On Monday, Miley Cyrus flaunted her beach-ready physique while promoting her latest album on her Instagram.
She’s getting ready to release her upcoming album, Endless Summer Vacation, in just a couple of weeks. Miley, who is 30 years old, sported a red bandeau bikini top and bottoms, showing off her toned abs as she posed on the floor reaching towards the wall. Her blonde wavy hair flowed down as she leaned against the wooden wall. “I’m cruising around in a rundown old Mercedes, you might think I’m out of my mind. And you could be right,” she wrote in the caption.
Fans were left in no doubt about Miley promoting her latest album, as she used hashtags like ‘EndlessSummerVacation’ and ‘March10’. Her new track, Flowers, has been a massive hit since its release, breaking Spotify’s One-Week Streaming Record last month.
In just one week, from January 13 to January 19, the singer’s latest song was streamed over 96 million times on Spotify. The single is said to reflect Miley’s feelings after her split from Australian actor Liam Hemsworth, who turned 33 on the day of the song’s release, January 13.
Flowers quickly climbed to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart in its first week, knocking Taylor Swift’s Anti-Hero off the top spot after eight weeks. Miley sold an impressive 70,000 copies of the track in its first week, with sales continuing to rise.
It’s been almost a decade since Miley last had a No. 1 hit on the Hot 100 chart, with Wrecking Ball in September 2013.
In January, the singer released a bold music video for her latest single Flowers. The lyrics of the catchy pop tune hint at her past relationship with an actor, referencing the destruction of their shared home in Malibu due to a fire. Despite their wedding shortly after the incident, the couple ended their marriage in less than a year. The former flames, who met on the set of a film when they were teenagers, had a tumultuous relationship spanning nearly a decade.
In the video, the star exudes confidence as she sings about self-love. Dressed in a glamorous gold outfit with a hint of midriff, she confidently struts through the city at dusk. From buying herself flowers to dancing alone, she emphasizes her independence and ability to love herself better than anyone else.
The footage transitions from a serene cityscape to a lively hike in the Hollywood hills, showcasing the singer’s journey towards self-empowerment. With a mix of somber moments and upbeat energy, Miley Cyrus embraces her inner strength and self-reliance in the captivating music video.
Miley confidently strolls up a smooth path with a bounce in her step before the scene shifts to her in the backyard of her expansive Studio City house. Shedding her designer outfit, she begins to groove on the grass in stylish black lingerie while the sprinklers sprinkle over her. The popular Plastic Hearts singer then skillfully plunges into her lavish pool and gracefully swims towards the shallower end. Later on, she lounges on the edge of the pool, displaying her toned figure in a black lacy bra and underwear. With her wet hair brushed away from her face, Miley sensually moves her hands over her body as the song’s lyrics play in the background. The video transitions to Miley, still in her black outfit, demonstrating her intense workout routine with battle ropes, resistance training, and some suggestive hip thrusts. The following scene captures Miley in a steamy shower, baring her backside as she raises her arms and closes her eyes in the cascading water.
Miley makes a dramatic entrance in a white robe and a towel wrapped around her hair, energetically searching through her closet. She decides to ditch the top and wears an oversized black blazer with matching trousers and sandals. With confidence, she walks through the luxurious hallway before breaking into dance in different rooms, including a stunning living area with a grand piano and floor-to-ceiling windows.
As the night sets in, the backyard is illuminated with blue and purple lights, adding to the mood. Miley playfully lets her blazer slip off her shoulders, teasing the audience. The video ends with Miley catching her breath, hands on her hips, staring directly at the camera.
The music video is for “Flowers,” the first single from Miley’s highly anticipated eighth studio album, Endless Summer Vacation.
