Miley Cyrus - Detailed Biography
American
actress Miley Cyrus, real name Destiny Hope Cyrus, was born on November 23,
1992, in Nashville, Tenn. Miley Cyrus is the daughter of country singer/actor
Billy Ray Cyrus, and her name comes from the shortened nickname for "Smiley". In
2006, she landed the role of a regular girl and rock star on the Disney channel
original series "Hannah Montana." Also, her favorite sport is cheerleading.
The daughter of country-music superstar Billy Ray Cyrus, Miley Cyrus got her
start in the entertainment industry on an episode of her father's PAX TV medical
series Doc before appearing in Tim Burton's fantastical 2003 adventure Big Fish.
A fateful appearance as the character Hannah Montana in the Disney Channel
series The Suite Life of Zack and Cody followed in 2006, and her character
proved so popular that a spin-off series called Hannah Montana was launched
shortly thereafter. In the series, Miley Cyrus portrayed a fun-loving California
teen who just happens to be moonlighting as a world-famous pop star. Only
Hannah's family (which includes her real-life father on the series) and her two
closest friends, Lilly (Emily Osment) and Oliver (Mitchel Musso), know the truth
about Hannah's remarkable secret life.
