Fans Think Miley Cyrus Sent Liam Hemsworth a Message in Her New Song With Ariana Grande and Lana Del Rey
Miley Cyrus, Ariana Grande, and Lana Del Rey's big Charlie's Angels collab came out last night, "Don't Call Me Angel," ahead of the movie's release on November 15. The song acts as a feminist anthem—and fans believe it could contain a not-so-subtle message to Cyrus' ex-husband Liam Hemsworth. Grande, Del Rey, and Cyrus co-wrote the song with McKay and ALMA.
Fans pointed out on Twitter that Hemsworth used to always call Cyrus his little angel on his Instagram. Cyrus' verse in the song takes aim at that pet name. She sings, "Don't call me angel when I'm a mess / Don't call me angel when I get undressed / You know I, I don't like that, boy / Uh, I make my money, and I write the checks / So say my name with a little respect." They also noted that she appears to be beating up a man who looks a little like Hemsworth during her segment. Coincidence or easter egg, you be the judge.
