‘Fuming’ Miley Cyrus fears her father will damage her huge music comeback
Miley Cyrus has been left ‘fuming’ over her dad Billy Ray Cyrus’ latest public praise of her amid their family feud.
On Tuesday, Billy Ray gave Miley as well as his youngest daughter Noah Cyrus, 25, a a rare shout-out on Instagram after they each announced new chapters in their music careers.
Miley confirmed her upcoming visual album Something Beautiful, due out May 30, while Noah plugged her song Don’t Put It All On Me in collaboration with Fleet Foxes.
Taking to Instagram afterward, the 63-year-old patriarch — who is understood to be on rocky terms with some of his kids, including Miley and son Trace, 36 — shared a split photo of Miley and Noah along with an emphatic caption.
‘Holy s**t. I seldom ever swear in my post but this deserves one! You are witnessing in real time what it feels like for a Dad, who with in less than one [week’s] time, has had his a** kicked and his mind blown by not one …but two of his own daughters,’ he wrote. He tagged the sisters as he continued, ‘Flesh and blood… completely taking their art to a whole new level. Congratulations girls! Well done.’
Following the gushing public tribute, a source exclusively shared with DailyMail.com that Miley isn’t happy with her father’s emotional display and fears it could ‘overshadow’ her big music comeback.
‘Miley doesn’t want the family feud drama overshadowing her music career, especially right now as she gears up for a new era,’ the insider dished.

Billy Ray continued heaping praise on his kids, adding, ‘I’m so damn proud of both of you. I’m actually crying as I write this. Thank God you can’t see me. Have fun now and be happy! Love Dad.’
The person close to the Wrecking Ball hitmaker and her latest music campaign emphasized, ‘It feels like Billy is making this all about him while Miley has made it quite clear she wants to focus on her music and not have their family drama be part of the conversation.’
Miley notably did not include her father in her speech last year when she accepted her first Grammy, which she won for Best Pop Solo Performance for her song Flowers.
The pair have had a strained relationship in the wake of his messy personal life, which includes a public, vitriolic divorce from Firerose in 2024 after a short-lived marriage that lasted less than a year.
In addition to Miley, Noah, and Trace, Billy shares son Braison, 30, and daughter Brandi, 37, with ex-wife Tish Cyrus, 57. He also has a 32-year-old son named Christopher, whom he shares with Kristin Luckey.
Days after his ‘train wreck‘ performance at Donald Trump‘s inauguration earlier this year, Billy Ray announced a music collaboration with Braison.
In February Noah took to social media to congratulate her dad on releasing a new song, writing, ‘So proud of my Dad’s INCREDIBLE new single LOST with my good, old friend [Sam Tinnesz] and [Tommee Profitt],’ according to People.

Meanwhile, following Billy’s wonky inauguration performance — which was marked by technical difficulties — Trace made a public plea for his dad to get help.
He wrote in an Instagram post, ‘You’re not healthy, Dad & everyone is noticing it.’
It was added: ‘Since my earliest memories all I can remember is being obsessed with you and thinking you were the coolest person ever.
‘I wanted to be just like you. The day you adopted me was the happiest day of my life.
‘Sadly the man that I wanted so desperately to be just like I barely recognize now. It seems this world has beaten you down and it’s become obvious to everyone but you.
‘You may be upset with me for posting this but I really could care less at this point. Me and the girls have been genuinely worried about you for years but you’ve pushed all of us away.’

His ex-wife Firerose also spoke out about the seemingly struggling country star at the time.
She addressed her former spouse’s behavior via a statement shared with Page Six.
‘What’s being seen in public now reflects much of what I experienced in private during our relationship,’ the Australian singer revealed.
‘It’s very sad to see those same struggles continue for him, but I’m glad the truth is coming to light — for his potential good because healing is only possible when you confront the truth and accept there’s a problem,’ she told the outlet.
