Miley Cyrus is channeling a painful memory into music for one of the most highly anticipated films of 2025: Avatar: Fire and Ash.
As announced Wednesday (Oct. 22), the pop star will contribute an original song to the Avatar sequel’s soundtrack. Sharing a snippet of the track on social media, Cyrus shared that she was inspired by her own experience with losing her Malibu home to a devastating fire in 2018 while working on the track.
“Having been personally affected by fire and being rebuilt from the ashes, this project holds profound meaning for me,” she wrote. “Thank you, [James Cameron], for the opportunity to turn that experience into musical medicine. The film’s themes of unity, healing, and love resonate deeply within my soul, and to be even a small star in the universe the Avatar family has created is truly a dream come true.”
In the sneak peek at the song, Cyrus sings over a lush orchestral arrangement, “Even through the flames, even through the ashes in the sky/ Baby when we dream, we dream as one.”
Avatar: Fire and Ash is set to premiere in theaters in December, more than 15 years after the first film in the franchise came out. The original Avatar — which starred Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana — is considered the highest grossing movie of all time, raking in more than $2 billion in the box office.
Cyrus has been open about how seriously the 2018 wildfire affected her. At the time, she posted that the home she shared with then-husband Liam Hemsworth had been completely destroyed, though all of her animals were safely evacuated.
When wildfires again broke out in California this year, Cyrus again touched on the experience. “It’s a feeling you don’t ever forget,” she said. “Walking up to the door you would pass through daily, looking forward to being greeted by the ones you love like you always do but instead being met by a pile of ash and rubble.”
See Cyrus’ announcement below.
Honored to support Avatar: Fire and Ash with an original song I’ve written with Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt. Having been personally affected by fire and being rebuilt from the ashes, this project holds profound meaning for me. Thank you, Jim, for the opportunity to turn that… pic.twitter.com/OyHvzZJhXp— Miley Cyrus (@MileyCyrus) October 22, 2025

Fresh off her record-breaking sophomore album, Am I The Drama?, Cardi B is having some fun with her “play dough” as she just bet a King Kong-sized grip on the upcoming UFC 321 Main Event.
According to Bloodyelbow.com, the Grammy award-winning rapper just put down a staggering $250,000 on the current Interim UFC Heavyweight Champion Tom Aspinall to successfully defend his title against Ciryl Gane on Saturday (Oct. 25) in Abu Dhabi.
While we’re used to seeing and hearing about male rappers placing bets this size on fights and other sporting events, you rarely hear (if ever) about female celebrities indulging in such betting practices. Then again, Cardi B is from the Bronx and is as raunchy and outspoken as any man alive, so this shouldn’t be as surprising as it seems.

Still, she needs some things to break her way before she can walk away with some more pocket change for her Hermés bags.
Per Bloodyelbow:
First, the Grammy-winning recording artist needs Tom Aspinall to beat Ciryl Gane on Saturday night.
The king of UFC heavyweights has blitzed through opponents with quick wins throughout his run in MMA’s premier promotion, but any form of victory will do for Cardi B.
If Aspinall delivers, Cardi B will be waiting on the result of Jake Paul’s exhibition bout with Gervonta Davis.
Once again, no knockout is needed, but ‘Tank’ must beat the YouTuber-turned-boxer on November 14.
If Aspinall and Davis both win their upcoming fights, Cardi B’s bet will pay out $460,000.
Imagine putting up $250,000 on a sporting event like it’s no thang. Can’t even be mad. She really worked her ass off to get this far in life (both literally and figuratively).
What do y’all think about Cardi B putting down this kind of cash on a UFC event? Let us know in the comments section below.

Right when we thought we could go a whole year without hearing about this again, here we are..
Once upon a time, Chris Brown and Kevin McCall were a dynamic duo. Breezy with the vocals & face card, K Mac, for his dope pen game. 15 years ago, they dropped a huge collab named “Dueces,”. Sound familiar, right? Although it was a big moment for both of their careers, they have been bumping heads ever since. Yes, even 15 years later…
The LA songwriter has always claimed he didn’t get his fair share of the pot for his contributions. The superstar singer felt otherwise and used every moment to troll McCall. In the newest Breezy & Kevin saga, money has been brought up again. During a podcast interview, Kevin McCall reveals that he is on EBT, “I’m not even trippin’ though. I got an EBT card in my pocket. Can I get 25,000 for the 4 songs you owe me?”
Following that was a complete crashout, where Kevin sadly breaks down. Following this clip going viral, Young Thug sends out a tweet to Kevin offering to give him the 25 racks, “Kevin McCall hit me my n*gga, I’ll give you the 25K you need. I know CB (Chris Brown) would give it to you also, bro he a real one. N*ggas is just busy sometimes brada.”
Here comes an incoming Breezy petty message, and he didn’t waste any time whatsoever. Less than 24 hours since Kevin McCall’s message to Chris, he responds, “Remember this: You can’t walk across a burnt bridge. You know what’s funnier than a troll? A BROKE ONE”
Gloves are completely off for the VA singer. Check out some of the reactions to the Chris Breezy and K Mac decade of a beef below.
1. The downfall of Kevin needs to be studied
2. Thug is willing to give Kevin 25K
4. Not on ours either
5. Tough life lesson for Mr.Dueces
6. Sell on his…nvm
7. Therapy is essential
8. Things we can’t relate to
9. SMH snot crying…
10. Overly bad
As Russell Vought attains more of the limelight in the Trump administration as the Office of Management, a new report sheds some light on his relationship with the president. Particularly, Trump’s desire to get female companionship for Vought.
In a report for Zeteo, Swin Suebsaeng wrote of how the two regularly spoke to each other, and in some of those conversations, Trump was adamant about lending his services to get Vought laid.
“Trump spoke to Vought, a self-described Christian nationalist who’s now one of the president’s most hardline enforcers, about the ‘gorgeous’ and ‘beautiful ladies’ who roam Trump’s club, Mar-a-Lago, so often that it ‘weirded out’ some of his advisers,’ sources told Suebsaeng, adding: “And Trump spoke crudely of all the ‘p—y’ that Vought would surely get as the president’s favorite ‘bachelor.’”

Vought and his ex-wife, Mary (who, by the way, oversees the communications and public relations for the Heritage Foundation), divorced in 2023. The alleged conversations took place throughout Trump’s election campaign last year. Vought has been one of Trump’s biggest allies, urging him to lay off even more federal workers during the current government shutdown, now in its 22nd day. The 49-year-old, referred to as “Darth Vader,” has been a major architect of Project 2025, which has led to the rollback of thousands of jobs as well as nutrition benefits for those with lower income, in addition to other crippling consequences.
The report comes as Trump and the administration are under heavy public pressure to release the entirety of the files related to convicted sex trafficker and former Trump pal Jeffrey Epstein. Trump has denied any longstanding association with him, despite a bombshell report by the Wall Street Journal showing him in a birthday book for Epstein.
An OMB spokesperson called the reporting false, adding personally, “Exactly what you’d expect from a deranged hack who couldn’t even hold a job at Rolling Stone and is now writing for a Greta Thunberg blog.”
