Ex-gf Miley Cyrus still ‘into' Nick Jonas? Singer confesses years after their break-up
Teen love stories may fade, but some memories never do—especially when they've been immortalised by pop culture. Miley Cyrus, who skyrocketed to fame with Hannah Montana, has stirred nostalgic waves among fans with her latest comments on ex-boyfriend Nick Jonas. Speaking on the June 6 episode of the Every Single Album podcast, the 7 Things singer shared that any drama from their whirlwind teenage romance is firmly in the past. 'I like Nick, I'm into him,' Cyrus said candidly. 'He's married with children. We're all moving on. Everything is good in the world.' The 32-year-old even gave a nod to the once-iconic couple nickname, adding, 'Niley for life.' A look at Miley Cyrus and Nick Jonas' relationship According to E! Online, Miley Cyrus and Nick Jonas first crossed paths in June 2006 at a charity event and began dating shortly after. Their relationship lasted about a year before ending in late 2007. The breakup deeply affected Cyrus, and in her autobiography, Miles to Go, she described going through an emotional low, saying she cried constantly, felt lost, and even changed her appearance by dyeing her hair black as a reflection of her state of mind.

The Jonas Brothers opened for Cyrus on her Best of Both Worlds tour in 2007 and even guest-starred on Hannah Montana. The two also collaborated musically on tracks like 'We Got the Party' and 'Before the Storm.' Since then, both stars have taken vastly different paths. Cyrus went on to date Justin Gaston and later married and divorced The Hunger Games actor Liam Hemsworth. Jonas, on the other hand, met global icon Priyanka Chopra at the Vanity Fair Oscars after-party in 2017. They tied the knot in 2018 and welcomed daughter Malti Marie in 2022.

Miley Cyrus Reveals Disney Banned Her from Performing ‘Hannah Montana' Songs After End of Show: 'I Wasn't Allowed To Sing Them'
Yara Sameh Miley Cyrus is opening up about her music career after she left Disney following her run on the 2006 hit sitcom "Hannah Montana." In a new interview, Cyrus explained why she had not performed the songs she popularized on the Disney Channel series, such as 'Best of Both Worlds.' 'After I left Disney, I wasn't allowed to perform any of the Hannah Montana music,' she said on Spotify's The Ringer podcast. 'It's not like I wanted to, I mean performing 'The Best Of Both Worlds' between 'We Can't Stop' and 'Wrecking Ball,' wouldn't have really made sense," Cyrus continued. 'It was still sad knowing those songs have my voice, my face, and I wasn't allowed to sing them.' However, when the superstar was honored as a Disney Legend in 2024, things changed and she was permitted to perform those songs again. 'After being inducted as a Disney Legend, I was given permission to perform those songs in the future, which is pretty cool,' she added. Following her run as the star of Hannah Montana, Cyrus looked to reinvent her image and caused uproar in a series of performances and public appearances. In 2013, she performed at the MTV Video Music Awards, where she twerked on Robin Thicke during the performance of 'Blurred Lines.' During her acceptance speech of the Disney Legend honor, she apologized to Mickey Mouse for her 'malfunction' era, saying, 'I definitely wasn't created in a lab and if I was there must've been a bug in the system which caused me to malfunction somewhere between the years of 2013 and '16.

4x WNBA Champion Names Hardest Part About Playing Under Geno Auriemma
So many of the WNBA's best and iconic players came up and refined their games through the tutelage of head coach Geno Auriemma and the UConn Huskies. The Big East powerhouse has won 12 NCAA tournament titles, the most in the sport. More impressively, all of those national championships have come since 1995. One of the best players for the Huskies was Sue Bird, who played for UConn from 1998 to 2002. The 44-year-old icon won two national championships (2000 & 2002) and four WNBA titles (2004, 2010, 2018 and 2020). Advertisement Bird, a 13-time WNBA All-Star and five-time Olympic gold medal winner, sat down for an episode of "Best of Both Worlds," a podcast hosted by Flau'jae Johnson of the LSU Tigers, to discuss her playing career in college and the WNBA. Sue Bird, fiance of United States forward Megan Rapinoe (not pictured) looks on before the game between the United States and South Africa at Soldier Durr-USA TODAY Sports Bird was asked about the mental side of being a player and learning to accept criticism and coaching from Auriemma, who is known for his fiercely competitive nature. "Practices in college were harder than any game we had," recalled Bird." That margin of error. (Auriemma) throws adult tantrums if you miss a lay-up. You're going to miss shots, you're going to miss shots. But that reaction forces you to tighten up, to focus more. Advertisement "It's a work in progress. It takes time, it takes years, it takes maturity. You figure out, if I can beat him in this practice, I can go out in any game or any stage; nothing's going to faze me. Once you believe that, you get excited to go to practice. Johnson is coming off her junior season at LSU. Last year, she averaged 18.6 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.7 steals. The Tigers finished 31-6 and reached the Elite 8 before losing to the UCLA Bruins, who would go on to win the national championship. On April 23, Johnson announced she would return to LSU for her senior season. The Tigers are ranked No. 5 in ESPN's way-too-early rankings released last week. After her 2002 season with the Huskies, Bird was the Naismith and AP College Player of the Year. The Seattle Storm selected her with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2002 WNBA Draft. Advertisement Bird has been engaged to Megan Rapinoe, the decorated women's soccer star, since October 2020.

Flau'Jae Johnson puts rap and podcasting careers aside during March Madness
SPOKANE, Wash. — For now, LSU star guard Flau'Jae Johnson is putting her rap career aside. And the podcasting, too. Johnson is all about the NCAA Tournament, and helping the Tigers win another national title. 'I'm not focused on my music, I'm not focused on my podcast, I'm not focused on none of (that) stuff. I'm focused on winning the national championship,' Johnson said. 'Because if I won the national championship, then I can focus on everything I want to.' That doesn't mean that Johnson's off-court talents aren't on display during March Madness. She raps on a Powerade ad campaign that has been shown often throughout the tournament. Johnson has been a music star since appearing on 'America's Got Talent' in 2018 when she advanced to the quarterfinals of the television competition. She released her first album, 'Best of Both Worlds,' last year. She's also collaborated on a song with rapper Lil Wayne. Johnson has said that she launched her music career in honor of her father, the late rapper Camoflauge. Johnson also has a podcast, also called 'Best of Both Worlds,' where she interviews some of the biggest stars of the game — including episodes with USC's JuJu Watkins and UConn's Paige Bueckers — and just generally dishes on a range of topics from basketball to boyfriends. Johnson and the Tigers got past N.C. State 80-73 to advance to the Elite Eight for the third consecutive year, facing top-seeded UCLA on Sunday. The teams met in last year's NCAA Tournament, where Bruins head coach Cori Close watched first-hand as Johnson went 7 for 11 from the field and dropped a 24-point, 12-rebound double-double. While Close respects the guard's ability with a basketball, she's also complimented what Johnson's brand does for the sport. 'Talk about someone who's been great for the game. I just really admire how she's juggled all the different things that she does in life, let alone on the court,' Close said. 'I'm a big pioneer — try to be, of growing the game, and I look to her. She's doing a great job, and I just want to compliment her for that, our game is better off for it.' Johnson has said she's unperturbed by pressure situations, drawing back to her days on 'America's Got Talent.'
