Miley Cyrus says half of Plastic Hearts was a ‘trauma response'
Pop star Miley Cyrus has opened up about deep regrets over her writing contributions to the 2020 album Plastic Hearts, describing many tracks as a 'trauma response' to personal upheaval. In a candid appearance on the Every Single Album podcast, Cyrus admitted she now looks back with remorse on roughly half the songs she wrote for the album. She explained that during a turbulent period surrounding relationship breakdowns and nearly losing sobriety, she defaulted to writing emotionally charged music instead of seeking healing. The songwriter confessed: 'I had to fall one more time,' acknowledging that Plastic Hearts emerged from a place of unresolved trauma. Fans on social media quickly echoed the sentiment. One commentator on X noted, 'If she wrote it during a dark time… I can respect that she regrets it,' while another stressed that the emotional rawness shaped Cyrus's evolution. The album, released November 27, 2020, marked Cyrus's turn toward rock, synth-pop, and glam styles—a departure fueled in part by personal crisis. While Plastic Hearts was both critically praised and commercially successful, Cyrus's revelations underscore the internal cost of authenticity in art. Industry analysts say this admission could deepen fan appreciation, reinforcing her image as a genuine artist unafraid to revisit and critique her past work. It also adds to the broader discussion of what defines growth and healing in the public eye. As Cyrus promotes new music and embraces renewed creativity, her reflections on Plastic Hearts serve as a potent reminder that fame and trauma often collide in the creative process.

Shocking Celebrity Interview Revelations June 15 2025
Brenda Song was dropped by her agent for taking a role in The Social Network. "I was like, 'David Fincher is one of my favorite directors of all time,'" Brenda said in a conversation captured by The Wrap. "They're like, 'It's two scenes,' but I'm like, 'This is what I really wanted.' And my agents dropped me over this decision." Bryce Dallas Howard alleges Lars Von Trier threw a glass of water in her face and insulted her father, director Ron Howard, on the set of Dogville. "That was my introduction to the Lars von Trier experience, but it wasn't like I went to my room and cried or anything," she told the Sunday Times. "I was sort of delighted by it." Miley Cyrus said that she and Liam Hemsworth initially broke up in 2012 because of her "sexualized" public image. 'Liam was also a part of other big franchises like The Hunger Games, and his brother is a Marvel superhero. And so I was also representing the family,' she said on the Every Single Album podcast. 'And so I felt like I needed to, and I, you know, it was my duty, too, because my plan was this time, I didn't want the relationship to fall apart. I wanted it to stay intact. And the reason why it didn't work during Bangerz was because of that.' Billie Eilish's brother FINNEAS was tear-gassed during the L.A. protests. 'Tear gassed almost immediately at the very peaceful protest downtown," he wrote on his IG Story at the time. "They're inciting this.' Justin Bieber's former manager Scooter Braun said that their relationship is "not the same" as it used to be. 'At that point, it had been a couple of years where I knew I wanted to do something else, and I wanted to find out who I was,' he said about the split during an episode of the Diary of a CEO podcast. 'We were both communicating enough with each other… The writing was on the wall.' Sydney Sweney gained 30 pounds for her upcoming film role portraying boxer Christy Martin. 'I didn't fit in any of my clothes. I'm usually a size 23 in jeans, and I was wearing a size 27,' she told W Magazine. 'My boobs got bigger. And my butt got huge. It was crazy! I was like, Oh my god… I was so strong, like crazy strong.' Sarah Jessica Parker said she doesn't take pictures with fans. "I was just at the airport on Friday," she told Howard Stern. "A woman came up to me and she didn't say hello. She just said, 'Can I take your picture?' and I said, 'We didn't even meet. You didn't even introduce yourself. What's your name?'" Ryan Phillippe's daughter Ava Phillippe admitted that her boyfriend kinda looks like her dad. "You guys… whaaaaattt," she replied to a TikTok comment pointing out the resemblance. OK then! Candace Cameron Bure claimed that scary movies are a "portal" to "something demonic." "You're opening up a portal," she said on her own podcast. "Like, if you're watching this, or you're playing this video game, or whatever, that's a portal that could let stuff inside our home." Influencer Nara Smith revealed that she's pregnant with her fourth child — before she's even turned 24. "No, I'm not having this many kids because I'm Mormon," Nara explained on TikTok. "I'm not Mormon. I just always wanted to be a young mom and do everything while I was really young. And I think that's just a personal preference for me." Keke Palmer admitted that her child's name is essentially made up. "That was him trying to put like Darius and Lauren — like Leodis," she said during a House Guest appearance about her ex-partner Darius Jackson choosing the name. "Like, it was just too much, but I said, 'Hey, let's do it. It's adorable.' I was pregnant, anything went." And finally, Kim Cattrall passed on Sex and the City four times before accepting the role of Samantha Jones. '40 became sexy,' she told the Times of London, after revealing she passed on the role because of "self-inflected became, 'Man, let's have more of that.''

Miley Cyrus Shares How She Hid Drug Expenses As ‘Vintage Clothes' From Her Accountant
Last Updated: Miley Cyrus discussed her past drug use and the chaos of her 2015 album on the Every Single Album podcast. Miley Cyrus is well-versed in the art of reinvention. From her days as a Disney Channel star to becoming a chart-topping artist, the 32-year-old has built a career marked by transformation. Recently, on the Every Single Album podcast, Cyrus shared her early experiences with drugs and the turmoil that influenced her 2015 experimental album, Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz. She provided fans with a candid glimpse into what she now considers a chaotic period in her life. 'The drugs were the biggest cost," she confessed. 'Which, to hide those from my accountant, we called them vintage clothes." Cyrus didn't hold back from sharing specifics. 'She [the accountant] would get these checks. That happens on touring all the time," Miley explained. 'And every time she saw me, she'd be like, 'Where's that, like, $15,000 original John Lennon T-shirt that you bought?' And I'd say, 'Oh, it's upstairs.'" The singer continued, 'We just really want to protect it. It's really delicate. The fabric…got to take care of it! So I bought a lot of vintage clothes that year." That 'vintage" wardrobe, of course, was a euphemism for her heavy drug use. Reflecting on her past, Cyrus is filled with gratitude. 'I'm so glad I survived that time in my life," she said. 'I would definitely not encourage anyone else to go this hard, but the fact that I got through it… I'm very glad I got to do it." Since then, the singer has embarked on a journey of sobriety. In a 2017 interview with Billboard, she described herself as 'evolving" after quitting marijuana. She has been sober since 2019, except for a brief relapse during the pandemic. Nowadays, sobriety is non-negotiable: 'That's like my God. I need it," she says. On the professional front, Cyrus recently moved fans with an emotional rendition of The Climb, a nostalgic ballad from Hannah Montana: The Movie (2009) that once defined her Disney era. She also humorously noted how her drummer boyfriend, Maxx Morando, has been eagerly waiting since middle school to perform this song. First Published:

Miley Cyrus is currently riding the wave of her May 30 album release, 'Something Beautiful'. Photo: AP Miley Cyrus is getting candid about her past drug use, including a time when she says she hid tens of thousands of dollars worth of drug purchases from her accountant. The Grammy-winning Flowers singer, 32, confirmed that 'drugs were the biggest cost' of her recording her 2015 self-funded album, Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz . 'To hide those from my accountant, we called them 'vintage clothes,'' she revealed on a recent episode of The Ringer's Every Single Album podcast. 'So she would get these checks for thousands of dollars worth of vintage clothes.' Eventually, her accountant began to wonder where those clothes actually were. 'Every time she saw me, she'd be like, 'Where's that, like, US$15,000 (RM63,537.17) original John Lennon T-shirt that you bought?'' Cyrus recalled. 'I was like, 'Oh, it's upstairs. … We just really want to protect it. It's really delicate.'' Cyrus admitted to buying 'a lot of 'vintage clothes' that year,' saying she's grateful she 'survived' that period of her life. 'I would definitely not encourage anyone else to go this hard, but the fact that I got through it, I'm very glad I got to do it,' she said. The Disney Channel alum has since been vocal about getting sober – first from marijuana in 2017 and then alcohol three years later. She credits sobriety with having 'changed (her) entire life.' Cyrus is currently riding the wave of her May 30 album release, Something Beautiful . This week at the Tribeca Festival, Cyrus debuted the accompanying visual album. – New York Daily News/Tribune News Service
