Miley Cyrus Fans Shocked by Tish's 'Hot Guy' Dating Advice!

Miley Cyrus fans have criticized her mother Tish after learning the dating advice she received

Miley Cyrus Opens Up About Shocking Parenting Advice from Her Mother

In a jaw-dropping interview, Miley Cyrus has revealed that her mother, Tish Cyrus, once gave her some rather...unconventional dating advice. The 32-year-old singer sat down with her mom and sisters Brandi, 38, and Noah, 25, in a candid chat where they dished out the tea on love, family, and relationships.

According to Miley, Tish had a peculiar rule of thumb when it came to choosing partners: she wanted Miley to stay with men who were hot, regardless of their character. This shocking revelation has left fans stunned, and many are questioning Tish's parenting skills.

The bombshell news comes as Miley reflects on her past relationships, including her high-profile romance with Liam Hemsworth. The couple tied the knot in 2019 but separated just a year later after an on-again, off-again decade-long romance. It seems that Miley has finally found happiness with drummer Maxx Morando, whom she's been dating since 2021.

But back to Tish's questionable advice. In the interview with The Cut, Miley revealed that her mom would often encourage her to stay in relationships because the men were attractive. When pressed for more information, Tish laughed and said, "Well, at least you get to look at somebody who's frigging hot!"

Miley was quick to correct her mom, saying, "No, I ended up with someone [Maxx Morando] who means a lot to me and treats me really well and respects me." She went on to note that Tish's checklist for an ideal partner never included qualities like honesty, trust, respect, or open communication.

In fact, Miley joked that her mom's criteria were more superficial: "Mom was like, 'They need to be tall,'" she teased. This revelation has left many fans feeling uneasy and wondering if Tish's priorities are skewed.

The Cyrus family's candid comments have sparked a heated debate on Reddit, with some users expressing shock and disappointment at Tish's parenting advice. One user commented, "Jesus what an awkward interview. Get Tish some media training." Another asked, "Is this a real conversation?"

Others were quick to defend Miley, saying she's "well-adjusted" despite her mom's questionable guidance. One fan wrote, "Yeah actually you know what? We don't give Miley enough credit for being as well adjusted as she is, this is insane."

As the drama unfolds, it's clear that not everyone is buying Tish's parenting skills. A Reddit user quipped, "I am very thankful Tish is not my mother." Another wrote, "Well that really just tells us everything we need to know about them. I'm surprised how well-adjusted Miley turned out."

Meanwhile, Tish has been making headlines of her own. She split from Billy Ray Cyrus in 2022 after 28 years of marriage and finalized their divorce in 2023. Just a few months later, she tied the knot with Prison Break star Dominic Purcell.

The Cyrus family's unconventional approach to relationships is raising eyebrows, but it's clear that Miley has learned from her experiences and is now prioritizing what truly matters in a partner.
