Avid fans strongly believe the lyrics are about her ex-husband, <\/span>Liam Hemsworth<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0\u2014 especially since the track was released on January 13, 2023, which is also Liam\u2019s birthday. Other fans are convinced that the lyrics of the chorus on \u201cFlowers\u201d is a direct response to\u00a0<\/span>Bruno Mars<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/span>\u2018 single, \u201cWhen I Was Your Man.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>Even<\/span>\u00a0Miley\u2019s sister\u00a0<\/span>Brandi Cyrus<\/b><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>weighed<\/span> in on the \u201ctruth\u201d behind the lyrics.\u00a0<\/span>Aside from her, even Chris Hemsworth<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s wife,\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Elsa Pataky<\/a>,<\/b><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>spoke her piece about the hit single.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Keep reading to find out everything we know about the story behind Miley\u2019s song \u201cFlowers.\u201d\u00a0<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n After the \u201cMidnight Sky\u201d artist released \u201cFlowers\u201d and its accompanying music video, fans took to social media to weigh in on several theories \u2014 one based on the location Miley chose to shoot the music video.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe house where the music video for Miley Cyrus\u2019 \u2018Flowers\u2019 was recorded was previously used by Liam Hemsworth to cheat on Miley with more than 14 women while they were married,\u201d one Twitter user wrote.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n While it\u2019s unclear where this rumored started, Miley initially denied\u00a0rumors that infidelity led to their breakup in August 2019 via Twitter<\/a>, shortly after the two announced their split.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI can admit to a lot of things, but I refuse to admit that my marriage ended because of cheating,\u201d she tweeted at the time. \u201cLiam and I have been together for a decade. I\u2019ve said it before & it remains true, I love Liam and always will.<\/span><\/p>\n Another circulating claim is that the Tennessee native wore the same suit that Liam wore to the April 2019\u00a0Avengers: Endgame<\/i>\u00a0premiere in her music video. Viewers believe\u00a0the Australia native told his then-wife to \u201cbehave\u201d before she playfully pushed him away in a viral video<\/a>\u00a0taken on the red carpet at the time.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cRight now, I\u2019m feeling like that clip of Miley Cyrus [and] Liam Hemsworth where he tells her to behave for once, [and] she basically tells him to f\u2014k off [and] they break up shortly after. If u get what I mean,\u201d one Twitter user wrote, whereas another chimed claimed Miley, \u201cshot the video in the house he used to cheat on her multiple times and used the suit he used when he told her to behave.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Fans also unearthed an old video<\/a> of Liam with his\u00a0<\/span>Hunger Games<\/a>\u00a0<\/i><\/span>costar<\/span>\u00a0Jennifer Lawrence<\/a><\/b><\/span>\u00a0admitting that she once shared a brief kiss with him. Perhaps coincidentally, Miley wears a gold dress in her music video that is strikingly similar to the gown Jennifer wore to the 2012\u00a0<\/span>Hunger Games<\/i><\/span>\u00a0premiere in Los Angeles.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Two months after the song was released, Liam\u2019s sister-in-law, Elsa, told Hola!<\/a> that while she likes \u201cFlowers,\u201d she wasn\u2019t going to comment on Liam and Miley\u2019s split.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a very old topic for us,\u201d she explained. \u201cIf someone should talk it should be Liam, but I think she [Cyrus] can do what she wants.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n When answering whether she and Miley have remained in contact with each other, Elsa noted, \u201cNot anymore because we live in different countries, and it\u2019s difficult.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n While the\u00a0Hannah Montana\u00a0<\/i>alum has not publicly addressed the speculation, her sister\u00a0Brandi Cyrus<\/b>\u00a0weighed in on the social media chatter during a January\u00a020, 2023, interview on\u00a0Wells Adams<\/b>\u2019 \u201cYour Favorite Thing\u201d podcast<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe song did come out on his birthday \u2014 was that on purpose? I don\u2019t know,\u201d the DJ teased. \u201cCan\u2019t say. Genius, though.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Brandi then elaborated on the multiple fan theories, noting, \u201cThen there was, \u2018The suit she\u2019s wearing is the suit Liam wore at the\u00a0Avengers<\/i>\u00a0premiere, where he told her that she needed to behave for once. And so, this is a f\u2014k you because she\u2019s in the suit.\u2019 Hilarious.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThen the other one was, \u2018The house is the house where Liam used to take people [to] cheat on her with,\u2019\u201d the actress added. \u201cThe narratives are f\u2014king hilarious, but it\u2019s so great. The best PR that could ever happen because it gets people talking about the song on TikTok, and it\u2019s everywhere. And it\u2019s just so fun to watch it all play out. Miley fans, I love ya.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Nevertheless, Brandi emphasized that she is \u201cnot here to say that\u2019s true and what\u2019s not true.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cOnly Miley knows the truth,\u201d she concluded.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The \u201cJaded\u201d artist broke her silence<\/a> on the meaning behind the single during a May 2023 interview with British Vogue<\/i><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI never need to be a master at the craft of tricking an audience,\u201d she said in response to the fan speculation surrounding the lyrical inspiration. \u201cIt will set itself on fire all by itself.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Miley also revealed that the original chorus of the song had a gloomier meaning: \u201cI can buy myself flowers, write my name in the sand, but I can\u2019t love me better than you can.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cIt used to be more, like, 1950s. The saddest song,\u201d she added. \u201cLike, \u2018Sure, I can be my own lover, but you\u2019re so much better.\u2019\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n After reconstructing the single to have its present tempo and meaning, Miley concluded, \u201cThe song is a little fake it till you make it. Which I\u2019m a big fan of.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Many fans also think Miley\u2019s new track is a response to Bruno\u2019s\u00a02012 song \u201cWhen I Was Your Man,\u201d\u00a0for a specific reason.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cJust heard Miley Cyrus\u2019 new song \u2018Flowers\u2019 and thought it kinda sounded like Bruno Mars\u2019 \u2018When I Was Your Man\u2019 only to find out hers is low-key an answer back to Bruno\u2019s song because her ex Liam Hemsworth used to sing the song to her???\u201d one person tweeted<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Brandi also touched on this theory in her podcast interview, gushing about how her sister\u2019s fans \u201cgo hard in the paint\u201d and \u201ckeep creating narrative after narrative.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cLike, every day I wake up to a new [theory],\u201d she said. \u201cThe first one was something about this Bruno Mars song. They\u2019re like, \u2018Liam played the Bruno Mars song at their wedding! And this is a response to the Bruno Mars song.\u2019 That one\u2019s funny.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n The\u00a0Last Song\u00a0<\/i>actress hasn\u2019t responded to this rumor, but fans noticed that the lyrics of Miley\u2019s \u201cFlowers\u201d chorus act as a response to the lyrics in Bruno\u2019s \u201cWhen I Was Your Man.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI should have bought you flowers, And held your hand,\u201d read the lyrics in Bruno\u2019s chorus. \u201cShould have gave you all my hours, When I had the chance \/ Take you to every party \u2019cause all you wanted to do was dance \/ Now my baby\u2019s dancing, But she\u2019s dancing with another man.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n In comparison, the \u201cWrecking Ball\u201d songstress sings the following lyrics in her track: \u201cI can buy myself flowers \/ Write my name in the sand \/ Talk to myself for hours \/ Say things you don\u2019t understand \/ I can take myself dancing \/ And I can hold my own hand \/ Yeah, I can love me better than you can.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cFlowers\u201d is nominated for four awards at the 2023 MTV Music Video Awards<\/a>, which will take place on September 12.
