Miley Cyrus has had a significant 2024, filled with both personal and professional highs. As the year ends, she took to Instagram and X to reflect on her journey, expressing gratitude for the blessings of the year and optimism for the future. In her post from Dec. 24, the 32-year-old singer shared her bittersweet feelings about saying goodbye to a year that brought both challenges and triumphs. Despite acknowledging the heartbreaking process of some setbacks, including a rumored feud with her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, and a copyright claim on her hit song Flowers, she remains hopeful about moving forward and growing from these experiences.
2024 has marked a turning point for Cyrus, who continues to prove her staying power in the music industry. She won her first two Grammy Awards this year for Flowers, securing Best Pop Solo Performance and Record of the Year. In a follow-up interview, Cyrus noted that it was the first time she felt truly “taken seriously” by the Grammy voters, a milestone she’s proud of after years of carving out her own unique space in music.
In August, she made history by becoming the youngest recipient of the prestigious Disney Legend Award, joining the ranks of other legendary figures like Harrison Ford and George Lucas. In an emotional acceptance speech, she encouraged others to embrace fear and take risks, declaring that true legendary status comes from pushing through challenges.
Looking ahead, Cyrus is preparing for her ninth studio album. Drawing inspiration from Pink Floyd’s The Wall, she described the album as a “concept album” designed to address the state of modern culture with hypnotic and glamorous sounds. Her boyfriend, Maxx Morando, has also been involved in the project, which is expected to be released sometime in 2025. With her career continuing to soar, it’s clear that Cyrus has big plans for the future, and fans are eagerly awaiting what’s next.
