Miley Cyrus Opens Up In Rare Interview, Vogue/CFDA Fashion Fund Finalists Announced, Keds x Recreational Habits, Fisher To Play Surf Lodge, And More!

Miley Cyrus covers British Vogue

Miley Cyrus doesn’t need to do press, which makes it even more thrilling to be blessed with an editorial and no-holds-barred interview with the global superstar. Cyrus sat down with British Vogue—admitting it was more as a means to star in a Steven Klein-lensed shoot! That tidbit is just one of many honest statements from the performer, who speaks to writer Giles Hattersley about the longterm impacts of how the media treated her as a child, being sober, the rituals that have saved her sanity, and coming to terms with the pace of fame. “Everything is seasonal,” she says, on the subject of her smash hit Flowers breaking records. “A lot of headlines [recently] have said, ‘This is Miley’s moment.’ And I’m like, ‘That’s exactly what it is. It’s a moment. And it will be over.’” Cyrus, 30, also talks about her boyfriend Maxx Morando, whom she met a few summers ago. “We got put on a blind date. Well, it was blind for me and not really for him. I thought, ‘The worst that can happen is I leave!’” Read the full feature here.
