Miley Cyrus Explains How She Used to Hide All of the Money She Spent on Drugs from Her Accountant
Miley Cyrus recalls the days of hiding her drug purchases from those around her The former Disney star visited The Ringer's Every Single Album podcast where she discussed her drug use during Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz era She has also openly discussed her sobriety journeyMiley Cyrus is opening up about her past drug use — and how she used to keep it a secret from those around her, specifically her accountant. The music artist, 32, got candid while taking a deep dive into where she was mentally for each of her albums like Bangerz and Endless Summer Vacation, for the Friday, June 6 episode of The Ringer's Every Single Album podcast. During their discussion of her 2015 album, Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz, the former Disney star revealed where some of her money went without her accountant's knowledge. 'The drugs were the biggest cost, which to hide those from my accountant, we called them vintage clothes,' Cyrus said. The 'Flowers' singer continued, 'And so she would get these checks. That happens on touring all the time.' Cyrus said over time her accountant would wonder about the "vintage clothes" costs but she always made sure to keep her purchases discreet. 'And every time she saw me, she'd be like, 'Where's that, like, $15,000 original John Lennon T-shirt that you bought?' It's like, 'Oh, it's upstairs,' ' she said. '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,' Cyrus added. Continuing to reflect on Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz, the 'We Can't Stop' singer admitted she's grateful for how far she's come since that period in her life. 'I'm so glad I survived that time in my life," Cyrus 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.' Cyrus has been open about her sobriety throughout the passing years. In a 2017 interview with Billboard, she said she was 'evolving' after giving up marijuana. 'I haven't smoked weed in three weeks, which is the longest I've ever [gone without it],' she said at the time. 'I'm not doing drugs, I'm not drinking, I'm completely clean right now! That was just something that I wanted to do.' She later spoke to Rolling Stone for the magazine's January 2021 cover story after she "fell off" and started drinking during the pandemic.

Honestly, I never try to, again, be a fortune-teller. I try to not be naive," Cyrus said at the time. "Things f—--- happen. But from sitting here with you right now, I would say it would have to be a cold day in hell for me to relapse on drugs."

Miley Cyrus, pop's new queen of reinvention, goes for broke on her new album
Miley Cyrus, Something Beautiful Most pop stars will tell you that any shot at longevity demands reinvention, often multiple times over. At 32, having started her showbiz career as a kid, Miley Cyrus has already cycled through a lifetime's worth of guises. As the teen star of Hannah Montana in the mid-'00s she made age-appropriate power pop; by 2013 she was twerking at the MTV Awards and burying her Disney persona with the impudent, chaotic Bangerz. Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz, a 2015 psychedelic collab with the Flaming Lips, was nothing if not bold. Her albums of the past decade have modelled a maturing look and sound as Cyrus tried to stake a place in the pop landscape that went beyond mere provocation, most recently with the vampish glam rock of 2020's Plastic Hearts and the yacht rock and hazy electronica found on 2023's Endless Summer Vacation. That last one contained Flowers, one of her biggest hits and the track that won Cyrus her first Grammy. In a recent interview Cyrus confessed she'd been yearning for that recognition for a long time, a validating achievement that gave her the freedom to do whatever she wanted this time around. Whatever she wanted isn't quite as out-there as the marketing around Something Beautiful would have you believe, but it's a solid record all the same. Allegedly inspired by Pink Floyd – The Wall, the 1982 surrealist musical drama that riffs on the Pink Floyd album of the same name, Something Beautiful is significantly less psychedelic and more glamorous than that film; a 'visual album' that succeeds more as art project than artistic evolution. The title track is probably the most ambitious on the album. It starts as a bluesy lounge ballad, busts into a rock-opera chorus about 90 seconds in, then repeats the process for the track's remainder. The entire album plays in a similar fashion, sprinkled with moments of true daring without ever fully committing to the part. End of the World plays like a hazy, soft-rock homage to ABBA's Mamma Mia – polished and tasteful without being overly arresting. What is memorable is the accompanying music video, in which Cyrus – a vision in a spangly emerald-green minidress, her long hair worn in loose waves like a '70s pin-up – preens and prowls across the stage under soft, gorgeous lighting.
