Miley Cyrus admits she doesn’t maintain friendships with other stars: ‘Doesn’t feel like my people’
The singer has made a surprising admission about her Hollywood friends in a new interview with David Letterman.
Miley Cyrus is looking for “quality, not quantity” when it comes to her celebrity relationships.
The Flowers singer revealed she doesn’t play a “very active” role in celebrity circles these days in her latest interview with David Letterman on his My Next Guest Needs No Introduction series.
“I am not very active or a very active part of my community of other artists and entertainers and celebrities,” she said as she recalled her 2024 Grammy win and performance.
“It just doesn’t feel like my people when I’m in that room. But there are certain artists like Beyoncé — who, like us, we’ve known each other for a long time,” the singer continued.
Cyrus, who was recently featured on the Renaissance artist’s latest album, Cowboy Carter, remembered her 2007 Just Stand Up performance as she looked back on the beginning of her relationship with the Dreamgirls star.
“I was, like, sandwiched between Rihanna and the Queen Bey, and they’re fully grown up, gorgeous, probably similar to my age now. Towering over me, completely stunning,” Cyrus shared.

She continued, “I’m like, super small, have acne, have braces on the back of my teeth, and I’m standing next to Mariah Carey, who is dripping in diamonds. And Beyoncé was so kind to me.”
When it comes to their friendship today, the Disney Channel star said it’s all about the “kindness and the consistency.”
“So I’m apart of my community in that way but, again, it’s all quality, not quantity. I’m not very active in that,” she said.
Later in the episode, the Wrecking Ball singer also spoke about inheriting her “narcissism” from her famous father, Billy Ray Cyrus, amid their rumoured rift.
She also talked about the Achy Breaky Heart singer’s good qualities, saying he “has a relationship and a foot on the ground to nature and to the real.”
“He always did, even when he was super famous,” she said.

While she acknowledged how her father had a “really rough childhood,” she looked at her upbringing under a different light.
“My childhood — I mean, we can go and talk about the hard times or the struggles — but I had food, I had love, I grew up in a beautiful big house and my dad didn’t have that,” she explained.
