Miley Cyrus has received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, calling the honor “an accumulation of devotion” during an emotional ceremony on Hollywood Boulevard. The 33-year-old singer and actress, who first rose to fame playing Hannah Montana on the Disney Channel, reflected on her career, her artistic journey and the meaning of the milestone as she accepted the 2,845th star.
Cyrus said the recognition was different from a prize or competition, describing it as something built over time through commitment and perseverance. She told the audience that the star was not something to “win” or “chase,” but a symbol of sustained dedication to her craft. She added that seeing her name in gold and pink terrazzo was a deeply personal and surreal moment.
In her speech, Cyrus also looked ahead, saying she planned to keep creating and that her work was driven by a desire to continue the cycle of artistic expression. She said she hoped her legacy would resonate with future generations and leave behind something that could stir emotion, creativity and joy. Cyrus said the day would be one she would never forget.
She ended by thanking her fans, her family and her “future family,” a reference to her fiancé, musician Maxx Morando, who attended the ceremony. The event brought together several members of her family and close supporters, including her mother, Tish Cyrus, and her sister, Brandi Cyrus.
Also present were designer Donatella Versace, who dressed Cyrus for the ceremony, and actress Anya Taylor-Joy, both of whom joined the celebration on the red carpet. The appearance highlighted the strong support surrounding Cyrus as she marked another major moment in her career.
Walk of Fame producer Ana Martinez praised Cyrus’s influence on entertainment, saying she deserved the honor for her lasting impact on the industry. Martinez noted that many generations of young girls have watched Cyrus grow and change in the public eye, finding inspiration in her evolution and creative fearlessness.
The ceremony added another landmark to Cyrus’s career, which has spanned music, television and film. From her early Disney Channel fame to her success as a Grammy Award-winning artist, Cyrus has built a career defined by reinvention, visibility and cultural influence. The Walk of Fame star now stands as a public tribute to that long-running presence in entertainment and to the devotion she said has shaped her path.
