Miley Cyrus’s father is the legendary country music performer Billy Ray Cyrus, which probably explains why there are strong country influences in her songs. Miley Cyrus is a well-known pop musician because of hits like “Flowers” and “Wrecking Ball,” but her work is also known for its pop influences. This may be the reason for Cyrus’s outstanding 2018 rendition of the country/bluegrass song “Man of Constant Sorrow” at the American Institute; the video has received over 8 million views since going viral.

Cyrus’ performance was part of a tribute program honoring actor George Clooney, who received the AFI Lifetime Achievement Award. George Clooney’s film “Oh Brother, when Art Thou?” contains a scene in which the lead character sings a song that has become famous in movie history. With her deep, country-tinged vocals, Cyrus added a new level of intensity and fire to the song, which beautifully captured the moment.

Clooney clapped passionately and grinned widely when the singer nodded to him, indicating that everyone else was also enjoying it. When Cyrus ended, the live audience screamed and whooped. Many viewers have praised Cyrus’s versatility as a performer, and the show has garnered nearly 4,000 comments on social media. A stunned onlooker, mesmerized by her extraordinary gift, distinctive voice, and limitless imagination, exclaimed, “She really can do it all!”

Just have a listen to Cyrus’s 2019 rendition of the well-known country music hit “Jolene,” performed at Glastonbury. It shows Dolly Parton rocking the song live. Wearing leather pants, a white crop top, high-heeled boots, and an abundance of gold jewelry, Cyrus epitomizes feminine power as she wanders around the stage, putting her pop-infused touch to a song that is now considered a benchmark of country music.
