The Walt Disney Company tried to maintain distance from the performance. The Acting and Music Career of Miley Cyrus Teenage superstar Miley Cyrus is the daughter of country musician Billy Ray Cyrus and his wife Leticia. She was born on 23rd November 1992 with the name Destiny Cyrus, but was given the nickname Miley by her friends because she was always smiling. Since then it's stuck, and Miley prefers it to her real name! Miley began acting from a very early age. Her first role was starring alongside her dad in his show "Doc" at the age of nine. She also had a role in legendary director Tim Burton's movie "Big Fish" starring Ewan McGregor. At age 12, Miley auditioned for two roles on the Disney company's new teen sitcom "Hannah Montana" - both for the lead role and also as the lead character's best friend. However, Disney casting directors thought she was "too young and too small" for the role and wouldn't be able to handle the stress of filming such a large show. But Miley was detirmined to land one of the parts and begged the Disney executives to re-consider casting her. After some discussion, the executives decided to overcome their previous concerns and cast Miley in the lead role of Hannah. They even cast Miley's real dad Billy Ray as her dad in the show too! In the TV show, Miley plays Miley Stewart, who has a secret double life as an international popstar called Hannah Montana. She keeps this a secret from everyone except her family and closest friends. The Hannah Montana show on the Disney Channel has allowed Miley to rise from a Hollywood nobody to an international celebrity in only three years! Since starring in the show, Miley has starred in the TV movie "The Emporer's New School" and her first major role was as the voice of Penny in Disney's huge new animation "Bolt." She also had a cameo appearance in "High School Musical 2." Miley Cyrus also starred in the recent Hannah Montana concert-movie "The Best Of Both Worlds" with the Jonas Brothers and she also performs as Hannah Montana at live events all around the world. For the future, Miley has lots of acting projects under development. Some include a movie-length Hannah Montana film (based on the show's characters not the music) and a sequel to the 70s movie "Adventures in Babysitting" which is due out in 2010 starring another teen star Raven-Symone! Now that Miley is growing up, she is keen to shake off her "family" image that she gained from "Hannah Montana" and take on more serious acting and music projects. Only time will tell whether Miley will make it as a long-term success! Amanda Davis is a biographer living in London, UK. She has interviewed and is friends with many celebrities.
