On the same day that it was reported that Miley Cyrus and her friend of almost a year, Cody Simpson, had broken up with her, the pop diva released a far-fetched disco-empowerment folk song, in which she audaciously proclaims, “I was born to run , I don ‘t belong to everyone / Oh no, I do not want to be loved by you. “
Just hours before Cyrus’ single “Midnight Sky” dropped Thursday night and its glitzy video broke, news broke about the Cyrus / Simpson split. The pop star, 27, and the Australian singer / actor / model, 23, were first romantically linked back in October 2019, two months after Cyrus’ divorce from her husband Liam Hemsworth. The couple seems close, even got coordinating tattoos, and earlier this month Simpson had declared, “In love with my best friend” in his Instagram Stories, referring to Cyrus.
In an Instagram Live chat with fans after Thursday’s premiere of ‘Midnight Sky’, Cyrus confirmed the breakup rumors, saying: “For now, two halves can not make a whole, and we’re individually working on ourselves to become the people we want to be. ”Despite the feistiness of the” Midnight Sky “choir, she made it clear that there is absolutely no bad blood between her and Simpson. ‘Do not make it a drama story when we hang out next week “or get pizza,” she said. “We’ve been friends for 10 years, and we will continue to be friends. So, just do not make it something that is not.”
It’s unlikely that “Midnight Sky” is all about Simpson. One section certainly seems to refer to Cyrus’ decades-long relationship with Hemsworth, as she sings, “Lotta years went by with my hands tied in your ropes / Forever and ever, no more.” Another line seems to be about Cyrus’ short 2019 fling with reality star Kaitlynn Carter: “Look at my lips on her mouth / Everyone’s talking now, baby.” A press release states that “Midnight Sky” was “inspired by the past year of [Cyrus’s] life, ‘and that the self-directed video’ takes viewers through Miley’s creative vision, which shows her complete control over the narrative that is often told through the mouths of the media. Miley is at peace with who she is and has nothing to prove. ”
