Miley Cyrus, who rocketed to stardom as Hannah Montana, has said that there were some severe drawbacks to performing the legendary role. According to a story in People, she acknowledged having an ‘identity issue’ as a result of it.
According to the story, Miley said on Spotify’s Rock This with Allison Hagendorf podcast that she had lost her sense of self while performing the dual character. She said, “Talk about an identity crisis.”
Cyrus portrayed the titular character in the Disney program, which was a typical teenager by day and a pop sensation by night. From 2006 to 2011, she starred in four seasons of ‘Hannah Montana.’ Hannah was “nearly as frequently a character as I was myself,” she said, adding that “the notion of the show is that when you’re this character when you have this alter ego, you’re valuable.” You have millions of admirers, you’re the most famous person on the planet, and then the premise was that when I looked like myself when I didn’t wear the wig, no one cared about me, I wasn’t a celebrity anymore.”
“That was pounded into my skull, so to speak. No one cares about you unless you’re Hannah Montana. “And that was the idea,” she went on to say.
On Instagram, the singer keeps making her fans nostalgic by uploading amusing photos about the program, which is still a fan favourite.
The singer went on to say that she “truly had to break that” attitude and that her album ‘Bangerz’ was her first attempt at breaking free from her Disney persona.
