Much of the album was shaped by Cyrus\u2019 divorce from actor Liam Hemsworth, which was finalized in early 2020, as well as the loss of her house in a California wildfire and her struggles with addiction. But on Plastic Hearts, she channels all that real pain, guilt, and suffering\u2014and occasionally, the jaded frustration of someone who\u2019s been up and down before\u2014into glossy yet vigorous expressions of inner tension and heat. \u201cI have the artist torture thing going on, too, where I\u2019m a little conflict-seeking because it\u2019s creative,\u201d she says. \u201cI like to feel sad sometimes. And I like to feel happy. I really like to feel. It\u2019s inspiring to me.\u201d<\/p>\n
