The wild-child pop star follows her heart.
Has Miley Cyrus been here before? The hardware store, the courthouse, the desolate Main Street of this town in the hills outside Los Angeles—all of it looks so familiar. Then again it might look that way to anyone, given that it’s a Disney-owned set on which countless movies, TV shows, and commercials have been filmed. Considering the relatively long arc of Miley’s career, it’s possible that the déjà vu she’s experiencing is warranted. She squints, rifling through her memory. Suddenly her round blue eyes open wide. “I knew it!” she shouts when her manager confirms that she shot a video here for her 2013 album, Bangerz. “Wow,” she says. “That feels like another lifetime ago.”
It was, in a way. At 24, Miley Cyrus has had more lives than your average cat-bikini-wearing pop star, having been a child actress, an art rocker, a pop-culture icon, and an Internet meme by an age most people are still figuring out their first identity.
