Miley Cyrus admitted to intensive care unit after contracting 'brutal' infection
Miley Cyrus was admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) after contracting "brutal" infection which caused her leg to "disintegrate". The 32-year-old pop star has revealed she suffered a terrifying health scare in November and was taken to hospital in secret to treat an infection which was impacting her kneecap - and Miley is convinced she picked up the nasty bug weeks earlier when she was filmed rolling around on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles for the video for her song 'Something Beautiful'. During an appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!', Miley explained: "I filmed this video in October, and by November at Thanksgiving, I was put in the ICU for a moment - just for a moment ... My leg began to disintegrate around the kneecap area." She went on to add: "The doctor goes: 'Do you have any idea why you would have such a brutal infection on your kneecap?' And I just saw myself [rolling around on the Walk of Fame] and I had to tell him. "To have a surgeon look at you and say, 'Yuck' … Like, they open up cadavers, they see inside the gut of humans, and they're looking at me telling me I'm disgusting." It comes after Miley opened up about another "medical emergency" which happened while she was working on her 2023 New Year's Eve special, which she hosted with her Godmother Dolly Parton and featured her performing with stars including Sia and Paris Hilton. During an interview with Apple Music's Zane Lowe, Miley revealed she suffered an ovarian cyst rupture and was left in agony, but she went ahead with the show despite the pain. She explained: "I had a pretty traumatic experience on a show that I was doing with [TV producer] Lorne [Michaels] when I was doing my New Year's show. I had a medical emergency. I had an ovarian cyst rupture, which we didn't know exactly what was going on, so we did [the show], but it was pretty traumatic, cause it was extremely excruciating. And I did the show anyway, but it was really, really hard on me.' Miley went on to admit she almost quit music because of the experience, but former 'Saturday Night Live' boss Lorne Michaels helped her feel better. She added: "I had dinner with Lorne [Michaels] and he said something that now has stuck with me. He goes, "Six months. Everybody has six months to feel sorry for themselves. And then we start to rebuild'. I was expired on my amount of time that I was able to shut down.'

Miley Cyrus Says Dad Billy Ray Is 'Finding Happiness' in His New Relationship With Elizabeth Hurley
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." Miley Cyrus is leaving the family drama behind her, or at least she's trying to. The singer has been in promo mode as she celebrates the release of her new album Something Beautiful, and during a recent stop by The New York Times' The Interview podcast, Miley opened up about her relationship with her dad and even addressed Billy Ray's relationship with Elizabeth Hurley. Speaking about her sometimes complex relationship with her parents, Miley said that she 'took on some of [her] mom's hurt' when Tish Cyrus and Billy Ray divorced in 2022, which led to her estrangement form her father. Miley didn't even thank Billy Ray in her Grammys accptence speech, fueling more rumors of a Cyrus family feud. But now that her mom is married to actor Dominic Purcell and Billy Ray is dating Elizabeth, Miley says she feels like her 'adult self has caught up.' She continued, 'My mom is like so in love with my stepdad Dom, who I also just completely adore. And now that my dad, I see him finding happiness outside of that too, I can love them both as individuals instead of as a kind of, you know, a parental pairing.' 'At first, it's hard,' Miley said of seeing her parents back in the dating pool. 'The little kid in you reacts before the adult in you and go, 'Yes, that's your dad, but that's just another person that deserves to be in his bliss and be happy.'' This show of public support comes about a month after Miley commented on the family feud and announced that she and her father had reconciled. 'My dad and I have had our challenges over the years. 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,' she wrote on her Instagram Stories. Billy hasn't commented on his renewed family relationships, but he has been very public with his new love. Elizabeth and Billy Ray hard launched their on Instagram six weeks ago with an Easter post featuring Billy Ray wearing green bunny ears and kissing Elizabeth on the cheek, and they've been posting about each other ever since. No word on whether or not Miley's hung out with them yet, though.

Miley Cyrus Sets The Record Straight On Her Estrangement With Dad Billy Ray Cyrus
Miley Cyrus and Billy Ray Cyrus are back on better terms. The singer opened up about her strained relationship with her father in a vulnerable sit-down with The New York Times 'The Interview' podcast. Interviewer Lulu Garcia-Navarro asked Cyrus if she was still estranged from her dad, to which she said 'no.' 'I think timing is everything,' the 32-year-old said. 'As I've gotten older, I'm respecting my parents as individuals instead of as parents — because my mom 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.' The 'Flowers' singer said she thought she 'took on some of my mom's hurt as my own because it hurt her more than it hurt me as an adult, and so I owned a lot of her pain.' Now that both of her parents are with other people, Cyrus said that she 'can love them both as individuals instead of as a parental pairing.' 'I'm being an adult about it,' she said. '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.' Speculation swirled that Cyrus and her 'Achy Breaky Heart' father were on strained terms after her siblings appeared to take sides following their parents' 2022 divorce. Cyrus previously denied being estranged from her father in an interview with David Letterman last year, in which she spoke about Billy Ray's 'narcissism' and said she was mostly raised by her mother. During the sit-down, Letterman said, 'There's not estrangement here with your father, it's just, kinda, the way things are played?' 'Yeah,' Cyrus said at the time. 'I think, what is so beautiful is that my parents ― they served their children, and I know this. My parents served us and sacrificed so much for us. Anything we dreamed of, they made possible.' Despite Cyrus' denial of a rift with her father, the singer seemed to purposefully leave her father out of her acceptance speech when she won her first Grammy in early 2024. She thanked her mom, sister Brandi Cyrus and her boyfriend, Maxx Morando ― seemingly leaving out her other siblings and father on purpose as she shouted out: '...all the people that we love! I don't think I've forgotten anyone.' To add to the speculation, Miley Cyrus and two of her siblings attended their mom Tish's wedding to 'Prison Break' actor Dominic Purcell in 2023. Notably absent were Cyrus' two siblings ― Braison and Noah Cyrus, the latter of whom was photographed wearing a Billy Ray Cyrus shirt over Tish's wedding weekend.

Netflix announces premiere dates for Affleck and Damon crime thriller, ‘Stranger Things' final season
Advertisement Meanwhile, the final season of 'Stranger Things' comes out in three installments, starting with four episodes on Nov. 26 (that's the day before Thanksgiving, in case you were wondering), followed by three episodes on Christmas, and a finale that will pop up on New Year's Eve. Each episode drops at 8 p.m., so prepare accordingly. You can also expect a time jump — given the relentless march of time and the young cast, it was no longer exactly believable that any of these folks were pre-teens. Season 5 will begin a year after the events of season 4. The streamer has also released Advertisement Winona Ryder as Joyce Byers in "Stranger Things." Courtesy of Netflix The series, created by brothers Matt and Ross Duffer, first premiered in 2016. The show was a deliberate homage to '80s movies, with its suburban setting and latchkey kids getting into trouble while simultaneously juggling the challenges of school and puberty. Its world has slowly expanded over the years, although in some ways it sounds like they're getting back to their core storytelling in the final season: Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) has gone into hiding, and everyone is anxious at the approaching anniversary of Will's (Noah Schnapp) abduction. Expect the usual '80s haircuts and clothing choices, and let's continue to be grateful that the show has brought about a bit of a Winona Ryder renaissance.
