LEAVE ME OUT OF IT

How Miley Cyrus Dealt With Dad’s Nightmare Inauguration Performance

The pop star’s brother, Trace, claimed their dad threatened legal action after he expressed concern over his performance at an inaugural ball.

Miley Cyrus reportedly wants nothing to do with the family drama after her father’s bizarre performance at President Donald Trump’s inaugural celebrations last week sparked public concern from her brother, Trace Cyrus. “Miley used to feel overwhelmed by the family drama. She worked hard to remove herself. She’s not about to get involved again,” a source told People magazine. “She’s in a great place now. She’s thriving and looking out for herself,” they added. Trace was quick to extend a helping hand to the pair’s father, Billy Ray Cyrus, after his questionable performance at Trump’s Liberty Ball. “I don’t know what you’re struggling with exactly but I think I have a pretty good idea & I’d love to help you if you would open up and receive the help. You know how to reach me,” Trace wrote to his dad on Instagram Thursday—a message that Miley “signed off” on, according to a source that spoke with Page Six. A few days after, however, Trace returned to the platform to announce that his dad wasn’t receptive to his message and claimed that he threatened him with legal action. “Dad my message was beyond loving,” Trace wrote in a follow-up post on Saturday. “For you to threaten me with legal action for wanting you to get help is a disgrace. Pappy is looking down at you with such disappointment I can assure you.”
