    Billy Ray Cyrus' son Trace Cyrus has called his dad the "lamest man ever to walk planet earth" in a scathing social media rant

    The musician - who is the brother of pop star Miley Cyrus - blasted his father in a post on Instagram in which he claimed Billy Ray skipped the funeral of Trace's beloved grandmother Loretta Finley - known as Mammie - five years ago because he didn't want to fly to Los Angeles and Trace pointed out the Achy Breaky Heart singer had recently made a trip to Italy for a holiday with his girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley


    In a post on Instagram, Trace wrote: "This man is so hungry for fame it's pathetic. He really flew to Italy for a fashion show but wouldn't come to LA for Mammie's funeral while he was still married to my mom.

    "Even after his daughter got him a $60k private jet like he demanded then he still didn't come even after the plane was paid for.

    "Honestly embarrassed to have ever considered you my idol. You're the lamest man ever to walk planet earth."

    He added: "The best thing to come from your downfall is it made me go into beast mode. I refuse to be a washed up, delusional, evil person when I'm old like you." Christ is King. Get right with God. You need it."

    Trace is one of Billy Ray's six children with ex-wife Tish Cyrus, who he divorced in 2023.

    He went on to reply to comment from a fan, declaring he doesn't care if he ever speaks to his father again.

    The musician wrote: "I'm past the point of even caring if I ever speak to him again. I've surpassed him in every metric as a man on this planet.

    "There's nothing left to learn except from his mistake. I had hope at one point but I'm convinced he's finally a lost cause ... "
