The album Hannah Montana 2: Meet Miley Cyrus goes to #1, as did the first soundtrack from the Disney show Hannah Montana the previous year. Miley Cyrus, who plays Hannah on the show, is now being promoted as a singer under her real name, not just her character.

Miley Cyrus, who stars on the Disney Channel series Hannah Montana, kicks off the Best Of Both Worlds Tour in St. Louis with opening act the Jonas Brothers. She does the first half of the show in character as Hannah, then transforms into Miley for the second half.

Hannah Montana: The Movie, based on the Disney Channel TV series that made Miley Cyrus a star, premieres in US theaters. Her character Miley Stewart becomes too preoccupied with her famous alter-ego, Hannah Montana, and is forced to rediscover her roots in her Tennessee hometown. Taylor Swift, who performs the country ballad "Crazier" in the movie, wrote the song "You'll Always Find Your Way Back Home" for the soundtrack.

The final episode of Hannah Montana airs on the Disney Channel after four seasons. Titled "Wherever I Go," it finds Miley Stewart (Miley Cyrus), a schoolgirl who moonlights as a pop star, stuck between two choices: go to college with her best friend or film a movie with Steven Spielberg. In real life, the decision to end the show is an easy one for Cyrus, who has outgrown the role that made her famous. "I can't base my career off of the six-year-olds," she explained.

Miley Cyrus revisits Hannah Montana for a Disney+ 20th anniversary special. Former cast members, along with stars like Selena Gomez and Chappell Roan, join Cyrus in sharing memories of the show, which ran from 2006 to 2011 and starred Cyrus as a schoolgirl who was secretly a rock star. Cyrus debuts a new song on the special called "Younger You," written in the form of a letter from her younger self.
