Cyrus debuts album at close-knit fan event
In a cosy gathering at LA's Chateau Marmont, Miley Cyrus hosted a special event for fans in collaboration with TikTok. As per Variety, a 100-person audience attended the gathering to listen to Cyrus' upcoming album Something Beautiful, oblivious to the popstar's surprise performance after the album-listening party. Cyrus came in to debut a handful of songs from the album, such as End Of The World and More To Lose, along with a few fan favourites, including an impromptu rendition of her hit 2009 song The Climb, for an exclusive audience. Sharing the process of making Something Beautiful with her fans, Cyrus said at the beginning of the set, "I've been experimenting with this album for the past year or two by having these nights at Chateau. They were invite-only, super exclusive, just my closest friends and my family." She added that these sessions were effective in helping her discover the kind of album she was making. She credited Michael Pollack for his work on the piano and being her songwriting partner. She also gave a shoutout to Jonathan Rado on the guitar and Maxx Morando on the drums. Cyrus said she had to own the album with these three artists by her side. "Making the album and fully realising it all and watching it become this butterfly and have this metamorphosis, this evolution, it's so reflective of my life and everything that I'm experiencing. I pour that into the production," she said. "But at the heart of this album, it's just us, really. It's been us three in a room making this album for the past couple of years." Something Beautiful will be released worldwide on Friday, just days ahead of its visual film, which is scheduled for June 6.

Miley Cyrus Debuts New Album ‘Something Beautiful' With Surprise Performance at Fan-Only TikTok Event in Los Angeles
Miley Cyrus took a moment during TikTok's fan-only listening event for her new album 'Something Beautiful' to give the 100-person audience a heads up: 'My next album is about to be extremely experimental, so have fun with that,' she said. ''Something Beautiful' is just the appetite.' By that point, the room had already heard the album in full, as Cyrus had chosen Los Angeles' Chateau Marmont to preview her ninth record (out Friday) for fans that were lucky enough to secure an invite through social media.

Dressed in archival Mugler, she took the makeshift stage at the front of the room — which also counted actress Anya Taylor-Joy in the audience — and began with 'More to Lose,' the sweeping ballad that she previously released as a single. 'I've been experimenting with this album for the past year or two by having these nights at Chateau, they were invite-only, super exclusive, just my closest friends and my family,' she said at the beginning of the set. 'This was the way that I kind of discovered the album, because if it can't stand up with me and Michael Pollack on the piano, who I wrote these songs with, [Jonathan] Rado on the guitar, and Maxx Morando on the drums, then what are we even doing?… So making the album and fully realizing it all and watching it become this butterfly and have this metamorphosis, this evolution, it's so reflective of my life and everything that I'm experiencing and I pour that into the production. But at the heart of this album, it's still been us, really. It's been us three in a room making this album for the past couple of years.'

She then concluded with 'End of the World,' describing how she 'That song was written in this room,' she said. 'It totally changed and morphed just from being right here in this place under the ceiling, and this place has so many memories for me that I'm not going to tell you about. You'll think differently of me. But all jokes aside, I just want to thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for all your support over all this time and on this album. It's totally a devotion and dedication to the ride that we've been on together, and I look forward to it continuing to places we couldn't even imagine.' There was one last surprise in store for the evening as an attendee stood up just as she finished addressing the crowd to propose to his boyfriend. 'Go get a room! Put it on my bill.
