Cyrus performed "Dream As One" for the film’s soundtrack, wearing her hair in curls and accentuating her features with smoky eye makeup. Their relationship, which became public in April 2022, began when they were seen getting cozy backstage at NBC’s Miley’s New Year’s Eve Party just months earlier.

In a previous interview, Cyrus revealed that they were set up on a blind date, saying, “The worst that can happen is I leave.”
