During a recent appearance on the Every Single Album podcast, Miley Cyrus was asked “why the fuck” Dua Lipa ended up on her 2020 album “Plastic Hearts” with the song “Prisoner.” Cyrus responded:
“Okay well that wasn’t my idea. No shade to Dua Lipa, it just isn’t cohesive with the album. She would’ve been much better on ‘Endless Summer Vacation’, like she would’ve been great on ‘Wildcard’ or ‘River’ – could you imagine?”
She added that Dua’s presence on the track was “medicinal,” explaining that her team was trying to “salvage a sinking career” because they weren’t happy with the direction of the record.
“They were like, ‘Uh-oh, this was not what we had in mind to un-sink this ship,’” Miley jokes. “They were like, ‘Oh great, here’s this, like, pile of shit album she gave us, let’s spray some Dua Lipa [on it], that’ll make it better.’”
