Miley Cyrus brought full rockstar energy to her Walk of Fame moment in a daring skin-baring Versace look.
The Hannah Montana alum, 33, was joined by her mother, Tish Cyrus, stepdad Dominic Purcell, sister Brandi Cyrus and fiancé Maxx Morando during the Friday, May 22, ceremony. Her father, Billy Ray Cyrus, did not attend the event but did cheer her on via social media.
While taking the podium, Miley expressed her gratitude to those who have remained by her side, also sharing her excitement for what’s ahead. “To my family, my future family, my parents, my mom, my friends, my collaborators, thank you for loving and supporting not only the choices that I make but my fears and then facing them with me. Today is something that I’ll never forget, and I’m always going to cherish,” she said. “I love you all so much, thank you.”
Miley went on to give a shout-out to her famous father, 64, adding, “My dad used to say that a skyscraper starts with a jackhammer. So, does a star on the Walk of Fame by the way. And it’s not about the force, but it’s about the repetition. What feels so special to me about this Star is that it’s an accumulation of devotion.”
Miley is the third eldest of Billy Ray and Tish’s kids. The exes — who were married from 1993 to 2022 — are also parents of Brandi, 38, Trace, 37, Braison, 32, and Noah, 26, while Billy Ray shares son Christopher, 34, with ex Kristen Luckey.
In honor of the momentous occasion, Miley said she opted for a dress “handpicked from the Versace atelier.” She wowed in a black gown featuring an intricate web-like design with sheer cutouts, a halter neckline and fitted silhouette.
Earlier this month, Billy Ray, 64, expressed his excitement about Miley’s Hollywood Walk of Fame achievement.
“@mileycyrus I am coming in early to clean and shine the sidewalks before the big day,” he wrote via Instagram on May 9. “It’s only once in a lifetime, a daddy from Flatwoods, Kentucky, gets to see his little girl … evolve into an actress into a full-fledged rock star ⭐️.”
In a separate post, Billy Ray reflected on his and Miley’s past visits to the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
“It’s a long way from Tennessee to Hollywood @mileycyrus! And you did it girl,” he noted. “Congratulations on your well-deserved star on the @hwdwalkoffame! Remember those nights you spoke about when I’d sneak ya out of our hotel and we would go lurk on those dirty sidewalks!!! And you would point out all the chewing gum because you knew it made me sick!!!! 🤢 So proud of you 👏🏻 Love ya. ♥️.”
Rumors of a feud among the Cyrus family dominated headlines before Miley ultimately addressed the speculation in May 2025.
“I rarely comment on rumors, but my mama and I are too tight for anything to ever come between us,” she wrote via her Instagram Story at the time, referring to Tish, 59, allegedly unfollowing her on social media. “She’s my best friend. Like a lot of moms, she doesn’t know how to work her phone and somehow unfollowed me — simple, coincidental and uninteresting.”
Miley also revealed where she stood with Billy Ray — who is now dating Elizabeth Hurley — after his divorce from Tish caused a divide between the father-daughter duo.
“My dad and I have had our challenges over the years,” she continued. “Now, in my 30s, family is my priority above all else. I’m at peace knowing bridges have been built and time has done a lot of healing. Grateful for the good health and love that flows through my family.”
Later that month, Miley revealed her new approach toward her relationship with her parents.
“I think timing is everything,” she said on The New York Times’ “The Interview” podcast. “Now that my mom is so in love with my stepdad, who I completely adore, and now that my dad, I see him finding happiness, too — I can love them both as individuals instead of as a parental pairing. I’m being an adult about it.”
The following month, Miley confessed that “half [of her family members] weren’t speaking to each other at one point” following Billy Ray and Tish’s divorce.
“We cleaned all that up,” she shared on Monica Lewinsky’s “Reclaiming” podcast in June 2025. “That was a really big part of my year this year, was all of my family, putting all of those lines of communication back together.”
