00:00Miley Cyrus is making a pretty major change to her identity, and her dad, Billy Ray Cyrus, is actually supporting
00:08it.
00:08As Miley prepares for her 10th studio album, Bass Persuades, she has started using just Miley professionally,
00:17dropping Cyrus from her branding and social media presentation.
00:22The timing is part of a new musical era.
00:25Miley announced the album on September 1st, saying the project explores everything from heartbreak and vulnerability to love and personal
00:35growth.
00:36It's set for release September 18th.
00:39But here's where things get interesting.
00:42Billy Ray publicly defended the decision, calling it a natural progression for an iconic superstar.
00:49He compared Miley's one-name identity to legends like Cher, Dolly Parton, Elvis, and Prince.
00:58He also revealed that he once considered performing simply as Cyrus.
01:03There's been speculation that the change could be connected to the Cyrus family's complicated past,
01:10but there's no confirmation of that, and Billy Ray's own comments suggest he supports her.
01:15Now, Miley is preparing for her next chapter, including two Hollywood Bowl performances in Los Angeles on October 16 and
01:2518.
