Miley Cyrus Receives Innovator Award at 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards

At the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards, Miley Cyrus accepted the Innovator Award, previously given to artists like Beyoncé and Taylor Swift. The event marked a departure from her recent Hannah Montana anniversary celebrations, with Cyrus wearing a leather Hermés ensemble instead of sparkly costumes. In her speech, she reflected on how her fictional character inspired her authentic artistic expression. This followed her appearance at the Hannah Montana 20th anniversary special premiere in Los Angeles, where she wore a custom Rabanne gown with a graphic tee. The 33-year-old singer has consistently experimented with fashion from designers including Margiela and Alexander McQueen.
