Born November 23, 1992, in Nashville, MILEY CYRUS (Hannah Montana/Miley Stewart) grew up watching her father—country music superstar/actor Billy Ray Cyrus—perform. Soon, she caught the acting bug herself. After gaining experience as an extra in her dad’s television projects, Miley acted opposite him in a recurring role on his television series, “Doc.” She then went on to appear in the Tim Burton film “Big Fish.”
When a 12-year-old Miley first auditioned for the title role of the Disney Channel’s “Hannah Montana,” she was considered too young for the part, but that didn’t stop her from pressing ahead. Two years later Miley won the part she had worked so hard for, and her ascent to superstardom began. “Hannah Montana’s” first season raked in some of the highest ratings ever for a Disney Channel original series.
In November 2006, the first “Hannah Montana” soundtrack came out on Walt Disney Records, featuring eight songs performed by Miley as Hannah Montana. The album shot to the top of the charts and became the first TV soundtrack to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200. The set finished the year as the No. 8 best-selling album and is now certified triple platinum.
Then came her 2007 two-disc set, “Hannah Montana 2: Meet Miley Cyrus.” She co-wrote eight tracks on that triple-platinum debut CD, setting the stage for her record-shattering box-office take on her 2007 “Best of Both Worlds” tour. She also had the No. 1 film in the country with the Walt Disney Pictures 3D release, “Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert.” This past summer she released her “Breakout” album, for which she co-wrote eight of the 13 tracks. Unlike her previous CD, half of which was performed as Hannah Montana, “Breakout” is 100 percent Miley Cyrus, and it has already reached platinum status.
Recently she starred as one of the voices in Walt Disney Pictures’ animated feature “Bolt,” and currently she is in the third season of her hit television series “Hannah Montana.” This spring, Miley released her first book, “Miles to Go,” sharing her inspiring story, spanning from her southern roots in Tennessee to the excitement of her record-setting triumphs in TV, music and film.
