Miley Cyrus has something beautiful in store for her fans, with the pop star announcing her highly anticipated new album is arriving this spring featuring 13 new songs.
In an Instagram post Monday (March 24), Cyrus shared the project’s cover art — an ethereal headshot of the star gazing softly into the camera while modeling a crystal 1997 Thierry Mugler headpiece — and revealed that Something Beautiful will arrive May 30 via Columbia Records. Cyrus co-executive produced the LP with Shawn Everett.
According to the post’s caption, the Something Beautiful artwork serves as “a striking nod to the album’s bold aesthetic and visual storytelling.”
The official announcement comes about a week after Cyrus first started properly teasing her new era via mysterious black-and-white posters that showed her silhouette wearing the angular Mugler design. Leading up to Monday, the Hannah Montana alum had also made the mysterious photo her profile picture on social media as well as posted it to her website.
Something Beautiful will mark Cyrus’ first album since 2023’s Endless Summer Vacation, which reached No. 3 on the Billboard 200. The LP is home to eight-week Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 single “Flowers,” which also won record of the year and best pop solo performance at the 2024 Grammys, marking Cyrus’ first-ever Recording Academy honors.
The “Wrecking Ball” artist previously teased that her upcoming record would double as a visual album, taking inspiration from Pink Floyd’s The Wall — just with a “better wardrobe and more glamorous and filled with pop culture,” as she told Harper’s Bazaar in November.
“I have this heart-first attachment to it,” she continued at the time. “The visual component of [my album] is driving the sound. It was important for me that every song has these healing sound properties. The songs, whether they’re about destruction or heartbreak or death, they’re presented in a way that is beautiful, because the nastiest times of our life do have a point of beauty.”
