Noah Cyrus has already denied being Miley Cyrus’ sister: ‘It took away my identity’

The singer Noah Cyrus revealed that she felt “stripped” of her own identity when people compared her to her sister, Miley Cyrus. Both are daughters of the country music star. Billy Ray Cyrus and actress and producer Tish Cyrus.

Noahwho is seven years younger, wasn’t even a teenager when Miley became a child actress and singer famous for the series Hannah Montana (2006), from Disney. The singer said that, at times, she denied being Miley.

I had a really hard time being part of a public family and I struggled a bit with it because it wasn’t exactly my choice.

In a long interview with the magazine Rolling Stone USA, Noah told how difficult it was growing up in the shadows of a famous person, and how public life led her to drug addiction. Noah she was always surrounded by ‘people who got drugs easily’, and because of a boyfriend, she started using anxiolytics.

When I felt it was possible to silence things for a second and numb the pain, it was over. It kind of becomes a dark pit, a bottomless pit.

Noah also said the drug caused her to spend most of the Covid-19 pandemic sleeping until 8pm, which even resulted in memory loss. The singer exemplified with the situation of an interview at the launch of her EP, The End of Everythingin which she could barely stay awake.

“I was completely dozing and falling asleep, and unable to keep my head up or keep my eyes open because I was so far away,” she said of the unaired interview.

Noah will release their first full-length album, titled The Hardest Part, on the 16th of September. Check out the first single from the project below, ‘Ready to Go’:
