Diane Keatoncontinues to be vocal about her love ofMiley Cyrus.
To start off 2024,the 77-year-old actressposted an Instagram video of herself singing“Used to Be Young”— the fourth single from Cyrus’ Grammy-nominated album,Endless Summer Vacation.
“TO MY FAVORITE ARTIST OF 2023… I TRIED!” Keaton said in her caption. “@mileycyrus, YOU ARE A GENIUS!”
The video immediately caught the “Flowers” singer’s attention. “I love you so much,” Cyrus, 31, replied, ending the comment with a red heart emoji.
The Oscar winner previously showed love for the nostalgia-inducing song in August. Just days after Cyrus released “Used to Be Young,” Keaton used the ballad to soundtrack an Instagram slideshow of black-and-white photos of herself from her younger years.
In response, Cyrus left a thorough comment on Keaton’s post.
“I appreciate you deeply,” Cyrus wrote. “This is so moving and exactly why I made this song. I said throughout the journey of writing it over the last 18 months, ‘All I want is Diane Keaton to dance to it’ and this is even more magical. I love you. Thank you.”
Cyrus mentioned dancing because Keaton went viral seven months earlier for posting a video of herself dancing to Cyrus’ No. 1 hit “Flowers.”
