Miley Cyrus is on the artistic comeback of the century in the music world! Her upcoming project, Something Beautiful—a kind of visual album—premieres July 16 on Disney+ and Hulu. At 32 years old, Cyrus showcases her multifaceted talents, embodying various roles such as a showgirl and a ’60s European film star throughout the album.
In “Something Beautiful,” it’s Cyrus’s artistry and irrefutable talent that shine through. Throughout her two-decade career, she’s never stopped transforming herself as an artist. This upcoming full-length record is a testament to Fennell’s evolution and experimentation in blending music with visual expression through her craft. Collaborating with top talent, including her boyfriend Maxx Morando, she has created a work that she believes is modern and relevant.
Cyrus has certainly not shied away from talking about her past difficulty with vocal cord paralysis. On a recent episode of our podcast, she got candid with us about it all. She highlighted the struggle to maintain her vocal health while navigating the pressures of the industry and creating art.
“I do have the physical ability and I have the opportunities to tour. I wish I had the desire, but I don’t,” – Miley Cyrus
Even though she could theoretically tour, Cyrus has chosen not to go on a big tour for “Something Beautiful.” In a 2019 interview with Rolling Stone, she spoke about how unhealthy the touring lifestyle was for her, even comparing herself to fellow musician and late icon Prince.
“It’s really hard to maintain sobriety when you’re on the road, which is a really important, kind of pillar of stability in my life,” – Miley Cyrus
The emotional strain that comes with playing live takes a huge toll on most artists. Cyrus recalled the good and the bad so far on stage.
“You have so many thousands of people screaming at you, so dopamine, you’re feeling a lot of love. And then you totally crash at the end of the show,” – Miley Cyrus
Cyrus’s respect and appreciation for anyone she works with is most apparent in her collaborations. Just recently, she hit the stage with Beyoncé, co-writing the new track “II Most Wanted.” She showered Beyoncé with love for her passion and dedication, noting that this is the true key to developing great music artists.
“But again, it’s really honoring … these kind of, like, you know, iconic women in film and in music,” – Miley Cyrus
All in all, “Something Beautiful” is a moving celebration of Cyrus’s creative evolution and emotional journey. While she is dealing with this enormous opportunity, she is unapologetically happy about the fruits of her labor’s outcome.
“I’m just really proud of the outcome,” – Miley Cyrus
