The most exalted country music venue in America, the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, played host to a rising ‘nepo baby‘ this week.
Not only is this 25-year-old the daughter of a famous crooner, but she is also the little sister of a pop act who has achieved worldwide fame.
In recent years, her own love life hit the headlines when a man she was rumored to have dated proceeded to marry her mother.
This Wednesday, the young songstress fired up her Instagram page to celebrate a new professional milestone – her debut onstage at the Opry.
In photos and videos she posted from her gig, she was the image of a retro country star in a white lace frock with tiered skirts, her lush curls cascading down her back.
Can you guess who she is?

A couple of years ago, Noah was rumored to be on the outs with her mother Tish Cyrus and her stepfather, Prison Break heartthrob Dominic Purcell.
Tish, 58, and Dominic, 55, got married in Malibu in 2023, but speculation then quickly started circulating that Noah had dated him first.
They have since evidently mended fences, even giving a joint interview this April in which they discussed how they strengthened their bond.
She appeared to have put the drama firmly behind her when she hit the stage at the Grand Ole Opry this week, visibly glowing with excitement.
Her album celebrating the experience included a sweet video of her dressing room conversation with a staffer at the venue called Jim who had worked there for decades.
‘Let’s see, I think I’ve worked with some other folks in your family before,’ said Jim, to which Noah sweetly replied: ‘Maybe you know my daddy,’ and Jim confirmed he did.
In her caption, she gushed: ‘what an honor it was to finally play the Grand Ole Opry and to stand in the circle where so many icons of country music have stood and sang before. my daddy would bring me with him to the opry when i was only a baby, what surreal moment it was to be there singing my own music 20 something years later.’

She expressed her gratitude to the famed venue ‘for having me and adding me into long list of legendary artists to have walked the opry stage throughout history.. it was like singin in front of a room full of family.’
Her post comes after she buried the hatchet with her mother Tish, following the widely reported speculation that the two women fell out over Dominic.
Rumors began flying when it emerged that Noah and her brother Braison had skipped Tish and Dominic’s wedding, which was held at Miley’s Los Angeles home.
‘Noah and Dominic were seeing each other in a friends with benefits way, off and on. They stopped seeing each other and then Tish started something up,’ a source claimed to People. ‘Tish knew he had been seeing Noah.’
‘Noah stopped seeing Dominic and Tish decided to pursue him and did not tell Noah,’ an insider alleged to Entertainment Tonight.

‘Tish was the one who did not invite Noah and Braison to her wedding, and blocked them on Instagram after she pursued Dominic,’ the source added, accusing Tish of having ‘requested security at her wedding to keep Noah and Braison out.’
The two women were said to have feuded over the issue, but Noah was seen paying a visit to her last July, apparently signaling a potential rapprochement.
By this April, the two women had reunited for a TikTok video, and later that month Tish and one of her other daughters Brandi welcomed Noah onto their podcast.
On the podcast, Tish and Noah did not directly address the putative feud but did discuss how they had grown closer to one another.
Tish noted that Noah had moved closer to her this year, which had been ‘been so good for us,’ with the pair of them ‘able to go on our walks and we found our new favorite ice cream truck,’ on an episode of Sorry We’re Cyrus.
The Cyrus matriarch also showered praise on Noah’s fiancé, the German fashion designer Pinkus, whom she got engaged to in May 2023.
‘I love him so much and honestly… he is a man. He’s so respectful and driven and sweet. Honestly I think he is perfect,’ said Tish. ‘He is so awesome and I could not be happier that you are with him.’
