Billy Ray Cyrus is one proud father to watch his daughter Miley Cyrus earn a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame — and he’s going the extra mile to make sure the street is spic and span for the occasion.
“@mileycyrus I am coming in early to clean and shine the sidewalks before the big day,” Billy Ray, 64, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, May 9. “It’s only once in a lifetime, a Daddy from Flatwoods, Kentucky gets to see his little girl … evolve into an actress into a full-fledged rock star ⭐️.”
News broke on Friday, May 8, that Miley, 33, will receive the coveted star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in a May 22 ceremony.
“Time for a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame!!!! Can’t make this up,” Billy Ray gushed on Saturday. “Art … imitating life … imitating art once again in the Cyrus family.”
Miley got her big break playing Miley Stewart/Hannah Montana on Disney Channel’s Hannah Montana, an early 2000s sitcom about a pop star’s double life as a normal middle school student. Billy Ray, like in real life, played Miley’s dad and a famed country music singer. Miley’s onscreen alter ego even got a star in a 2008 episode titled “Hannah in the Streets with Diamonds.”
In another tribute, Billy Ray gushed that Miley’s honor was “well-deserved.”
“It’s a long way from Tennessee to Hollywood @mileycyrus! And you did it girl,” he wrote on Friday. “Congratulations on your well-deserved star on the @hwdwalkoffame! Remember those nights you spoke about when I’d sneak ya out of our hotel and we would go lurk on those dirty sidewalks !!! And you would point out all the chewing gum because you knew it made me sick!!!! 🤢So proud of you 👏🏻 Love ya. ♥️.”
Miley is one of Billy Ray’s five children with ex-wife Tish Cyrus. In addition to Miley, the exes share Brandi, 38, Trace, 37, Braison, 32, and Noah, 26. (Billy Ray adopted Brandi and Trace, Tish’s kids from a past relationship, when they got married in 1993. He is also father of son Christopher, 34, whom he shares with ex Kristin Luckey.)
Miley and Billy Ray’s bond, however, fractured upon her parents’ divorce. They eventually mended fences last year.
“My dad and I have had our challenges over the years,” Miley wrote in a March 2025 statement. “Now, in my 30s, family is my priority above all else. I’m at peace knowing bridges have been built and time has done a lot of healing. Grateful for the good health and love that flows through my family.”
Tish, 58, is now married to Dominic Purcell, while Billy Ray has found love with Elizabeth Hurley.
