I wonder if she’ll try to do another film?

I wonder if she wants kids?


Is she married? Her and Liam Hemsworth divorced in 2020.

She doesn't have the catalog that Swift or Beyonce or even someone like Katy Perry has. Also, her musical career has been kind of weird because she has her Hannah Montana years (which she would never sing now) and then she has her highly reactionary "I'm not a Disney Star -- I'm a sexy woman!" phase which produced a few hits but was also kind of over the top and in some cases really obnoxious (like when she decide she was "gangsta" and wore a metal grill and twerked onstage -- basically cosplaying as a black girl for credibility). She has had some decent success since then as she's settled down again, but it doesn't all hang together very well in the way that, say, Swift's catalog does.

It's hard to imagine her putting together a compelling show and who would buy tickets to it. Does she have a real fan base, or just people will sometimes latch on to one of her songs when it's decent and well-promoted. I have certainly never listened to an entire Miley Cyrus song start to finish.


You say this only because you’re not a fan and aren’t real familiar with her music. She has plenty of songs of her own to do a great concert and also does outstanding and really interesting covers of other people’s songs that her fans really enjoy.

She’s literally worth hundreds of millions of dollars so she’s been doing something right and obviously somebody likes her.

You’re just jealous.


She hasn't toured since 2014, so maybe actually she does not have the fan base for touring. She can spin it as "I don't want to," but there is a question as to whether there is demand. I have never heard someone say "when is Miley going to tour again?" I am not convinced there is demand.

It's not a value judgment, it's an observation. I'm not comparing Miley to me. I am comparing her to contemporaries like Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, and Katy Perry, all of whom have toured much more extensively in recent years. I don't think the difference is just that Miley doesn't want to -- these other artists have much more tour-friendly fan bases and musical catalogs.

Weird to argue I am jealous of Miley Cyrus but somehow not jealous of Beyoncé or Taylor Swift who are objectively more successful and have also had less tumultuous/troubled personal lives than Miley, who has dealt with some bad relationships, substance-abuse issues, and mental health concerns. If I had to pick a pop star to be jealous of, I probably would not pick Miley.


Yea, you’re right. She has no fan base. That’s why she has 208 MILLION followers on Instagram.


I didn't say she had no fan base. I said her fan base is different than those that consistently produce sold out tours. Following someone on Instagram is not the same as dropping $200 on a ticket to their show.


As mentioned previously, Flowers broke a Spotify download record so it's not just Instagram followers.

She has grown into a stunning and beautiful woman. Talk about being in great shape!!! Healthy, athletic and not too skinny.


Huh? If you look at the black and white photo she looks like a twelve year-old. If she were any skinnier she would be skeletal. I personally can’t get past her smattering of tats. I don’t find her attractive at all.


Just because she’s not obese like the average American doesn’t mean she “looks like a 12 year old.”


Look at the black and white photo again. She doesn’t look like a healthy thirty year-old.


I don't like the pose in the black and white photo, but she does have a great body. To me she looks like she has a naturally thin body type, kind of like Cameron Diaz.

It’s a mediocre song with a cool story behind it.

Spotify streaming reports are very suspect.

The whole conversation is silly because she doesn’t tour and hasn’t for a decade, there is no great pent up demand for her to tour, and it sounds like she doesn’t want to. So… why is she talking about it?

You’re ridiculous. I’m betting that among the 208 MILLION who follow her on social media there are enough willing to pay 200 bucks to see her in concert.

Look, I get it. You don’t like her and you don’t like her music. You couldn’t pay me enough to go to a Katy Perry concert but I’m not gonna sit here and tell you she couldn’t fill an arena just because she sounds like nails on a chalkboard to me.

I don’t think she has a naturally thin body type. Did you ever see her growing up? She was very average cute looking, but no toothpick. She’s lost a lot of weight over the years.

If I made a million dollars you'd never see or hear from me again. Good for her. If she's willing to forego the dough than so be it.

I'd need more than a million and, unless I had a lot more, some form of income. But she does indeed have a lot more and she can make income from writing/recording, so she's set. Many musical artists do not have that luxury and must perform because at this point it's one of the only ways to make decent money off of your songs -- between the way record companies operate and the way streaming has impacted royalties, live shows are one of the few ways most musicians/singers have to get a substantial cut of the revenues from their songs. This is one reason even more established musicians still often tour a lot -- you make less money of a million streams of your song than you used to from selling a million albums.

Miley is in the position to say "eh, I don't feel like touring" and not have to worry about her long term financial stability or being able to maintain a certain lifestyle. She's fortunate. Even many very successful musicians/bands don't really have that choice.

I noticed on Sunday Morning's countdown it is also the number one song in the USA right now. She also has a new song on the charts called "River."

There is another thread somewhere on here featuring a recent photoshoot of her in an ultra high cut one piece bathing suit and she looks beautiful. Her legs are toned and long (in proportion to her body.). Just fit and perfect.

Not to quote "Austin Powers", but a million dollars isn't really all that much money these days...

Run far, Liam and don't look back.

I like crazy Miley, but I really wish she could close her mouth.

I’m guessing people would pay as much to see her as they are paying to see Taylor Swift.

For me I’d pay a couple hundred.
