Can you believe it’s been almost 20 years since Hannah Montana first hit our screens? Miley Cyrus sure can’t—and she’s planning something big to celebrate. In a recent chat with TikTok Radio, the 32-year-old superstar dropped a hint: “I want to do something really special for the anniversary because, honestly, that show started it all. Without Hannah, there’d be no… well, no me as you know me today.”
The iconic Disney series premiered back in 2006, with a then-13-year-old Miley stepping into the dual role of ordinary teen Miley Stewart and her secret pop-star alter ego, Hannah Montana. The show ran for four seasons, wrapping up in 2011, and even spawned a concert film (Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds) in 2008. Fun fact? Her real-life dad, Billy Ray Cyrus, played her on-screen dad too—talk about keeping it in the family!
Looking back, Miley admits the role once felt like a “shadow she’d never escape.” But now? She sees it differently: “It’s wild—what used to feel like a character I’d outgrown is now this nostalgic piece of people’s childhoods. Hannah’s a part of their story, and that’s pretty cool. So yeah, we’re gonna celebrate right.”
No details yet on what she’s cooking up (a reunion? A documentary? New music?), but one thing’s clear: Hannah Montana fans won’t want to miss this.
