Miley Cyrus, born in 1992, became famous thanks to the role of Miley Stewart/Hannah Montana in the Disney Channel television series Hannah Montana.
The singer subsequently completely changed her image, for which she was widely criticized, and in the same year the album Bangerz was released, containing the disputed hit Wrecking Ball, a commercial success with which the singer reached the top of the Billboard 100 for the first time After Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz (2015) and Younger Now (2017), in 2020 she presents herself with a more rock-oriented style for the album Plastic Hearts, which was followed by a new three-year break until the release of Endless Summer Vacation (2023), driven by the successful single Flowers.

In 2009, while filming the film The Last Song, she began an on-and-off relationship with Australian actor Liam Hemsworth. During periods of breakup between the two, Cyrus briefly dated actors Lucas Till in 2009, Josh Bowman in 2011 and Patrick Schwarzenegger between 2014 and 2015 and model Stella Maxwell also in 2015.

After getting back together in 2016, Hemsworth and Cyrus married on December 23, 2018 at their home in Franklin, Tennessee. On August 10, 2019, after just eight months of marriage, the couple announced their separation. Eleven days later Hemsworth filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences. She was later engaged for a short period to the American blogger Kaitlynn Carter and the Australian singer Cody Simpson. The end of relationships with Hemsworth, Carter and Simpson all inspired the writing of the lyrics of the song Midnight Sky. In April 2022 the artist revealed that she had embarked on a relationship with Liily Maxx drummer Morando.

In November 2019 she underwent surgery to correct chronic inflammation of the vocal cords due to Reinke's edema, which could have worsened even further in the following years.
