Demi Lovato and Miley Cyrus’ friendship wasn’t always merry and has gone through a tumultuous patch in the past. As the singers have navigated their way to form a closer bond, fans have also been eager to know about their relationship.
So, here are all the details fans need to know about Lovato and Cyrus’ long-standing friendship.
Are Demi Lovato and Miley Cyrus friends?
Demi Lovato and Miley Cyrus were big stars in the early 2000s as they starred in popular Disney projects. While Cyrus starred in the TV show Hannah Montana, Lovato was making her mark in the industry with Sonny With a Chance.
According to a report by Bustle, in 2008, Cyrus mocked the “Sorry Not Sorry” singer and fellow Disney actress and singer Selena Gomez’s YouTube channel in a clip. Cyrus made the video with her then-BFF Mandy Jiroux, which quickly became viral. In the video, the “Flowers” singer also reportedly took a dig at Lovato’s teeth, but later clarified she and Jiroux were just messing around and even apologized.
However, everything seemed good between the two after that. Demi Lovato even attended the premiere of Miley Cyrus’ Hannah Montana film in 2009. Then, in 2011, Cyrus showed support for Lovato after she underwent treatment for substance abuse.
While speaking to Seventeen Magazine in 2012, Lovato confessed that she and Cyrus sometimes fought. She conveyed, “When we fight, it’s brutal. Then two days later, we’re like, ‘I love you and I miss you!'” However, in 2014, Lovato again shook the internet when she disclosed in a radio interview that she and Cyrus “don’t have anything in common.” Both singers then appeared to go their separate ways.
Three years later, Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato came together again. They released their albums, Younger Now and Tell Me You Love Me, respectively, on the same day in 2017. Lovato also supported the “Wrecking Ball” singer’s journey to sobriety. The following year, Cyrus even shared a photo of them attending the March for Our Lives protest together on X (formerly Twitter).
Later, in 2020, the two music icons finally addressed their past feud and reconnected. According to a report by CNN, Demi Lovato appeared on one of Cyrus’s Instagram Live sessions. Miley Cyrus stated, “I feel like you’ve always been such a light and that’s why we connected at 14.”
