Miley Cyrus took on mum's 'hurt' after painful Billy Ray divorce
Miley Cyrus has opened up about being caught in the middle of the collapse of the relationship and marriage of her parents, Billy Ray Cyrus and Tish who divorced in 2023 after 30 years together Miley Cyrus has explained why she changed her mind over the difficult relationship her parents Billy Ray Cyrus and Tish Cyrus endured. The 32-year-old singer and actress has said that she can appreciate the lives and actions of her parents differently now that she is an adult. Miley - who divorced her husband, Australian actor Liam Hemsworth, 35, in 2020 after two years of marriage - has claimed she took on some of the pain her mother felt while Tish and Billy Ray struggled in their marriage. Achy Breaky Heart singer Billy Ray and manager Tish tied-the-knot in 1993. The marriage ended in 2023, however, and Miley thinks the music industry may have contributed to the collapse of the romance. It has been documented that the end of the marriage caused a rift within the family, with claims that Miley grew distant from her father. However, the Flowers singer has now reconnected with her dad after years of estrangement, and feels she can look at his past actions through new eyes. In a new interview, the star opened up about her changing thoughts. She told the New York Times:"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." Miley went on to explain how her empathy for her mother led her to "take on" some of her emotions. She said: "[I] 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." The Hannah Montana star went on to explain she has a strong bond with her mum's new husband, the actor Dominic Purcell, and also said she is glad to see her father moving on, too. Billy Ray made headlines in April when it was revealed he had embarked on a romance with Elizabeth Hurley. Miley also explained that she isn't fazed by the fact that her family drama can lead to headlines. She said: "The thing I like about the new way that the world works is that everything is so fast. In the '90s, when something happened in a tabloid, remember how it would happen for a year? Now it's just gone." She explained she has "gotten so used to it that I'm like, 'If this is the symptom -- that sometimes we deal with these embarrassing or difficult public opinions -- then that's something I'm willing to take to have the life that we have.'" Billy Ray and Tish divorced after 30 years in 2023 and went on to find new love, with Tish marrying Dominic that same year. While Billy Ray is said to be happy with British acting icon Elizabeth, he did endure a difficult relationship in the intervening years. He was married to Australian singer Johanna Rose Hodges, who performs under the name Firerose. The pair tied the knot in October 2023 after a year of dating, and had also reportedly known each other for 10 years. Firerose had worked on the set of Hannah Montana, with Billy Ray meeting her through the fact that his daughter was the star of the show. But the marriage collapsed last year, and they filed for divorce in May 2024. The divorce was finalised in August last year.

Miley Cyrus shares what led to Billy Ray Cyrus rift
Miley Cyrus broke her silence about what caused her to become estranged from dad Billy Ray Cyrus as they continue on their road to "healing" their family rift. Weeks after she and Billy Ray Cyrus reunited and shared messages about "healing" following more than a year of family rift rumours, the "Flowers" singer confirmed they were no longer estranged and shed insight into what led to her conflict with him in the first place: her parents' split, according to E! News. "I think timing is everything," said Miley in an interview. "As I've gotten older, I'm respecting my parents as individuals instead of as parents--because my mom's 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," as per the outlet. Cyrus, whose mom Tish Cyrus filed for divorce from Billy Ray in 2022 after nearly 30 years of marriage--continued, "And so I think I 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," as per the outlet. Tish's marriage to her current husband, Dominic Purcell, and Billy Ray's romance with Elizabeth Hurley revealed on social media eight months after he finalised his divorce from Firerose helped Miley work through her feelings and move forward on the road to healing. Live Events "Now that my mom is so in love with my stepdad, who I completely adore, and now that my dad, I see him finding happiness, too--I can love them both as individuals instead of as a parental pairing," the "More to Lose" singer said. "I'm being an adult about it." However, changing her mindset was not easy. "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,'" Miley said. "My child self has caught up," according to E! News. She commented weeks after her dad shared a rare family pic showing the two. "My dad and I have had our challenges over the year," the former star of Hannah Montana wrote on her Instagram Stories. "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. Grateful for the good health and love that flows through my family." Billy Ray shared his statement about mending their rift one day later, on Mother's Day. "I'm so proud of Miley and her guts and her courage... her wisdom and strength to bring it when our family needed it most," the "Achy Breaky Heart" singer wrote on Instagram May 11. "We are so close to a full healing." The 63-year-old continued, "We have all been through a lot. On this Mother's Day I would like to testify to a couple facts. 1) I still very much believe in the power of prayer and respectfully ask if you do also ... and have an extra prayer for the CYRUS Family... I humbly would accept," according to E! News.

Popstar-actress Miley Cyrus tasted major success in her teenage years when she was cast in the title role in the sitcom 'Hannah Montana'. However, she said that she has always had an "understanding" of how the business of celebrity works. "I've known fame since the moment I was born, I've never known anything else so I was really well prepared in a way that really hard to train yourself to know what to expect on everything that fame can bring," the daughter of 'Achy Breaky Heart' hitmaker Billy Ray Cyrus and goddaughter of country legend Dolly Parton told The New York Times 'The Interview' podcast. She added: "But I already had the handbook because they did the same thing to my dad, and to Dolly and to everyone around me. Dolly is a great example of that, so I felt know what I think it is? I understand the business I'm in. I am in the music industry, I'm in the record business. "When I sign a contract, they're buying records that they wish to sell, so I understand that I am setting myself up to become merchandise. I am committing to them that I not only want to bring success to myself, but to them also. So I understand the music industry," said the "Flowers" hitmaker The singer, who has just released her ninth studio album 'Something Beautiful', only received her first Grammy Award in 2024 for her hit song 'Flowers' and had spent years wondering what she had to do to get that sort of recognition but, prior to her win, had decided that the "validation" she craved came from her millions of fans around the globe instead, reports by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo She said: "There were other Disney artists who dominated in those categories. I don't know who else before that, but there was The Jonas Brothers. It was boys, so they didn't have a character to shed, but because I wore a wig and I was a pop star..." "I remember being broken-hearted because The Jonas Brothers got asked to perform with Stevie Wonder, and I never got an opportunity like that as a young girl. "My show had been on air for years before, and I'd had everyone on that show - Dolly Parton, Vicki Lawrence, who taught me so many amazing things, so was actually the greatest blessing that those awards never happened because I was recognised all the time by millions of people. "Their identities were being formed by me. There's a part of them that's a little part of me. I love that people became my reward. People loved me and that feel good. Of course, every year, never having my name called, and I was working so hard." "Not necessarily saying that I deserved it, but I felt like 'What am I not doing?' Where's the math? Because if we're doing the equation, I feel like it equals some sort of validation." Check out our list of the latest Hindi , English , Tamil , Telugu , Malayalam , and Kannada movies .

Miley Cyrus Addresses if ‘Flowers' Dress Is Jennifer Lawrence Diss
Two years and a few Grammys later, finally addressed the theories behind her 'Flowers' music video outfit, the infamous gold dress. Fans believed it was a reference to Jennifer Lawrence's gown from the 2012 'Hunger Games' premiere. The singer, who has openly talked about her healing journey, clarified there's no bitterness between them. Popular belief suggested that the hit track was Cyrus' breakup anthem after her 2020 divorce from Liam Hemsworth, Lawrence's co-star in the film series. Theories claimed that the dress was a dig at the Oscar-winning actor amid rumors of a cheating scandal surrounding her and Hemsworth. Miley Cyrus settled the dust surrounding her 'Flowers' outfit, clarifying that there are no tensions between her and Jennifer Lawrence. Fans had long speculated that the close resemblance between the gold dress Cyrus wore in the initial scenes of her music video was a jab at the actor. These theories surfaced against the background of a rumored cheating scandal between Lawrence and the singer's now-ex-husband, Liam Hemsworth. The two actors have previously starred together in the popular 'Hunger Games' films. Last week, the Grammy winner squashed all rumors, making it clear that the dress was, in fact, not a diss at Lawrence. She was signing autographs before her appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' when entertainment reporter Melanie Miller brought it up. Miller shared a clip of the moment on her TikTok @itsmelaniemiller, as she asked, 'Miley, was your 'Flowers' dress a reference to Jennifer Lawrence?' Cyrus, who appeared bold and stylishly dressed for the talk show, responded, 'No, but I loved that dress of hers.' Besides the gold color, Miley Cyrus and Jennifer Lawrence's outfits had uncanny similarities, including the cutouts. Although the latter's dress had cutouts in the back, Cyrus' look completely bared her toned abs. According to Page Six, Lawrence had also addressed the 'coincidence' while talking to Andy Cohen on his talk show. 'I just assume that was, like, a coincidence,' she told Cohen during a 2023 episode. The star further denied any romantic involvement with Hemsworth, calling it 'not true' and a 'total rumor.' Originally reported by Nikita Mahato on Reality Tea. The post Miley Cyrus Addresses if 'Flowers' Dress Is Jennifer Lawrence Diss appeared first on Mandatory.

Adam Hattaway & The Haunters Release New Single + Video 'Tommy Sees Ghosts'
Just months since the release of their Marlon Williams produced album High Horse, Christchurch's own Adam Hattaway & The Haunters are back with a new single and video, " Tommy Sees Ghosts," accompanied by b-side " Roadside Incident." Recorded to 2' 16-track tape in an old wool-shed deep in the south of Aotearoa, Tommy Sees Ghosts features a haunting and hypnotic groove reminiscent of the band's earlier music, with one foot in the '70s Stones disco ditch, and a refined focus on vocals akin to their recent album. The band rolls along in a late-night, inebriated haze, threatening to go off the rails at all times but sticking together like glue. Inspired by true ghost stories, Adam delves into the tale of Tommy who lives close to the wind, getting up in the middle of the night to wave buenas noches to friends or lovers, dead and alive. In the liminal space between waking and sleeping, he communes with the dead and does whatever he damn well pleases. What does he want? Everything. Accompanying the new track is an eerie music video by Hēmi Baker. We follow Hattaway portrayed as a noctule familiar and inspired by Miley Cyrus' ' Flowers ', as he dances through Melbourne's Abbotsford Convent. Tommy Sees Ghosts/ Roadside incident are available on all major streaming platforms and BandCamp For more information and a listen, visit
