Her personal life, public image, and performances have often sparked controversy and received widespread media coverage.

Cyrus, a daughter of country music singer Billy Ray Cyrus, emerged as a teen idol while portraying the title character of the Disney Channel television series Hannah Montana (2006–2011).

Cyrus's EPs "The Time of Our Lives" (2009) and "She Is Coming" (2019) also debuted in the top-five. Plastic Hearts became Cyrus's most acclaimed album, and her first entry on the Billboard Rock Chart, debuting atop the chart. It included the lead single "Midnight Sky". Her other singles include the US top ten-charting "See You Again", "7 Things", "The Climb", "Party in the U.S.A.", "Can't Be Tamed", "We Can't Stop", "Malibu", "Without You"; and the chart-topping "Wrecking Ball".
