Miley Cyrus performs an acoustic rendition of "Flowers" in her new EP.
Spotify just gave Miley Cyrus fans the ultimate gift. The streaming platform has released "Billions Club Live with Miley Cyrus: A Concert Film", capturing her exclusive Paris performance for top listeners. The film premiered Wednesday (July 23) and remains available only on Spotify.
Last month, the Grammy-winning artist treated a select group of fans to an intimate show at Maxim's de Paris, performing her billion-stream hits including:
The 30-minute concert film gives all 59 million of her monthly Spotify listeners access to what was originally an exclusive experience. It features the full performance plus never-before-seen backstage moments, offering a rare glimpse into Cyrus's connection with her most dedicated fans.
"Being part of the Billions Club is an honor, but it's not everything," Cyrus told the crowd while dressed in a shimmering blue gown. "Each of you is a piece of a billion. Without you, the billion doesn't exist. That's how crucial you are to my success and confidence."
This marks the second installment in Spotify's premium Billions Club Live series, following The Weeknd's 2024 performance. The program celebrates artists with songs surpassing one billion streams through:
The release comes just weeks after Cyrus's latest album Something Beautiful debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200, proving her enduring star power despite her decision to step back from touring.
"I achieve my goals because of your support," Cyrus emphasized during the emotional performance. Now through this film, that support circle gets to expand exponentially.
Stream "Billions Club Live with Miley Cyrus: A Concert Film" exclusively on Spotify now.
Just weeks after her Spotify Billions Club concert film dazzled fans, Miley Cyrus is back with another gift: a surprise acoustic EP titled Flowers (Unplugged), released overnight. The three-track project features raw, stripped-down versions of her record-smashing hits, including a soulful piano rework of “Flowers”, a haunting acoustic take on “Used to Be Young”, and a never-before-heard live rendition of “Jaded” recorded at her Paris performance.
The EP, which hit streaming platforms at midnight, comes with a minimalist video of Cyrus singing “Flowers” in an empty studio, dressed in an oversized blazer and barefoot a stark contrast to the glittering glam of her Spotify Billions Club film.
“Sometimes the raw version is the realest one,” she wrote on Instagram alongside the announcement. “These songs mean so much to me, and I wanted you to hear them like this, just me, a mic, and the truth.”
Fans immediately flooded social media with praise, with one writing, “HER VOICE IS A NATIONAL TREASURE,” while another joked, “Miley really said ‘let me remind y’all I don’t NEED autotune.’”
The surprise drop follows Cyrus’ recent interview with Rolling Stone, where she hinted at more intimate releases. “I love the spectacle of big performances, but right now, I’m in a phase where less feels like more,” she said. “I want to connect in a way that doesn’t require pyrotechnics.”
While the Plastic Hearts singer has been vocal about her decision to step back from touring, she’s clearly not slowing down creatively. Earlier this year, she released Something Beautiful, her critically acclaimed eighth studio album, and its accompanying visual film. Now, with Flowers (Unplugged), she’s giving fans yet another way to experience her music raw, unfiltered, and powerfully personal.
