Miley Cyrus won her first Grammy for her track “Flowers,” believed to be a dig at ex-husband Liam Hemsworth. The song’s lyrics took a swipe at their relationship issues. At the Grammy Awards, she modified the lyrics live, hinting at their breakup. Cyrus nabbed the Best Pop Solo Performance award, beating out Taylor Swift.
Accepting the award from Mariah Carey, Cyrus playfully referenced their shared initials, calling the moment “iconic.” She subtly shaded Hemsworth by altering song lyrics onstage, implying regret over leaving and fighting in their relationship.
Social media erupted with praise for Cyrus, celebrating her apparent victory in the breakup. Fans hailed her boldness in addressing Hemsworth indirectly. Some suggested she should have mentioned him by name during the performance.
Despite the speculation, Cyrus didn’t directly name-drop Hemsworth at the ceremony. Instead, she focused on the thrill of sharing the stage with Carey, whom she called a music legend.
