Miley Cyrus on Hannah Montana Anniversary: Old & New

0:00On March 24, Miley Cyrus is marking 20 years since Hannah Montana first hit the air with a new anniversary special, now streaming on Disney Plus, and Hulu. In a recent chat on Good Morning America, she opened up about returning to the role that lost her career back in 2006. The special includes fresh performances, a new song, and guest spots from folks like Selena Gomez and her dad, Billy Ray Cyrus. The original show followed a teen girl juggling everyday life and pop stardom in secret, and it exploded into a huge hit with sold-out tours, albums, and even a movie. Cyrus explained how she spent years carving out her own star power, separate from the character, so slipping back into Hannah now feels like a fun. Mix of old and new, early fame hit her hard right after a promo aired with fans mobbing her before the series even premiered. She wasn't prepared for the spotlight, but having her real dad play her on-screen father made it easier, thanks to their natural bond that sealed the deal from the start.
