and it sold for $5.7m (US$3.7m) in early 2019 – the same year Joe and now ex-wife Sophie Turner bought a neighbouring 15,000-sq-ft home for $21.7m (US$14.1m), loaded with ten bedrooms, 14 baths, a wine cellar, home theatre, gym, and office – constructed of wood and stone for bespoke elegance. The couple sold the mansion in 2021 for $23.4m (US$15.2m) – making a tidy profit. It marked one of the priciest home sales in the San Fernando Valley that year. The record-breaking Encino estate The trio's most headline-grabbing property moves came in 2019 when Nick and Priyanka paid a record $30.8m (US$20m) for a 20,000-sq-ft Encino, California estate. The home is grand in every sense of the word, with a double-height entry hall with wood-panelled ceiling, a glass-lined mezzanine that overlooks the entryway, and a living room with a floor-to-ceiling marble fireplace. The couple worked together to join their aesthetics, and Nick told Architectural Digest at the time that he felt 'really lucky' that he had 'found someone who was totally understanding and accepting of my preferences.' The couple still share the home today.

Mark Hamill thought Star Wars was a Flash Gordon parody after reading script
Mark Hamill thought that Star Wars was a parody of Flash Gordon when he first read the script. The 73-year-old actor played Luke Skywalker in the original film A New Hope, released in 1977, but he admits during the first readthrough he was convinced that creator George Lucas had written a spoof, inspired by the 1950s TV series based on the Flash Gordon 1930s comic strip. Mark went to Harrison Ford - who played space smuggler Han Solo, the pilot of the Millennium Falcon in Star Wars - who had worked with Lucas before on American Graffiti for some insight, but his co-star didn't offer a theory, so he then went to George who provided even less clarity on his vision. Discussing Star Wars during an interview on UK TV show This Morning, Hamill said: "The thing is I didn't get the whole script, for the screen test it was only eight pages. I thought, 'Who talks like this?' So I spoke to Harrison and you know what he said? 'Hey kid, let's just get it done.' He was no help at all. "I went to George. I said, 'George this is sort of like a send up of Flash Gordon.' He went, 'Let's just do it and talk about it later.' Translation: let's just do it and never talk about it later. "He's not a director who likes to talk about motivation and backstory. He casts people that are so close to what he wants that he doesn't have to direct us. I was wide-eyed and energetic and all these things." Hamill also didn't expect Luke to be the hero of the film, and was pleasantly surprised when he got the full script and realised Luke - who was originally called Luke Starkiller - was going to be the main protagonist. He added: "When I was filming, Harrison, to me, was a leading man, I just assumed he was the lead character and I was his annoying sidekick. Then I get the movie, and Harrison must be Luke. He was called Luke Starkiller at that time. Then I started reading it and I was like, 'Oh my god, it's from my point of view,' which is really unusual to tell it through a teenager." Hamill admits he made Luke "as juvenile as I could so I could have some growth" but he was disappointed by the name change to Luke Skywalker because he felt his alter ego needed the more macho moniker. He said: "We shot the scene, 'I'm Luke Starkiller I'm here to rescue you.' I came back the next week and said, 'Why are we doing that scene again?' They said, 'Oh, they've changed your name.' I said, 'To what?' They said, 'To Skywalker.' Let's face it Luke could use a little macho-ing up. It sounded like Luke Flyswatter, I hated it." Mark has reprised his role as the Jedi Knight in the two original sequels, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, as well as the three Disney sequels and spin-off TV shows, admits he has nothing but fond memories of making the original - which also starred the late Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia, British screen icon Sir Alec Guinness as Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anthony Daniels as droid C3PO and Peter Cushing as Grand Moff Tarkin. Hamill - who can currently be seen in Mike Flanagan's The Life of Chuck, an adaptation of a Stephen King novella - said: "We had fun, that's for sure. It was really odd, because you were being paid for being in your backyard when you were 10 years old and pretending that you were Zorro or whoever. It was all a blast."
