During the 2024 Grammys, Miley Cyrus rocked a bold and daring look with confidence, showing off her body. Some people loved it for being unique, but others thought it was too revealing. Her hairstyle also received a lot of attention, both positive and negative.
The 31-year-old singer showcased her bold fashion sense, wearing a stunning gold gown that accentuated her figure. Her hairstyle was quite unique too, with a lot of volume.
Her outfit seemed to take inspiration from Madonna’s iconic cone bra, featuring a custom naked ensemble by Maison Margiela made out of gold safety pins. The mesh gown was covering only her breasts and forming a metallic panty around her waist.
It seems like Cyrus took some cues from another famous icon for her hairstyle, as she sported a sky-high hairdo reminiscent of her godmother, Dolly Parton. Sticking to the golden theme, she completed her look with gold Tabi heels, keeping her outfit sleek and minimalist by skipping any additional accessories.
While numerous admirers commended her overall look, describing her as “pretty” and expressing enthusiasm to see her donning this style again, some people immediately voiced their disapproval. One commenter remarked, ’’She’s leaving nothing to the imagination and that hairstyle is way too elegant for safety pins.’’
Miley’s hairstyle sparked conversation online, with some likening it to Kurt Russell’s look from the 80s. One commenter even joked, ’’Kurt definitely wore it better.’’ Some also drew comparisons to the iconic Jane Fonda. It’s quite uncommon to spot such a hairstyle on the red carpet in 2024, given that current hair trends lean towards simplicity.
We admire Miley Cyrus’s glowing appearance and wish her all the best in her professional and personal endeavors. Since 2021, Miley has been open about her relationship with drummer Maxx Morando. Let’s dive into the intriguing story of how this couple first crossed paths.

Inside a ‘Dystopian’ Apartment Block Where That Houses Over 20,000 Residence
Deemed a “Dystopian Apartment,” a building in China has recently gone viral on TikTok. Incredibly, it has the ability to host up to 30,000 residents.
The video was posted by @fatheristheone using a drone and caught people’s attention for more than just the impressive interior and unique design.
People were also astonished after seeing footage that truly captivates the enormity of the building.
Many people have read at least one novel focusing on a Dystopian society. Or at least understand that it describes a society that lives in fear or has been dehumanized.
Most works have been fiction, although some might argue they’re a possible warning about the future.
Either way, China currently has an apartment building that can house up to 30,000 residents at one time. Furthermore, containing everything residents could possibly need.
Features of the Dystopian Apartment
The “dystopian” apartment, called the Regent International, is located in Qianjiang Century City, more specifically, in Hangzhou’s central business district.
The building was actually designed by Alicia Loo, chief designer of a 7-star hotel called the Singapore Sands Hotel, and was inaugurated in 2013.
Impressively, the building is 675 feet tall and is currently home to around 20,000 residents. It is an S-shape and has 36, or 39, floors depending upon which side of the building you are.
Unsurprisingly, it’s one of the most densely populated areas in the world, thanks to the numerous residents coexisting under one giant roof.
Within the more than 30 floors of the Regent International, there are a number of amenities. Some include restaurants, swimming pools, and nail salons.
The building also contains its own grocery stores and internet cafes. Essentially, anything one might find “in town” can be found indoors the “dystopian apartment”.
As a result, many residents may never step foot outside again. Posing the question, will they also never get any fresh air or feel the sunlight on their skin? First, the residents aren’t forced to stay indoors, nor are they forced to live in the “dystopian apartment.”
In contrast, most residents are young professionals and influencers or college students. Both of them greatly benefit from the cost-effectiveness and convenience of living in a place such as an S-shaped building.
Advantageous Living
Living there seems to be incredibly convenient for residents as they have everything they could possibly need under one roof.
Convenience isn’t the only advantage. Its affordability is another great benefit to living at Regent International.
Units vary in size and cost but range from 1,500 RMB, which is equivalent to around $200.00 per month, to 4,000 RMB, which is just under $600.00 per month.
While some are apprehensive, calling it a “dystopian apartment,” others have praised the innovation behind the building. It’s even been called “the most sustainable living building on earth.”
Another interesting advantage comes to light in the midst of a housing crisis that is seemingly sweeping the U.S. The “dystopian apartment” could serve as a model for how the U.S. can possibly create more living spaces for people without taking up copious amounts of land.
Interestingly, one state has already developed something like the hotel turned apartment city. Whittier, a city in Alaska, has a 14-floor building in which all 272 residents live. It, like the building in China, has everything one would find “in town.” This includes a church, school, post office, and police station.
Possible Downsides
Like everything in life, this, too, has pros and cons. After all, the building has been referred to as “dystopian apartment” for a reason.
As previously mentioned, many people are wondering how so many people can live in one place. U.S. residents tend to prefer privacy. Space from their neighbors. Even a yard to hang out in or for their dogs to play.
A major drawback to a housing solution like this is that people will have very little space of their own, with little opportunity to be outdoors or get fresh air. Luckily, the problem of getting fresh air can be remedied by taking a stroll or renting one of the larger units in the Regent International, as some come with balconies, providing some relief from living in there.
