Miley Cyrus Says Godmother Dolly Parton Shaded Her for ‘Used to Be Young’: ‘Should Have Been My Song!’

“I actually listened to that song yesterday, and I was asking myself, ‘Did I really need to put this out?'” Cyrus told ‘Harper’s Bazaar’ of the hit

Dolly Parton had mixed feelings about one of her goddaughter Miley Cyrus‘ recent hits.

In a new cover story interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Cyrus opened up about releasing her vulnerable 2023 hit “Used to Be Young” and why Parton was a bit shady upon hearing the song for the first time.

“She goes, ‘I don’t know if I like that new ‘Used to Be Young’ song because it’s not fair that you’re singing about not being young when you’re young and beautiful,” said Cyrus, 31, of Parton, 78, whom the “Flowers” singer recalled adding, “‘And here I am — I’m like 80 — and I’m like, That should have been my song!'”
