“Congratulations [Miley Cyrus] on your six GRAMMY nominations for, ‘Endless Summer Vacation,’ ‘Flowers,’ and, ‘Thousand Miles’!” Gaynor wrote on Twitter/X. She continued, “And a big congratulations to, ‘Flowers,’ co-writer [Michael Pollack] on his GRAMMY nomination for Song of the Year as well!”
Cyrus replied, “Thank you GG! I love you.” Last January, some listeners made an interesting connection between Cyrus’ “Flowers” and Gaynor’s classic “I Will Survive,” claiming Cyrus’ recent hit reminded them of Gaynor’s. The disco icon replied to the comparison, giving “Flowers” her seal of approval.
