It was a fittingly intimate moment for the evening, hosted by TikTok, as the fans hand selected by Cyrus's team on the platform got to listen to Something Beautiful in full before Cyrus surprised the attendees with a 45-minute set.
The crowd was made up mainly of fans, but also had a few friends like Anya Taylor-Joy. The crowd piled into the Chateau at 6 p.m., with most expecting just to listen to the album a few days early before its wide release this Friday. But by 7 p.m., the chatty room briefly went silent, wondering what was happening next before once again exploding with shouts and applause as Cyrus came out up front with her band.
'You like your style, and you love mine,' Cyrus quipped, glammed out in a shimmering silver old Hollywood-style dress as she started with Something Beautiful track 'More to Lose.' She then played latest single 'Easy Lover' before belting last year's smash hit 'Flowers,' telling the crowd she hopes all of her upcoming album's songs 'touch people the way this song has.'
Cyrus, flanked pianist Michal Pollack, drummer Maxx Morando and guitarist Jonathan Rado, was loose and comfortable around her fans, opining between songs about growing up together and how the fans In the room have stuck with her through the many changes in her sound and personal life since her days as a teen idol as Hannah Montana nearly 20 years ago.
'We really did grow up together, that's why it's so emotional for all of us, we've been on this journey together,' Cyrus said. 'We start to even outgrow ourselves, there's things we gain but things we also leave behind. And I've never wanted that to be you. I've never wanted that to be my fans, everyone I grew up with. As I started to go deeper on my own personal journey, it's always been my hope and vision that you all would come with me. It's always greatly appreciated when you do, and you always do.'
Talking about that growth and the 'different species' of butterflies she gets in the room with her fans, she then went into an impromptu performance of 'The Climb,' joking that she 'wasn't going to perform' the song before fans goaded her. She finished up with 'End of the World.'
During her set, Cyrus had talked about making Something Beautiful, which will also have an accompanying film, over the past couple years amid the Endless Summer Vacation era, joking that 'I wasn't on vacation, I was making the next album.'
'The next time you're spamming the comments, just know I'm busy in my bikini,' she said.
Cyrus walked fans through the concept of Something Beautiful, telling the crowd 'it's about taking these experiences, even when they're painful or we want to throw them away because they're just too much to bear, and wrapping them in beautiful bows and ribbons and appreciating all these gifts and experiences that we can't understand how they're going to serve us later in our life.'
While she's days away from the Something Beautiful era even coming into full swing, before she finished up the night with 'End of the World,' Cyrus teased even more music, readying fans to come along for that ride too.
'My next album is about to be extremely experimental, so have fun with that,' she said as her fans cheered her on. 'Something Beautiful is just the appetizer.'

Woman Finds Grave in Backyard After Moving In, Then Photos Reveal The Truth
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A new homeowner discovered what appeared to be a grave in her new yard and always wondered who it belonged to—then one day she found heartbreaking photographs which revealed all. Krystal Castillo, 33, is from Miami, Florida, and moved into a new house in 2024. Before too long, when exploring her backyard, she found a pet's grave marker, engraved with the name Honey. As she told Newsweek: "I had only seen the [grave] stone, and this gave me a glimpse into what she looked like and how loved she was." Months later, Castillo found photographs hidden in their home, saying: "The photos were found in a closet on a dusty top shelf, where a few miscellaneous items were left behind like screws and old manuals." She shared a video to her TikTok account @elsieandkrystal on March 30, first showing the grave marker alongside the words: "Found this in our backyard when we moved in and wondered what she must have been like and how loved she must have been."

TikTok @elsieandkrystal The clip then switched to show the newly-found photographs, all of them showing a Collie relaxing in the home Castillo now lived in. And by the dog's side in every photo was a Beanie Baby of—just like Honey—a Collie dog. Collies, also known as Rough Collies, are best-known as the breed from the iconic 'Lassie' series. They are described as devoted to their families, proud and graceful, and excellent with young children, according to the American Kennel Club (AKC). While it's known how old Honey was when she passed, the AKC says the breed has a lifespan of between 12 to 14 years. Castillo told Newsweek: "It broke my heart when I found them, because I always wondered what Honey must have been like." She said it was obvious the dog was a much-loved member of the family, pointing out how the owners had "bought her a Beanie Baby that looked like her." TikTok users were hugely moved by the story, awarding the video more than 100,000 views. Photographs of the Collie, which Castillo found on a top shelf in her new home.

TikTok @elsieandkrystal One emotional commenter wrote: "This is why I cremated my soul boy, I couldn't bare leaving him behind if I loved [sic]," as another declared: "RIP to all the pets that had to be left behind when their houses were sold." "That is why I started cremating my babies; I've left a few behind and couldn't do it anymore," another admitted as well, adding: "Thank you for keeping her memory safe." Others shared their own stories, as one commenter wrote: "My farm has a pet cemetery from the previous owners. They lived here 30 years and had a few dogs who now rest here forever. I tend to the cemetery with love and my heart dog now rests beside them." Reacting to the major response to her video, Castillo told Newsweek: "I find it so heartwarming that so many people have found a connection to the video as dog lovers."

Local Experts Share Top 5 Tips to Navigate the Mortgage Process for First-Time Homebuyers
'Just remember, a week before the close of escrow, don't buy a boat that has a $30,000 loan on it.'— Paul Scheper ORANGE COUNTY, CA, UNITED STATES, June 1, 2025 / / -- Buying a first home marks a significant life milestone, but the mortgage process can often feel overwhelming—particularly for those new to the real estate market. To provide clarity and boost the likelihood of loan approval, local mortgage and real estate experts have outlined five essential tips for prospective homebuyers preparing to apply for a mortgage. These recommendations are designed to help buyers enter today's competitive housing landscape with confidence and financial preparedness. 1. Strengthen Credit Scores Prior to Application Credit scores play a pivotal role in determining mortgage interest rates and loan terms. Even minor improvements can lead to substantial savings over time. 'An improved credit score of only 20 points can go a long way and save homeowners thousands of dollars over a 5-year period,' said Paul Scheper, President of Loangevity Mortgage in Orange County, CA. Recommended actions include reviewing credit reports, paying off existing debts, and avoiding new credit inquiries in the months before applying. 2. Build a Robust Down Payment and Account for Closing Costs While certain loan programs allow for down payments as low as 3%, a larger upfront payment can reduce monthly costs and eliminate the need for private mortgage insurance (PMI). Closing costs—typically 1–2% of the purchase price—should also be factored into financial planning. 3. Obtain Pre-Approval Before Beginning the Home Search Securing a mortgage pre-approval demonstrates financial readiness to sellers and strengthens a buyer's position in competitive situations. 'Sellers don't want to tie up a property for tire-kickers. A pre-approval letter and proof of funds show the seller that the buyer means business,' said Sarah Scheper, a leading Orange County real estate agent. The pre-approval process involves a comprehensive review of income, credit history, and financial documentation. 4. Evaluate All Loan Program Options First-time buyers are encouraged to explore a range of loan programs—including FHA, VA, and USDA options—to identify the most favorable terms. 'The key is to match the right buyer with the right loan, with the right payment, and the right down payment—it has to mesh perfectly,' explained Paul Scheper. Working with a mortgage advisor can help ensure the selection of a product aligned with long-term financial goals. 5. Maintain Financial Stability During the Application Process Major financial changes during the loan process can negatively impact approval chances. 'Buyers should avoid making large purchases, opening new credit lines, or changing jobs. These actions could impact debt-to-income ratios, credit scores, and, ultimately, loan eligibility,' advised veteran loan processor and underwriter Alyson McCreery. Paul Scheper added, 'Just remember, a week before the close of escrow, don't buy a boat that has a $30,000 loan on it.' The Importance of a Real Estate 'Dream Team' Assembling a team of experienced professionals—including real estate agents, lenders, processors, and title experts—can significantly improve the homebuying experience. 'Buyers need to be part of a dream team comprised of a great realtor, lender, processor, investor, and title and escrow company. T.E.A.M. stands for Together Everybody Achieves More,' said Sarah Scheper. About Paul Scheper Paul Scheper is a licensed mortgage broker with decades of experience in real estate finance.
