The 2024 Grammys became a magical night for many artists, who saw one - or several - of the magnificent golden gramophones in their hands for the first time. That was the case of Miley Cyrus, who after almost two decades in the world of music, won no less than two awards in higher categories.
The artist won the awards for Best Recording of the Year and Best Pop Performance, which she received from a legend like Mariah Carey. However, it was at the moment of her speech that Miley Cyrus rang the bell, completely ignoring her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, who has accompanied her throughout her entire career since she was a child.
In her speech, the Flowers interpreter remembered her large family, deliberately leaving her father out of her prepared speech. The artist thus thanked her "mom" Tish Cyrus, her sister Brandi and her "love" Maxx Morando - all of whom were present at the ceremony - for having supported her. leaving Billy Ray out of it.
"Thank you all very much. This award is amazing, but I really hope it doesn't change anything; because my life was beautiful yesterday," said the singer and actress, 31, on stage, while recognizing the authors. and Flowers producers Thomas “Kid Harpoon” Hull , Michael Pollack , Brian Rajaratnam and Mark “Spike” Stent .
"Not everyone in the world will get a Grammy, but everyone in this world is spectacular. So please don't think this is important. It is very important, though, right?" he said, laughing. "We are very excited. I don't think I have forgotten anyone, but I may have forgotten the underwear," she said, before saying goodbye.
A detail that did not go unnoticed by the artist's followers, who immediately commented on the moment on social networks, trying to find out where the relationship between father and daughter would be.
The truth is that things are not going too well between Miley and Billy Ray Cyrus. The singer seems to have positioned herself at her mother's side during her parents' divorce after almost three decades together, as well as when they chose the people with whom they would rebuild her lives.
Tish Cyrus is married to actor Dominic Purcell, who has integrated wonderfully into his wife's family; while Billy Ray married Firerose, an actress 27 years his junior whom she met while casting for a role in Hannah Montana. Miley did not attend her wedding.
Apparently, the singer would have cheated on his wife with his current wife, which would not have sat too well with Miley, who would have positioned herself at her mother's side. Tish has also been her representative throughout her career, something for which Miley has always been very grateful.
"My mother has been behind the scenes my whole life," Miley confessed a few months ago in an interview with Vogue. "She was always the one who prepared me for the big days, starting with cheerleading competitions and finally on sets or backstage before a performance. She has never stopped celebrating me and has been very supportive of my decisions."
