Miley Cyrus Leaves Dad Billy Ray Cyrus Out of Grammys Acceptance Speech

Everything's coming up roses for Miley Cyrus—except her relationship with dad Billy Ray Cyrus.
The "Used to Be Young" singer had a monumental night at the 2024 Grammy Awards on Feb. 4, where her single "Flowers" nabbed her trophies for Best Pop Solo Performance and Record Of The Year and while Miley thanked several people in her speech for the latter, she left off her country musician father.
After thanking her team, everyone who collaborated on the song and Columbia Records, the 31-year-old shouted out "her mommy" Tish Cyrus, sister Brandi Cyrus and boyfriend Maxx Morando, who were in the audience.
"Thank you all so much," she continued, jokingly noting, "I don't think I forgot anyone but I might've forgotten underwear. Bye!"
Although Miley and Billy Ray once had a close relationship—even working together on four seasons and one film for the Hannah Montana franchise—a source previously told E! News they haven't been on the best terms since his 2022 divorce from Tish.
"The divorce between her parents have put a strain on her relationship with her dad and it's been hard to connect with him in the last year," the source revealed in 2022. "She hopes they can eventually work on their relationship."
While Miley was thrilled to receive her first Grammy, she was good, she was gold before accepting the trophy.
"This award is amazing, but I really hope it doesn't change anything because my life was beautiful yesterday," she admitted. "Not everyone will get a Grammy, but everyone in this world is spectacular, so please don't think this is important, even though it's very important."
