Miley Cyrus has made a subtle dig at her father, Billy Ray , amid his recent filing for divorce from his wife of seven months, Firerose. On David Letterman’s Netflix special, My Next Guest Needs No Introduction , the “Flowers” singer welcomed the host to Chateau Marmont for a private concert in his honor alongside her mom, Tish . Cyrus sang and chatted with Letterman, speaking about her illustrious career, Hannah Montana, and her family dynamics in episode two of season five.
Cyrus also candidly answered Letterman’s question of whether she’d consider her dad to be her hero. “I mean, honestly, my mom is my hero,” she confessed, before noting how much she still cares for Billy Ray. Though the Grammy winner believed to have inherited her dad’s “perspective and reality on life,” she thinks her mom impacted her more.
Cyrus went as far as saying Tish was the one who truly raised her. What’s more, Cyrus said she inherited her dad’s narcissism, too. “Um, so I think a lot of, like, his.
.. perspective on reality and on life, I’ve inherited from him more so than the way that I was raised, which really my mom raised me,” she told Letterman.
Still, the “Wrecking Ball” performer said her parents have separately impacted her career and helped to catalyze her success. But the parts they individually played “can’t be weighed on the same scale,” according to her. The former Disney Channel star has seen Billy Ray, Tish, and her siblings – Noah, Brandi, .
