Miley Cyrus Beats Her Own Record As Her New Album Disappears
Miley Cyrus's Something Beautiful vanishes from the Billboard 200 after only two weeks on the tally, ... More despite the fact that it debuted at No. 4. PARIS, FRANCE - JUNE 18: (Exclusive Coverage) Miley Cyrus performs during Miley Cyrus Billions Club Series Paris at Maxim's on June 18, 2025 in Paris, France. (Photo byfor Spotify) When Miley Cyrus released her new album Something Beautiful on May 30, there was quite a lot of excitement surrounding the title. The pop star was still riding high off the incredible success of her previous full-length Endless Summer Vacation and its lead single "Flowers." That track earned the singer her first several Grammys and became not just a smash, but perhaps the biggest win in her catalog. None of the tunes pushed from Something Beautiful have become even top 40 successes on the Hot 100 in the United States, but despite that, there was still plenty of buzz surrounding the full-length. Once Something Beautiful got off to a fair start, it quickly became clear that interest in the project was waning. Now, less than a month after its release, the project has disappeared from every ranking in the country. Miley Cyrus Falls Off the Billboard 200 Just three tracking weeks into its lifespan, Something Beautiful has completely vanished from all Billboard charts. The set initially debuted inside the top 10 on multiple tallies, including the Billboard 200, Top Album Sales, and Vinyl Albums lists. Less than a month later, it's no longer generating enough pure purchases, not is it being consumed in large enough numbers, to appear on any ranking. Something Beautiful Lasted Just Two Weeks Something Beautiful launched on the Billboard 200 at No. 4. The set shifted 44,000 units during its first tracking frame. While a top five opening is always worthy of applause, that relatively low sum was cause for concern. Such thoughts were validated just days later when, in its second frame on the Billboard 200 — the all-encompassing ranking of the most consumed albums in the country — the project dipped nearly 100 spaces. Something Beautiful plunged from No. 4 to No. 102. It held there for several days, but now, after Billboard refreshed its rankings once again, Cyrus's latest effort can no longer be found. Miley Cyrus Beats Her Own Unfortunate Record Something Beautiful now stands as Cyrus's shortest-charting title on the Billboard 200. Before its arrival, that distinction was held by Hannah Montana: Hits Remixed. While that 2008 project only peaked at No. 103, it managed to remain on the list for five frames. To put Something Beautiful's short tenure into further perspective, Endless Summer Vacation, which arrived in March 2023, racked up 59 stays on the Billboard 200 — even though it only peaked one slot higher.

Miley Cyrus' ‘Something Beautiful' To Screen In Australian Cinemas Next Week
Australian fans of Miley Cyrus will get a chance to see the mutli-platinum pop star return to the big screen next week (June 27th), with nationwide screenings of her new film Something Beautiful having been announced by Event, Hoyts and Village Cinemas for at least one cinema in every state and territory. The film serves as the accompanying visuals to Cyrus' ninth studio album of the same name, which was released late last month. The full list of screenings can be found below. Something Beautiful was both co-directed and co-produced by Cyrus herself. She wrote the film with her team of co-directors, Jacob Bixenman and Brendan Walter. The former has been working with Cyrus since her previous studio album, 2023's Endless Summer Vacation, which included directing the music video for the chart-topping 'Flowers' – which has over one billion views on YouTube. The latter, meanwhile, is a former guitarist for the American pop-punk band Valencia, whose work as a videographer includes credits with Fall Out Boy, Lorde, Weezer, Sia, Green Day and Shawn Mendes. In promotional materials for the film, Something Beautiful is described as 'a one-of-a-kind pop opera'. '[This] is my dream project come true — fashion, film, and original music coexisting in harmony,' said Cyrus. 'My co-creators are all geniuses in their own right: From the masters of sound, Shawn Everett and Alan Meyerson, to one of cinema's most unique directors, Panos Cosmatos, serving as a producer. Each collaborator has used their expertise to make this fantasy a reality.' Prior to Something Beautiful, Cyrus' only other recent film appearance was an uncredited cameo in Ethan Coen's 2024 film Drive-Away Dolls, which starred Pedro Pascal and Beanie Feldstein. She was last seen before that in 2017's Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2, where she cameoed as Mainframe. Her last lead acting role was in 2012's So Undercover, alongside Jeremy Piven and her mother Tish. All screenings are on Friday, June 27th. All screenings are at 7pm unless otherwise indicated.

Miley Cyrus' Latest Experimental Career Stunt Is ‘Beautiful' But Unnecessary
We probably don't need to spare much sympathy for Miley Cyrus. A nepo baby and child star who seems to have emerged from her early Disney days relatively unscathed and with plenty of fans intact, Cyrus has lived a life of privilege no matter what personal hardships she may have endured along the way. Her last album, 2023's Endless Summer Vacation, included 'Flowers,' a massive mid-career hit that won her a Grammy. Yet there are times when Cyrus seems underestimated, even underrated, at least compared to fellow thirtysomething pop stars Taylor Swift or Lady Gaga, where their every move is treated as a seismic event and a Madonna-like reinvention of their latest 'era.' The Cyrus pop-star discography isn't as polished as the Taylor's Versions. But that also means her experiments—the oddball 90-minute psychedelic album she made with the Flaming Lips; the '80s rock homage Plastic Hearts—feel genuinely risky, not because she's touching some third rail of controversy (though she used to occasionally dabble in that) but because she's allowing for the possibility of actual artistic failure in a way that seems removed from many of her peers. There are songs on Miley Cyrus and Her Dead Petz that no mega-selling pop diva in her right mind would release, which is exactly what makes it worth listening to. In her eclecticism, Cyrus also risks the appearance of self-conscious effort, of trying too hard to keep pace with some imagined pop zeitgeist that she might have accidentally captured circa her 2013 breakout album Bangerz. (Whether for that reason or some other unknown factor, she seems to be the last 2010s-era pop star the influential music publication Pitchfork still feels comfortable slagging on.) Which brings us to Something Beautiful, her latest release, accompanied by a 53-minute accompanying 'visual album' that premiered at the Tribeca Festival and will play in U.S. theaters for one night on June 12. Cyrus's own, much-circulated description for this project is that she wanted to make 'The Wall, but with a better wardrobe and more glamorous and filled with pop culture.' She's got the wardrobe part down, and, in a generic sense, the glamor. But it's hard to discern much of The Wall or other notable pop culture influences from the Something Beautiful movie because, mostly, it's a bunch of music videos. At their core, that's what most 'visual albums' are: the long-standing practice of, now eventized close to feature length, making accompanying clips for every track on a given record, intended to add up to something more immersive, cross-referential, and conceptual than a simple listening experience. In that context, it's hard to ignore how decidedly non-conceptual Something Beautiful really is, as an album and especially as a sort-of movie. The film, credited to Cyrus, her frequent video director Jacob Bixenman, and pop-punk video mainstay Brendan Walter, is mostly an hour's worth of the star walking, strutting, and/or dancing, often on her own. Sometimes she's on a soundstage; sometimes she's in a real location. Sometimes she struts from a real location into a soundstage. 'Pretend You're a God' makes extensive use of a wind machine tossing around Cyrus's impressive mane of hair. 'Walk of Fame' takes place in part on, you guessed it, Hollywood's Walk of Fame. 'Every Girl You've Ever Loved' has an appearance from Naomi Campbell, reciting her spoken-word bits from the song in what looks like an abandoned warehouse. You know, just like The Wall. The thing is, most of these segments make fine music videos—retro, even, in their simplicity. Perhaps not coincidentally, the best videos tend to accompany the album's best songs: the aural and visual explosions of the title track, the ebullient soft-focus shimmy of 'End of the World,' and the playful undressing/redressing of 'Easy Lover,' which looks like it was one of the segments shot on celluloid (there are credits for dailies and lab processing in the film's final roll). Like most of the recent Miley records, Something Beautiful is uneven but stylically confident with some great tracks, and her early career on TV has given her an easy sense of how to play to the camera. She's good at this. That doesn't make Something Beautiful a concept record, or particularly in need of a full-length visual accompaniment. It's pleasant enough to watch, but it's hard to justify old-style MTV content as a pay-per-view experience in a movie theater. (It almost gives you a twinge of sympathy for the fans who bought tickets for the Tribeca screening of the film, then were incensed to realize it was not, in fact, a concert.) The biggest conceptual swing is that the last 10 minutes of the film are filtered through an old CRT television set—that is, footage of Cyrus plays on the TV, and the camera captures it from there, giving it a blue filter and some intentional visual noise. It's a neat video-of-a-video effect, and Cyrus certainly seems qualified to comment on the glamorous distortions of image-making. But Something Beautiful doesn't really get there, even as an allusive gesture. It does, however, underline Cyrus's strengths as an artist. Her voice (which, she recently revealed, is caused by a medical condition she's reluctant to treat any further, having grown understandably attached to her own distinctive rasp) is powerful enough to bop around different subgenres of pop, while her cultural awareness of the Old Ways maintains her old-fashioned sense of glamor. Good records and music videos are a fine vehicle for her talent and ambition; a visual album feels like unnecessary accessorizing for a star who already has a whole lot.

Miley Cyrus heckled at NYC Tribeca Film Festival by fans who thought premiere was a concert: ‘We paid $800'
They came in like a wrecking ball. Miley Cyrus, the Disney child star turned pop sensation, was heckled by fans at the world premiere of her 'Something Beautiful' long-form music video screening during the Tribeca Film Festival, footage of the awkward exchange showed. Fans who attended the special screening at The Beacon Theatre were seemingly under the impression that Cyrus would be performing during the event rather than promoting the upcoming film. 4 Miley Cyrus was heckled by fans during the world premiere of her 'Something Beautiful' visual album. Getty Images for Tribeca Festival 'We thought this was a concert, we paid $800,' one person shouted at her during the Q&A segment that took place on stage after the film. 'Are you actually going to sing?' another person questioned. The festival promoted Friday's event as a 'one-of-a-kind pop opera featuring thirteen original new songs from the Something Beautiful album' with 'an exclusive conversation' with the three-time Grammy winner after the 55-minute project aired. However, some fans who purchased their tickets on resale websites accused the third-party ticketing platforms of misleading them. A user on X posted a screenshot from a Google search of the event, which read 'Miley Cyrus Tickets & 2025 Endless Summer Vacation Tour Dates — though the 'Used To Be Young' singer is not on tour and the 'Endless Summer Vacation' record came out in 2023. 'This is the link I clicked on to buy. Says concert tour dates not movie dates,' the fan alleged on X. 4 Some fans thought the event was going to be a live concert. Dia Dipasupil Other fans who allegedly bought resale tickets were stunned that the expensive event wasn't a concert and even left early out of frustration, according to The Hollywood Reporter. 'No one would've spent this much money if we had known,' an attendee told the outlet. 'She doesn't tour, she doesn't play live often.' As of May 27, resale tickets for the Upper Balcony on Vivid Seats started at $510 and became more expensive closer to the stage. The Post reached out to Vivid Seats for comment. 4 Cyrus released her ninth studio album 'Something Beautiful' on May 30. Ouzounova / The 'Flowers' hitmaker eventually gave in to the hecklers' requests and sang her hit 'The Climb' in a cappella fashion. Tickets to see the 'Hannah Montana' alum's visual album and conversation at the 2,600-seat venue were initially sold on Ticketmaster and titled 'Miley Cyrus World Premiere of Something Beautiful.' It was one of the rare opportunities fans had to see the 'Flowers' singer in person. 'I can't. Not only 'can't…' because can't is your capability, but my desire,' Cyrus told British Vogue in June 2023. 'Do I want to live my life for anyone else's pleasure or fulfillment other than my own?' 4 Cyrus started dating boyfriend Maxx Morando in 2021 after they were set up on a blind date. GC Images Cyrus added that she felt disconnected from her fans while on stage. 'Like singing for hundreds of thousands of people isn't really the thing that I love,' Cyrus shared. 'There's no connection. There's no safety.' The 'Party in the USA' singer's last big tour was for 'Bangerz' in 2014. Cyrus performed in over 70 shows on the 'Bangerz' tour and followed that up with her '2015 Milky Milky Milk Tour,' which consisted of only eight shows. On top of feeling 'isolated' while on the road, the 'We Can't Stop' vocalist has a medical issue impacting her performance abilities Cyrus claimed she has Reinke's edema, a disorder she described as an 'abuse of the vocal cords.' 'It's extremely difficult to perform with because it's like running a marathon with ankle weights on,' the star revealed during an interview with Apple Music.

Miley Cyrus Aims High With Her Latest Artistic Swerve
Miley Cyrus has spent her whole career mutating and evolving, making drastic musical left turns. She went from Hannah Montana to the indie-sleaze neon orgy that was Bangerz, the ultimate 'Disney kid breaks free' statement. But that turned out to be just one of the many Mileys we'd get to know — over the next decade, she moved on to the stoner prog-rock of her Flaming Lips project Dead Petz, to the rootsy country of Younger Now, to the Eighties electro power-glitz of Plastic Hearts. Some thought Endless Summer Vacation was as far as she could ever go. But on Something Beautiful, she's aiming higher than ever, with her most ambitious and introspective tunes. She's also made an upcoming companion film of the same name, which drops on June 6. She's not striving for hits — there isn't another 'Flowers' here. She's got loftier goals for this one, calling it 'a concept album that's an attempt to medicate somewhat of a sick culture through music.' More from Rolling Stone Miley Cyrus, Lorde, Haim, and All the Songs You Need to Know This Week Miley Cyrus Evokes Her Inner Showgirl in 'Easy Lover' Music Video Miley Cyrus Says Album After 'Something Beautiful' Will Be 'Extremely Experimental' Miley's been talking it up as being inspired by Pink Floyd's The Wall, their bleak 1979 classic about rock-star alienation and isolation. She says this album is 'The Wall, but with a better wardrobe and more glamorous and filled with pop culture.' (Quite honestly, going up against Roger Waters in a fashion battle is setting the bar a bit low.) It's not her first Floyd moment, since she sang a memorable 'Wish You Were Here' on SNL as a pandemic lament. All over the album she returns to the theme of healing, looking for moments of beauty in the darkness. She gets help from producer Shawn Everett and a killer ensemble of rock luminaries, from Flea and Danielle Haim to indie rockers like Model/Actriz's Cole Haden, Foxygen's Jonathan Radio, and the War on Drugs' Adam Granduciel. Talk about range: this has to be the first album to include duets with both Brittany Howard, from the roots-rockers Alabama Shakes, and supermodel Naomi Campbell. Something Beautiful begins with a poetic 'Prelude' where Miley shares her thoughts about letting go of the past and moving on to the future, 'aching to be seen, aching to be real.' 'Walk of Fame' is one of the peaks, her electro pep talk on self-esteem ('Every time I walk, it's a walk of fame') with Howard making herself right at home in the disco glitz. It's essentially a tribute to Seventies producer Giorgio Moroder, just as 'Easy Lover' and 'Golden Burning Sun' go for the laid-back vibe of Fleetwood Mac. 'End of the World' goes for Abba-tooled Euro-pop, vowing to 'throw a party like McCartney with some help from our friends.' The title track begins as a soft neo-soul ballad until it flips into distorted electro-noise. 'More to Lose' is a massive Eighties-style power ballad that addresses the end of a relationship, where she sees her once-cherished ex as 'a movie star in a worn-out coat.' But the sentimental favorite has to be 'Every Girl You've Ever Loved,' a fantastic disco twirl with Campbell. It's a welcome musical comeback for the Nineties fashion icon, 30 years after her unjustly forgotten one-off trip-hop oddity Baby Woman, not to mention her famous Vanilla Ice duet 'Cool As Ice (Everybody Get Loose).' Miley sings an invitation to romance, purring, 'Aren't I pretty enough for more than fun in the dark?' Campbell plays the spoken-word hype woman, telling us all how awesome Miley is: 'She's got that kind of grace/Did Botticelli paint her face?/She's got the perfect scent/She speaks the perfect French.' It ends with a walk-off where both women chant 'Pose, pose, pose!' It's also got the album's gnarliest Eighties sax solo — and there's a load of those, because Miley is obviously in a very sax-solo place right now. 'Every Girl You've Ever Loved' is the loosest, most playful song on the album, but also the one that best illustrates the redemptive spirit she's going for on Something Beautiful. All over the album, Miley sings about keeping her chin up and looking on the positive side, even in times of trouble, which makes this album basically the opposite of The Wall, which was all about having a bad time at a rock show. But Something Beautiful is another bold swerve in one of pop's most delightfully unpredictable careers.
