Miley Cyrus’ mom Tish Cyrus told her to “stay with the wrong guy” because he was “hot”.
Miley Cyrus claims her mom gives terrible dating advice
The 32-year-old pop star – who was previously married to actor Liam Hemsworth – has accused her mother of giving her terrible dating advice over the years revealing Tish taught her “the wrong way” to handle relationships and she had to “learn the right way by myself”.
In a joint interview with The Cut, Miley said: “Mom’s always wanted me to stay with the wrong guy ’cause they’re hot.”
Tish then claimed her advice has worked because Miley is now dating drummer Maxx Morando, saying: “Well, that was great advice because after so many years, you’re kind of over it and you’re like … In a relationship. At least you get to look at somebody that’s hot!”
Miley then corrected her mother, adding: “No, I ended up with a person who means a lot to me and treats me really well and respects me.
“I had to learn that the hard way because my mommy taught me the wrong way and then I had to learn the right way by myself …
“I had to find someone who treats me with respect and then Mom never really put that on the top three of her must-haves. Mom was like: ‘They need to be tall’ … My man’s hot as hell … But my man also respects me.”
Miley’s sister Brandi then pointed out their mom has “evolved” and the singer pointed out Tish has just “found someone that is hot and respects her” since meeting her now-husband actor Dominic Purcell.
The Flowers singer added: “That’s always the goal.”
Miley previously insisted her raunchy image caused her relationships to “fall apart”.
The singer recalled how she had a “hard time” in 2013 after causing controversy with her naked appearance in her Wrecking Ball video and twerking on stage with Robin Thicke at the MTV Video Music Awards, and she found it hard to date because potential partners didn’t like her sharing her “sexual expression” with the world.
Miley – whose engagement to Liam ended that year before they reconciled three years later – said on the Wondery podcast Reclaiming with Monica Lewinsky: “I lost everything during that time in my personal life because of the choices I was making professionally.
“If I kept dressing or acting a certain way, my relationships fell apart. No one wanted to date me because they didn’t want to be with a woman [whose] sexual expression part was not for them. It was like shared with the world.
“So, like, guys, when I would try to date, when I was dating, or who I was engaged to at the time, that didn’t work out because I was sharing a part of myself that men wanted to be saved for them only.”
