Miley Cyrus is expanding the deluxe edition of her latest album with two high-profile collaborations. Something Beautiful Deluxe is set for release this Friday and will include two new bonus tracks: Secrets, featuring Mick Fleetwood and Lindsey Buckingham of Fleetwood Mac, and Lockdown, with Talking Heads frontman David Byrne. The package also preserves all 13 songs from the original Something Beautiful album, which arrived on May 30, according to a video the singer posted on Instagram on Wednesday promoting the deluxe edition.
Fleetwood Mac figures loom large in the announcement. Mick Fleetwood, who helped form Fleetwood Mac in London in 1967, is joined by Lindsey Buckingham, who became a member of the band on New Year’s Eve 1974. The pairing signals a rare collaboration across generations of the iconic group, with Cyrus reaching into classic-rock lineage for the expanded edition. The two legends’ participation alongside Cyrus’s own team of producers underscores the project’s aim to blend vintage rock intelligence with Cyrus’s contemporary pop sensibility.
The two new collaborations are part of a broader set of enhancements beyond the guest appearances. In addition to Secrets and Lockdown, Something Beautiful Deluxe assembles the original 13 tracks that fans first heard on May 30, expanding the release with fresh collaborations rather than replacing the studio catalog. The move mirrors a broader industry trend of deluxe editions serving as both a celebratory and exploratory microphone for artists who want to recontextualize an album after its initial rollout.
Beyond the music, Cyrus’s public profile this month has touched on personal topics that resonate with fans. In a recent interview with The Cut, Cyrus discussed the dating guidance she has received from her mother, Tish Cyrus, and the broader dynamics within the Cyrus family. The matriarch’s unconventional advice—described by Miley as prioritizing attraction in past relationships—has been a talking point as Miley navigates her own relationships and public image. Cyrus has since described a shift in her approach, emphasizing qualities such as honesty, respect, and compatibility in a partner. The comments come as Miley has been linked publicly with drummer Maxx Morando, while her sister Noah Cyrus has discussed engagement rumors and family conversations about love and partnership.
The Cyrus family has remained in the public eye for reasons beyond Miley’s music. Noah Cyrus, who is engaged to fashion designer Pinkus, and Brandi Cyrus, who has commented on her own relationship with Matt Southcombe, have contributed to a broader conversation about love, trust, and the evolving standards the family holds for relationships. Miley’s own remarks in that interview—paired with the deluxe edition announcement—underscore a year in which musical projects are interwoven with personal evolution, media scrutiny, and ongoing collaborations that draw on long-running musical legacies as well as contemporary voices.
As Something Beautiful Deluxe nears its release window, fans—often dubbed Smilers—can anticipate a collection that honors Cyrus’s pop roots while inviting familiar faces from classic rock and art-rock to join in the creative conversation. The inclusion of Mick Fleetwood and Lindsey Buckingham alongside David Byrne’s guest feature reflects Cyrus’s pattern of blending the old with the new, a stride that keeps her studio work at the center of a broader musical conversation. With all original tracks retained and two landmark collaborations added, the deluxe edition is positioned as a milestone in Cyrus’s evolving discography and a nod to the enduring resonance of Fleetwood Mac and Talking Heads within contemporary pop culture.
