On Tuesday it was revealed that the peppy tune from the 30-year-old artist has debuted at number one on the Billboard chart after Taylor Swift's megahit Anti-Hero had eight weeks at number one.
This is the first time one of Cyrus' songs has debuted on the top spot for BH100.
The single is reportedly about how she is doing after her divorce from 33-year-old Australian actor Liam Hemsworth as there are several references to them in the song. It was also released on his birthday, January 13.

'We were right / til we weren't / built a home and watched it burn,' she sings.
In November 2018, their home was completely destroyed as a result of the devastating Woolsey Fire. They wed a month later but split after less than a year in August 2019.
The pair dated on/off for nearly a decade after meeting on set of their film, The Last Song (2010), when Miley was 17 and Liam was 19.
