Miley Cyrus drops surname, hints at self-titled tenth album

Miley Cyrus has removed her last name from all social media profiles and is teasing a possible self-titled tenth studio record.

Miley Cyrus has altered her digital branding by eliminating her surname, now appearing simply as "Miley" on platforms. This move mirrors the mononymous style of icons like Cher and Beyoncé and coincides with speculation about a forthcoming tenth studio album that may bear her first name alone. A striking new profile image shows her bathed in red light, wearing an oversized Saint Laurent faux-fur coat, hinting at a dramatic aesthetic shift.

Earlier this year, she told Wonderland magazine that the record will center on a multifaceted love narrative tied to her personal evolution. She emphasized that the love theme extends beyond her partnership with longtime rocker Maxx Morando, whom she recently announced her engagement to, encompassing self-affection as well. The artist’s 2007 debut was titled "Meet Miley Cyrus," suggesting a full-circle moment if the new release is self-titled. Fans are watching for further clues as the album rollout approaches.

Why it matters

The name change signals a branding shift that could shape the promotion and identity of Miley Cyrus' next album.
