Miley Cyrus Calls Burnt House ‘Biggest Blessing'
The loss of a home is devastating. Yet, losing her Malibu house during the 2018 Woosley Fire became a turning point for Miley Cyrus. It marked a moment of devastation that eventually sparked renewal and gratitude within the artist.
The Grammy-winner offered a candid reflection on the tragedy during an intimate event in New York City on May 6. She was previewing her upcoming 'Something Beautiful' visual album at the event that involved a Q&A hosted by Spotify at Metrograph.
According to PEOPLE, Cyrus recalled, 'Losing everything and being able to rebuild, and to be able to be purposeful and choose every piece that I'm gonna collect or also just about the people in my life.' She further explained, 'When my house burned down, a lot of my relationships also burned down, and that again just led me to such magic and to have so much gratitude.' This was in reference to the house she once shared with her ex-husband Liam Hemsworth.
The pop superstar further reflected on what she would tell her younger self. She advised: 'Appreciate those darker times because, like I said, they are only leading you into the light.' Cyrus tactfully and proudly connected the reflection with her new era that began with 'Something Beautiful.'
Acknowledging how she grew up with her fans since the 'Hannah Montana' and Disney days, she credited the support throughout her life. Cyrus' album preview became a poignant reminder of the tragic loss of her house during the Woosley Fire. She had posted an emotional post through her foundation, sharing a charred sign reading 'LOVE' amid the rubble.
By reconnecting her album with the fire, she explained how the tragedy became a symbol of resilience. This eventually set the stage for 'Something Beautiful' on May 30.

Leonardo DiCaprio admits deep regret over passing on major Hollywood movie
Leonardo DiCaprio may have one of the most celebrated careers in Hollywood – but even the Oscar winner admits he has regrets. During a conversation for Esquire with acclaimed filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson, DiCaprio opened up about the one missed role that still haunts him: the lead in 1997's "Boogie Nights" that ultimately went to Mark Wahlberg. In the interview, Anderson, who directed the film, asked DiCaprio about any regrets he has about his career, and he answered, "I'll say it even though you're here: My biggest regret is not doing 'Boogie Nights.' It was a profound movie of my generation. I can't imagine anyone but Mark [Wahlberg] in it. When I finally got to see that movie, I just thought it was a masterpiece." As he acknowledged the irony of sharing his biggest Hollywood regret with the director behind the film, DiCaprio added, "It's ironic that you're the person asking that question, but it's true." "Boogie Nights" went on to earn critical acclaim and multiple Academy Award nominations, as it launched Wahlberg's acting career and further solidified Anderson's place in the industry. Wahlberg previously reflected on the film's legacy, confessing in 2017 that he hoped "God is a movie fan and also forgiving, because I've made some poor choices in my past. 'Boogie Nights' is up there at the top of the list." He later clarified the comments to People, explaining, "I was sitting in front of a couple of thousand kids talking about and trying to encourage them to come back to their faith, and I was just saying that I just hope He has a sense of humor because I maybe made some decisions that may not be OK with him." The married father of four was additionally asked at the time if he would take on a similar role if offered. Unfortunately for fans of "Boogie Nights," he said that it probably wouldn't make his wife, Rhea Durham, or their kids very happy. Set in the heart of California's San Fernando Valley in 1977, "Boogie Nights" follows Eddie Adams, Wahlberg's character, a teenage busboy whose life takes a dramatic turn when he's discovered by porn director Jack Horner, played by Burt Reynolds. Under Horner's wing, Eddie is reborn as adult film star Dirk Diggler — a character whose rise and fall exposes the dark underbelly of the industry and the price of fame. DiCaprio is gearing up for the release of his film "One Battle After Another," set to be released this September.
