Speaking about the record, Cyrus said, "This album is a love story, but love stories are never one-dimensional. They’re always layered. There is definitely a romantic thread weaving through it because, like all my records, it’s a reflection of where I am in my life.”

She also spoke about the importance of a sense of peace and self-love. "That’s something I hadn’t really experienced before. A peaceful kind of love has become a theme across my last three records. Not just the love I share with someone else, but the love I’ve found from myself.”


Cyrus is also gearing up for her two concerts at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on October 16 and 18, with Model/Actriz set to join her as a special guest.
