The story behind her most important night – and what advice Harrison Ford gave her
Years of career and success may have passed, but Miley Cyrus didn't have her own Grammy until recently. And as she says, maybe because that was never her goal. Until... she met another "MC" in the audience.
The moment everything changed: "Mariah is my north star"
Speaking to Jimmy Fallon on the show The Tonight Show, Miley recalled the night she won her first Grammy for “Flowers.” “I didn’t get to the red carpet in time, it was busy and raining. But when I saw Mariah Carey… I knew. It was like ‘MC to MC.’ I’ve identified with her album Butterfly since 1997 — she is the butterfly, the transformation, the journey. I knew the prize was mine.”
An… expensive dream and a piece of advice from Harrison Ford
Cyrus revealed that the album something beautiful initially he had a different concept: he wanted to tour magical places like forests or in front of pyramids. However, when he presented it to Harrison Ford at the Disney Legends Awards, he simply said, "It seems expensive... I don't know if it's worth it." Miley took the thought back to her management and they agreed 100%.
A performance that enchanted – and a cover that stole hearts
On the anniversary SNL 50, Miley performed Prince's "Nothing Compares 2 U" with The Roots and Brittany Howard, moving the audience. She admitted she was nervous: "Everyone I've admired and influenced me over the years was there."
Heels, humor and… “Miss Booty”
In one of the most enjoyable moments of the interview, Miley made Jimmy Fallon try on… heels, teaching him the basic steps from “Easy Lover” while wearing stylish chunky boots. “Step one: a chunky heel — and your new drag name, Miss Booty!” she said with a laugh.
The musical documentary something beautiful will be shown exclusively in theaters on June 12th for one night only.
