Pop icon Miley Cyrus recently admitted in an interview that she had to come up with a sneaky way to hide all of her drug costs from her accountant to keep them under wraps.
The Grammy winner, shared on the “Every Single Album” podcast that the illegal expenses were her “biggest cost” when she was making her 2015 album, “Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz.”
“We called them vintage clothes,” she explained. “And every time [my accountant] saw me, she’d be like, ‘Where’s that, like, $15,000 original John Lennon T-shirt that you bought?’ It’s like, ‘Oh, it’s upstairs.’”
Cyrus stated that to further throw off the finance professional, she would lie and say that the clothes were being stored away because they were “really delicate” and she wanted to “protect” them.
“So I bought a lot of vintage clothes that year,” the “Flowers” singer added.
Further reflecting on her past drug use, Cyrus later said, “I’m so glad I survived that time in my life.”
“I would definitely not encourage anyone else to go this hard, but the fact that I got through it, I’m very glad I got to do it,” the “Wrecking Ball” singer concluded.
When she was younger, Cyrus was very candid with the public about her liking to dabble with substances.
She told Rolling Stone in 2013, “Hollywood is a coke town, but weed is so much better. And molly, too.
“Those are happy drugs—social drugs. They make you want to be with friends. You’re out in the open. You’re not in a bathroom.”
The “Party in the U.S.A.” singer then got sober in 2017 after rekindling her relationship with now-ex-husband Liam Hemsworth at the time.
“I haven’t smoked weed in three weeks, which is the longest I’ve ever [gone without it]. I’m not doing drugs, I’m not drinking, I’m completely clean right now!” she previously told Billboard magazine.
However, Cyrus admitted in November 2020 that she briefly relapsed amid the pandemic but said that she got herself back on track within just two weeks.
