Miley Cyrus Declares 'Niley for Life' as She Jokes Both Nick Jonas and Liam Hemsworth Are Still 'Catching Strays'

Miley Cyrus is reflecting on an old flame. During the Friday, June 6 episode of the Every Single Album podcast, the "Flowers" singer made a rare comment about an ex-boyfriend from over 15 years ago — Nick Jonas.

Cyrus, 32, recalled what she wanted to include in her 2009 book Miles to Go about her newly minted ex. "I probably was like… 'Nick Jonas dumped me, he’s a dick.' But they were like, 'We can say he’s not a very nice boy,'" she said about the ghostwriter with whom she worked. "But I was probably like, ‘He’s an a-----.'"

"I like Nick," Cyrus continued of her feelings towards him now. "I'm into him." She did acknowledge that Jonas, 32, is "married with children" and that "we’re all moving on." "Everything is good in the world. Niley for life," she added of their couple name.

She also joked that despite the relationship being ancient history, Jonas is still "catching strays" — as is Cyrus' own ex-husband, actor Liam Hemsworth.

Cyrus and Jonas met in June 2006 at a charity benefit. Nick and his band the Jonas Brothers were opening for Cyrus as Hannah Montana on her Best of Both Worlds tour in 2007. The band made an appearance on an episode of Hannah Montana that year as well.

They also collaborated on the song "Before the Storm" together, which was on the Jonas Brothers' 2009 album Lines, Vines and Trying Times, along with "We Got the Party."

The Disney Channel stars broke up at the end of 2007. Fans speculated that Cyrus' song "7 Things" from her 2008 album Breakout was about Jonas.
