Miley Cyrus has time and again clarified that she is everything but a people pleaser. The ‘Flowers‘ singer has always been viewed as an outsider in the world of glam and glitz. She herself recently brought it up as she mentioned how her value in Hollywood immediately went up after her recent Grammy win.
Making a fearless statement yet again, Cyrus has asserted that she keeps her social circle tight when it comes to fellow entertainers. Here’s what the Grammy-winning pop star had to say about her friendships in Hollywood and why they don’t quite feel like the right thing to her.
Miley Cyrus Reveals Why She Doesn’t Prefer Having Celebrities For Friends
In a recent interview on Netflix’s ‘My Next Guest Needs No Introduction with David Letterman‘, Miley Cyrus admitted she doesn’t maintain many friendships within the entertainment industry. She explained how it’s how she feels with her fellow entertainers that does not quite feel right, except for a few select celebrities.
“I am not very active or 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,” Cyrus said. “But there are certain artists,” she continued, “like Beyoncé — who, like us, we’ve known each other for a long time.”
Cyrus also recalled performing the supergroup charity single ‘Just Stand Up!‘ along with Beyoncé, Mary J. Blige, Carrie Underwood, Fergie, Natasha Bedingfield, Ashanti, and others when she was just 15 at the 2008 Stand Up to Cancer telethon. “I was, like, sandwiched between Rihanna and the Queen Bey, and they’re fully grown up, gorgeous, probably similar to my age now. Towering over me, completely stunning,” Cyrus shared.
“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,” she added.

Miley Cyrus Reflects On Her Friendship With Beyonce
Miley Cyrus collaborated with Beyonce on the duet ‘II Most Wanted‘ from the latter’s recently released album, ‘Cowboy Carter‘. The song became a top-10 hit in the United States, reaching No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.
“Now, just from seeing her, I’ve created, like, a relationship, maybe, a bit more in-depth,” Cyrus said, before addressing host David 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.”
“I’m part of my community in that way, but it’s all quantity — not quality. I’m not very active in that,” she added, clarifying that she intends on maintaining a high bar for letting celebrities into her life as her friends.
