Miley Cyrus slammed for ‘rude' behaviour at fan meet-and-greet with Naomi Campbell
The singer was at the Rough Trade East music store and bar in London to meet fans and promote her new album, Something Beautiful.
Joining her was British supermodel Naomi Campbell, who features on the album on the funk-pop track, Every Girl You've Ever Loved.
But as the pair signed autographs, seemingly on autopilot, they appeared to be more interested in chatting to each other, much to the disappointment of their excited fans.
In a clip now going viral, Cyrus barely interacts with a fan who approach the table with her album in hand, nor does the singer look at the camera for a photo.
Instead, she continues to focus her attention on Campbell, who also appears to ignore fans gushing over her.
'Miley looked right at her and focused on Naomi right after. Cmon Miley,' one fan tweeted on X, as another commented, 'Oh that's just disrespectful.'
'I'm sure they didn't intend to but... this is just rude. If you can't give your attention to fans, then don't agree to autograph sessions where pictures are also offered,' another wrote, as one noted, 'I'm pretty sure people paid to see them so if you're going to charge at least be polite and give them the time they paid for.'
'Ew that's effed she prob waited hours for that rudeness,' yet another agreed.
Other users came to Cyrus' defence, calling for understanding as fan meet-and-greets are no walk in the park.
'It is rude. but they see 100s of not 1000s of people. To try and sit there and talk to each and every one of them is a bit much. Not trying to defend their actions or anything, just sayin,' one wrote.
'They have hundreds of fans to meet. I don't blame them for not giving one on one attention to each one,' wrote another.
Earlier this month, the Hannah Montana star was unexpectedly heckled by fans at a Q&A session at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York on June 6.
The pop star was at the event to promote her upcoming musical film, Something Beautiful, which is released in line with her album of the same name.
In videos posted online, Cyrus was in the middle of answering a question when a disgruntled fan shouted from the audience, 'We thought this was a concert. We paid $800.'
'Are you actually going to sing?' yelled another. 'Miley, sing The Climb!'
Cyrus then obliged and began to sing an a capella version of her 2009 hit, before abruptly stopping to ask the audience why 'you're not singing'.
After handling the awkward moment with grace, Cyrus then took to Instagram to thank everyone for coming along to the event.
'Seeing Something Beautiful on the big screen at @tribeca @beacontheatre surrounded by the screams of the audience, was so worth every bit of effort lovingly laboured into this visual album,' she wrote alongside photos from the event.
'Tonight was emotional, deep, fun & fabulous. All my favourite things, but YOU the crowd were my absolute favourite of all. I love you.'

Scottie Scheffler clears the air on British Open fart-gate
The Scottie Scheffler fart-gate took a brand new twist. On the 17th hole at the British Open last Thursday, when Scheffler was chipping to the green, the broadcast feed picked up someone passing gas. While some thought a fan was the culprit, Scheffler completely changed the narrative this week, the New York Post reports. Scheffler was featured on Barstool Sports' 'Pardon My Take' podcast and shed light on who is really to blame for the incident — himself. 'Yeah, that was me,' Scheffler admitted on the show. 'Oh yeah, that was me. 'You're out there for like six hours, you're eating some different food over there. Some stuff is going to happen. 'You never know with the boom mics there, you never know what they're going to pick up. I'm definitely surprised it hasn't happened more in the past picking up stuff like that. I literally didn't think anything about it then after we got inside, Xander [Schauffele] was showing me the video. He pulls up the video and I see myself standing on 17, and I'm like, 'Oh, I know what this is.'' Now that the truth is out, the gas might've helped fuel his shot as Scheffler almost chipped it straight into the hole. Scheffler finished Thursday 3-under par and continued to ride high into the weekend before he ran away with the British Open crown, his first time winning that major. The chasing group behind him never got within four strokes on the final day. Scheffler, before winning the event, was the world No. 1 golfer and the betting favourite to win the Claret Jug. 'It is a pretty special feeling,' Scheffler said after winning. 'It was a tough week; I battled hard all weekend. Today, once again, was a battle, but [I] played some really good golf. I'm fortunate to be standing here holding the trophy.' The British Open now gives Scheffler the third of the four major trophies in golf, as he needs the U.S. Open to complete the career grand slam.

How The Veronicas' 'Untouched' became their Hottest 100 debut in 2025
Please stand for your national anthem and number three placegetter in the Hottest 100 of Australian songs — 'Untouched' by The Veronicas. Written in Los Angeles by the sister duo of Jess and Lisa Origliasso, with German producer and songwriter Toby Gad whose credits include Beyoncé, John Legend, Fergie, Nicole Scherzinger and more), 'Untouched' explores the all-encompassing longing that's felt when you're physically separated from those you love. In The Veronicas' case, being on the other side of the world and away from their family in their early 20s. Released in 2007 and recognised as the Australian response to alternative pop icons like Avril Lavigne and P!NK, 'Untouched' was the first single in the US and UK from Hook Me Up, The Veronicas' second album, and delivered the sisters their first taste of international attention. Defying the hesitations of their record label at the time, 'Untouched' peaked at number two in Australia, number one in Ireland and reached the top 10 in Czech Republic, Canada, the Netherlands, the UK and New Zealand. Locking in double platinum in the US, and platinum in Australia and Ireland, 'Untouched' truly established The Veronicas as a pop force to be reckoned with. But it had never made a Hottest 100 countdown, until now. The power-pop heater opens with those iconic strings and then explodes into its fast-paced lyricism and tempo to match. It's certifiably a speedy song. Sitting at 177 BPM, 'Untouched' is one of the most amped-up tracks in the entire Hottest 100 of Australian Songs, narrowly behind Amyl and the Sniffers' 'Hertz' at 185 BPM. Something about them just makes you want to get up and go , and that's in the beat. The music video is an iconic piece of Australian cinematic history in itself. Filmed at the Marble Bar at Sydney's Hilton Hotel, it captures the essence of edgy teen fashion in the mid-2000s. Black lace, sweeping fringes, heavy eyeliner — a gothic, baroque moment seen throughout the era (looking at you, Panic! At The Disco and Fall Out Boy). It's no surprise that The Veronicas launched their own fashion range in major Australian department stores shortly after. While 'Untouched' had its time in pop culture around the time of its release — notably in TV series such as The Hills and 90210 — the song lived primarily in '00s pop party and throwback playlists until it found a renewed audience with the queer community. After Jessica was outed by tabloids at age 20, and just beginning her career, she famously dated Ruby Rose on and off from 2008 to 2018. She later got engaged to her partner Alex Smith in late 2022. "It was weird to have it written about so publicly because you don't really see that anymore. I was 20," Jessica told Stellar Magazine in 2023. "I didn't want to give them an answer because I didn't know what the answer was at the time. Labels were loaded back then. But all our fans knew I was queer; I wrote about it in so many songs." Fast forward to 2019 where the pair introduced 'Untouched' at LA Pride as "the national gay anthem", cementing the LGBTQIA+ community as the custodians of the power pop hit. "People say that we gave the gays 'Untouched,' but it was actually the gays that gave us 'Untouched'." "Because we literally grew up influenced by all the music that was defining queer culture," Jessica told Nylon Magazine in 2019. "So, of course, we were going to go on to create music that reflected that. 'Untouched' doesn't say 'I want to kiss a girl,' that's 'Take Me on the Floor'. There's no overt language in 'Untouched', but it's something about that song." Back home in Australia, The Veronicas struck the sweet spot when they joined Allday at Splendour In The Grass in 2019, bringing a whack of 2000s nostalgia to the stage. Their trap-infused remix of the song countless young Aussies had on their childhood iPods catapulted Jessica and Lisa into the zeitgeist, and ushered in a whole generation of new fans. This new legion of fans showed their love for the track in the way a chronically-online generation knows how: memes. Lots and lots of memes. Most recently, 'Untouched' has featured in the psychological supernatural horror Bring Her Back by fellow Australian power twins, Danny and Michael Philippou. "You're always trying to find songs that tie into the themes of the film or tie into something we're trying to convey," Danny told triple j. "And Laura's a character that when she's in these uncomfortable situations, she blasts music to try and cope with her nerves." So how do The Veronicas feel about a track they wrote 17 years ago having new life breathed into it? "It's literally the dream as a songwriter and as a performer," Lisa told Lucy Smith in 2023. "It was the first song for our second album. For us we took everything that we learned and we took a risk with 'Untouched' because at the time the genre and style of music that it was wasn't being played on radio. Lady Gaga hadn't even come out yet, so electro pop rock just wasn't a thing. "For this to be the blueprint of The Veronicas that people really feel like solidifies our sound is, for us, just the highest compliment." 'Untouched' is a song that has lasted the test of time, seen an artist through the bell curve of rising, falling and rising popularity, and now reached the podium of the best Australian Songs. The Veronicas are truly untouchable.

‘Glad to have lost the role': Taylor Swift becomes the target of Matty Healy's mother in cutting interview
Taylor Swift was shaded by her ex-boyfriend Matty Healy's mum, Denise Welch, who declared she was 'glad' that she didn't end up as the singer's mother-in-law. Welch targeted the 14-time Grammy winner when asked about the pop star's short-lived romance with her son during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live! Thursday. Welch, a British soap actress and daytime TV fixture, didn't hold back when host Andy Cohen asked for her reaction to Swift's 2024 album, The Tortured Poets Department, which is believed to contain several nods to the rocker. 'Obviously, on pain of death can I talk about that episode, but not being her mother-in-law is a role that I am glad that I lost,' she said, prompting audible gasps from the audience. 'Not that I have anything against her at all,' she went on. 'It was just — it was tricky.' The Big Brother star, 67, then briefly paused before elaborating on her initial answer. 'She — listen, you're not allowed to say anything, and then she writes a whole album about it,' Welch said of the Cruel Summer hit maker, 35. But Welch insisted that Healy, who is the frontman for The 1975, took the aftermath of Swift's eleventh studio album 'all in good grace.' 'He is very happy with his amazing fiancee Gabriella, who is gorgeous,' she went on, referring to the model Gabbriette Bechtel, by her real name. 'So, we've moved on,' Welch added. Healy, 36, and Swift briefly dated from May to June 2023, following the latter's split from British actor Joe Alwyn. During their short-lived romance, the duo were inseparable, with the crooner attending several of her sold-out Eras Tour concerts. They were also often spotted in New York City, including at the Electric Lady recording studio. Following the pair's split, an insider told Entertainment Tonight that they had parted ways due to incompatibility and scheduling issues. When Swift released TTPD in April 2024, it was rumoured that she wrote the album's title track, Guilty As Sin, Down Bad, Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus, The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived and I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can) about Healy. Swift has since moved on with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce over the summer of 2023. Healy, for his part, popped the all-important question to Bechtel in June 2024.
