Miley Cyrus Says Her Upcoming Film Is Not A “Movie”
Miley Cyrus appears on Jimmy Kimmel live this week to chat about her upcoming album, Something Beautiful, where early on, she revealed to him that people ask her to autograph weird things — like body parts. She assured him that there’s probably nothing she won’t sign for fans. She talked about her willingness to do lots of different covers, especially when fans have suggestions for them. Miley added that she still has a number of wigs from Hannah Montana and a pair of boots from the show.
On top of the album dropping My 30, Miley’s releasing a sister film to go with the project and she points out that it’s not a movie.
Because a movie has a point. Not that this doesn’t quite have a point, but I feel like there’s a A, B, and C and the whole point of a movie is just to get to C. You know, and I don’t like when I can assume what C is because then I can just skip the whole thing.
So, this one, the good news about it is there’s not really so much of the synopsis because the music is the story. Every song is storytelling essentially — talking about, you know, being from Nashville and growing up around country music. That’s how stories get told. They’re around a campfire with an acoustic guitar, and so even though this has become very kind of psychedelic and, you know, over the top for everything that I do, but at the end of it, really the heart of it is the just the music — is the storytelling.
So there was no need for characterization because I’m the character and I never want to become something or someone that I’m not. So, basically yeah. Basically my movie has no story.
The film will be in theaters for one night only on Thursday, June 12. Peep the trailer here:
After the interview on Kimmel, Miley performed “More to Lose.” This is the same song she’s talking about singing in front of “a couple of exes.”
