During a recent conversation with Pamela Anderson for CR Fashion Book, Miley Cyrus discussed their collaboration on the 2024 film The Last Showgirl.
The 58-year old actress stated that due to the most recent Los Angeles fires, there was no premiere for the film, but female superstars spent private time together and “had (their) own little chat.”
The Grammy award winning musician added that while they don’t see each other often, the Canadian thespian star remains a source of inspiration, adding:
“I feel like I’ve had a couple of guiding lights throughout my career, and you’ve definitely been one of them – whether we check in every couple of years or you come to a show.” And mentioning her godmother and long-time collaborator, country legend Dolly Parton, as a constant influence, she said “During the fires, when there was so much devastation and grief, in those moments I always thought of Dolly Parton.” “Through her music and her gift for making people happy, she’s always been medicinal in those times. She always tells me that moments of trauma aren’t times to shut down or give up as entertainers.” “It’s our duty – one of the reasons we chose this calling – to be a source of joy and inspiration during moments of trouble.”
Acknowledging the challenges involved with striking the right tone during difficult times, the 32-year old musician admitted “There’s a balance, and even some controversy, in how people feel you should respond in times like that,” she stated. “But I think the way we showed up reflected who we are as artists.”
Pamela Anderson starred in The Last Showgirl in which Miley Cyrus sang and co-wrote the end-credits song, ‘Beautiful That Way.’
