- Story Text: Miley Cyrus is steering away from marijuana, alcohol and nipple pasties and rolling out a new sound that could help people take her more seriously after she was dubbed one of pop music's bad girls.
The singer, whose father is country musician Billy Ray Cyrus and whose godmother is Dolly Parton, released the video for new single "Malibu" on Tuesday (May 11). The video for the breezy pop track shows Cyrus running with colorful balloons on the beach and laying in a field of flowers.
Speaking to Billboard Magazine in an interview published May 3, the former Disney star, 24, said she wanted to be "super clear and sharp" and focus on a new collection of songs that takes her back to her country music roots.
Billboard said it was a love song inspired by her fiance, actor Liam Hemsworth, with whom she reunited last year after a 2013 breakup.
Cyrus, who rose to fame on the Disney Channel show "Hannah Montana," ditched her innocent image in 2013, admitting to drug use and appearing scantily clad in public and in music videos.
Her upcoming new album will feature more acoustic songs and melodies written by Cyrus, and will include a song for Hillary Clinton, whom she supported in last year's U.S. presidential election, and another anthem dedicated to women in the workplace, Billboard said. - Copyright Holder: FILE REUTERS (CAN SELL)
