Miley Cyrus Reacts to 2025 Golden Globe Nomination, Shouts Out ‘Gracious’ Pamela Anderson

Miley Cyrus is getting her flowers with her song “Beautiful That Way” receiving a 2025 Golden Globe nomination this week — something the pop star humbly reacted to on X Thursday (Dec. 12).

Three days after the star’s contribution to Gia Coppola’s The Last Showgirl soundtrack received a best original song nod Dec. 9, Cyrus shared a recent photo of herself and wrote that it’s “an honor” to be nominated alongside her “friends and collaborators” Andrew Wyatt and Lykee Li, who helped write and produce the track.

She also shouted out the film’s leading lady, Pamela Anderson, who the “Wrecking Ball” singer said is “graciously sharing her moment with us.”

“I am continuing to root for her, it’s so fun to watch her shine,” Cyrus added. “Thank you Gia Coppola for inviting me to be a part of your gem ‘The Last Showgirl.’”

“Beautiful That Way” is up for best original song alongside “Compress / Repress” from Challengers, “El Mal” and “Mi Camino” from Emilia Pérez, “Forbidden Road” from Better Man and “Kiss The Sky” form The Wild Robot. On the same day Golden Globe nominations went live, the Hannah Montana alum released the ballad in full for the first time on YouTube.

“Spin baby spin/ The night always falls/ At least you had your day,” she sings over delicate strings. “Now the light shines on some other girl/ Who’s beautiful that way.”

Released in September, The Last Showgirl finds the Baywatch icon’s character — a showgirl named Shelly — navigating life after her show is abruptly shut down. According to Variety, Cyrus recently gushed about her lifelong connection to the actress, revealing that Anderson is “deeply embedded into my earliest memories with my mother.”

“We both worshipped Pam and still do,” the Grammy winner continued. “I took the emotion I have towards those times with my mom and the few times we’ve gotten to spend with Pam. I thought a lot about what this film means to her not just as an actress but as the special person that she is.”

Following a blockbuster run with 2023’s Endless Summer Vacation — which reached No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and spawned eight-week Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit “Flowers” — Cyrus is now working on her next album. In November, she revealed that the LP will be heavily inspired by Pink Floyd’s The Wall, “but with a better wardrobe and more glamorous and filled with pop culture,” she told Harper’s Bazaar.

“It was important for me that every song has these healing sound properties,” she added. “The songs, whether they’re about destruction or heartbreak or death, they’re presented in a way that is beautiful, because the nastiest times of our life do have a point of beauty.”
