Miley Cyrus’ 20 Biggest Chart Hits, From ‘Wrecking Ball’ to ‘Flowers’
It feels like Miley Cyrus has lived a thousand lives since she first found global fame as a pre-teen.
Undoubtedly one of the Disney Channel machine’s most successful alums, she’s consistently written off the world’s expectations for her life and career, reinventing herself again and again while remaining the fierce, ever-hilarious star her fans have loved from the beginning. The versatile singer-songwriter has clocked dozens of entries on the Billboard Hot 100, and is one of a rare few to enter the ranking multiple times under two different aliases: herself, as well as the fictional Disney Channel pop star she got her big break playing, Hannah Montana.
The Tennessee native scored her first-ever No. 1 during one of the most controversial eras of her career, with “Wrecking Ball” shooting up 22 slots on the Hot 100 in 2013 right after she released her then-shocking music video for the song. (Though people would hardly flinch now at the iconic visual, which has since accumulated over a billion views on YouTube, Cyrus swinging naked from a demolition ball was cause for many dropped jaws back in the day.)
A decade later, she would once again reign on the chart with “Flowers,” which spent a whopping eight weeks at No. 1 in 2023. The empowering track went on to earn Cyrus her very first Grammy at the 2024 awards — best pop solo performance — followed shortly afterward by her second, with the star taking home record of the year later that night.
From her blonde-wig days to her later forays into pop rock, the star has maintained a steady presence on the Billboard charts. Keep reading to see Miley Cyrus’ 20 biggest Hot 100 hits — so far, at least — below.
Miley Cyrus’s Biggest Billboard Hot 100 Hits ranking is based on weekly performance on the Hot 100 through the charts dated Feb. 24, 2024. Songs are ranked based on an inverse point system, with weeks at No. 1 earning the greatest value and weeks at lower spots earning the least. Due to changes in chart methodology over the years, eras are weighted differently to account for chart turnover rates during various periods.
