Miley Cyrus is reportedly struggling with the way her career is playing out. Despite being a Grammy winner with millions of fans across the globe, the singer may be looking to change things up and even go back to her teenage roots with a return to acting.
Sources tell The Daily Mail that Miley is seemingly at a crossroads and she’s trying to figure out what the next step on her career path will be. While music has appeared to be her first love, she’s allegedly not satisfied with the way her music career has gone.
Is Miley Cyrus Ready To Return To Acting?
“Miley is at a point in her life where she’s really trying to figure out who she is and, more importantly, what she wants to be beyond just being Miley Cyrus, the celebrity,” an insider dished. “Her new music hasn’t really taken off the way she wanted,” the insider said.
In September, Cyrus released the album “Bass Persuades,” and the following month she performed two sold-out shows at the Hollywood Bowl. However, despite the success, Miley is said to be considering going back to acting.
Fans know that Miley gained fame on the Disney Channel series Hannah Montana. She later went on to appear in movies such as The Last Song, So Undercover, and LOL. She also starred in a 2019 episode of the Netflix horror series Black Mirror. While romance and comedy has been Cyrus’ acting forte in the past, she’s ready for a more serious role.
Looking For The Perfect Role
Miley is reportedly open to both TV and film roles, but the part has to be just right, and she’s not willing to settle. “The problem is the kinds of scripts and roles she’s looking for haven’t really been coming her way,” the insider said. “She wants something serious, whether it’s a film or a television project, that gives her a chance to really act and show a different side of herself.”
Cyrus is looking for something that will cement her legacy, something that she can be proud of. “She wants to build something meaningful that lasts,” the insider said. “And right now, she’s trying to figure out how to get people to give her the chance to prove she can.”
