Miley Cyrus Misses Her First Career No. 1 On One Chart By One Spot
Miley Cyrus debuts at No. 1 on the U.K.'s album sales and download charts with Something Beautiful, ... More while hitting No. 2 on the vinyl tally — her all-time career peak.

Miley Cyrus scores a lofty debut in the United Kingdom with her new album Something Beautiful, which opens at No. 1 on several charts in the country this week. While the project doesn't launch atop the main list of the most-consumed full-lengths and EPs, it does perform especially well when it comes to pure purchases, as the singer's fanbase opened their wallets to support the pop icon.
Something Beautiful misses out on the throne on multiple rankings by just a spot or two, but its arrival helps the Grammy winner tie her all-time best showing on one competitive list.
Something Beautiful kicks off its time at No. 2 on the Official Vinyl Albums chart this frame. The pop set is held back from the top spot by the alternative group the 1975, which arrives in first place with Still at Their Very Best – Live.
Cyrus's effort is one of nine debuts inside the top 10 this week on the vinyl-only tally during what has turned out to be a very busy period. The uppermost region of the ranking is completely refreshed from last week, so while she doesn't lead the charge, Cyrus can feel comfortable knowing she faced stiff competition — and bested nearly all of it.
Cyrus has never reached No. 1 on the Official Vinyl Albums chart, and the 1975 keeps her from scoring her first champion on the list. The No. 2 start of Something Beautiful does match her previously-set career peak, which she reached in spring 2023 with Endless Summer Vacation. That project, her most recent full-length before Something Beautiful, opened in the runner-up space, then dipped to No. 6, then No. 30, and has not been seen on the vinyl tally since.
Throughout her career, Cyrus has pushed five projects to the Official Vinyl Albums chart, and all but one have cracked the top 10. Plastic Hearts and Bangerz peaked at Nos. 5 and 8, respectively. Her 2018 set Younger Now only managed one turn at No. 37 before disappearing.
Something Beautiful rules both the Official Albums Sales and Official Album Downloads charts this week, and it becomes yet another win in Cyrus's collection of leaders. The set also opens inside the top 10 at No. 3 on the Official Albums list, which ranks titles by total consumption — not just pure purchases, like the other two.

The multi-genre, hit-packed collection remains present on several rankings in the United States, and this time around, it even manages to return to the top 10 as sales climb and Americans keep falling in love with the superstar's music again and again. Thriller's Sales Rise Sales of Thriller across all formats grew by more than 28% from one week to the most recent tracking period. Luminate reports that the set sold 3,900 copies in the U.S. in the previous tracking frame. That sum is enough to push Thriller from No. 17 to No. 10 on the Vinyl Albums chart. Not all of those purchases were on wax, but Thriller has remained a must-own for vinyl collectors for a long time, so it can usually be found on the list. At the same time, the Grammy-winning effort jumps from No. 30 to No. 25 on the Top Album Sales ranking, which blends all formats, including vinyl, CD, cassette, and digital downloads. Thriller Lives on Five Billboard Charts Thriller can be found on five charts this week, and it ascends on all of them. In addition to both the Top Album Sales and Vinyl Albums tallies, the collection lives inside the top 40 on both the Top R&B Albums and Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts, surging to Nos. 13 and 29, respectively. Michael Jackson Climbs the Billboard 200 Thriller enjoys its greatest lift on the Billboard 200, a general consumption ranking. On that tally, it rockets 30 spaces north, landing at No. 108. The full-length moved 11,500 equivalent units in the tracking period reflected on the current Billboard charts, with most of that activity coming from streaming platforms. Michael Jackson's Multiple Hit Albums Jackson claims a pair of hit albums in the U.S. at the moment, as is often the case. The Essential Michael Jackson, which features many of the songs that come from Thriller as well as numerous other smashes, rises to No. 88 on the Billboard 200 while holding steady on the Top R&B Albums (No. 10) and Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts (No. 23).

Liam Gallagher has sent a message to fans ahead of Oasis' opening night in Cardiff next week. The brothers are due to take to the stage in Cardiff's Principality Stadium next Friday (July 4) on the first top on their Live '25 reunion tour.

Liz Hurley helping beau Billy Ray Cyrus 'fix toxic family feud' after startling realisation
Elizabeth Hurley and her country legend beau Billy Ray Cyrus have been cosying up at glamorous events since going public in April – but their romance runs far deeper than red carpet appearances together, a source close to Liz has claimed. They told OK! that Liz, 60, is also helping mend the 63-year-old singer's heartache, by gently encouraging him to fix his fractured relationships with his children, including singers Miley and Noah, after he 'pushed them all away'. 'Liz is the love of Billy Ray's life – that's what he calls her,' claimed the source. 'Her friends are saying she's never been happier and that she feels she can totally turn his life around. He's seen how close she is to her own son, Damian and she is helping him mend those sometimes difficult relationships with his daughter and the rest of the family. They add: "She's helping him reconnect with his family and mend those relationships. She knows how important it is, as she's very close with Damian and she wants the same for Billy Ray. They're stronger than ever – he's fallen for her in every possible way. She's hoping she will be the guiding light and bring out the best in him.' Achy Breaky Heart singer Billy Ray has described Liz as 'a great human being' and credited her with bringing joy back into his life. The couple have appeared together at several high-profile events, from the Orizzonti/Rosso exhibition in Rome to various fundraising galas in London. They sent shockwaves through the showbiz world when they went public in April, following one of the most difficult chapters in Billy Ray's life. The American singer had been dealing with the fallout from his split from second wife Tish – who he had been married to for 30 years in 2022. This was followed by his subsequent brief marriage to third wife Firerose, who he married in 2023 and divorced in 2024. There were rumours of tension, following his split from Tish, among his six children – Miley, Noah and Braison (who he had with Tish), Brandi and Trace (who he adopted during his marriage to their mother, Tish) and Christopher (who he had with former girlfriend Kristin Luckey). Trace, 36, posted an open letter to his dad on Instagram in January to say the family were 'genuinely worried' about him. He wrote, 'Since my earliest memories, all I can remember is being obsessed with you and thinking you were the coolest person ever. I wanted to be just like you. The day you adopted me was the happiest day of my life. "Sadly, the man that I wanted so desperately to be just like I barely recognise now. It seems this world has beaten you down and it's become obvious to everyone but you. You may be upset with me for posting this but I really couldn't care less at this point. Me and the girls have been genuinely worried about you for years but you've pushed all of us away.' While Miley didn't respond to her brother's statement, there were rumours she had fallen out with her dad too. However, since Billy Ray started dating Liz, the family appear to be coming back together. The pair headed out to support Miley at the premiere of her new film Something Beautiful in London last month. 'Billy Ray has been on the wrong track and was previously hitting the bottle and struggling,' said our source. 'Liz leads a super clean lifestyle – she's very fit, super into what she eats and keeping in top shape, and she's trying to help him in every area of his life, from his health to his family.' Billy Ray and Liz's friendship began when they filmed the 2022 festive flick Christmas In Paradise together. Billy Ray previously revealed that Liz had contacted him while he was experiencing difficulties in his personal life, which became the trigger for their romance. Appearing on Apple Music Country's The Ty Bentli Show , Billy Ray recalled, 'I felt like, 'Wow, can life get any harder? Can it get any tougher?' For me, at a certain point, it was like, you can't get knocked down any flatter than lying on your back when life is kicking you. And in this moment a friend reached out.' Billy Ray said Liz's message said something like, 'Hey, it looks like life might be a little bit tough and just wanted you to know I'm in your corner – you've got a friend in your corner.' Billy explained that he didn't have Liz's number saved in his mobile and was baffled by who was behind the message. 'So, I text back, 'Who is this?' And it's like, 'Elizabeth Hurley.' Of all the people to reach out to me in that second that maybe I needed most – this friend who made me laugh.'
