Grammy winner Miley Cyrus celebrated the Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special with a blowout red carpet premiere, and before the screening, she credited an interview with planting the seeds of what would become the revival celebration of the show. “You started all this,” Cyrus told variety.com shortly after she arrived. “You started the drama. I just kind of like, mentioned my bangs and my blonde hair the last time I saw you, and then this happened,” she added. During a red carpet interview in January at the Palm Springs International Film Festival, Cyrus said she was “working hard” on Hannah Montana anniversary plans, but wouldn’t outright confirm the special was in the works. She simply said with a smile, “You see the bangs.”

 

While happily honouring her iconic popstar persona for the 20th anniversary, Cyrus said she does not have the energy to think about bringing Hannah Montana back to the airwaves. “Girl, I’m already tired,” Cyrus said when asked about a Hannah Montana reboot. “This has already been a lot.” Hannah Montana premiered in March 2006 on the Disney Channel and ran for four seasons before ending in 2011. Cyrus starred as Miley Stewart, a teenager who lived a double life as a famous pop star, Hannah Montana. Cyrus’ father, Billy Ray Cyrus, played her dad. The anniversary special, which premiered on March 24 features Cyrus singing some of the series’ most popular songs. n
