At the 66th annual Grammy Awards held in Los Angeles, Miley Cyrus made a bold fashion statement that had everyone talking. The 31-year-old singer and actress turned heads on the red carpet with her daring outfit - a barely there gold metal mesh dress with safety pin accents and matching metal panties. Paired with Christian Louboutin for Maison Margiela gold heels, Cyrus certainly left little to the imagination.
Designed by Maison Margiela, the custom naked dress strategically covered Cyrus in all the right places while allowing her numerous tattoos to peek through. Her hair was styled in a voluminous curled look, swept back from her face. Hairstylist Bob Recine utilized Nexxus products to create the desired dry, fuller, sexy, and tousled hairstyle.
To complement her metallic ensemble, Cyrus opted for a glamorous makeup look with bronze tones. The choice perfectly matched the metallic hues of her dress, adding an extra touch of sparkle to her overall appearance.
Capping off a remarkable year in 2023, Cyrus received six Grammy nominations, including one for Album of the Year for her record 'Endless Summer Vacation' and three for her hit song 'Flowers' - Best Pop Solo Performance, Record of the Year, and Song of the Year. 'Flowers' became an empowerment anthem, reigning for eight consecutive weeks at the top of the Billboard Top 100 last January. Additionally, it reached one billion streams on Spotify faster than any other song in history.
Expressing her gratitude for the nominations, Cyrus took to X (formerly Twitter) to thank her fans for their continuous support and acknowledge the dominance of women artists among the nominees. She emphasized that while being nominated and winning awards is exciting, the genuine love for her music across the world is the ultimate reward.
As the one-year anniversary of the release of 'Flowers' approached, Cyrus celebrated the song's impact by sharing black-and-white photos of herself holding a rose on Instagram. The post garnered more than 2 million likes, showcasing the enduring popularity of the hit track.
In an interview with British Vogue, Cyrus revealed that 'Flowers' was originally written in a different way. The chorus used to convey a more classic, sad tone with lyrics like, 'I can buy myself flowers, write my name in the sand, but I can't love me better than you can.' However, she transformed the song into a more uplifting and empowering anthem that embraced the concept of 'faking it till you make it.'
Addressing fan speculation that 'Flowers' contained references to her past relationship with ex-husband Liam Hemsworth, Cyrus dismissed the rumors. She asserted that she didn't feel the need to manipulate her audience, as the song's true meaning would naturally reveal itself.
The 2024 Grammy Awards marked yet another milestone in Miley Cyrus's career, as she continues to captivate audiences with her musical talent, daring fashion choices, and unapologetic authenticity. Whether it's on the red carpet or through her music, Cyrus never fails to make a lasting impression.
