Miley Cyrus’ "Flowers" was recorded was previously used by Liam Hemsworth to cheat on Miley with more than 14 women while they were married. (Read More Here).
Taking to social media, popular American tabloid, Pop Tingz, revealed the Gist to its followers, especially to those on Twitter.
The video for the new song sees the singer taking a shower, totally naked, and can be heard repeating the phrase "I can love me better".
While the song could be a possible ode to self-love, what should surprise many are the darts Cyrus threw at her ex-husband, actor Liam Hemsworth, in what could only be described as an homage to Shakira.
In this new song, the singer effectively sings about love for oneself and the importance of personal wellbeing. The lyrics are accompanied by a video that shows the singer, who has just faced a presumed break-up and who realises a great truth: she can live and thrive on her own.
Cyrus takes the opportunity to make the aforementioned fact clear with a very meaningful verse.
"I can buy myself flowers/Write my name in the sand/Talk to myself for hours/Yeah, things you don't understand", Cyrus sings. "I can take myself dancing, yeah/I can hold my own hand/Yeah, I can love myself better than you can".
The verse takes on greater significance due to two small details: the song is a direct response to Bruno Mars' When I Was Your Man, a song that Liam Hemsworth dedicated to his then-wife; and that Cyrus dropped the bombshell on the actor's birthday.
The song follows Shakira's latest release with Bizarrap where the Colombian singer's lyrics are also said to be perceived digs at her ex Gerard Pique.
Produced by Mike WiLL Made-It, Kid Harpoon, Greg Kurstin and Tyler Johnson, the album will be released on March 20 and anticipation is at an all-time high, promising to be one of the albums of the year.
However, if all the tracks are as incendiary as this one, the controversy is going to be more than served for a long time to come.
Cyrus, 30, goes on to sing that she “didn’t want to leave” the “Hunger Games” actor, 33, but then realized she is happier and better off alone.
“I didn’t want to leave you / I didn’t wanna lie / Started to cry but then remembered / I can buy myself flowers / Write my name in the sand / Talk to myself for hours / Say things you don’t understand,” she croons.
Cyrus is seen dancing through the streets of Hollywood looking glam in a gold ensemble and big black sunglasses as she warbles the biting lyrics.
Cyrus also sings that she has “no remorse” and “no regret” and forgets “every word” Hemsworth has said as she lies by a pool wearing sexy black lingerie.
She is then shown working out in her lacy bra and underwear, signifying how she has only become stronger since their breakup.

Miley Cyrus takes a dig at her failed marriage to Liam Hemsworth in her new single, “Flowers” — and adding insult to injury, she dropped the song hours before her ex-husband’s birthday.
We were good / We were gold / Kind of dream that can’t be sold,” Cyrus sings. “We were right / ‘Til we weren’t / Built a home and watched it burn.”
The “Wrecking Ball” singer’s lyrics present a double meaning, referring to the multimillion-dollar Malibu home she shared with Hemsworth being destroyed in a 2018 wildfire while also detailing how their relationship crumbled over time.
