Metro Station backing vocalist and guitarist Trace Cyrus shared a lengthy message about his strong disapproval of the app OnlyFans, and the women who work as creators on it.
Cyrus is the oldest half brother to singers Miley Cyrus and Noah Cyrus, who are all the children of country star Billy Ray Cyrus and Tish Cyrus. Trace Cyrus’ father is drummer Baxter Heal Nelson, but he was legally adopted by Billy Ray Cyrus upon his marriage to Tish Cyrus.
The message detailed that the guitarist was never going to “wife” an “OnlyFans girl” because men “only value them for sex.” OnlyFans predominantly serves as an adult entertainment platform. The reason for the post remains unclear.
Miley Cyrus’ brother, Trace Cyrus, slams OnlyFans creators in a misogynistic post:
“There's so many girls that do Only Fans that have lost their chance of ever settling down with a good guy with morals. They will try and call those men insecure for having standards … men see… pic.twitter.com/iAc3CZ6w90

Fans of Miley and Noah Cyrus were quick to slam the post, with many claiming that it felt misogynistic in nature.

that’s why he’s irrelevant and a nobody

Others claimed that Cyrus must have posted it as an attention grab. Several of the singer-guitarist’s family members are acclaimed singer-songwriters in their own right.
weird takes for attention is what happens when you’re the most irrelevant sibling in a famous family

Elsewhere, some felt that Cyrus’ post was hypocritical. The musician follows several OnlyFans models on Instagram, and has two ex-fianceés, actress Brenda Song and Taylor Lauren Sanders. Some felt that he was not in a place to judge others for “not being marriage material.”
2 failed engagements but you wanna talk down on sex workers yeah you’re single FOREVER pic.twitter.com/JwViAQfd54

In the comment section of Cyrus’ tweet, some sex workers are advocating for themselves and their partners. Many women are sharing their heartfelt longterm love stories with their partners, which began while they worked in the adult entertainment industry.
What’s also so funny to me is that this man really buys it. Like he really thinks every onlyfans girl is single. I am so sorry to tell you but most of the women I know are married, have kids or are in a serious long term relationship. Even if they do not disclose that for privacy

There’s a lot of female sex workers married with families, businesses, educations, homes etc. Some are married to sex workers and some are married to non-sex workers. We are valuable humans. Stop devaluing our existence with your platform.

Elsewhere, more critics of Cyrus are joking that he must have been rejected by an OnlyFans model himself to have posted the lengthy message.
Sorry she turned you down, bro.

Others clapped back that maybe women simply have standards when it comes to dating him as well.
Should a girl have standards about those ugly tattoos or are we skipping over that part?

The post comes days after Cyrus claimed that he would be “more successful” if he was not a part of a famous family of musicians. The singer-guitarist claimed that he only signed a record deal because the label did not ask about his family prior to signing.
LMAO! So far from the truth ???? he has such a big advantage.. obviously has some issues, just making excuses.

The comments on his family, in conjunction with today’s anti-OnlyFans message, have many starting to believe a circulating theory–that several members of the Cyrus family have become recently estranged from one another. Miley Cyrus has been particularly supportive of all women in different aspects of the entertainment industry, and has long defended people expressing their sexuality as they so choose to.
Pretty sure your sister would be disappointed in this, she’s pretty cool

The Cyrus Theory
Billy Ray and Tish Cyrus were married for 28 years before divorcing in 2022. The couple had previously nearly divorced two times prior to last year, but ultimately reconciled. The reason for the longtime couple’s split remains unclear.
Billy Ray Cyrus became engaged to country singer Firerose, who is 34 years old whilst Cyrus is 61. The engagement was announced three months after the Cyrus’ divorce. The brief timeline and wide age gap led to criticism of Cyrus, and rumors that Miley Cyrus did not approve of the relationship due to her proximity in age to her father’s new fianceé. It is also alleged that Firerose made a brief appearance as an extra on the father daughter duo’s Disney Channel hit show “Hannah Montana.”
@psychadvice I feel uncomfortable.. #billyraycyrus #mileycyrus #firerose #greenscreen
After these rumors emerged, Miley Cyrus was recently the maid of honor at her mother’s wedding to actor Dominic Purcell. Notably, several of her siblings were not present at the wedding, and posted photos together from a different location on the day of the event.

With Trace’s recent controversial comments, fans of the several Cyrus family singers feel that Trace is adding fuel to the fire of an alleged family feud regarding Tish and Billy’s divorce.

Amid the criticism of his recent statements and rumors of a family disagreement, Trace shared a photo of himself captioned “unbothered.”
