Something Beautiful is officially upon us, and Miley Cyrus is celebrating her new album by sharing the love with fans. After Miley dropped the project on Friday, she held an intimate performance and album signing at Rough Trade in New York City on June 4—and made a subtle dig at her ex, Liam Hemsworth, in the process.
As she signed Smilers’ albums and other memorabilia, she left a specific note for a fan named Liam along with her signature. Per his social post, she wrote, “The best Liam,” and he posted another photo with the “Easy Lover” singer with the caption, “Me when I’m the best Liam.” And her? She’s just being Miley.
This isn’t Miley’s first intimate event to celebrate Something Beautiful. Ahead of its release, she hosted a Q&A with TikTok and sang pared-back versions of tracks off the album at L.A.’s famous Chateau Marmont on May 27.
Earlier in the month, she teamed up with Spotify to host day-1 supporters and press for an advanced screening of the album’s pop-opera film at New York City’s Metrograph theater. While the film won’t be released in theaters until June 12 and June 27, she opened up about what the album means to her during a Q&A with Matt Peterson, a lifelong fan who asked her to prom in 2013.
“There’s such a spectrum of beauty, and some of it incorporates heartbreak and loss, or death or pain—but sometimes it’s flowers and rainbows and new love. There’s always something to look forward to,” Miley shared at the time before gushing about her fans.
“I’m also gagged by this movie. Any chance that I have, like everything, I make it for both of us. I make it for me to love it and for you to love it. There’s no one else that really matters,” she said.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, it’s time to throw on this banger and marvel at Miley’s archival Mugler look, just because we can:
