Miley Cyrus Thanks Beyoncé After ‘II Most Wanted’ Grammy Win: ‘Love You Forever’
Miley Cyrus won her third career Grammy at the awards ceremony on Sunday night (Feb. 2), and the superstar took to Instagram to celebrate.
“Last night at the @recordingacademy,” she wrote alongside a series of photos wearing custom black Alaïa dresses. “Having your name called is an honor that deserves to be celebrated. Just remember for those who don’t, nothing can take away the love and devotion you put into your art. I celebrate the unrecognized artists that created something beautiful and shared it with us. Thank you @beyonce for inviting me to be a part of your iconic Cowboy Carter era. Love you forever.”
Beyoncé’s “II Most Wanted” featuring Cyrus, from Bey’s Cowboy Carter album, was named the best country duo/group performance winner. The award for their duet marks Beyonce’s 33rd Grammy win of her career, and Cyrus’ third after collecting her first two Grammys last year for “Flowers” (for record of the year and best pop solo performance).

In the best country duo/group performance category, “II Most Wanted” was up against “Cowboys Cry Too” (Kelsea Ballerini with Noah Kahan), “Break Mine” (Brothers Osborne), “Bigger Houses” (Dan + Shay) and “I Had Some Help” (Post Malone feat. Morgan Wallen).
During the live telecast on CBS, Beyoncé was named the winner of best country album, for Cowboy Carter, and the project also won album of the year — Beyoncé’s first-ever wins in those categories at the Grammys.
