When it comes to ashtrays,Surpassing Keith Urban thinks of Miley Cyrus.
But he promises it's a good thing. The "You'll Think of Me" singer shared his thoughts about the Grammy winner's raspy voice while covering her song "Flowers."
"I love that voice, man," Keith said on the Sept. 4 episode of the Fitzy and Wippa with Kate Ritchie podcast. "She sounds like an ashtray. And I mean that as a compliment."
Referring to Returned and Services Leagues—clubs where military members and veterans get together—he added, "She sounds like the carpet at the RSL!"
"I love Miley," the 56-year-old, who previously covered the singer's Grammy-winning song several times, emphasized. "I've always loved Miley."
And while Miley can buy herself flowers, it doesn't seem like she needs to. After all, she's been receiving praise in all aspects of her life. Last month, the 31-year-old—who played Hannah Montana in the eponymous show from 2006 to 2011—became the youngest person to receive the Disney Legend award at D23.
"I'm definitely going to cry," Miley said in an emotional acceptance speech. "I stand here still proud to have been Hannah Montana because she made Miley in so many ways. This award is dedicated to Hannah and all of her amazing, loyal fans, and to everyone who has made my dream a reality. To quote the legend herself, 'This is the life.'"
Kelly Ripa, who was also named a Disney Legend at the ceremony, revealed that Miley and her Disney alter ego inspired her and Mark Consuelos' daughter Lola Consuelos, 23, to pursue music.
"Miley Cyrus has been such a singular influence in her life," Kelly told E! News on the red carpet. "And Hannah Montana was such a huge show in our house."
And a few months earlier, the "Wrecking Ball" singer earned her first Grammy Award in February after nearly two decades in the industry—and swiftly followed up with a second win. And although she's grateful for the milestone, her life is rosy, with and without the accolades.
"This award is amazing, but I really hope it doesn't change anything because my life was beautiful yesterday," she said during her speech. "Not everyone will get a Grammy, but everyone in this world is spectacular, so please don't think this is important, even though it's very important."
