Hannah Montana Star Likes to Keep Her Circle Small
You might expect an A-lister like Cyrus to be constantly surrounded by other celebrities. After all, having grown up in the spotlight, one would assume she is deeply embedded in the celebrity social scene. However, Cyrus, 31, admitted that she prefers to keep her circle small and isn’t very active in the community of artists and entertainers. Cyrus shared her sentiments in the following words with Letterman:
“I am not a very active part of my community of other artists and entertainers and celebrities. “It just doesn’t feel like my people when I’m in that room. But there are certain artists.”
However, Miley Cyrus Would Go All-In For Some Artists
While Cyrus maintains a small circle, there are notable exceptions, including her long-time acquaintance, Beyoncé. Cyrus reminisced about performing the charity single “Just Stand Up” alongside Beyoncé, Mary J. Blige, Carrie Underwood, Fergie, Natasha Bedingfield, and Ashanti during the 2008 Stand Up to Cancer telethon. She was just 15 at the time and felt out of place among such towering icons.
“I was, like, sandwiched between Rihanna and the Queen Bey, and they’re fully grown up, gorgeous, probably similar to my age now,” Cyrus said.
“Towering over me, completely stunning. 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.”
Beyonce’s Attention To Her Left a Lasting Impression on Her
This early experience left a lasting impression on Cyrus, who recently collaborated with Beyoncé on a track for her latest album, Cowboy Carter. Despite not being in constant contact, Cyrus values the genuine kindness and consistency in her relationship with Beyoncé. She told Letterman:
“We haven’t ever had this conversation, so now maybe you and I may be more friends than I’m friends with Beyoncé, but Beyoncé and I have just the kindness and the consistency of everything.”
Her Approach to Friendships Follows the Quality Over Quantity Rule
Cyrus emphasizes that her approach to friendships, particularly with other celebrities, is about quality rather than quantity. This philosophy allows her to foster deeper, more meaningful connections rather than being overwhelmed by the demands of maintaining a large social circle.
“I’m part of my community in that way, but it’s all quality — not quantity,” Cyrus concluded.
Through her candid conversation with Letterman, Cyrus offers a refreshing perspective on fame and friendships, highlighting the importance of genuine connections over the allure of celebrity status.
