Miley Cyrus has a personal and professional connection to the date of August 25, which was historically important to her godmother, Dolly Parton. Cyrus released her single "Used to Be Young" on this date in 2023, which coincided with significant events in her life and career. The date marks the birthday of Cyrus' father, Billy Ray Cyrus, and also holds sentimental value for her family. Parton, who was Miley's godmother, had a close bond with the singer and they collaborated on various projects over the years. Miley has referred to Parton as a mother figure and has yet to publicly address her godmother's recent passing.
