Miley Cyrus didnt have permission to perform Hannah Montana songs: It was sad
Los Angeles, Jun 8 (PTI) Hollywood actor-singer Miley Cyrus says she wasn't allowed to perform songs from her show "Hannah Montana" after exiting Disney.
Cyrus rose to fame with her role in the show, which ran from 2006-2011 on Disney channel. In "Hannah Montana", Cyrus portrayed the role of a teenager, living a dual life as a regular girl and a popular pop star.
The 32-year-old singer, who has tracks such as "We Can't Stop", "Wrecking Ball", and "Flowers" to her credit, said she didn't want to perform the "Hannah Montana" songs, but it did make her upset.
"After I left Disney, I wasn't allowed to perform any of the 'Hannah Montana' music. It's not like I wanted to, I mean, performing 'The Best Of Both Worlds' between 'We Can't Stop' and 'Wrecking Ball,' wouldn't have really made sense," she said on The Ringer podcast.
"It was still sad knowing those songs have my voice, my face, and I wasn't allowed to sing them," she added.
Last year, Cyrus was named a Disney Legend at D23 2024. Post which, she was allowed to perform the songs of the show. "It was pretty cool," she added.
Disney Legend is an honourific title bestowed by The Walt Disney Company on individuals who have made a significant impact on the Disney legacy.
Cyrus' latest project is a 55-minute visual album, titled "Something Beautiful". It will release in theatres worldwide on June 27. Prior, it will hit big screen in US on June 12. It comprises 13 tracks.

Jared Leto accused of sexual misconduct: James Gunn's 2018 tweet resurfaces; 9 women, including minors come forward
Oscar-winning actor and musician Jared Leto , is facing serious allegations of sexual misconduct, with nine women coming forward to describe troubling past encounters with the star. Among the accusers, some allege that the interactions occurred when they were underage, sparking scrutiny of Leto's past behaviour. While the reports have sent shockwaves among fans of the Suicide Squad actor, other social media users have resurfaced past tweets from director James Gunn , who had made pointed remarks about Leto's alleged interest in 'young women'. Back in 2018, Disney star Dylan Sprouse tagged the actor in a tweet and said, "Yo @JaredLeto now that you've slid into the dm's of every female model aged 18-25, what would you say your success rate is?" In a now-deleted post, Gunn responded to Sprouse's criticism of the actor's alleged pattern of dating much younger women. In his post, the director commented, 'He starts at 18 on the Internet?' "Hey remember that one time James Gunn said that Jared Leto tries to hook up with underage fans and nothing ever came of it," a fan asked sharing a screenshot of the now deleted post. Additionally, reports also state that Gunn previously referenced Leto in a Periscope livestream in 2015, where he made comments about the actor's behaviour. While the video has since been deleted, Gunn later apologised for the session, attributing it to being 'Ambien-fuelled' and posted at 3 am. According to a detailed report by People magazine, the sexual misconduct accusations against Gunn span more than a decade. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pinga-Pinga e HBP?

Some of the said incidents reportedly took place when the accusers were aged between 16 or 17 years old. Reports record one of the women, now a model, recounting meeting Leto at an animal rights event in 2008 when she was 16. She claims they stayed in touch via email before she visited his studio the following year, where Leto allegedly flirted with her and emerged naked from a room unexpectedly. 'I thought maybe this was just what adult men do. ' Another woman said she met Leto at a café in Los Angeles when she was 16. She alleges that the actor later called her using sexually explicit language. Her mother, who reportedly overheard parts of the conversation, confirmed the story to the publication. In a statement to People, a representative for Leto 'expressly denied all allegations.' In the wake of the resurfaced allegations, DJ Allie Teilz also took to social media, claiming she was 'assaulted and traumatised' by Leto when she was 17.

Is Camp Rock 3 finally happening? Alyson Stoner weighs in on the rumors
If you were a kid in the early 2000s, there's a good chance Camp Rock (2008) was your entire personality. The Disney Channel original movie, featuring pop royalty Demi Lovato and the Jonas Brothers, was the ultimate fantasy for kids — who doesn't want to spend their summer singing by a lake with their favourite superstar and eventually falling in love? Then came Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam (2010), with bigger dance numbers and deeper drama. It tackled themes like betrayal, first love, the struggle to stay authentic, and — of course — musical battles that defined what it meant to be a tween in that era. And now, 15 years later, whispers of a third installment are sending fans into a nostalgic frenzy. So, is Camp Rock 3 finally in the works? According to Alyson Stoner, who played Lovato's morally confused best friend Caitlyn Geller, they haven't received the call. But they're hearing the rumors just like the rest of us. 'I haven't heard about Camp Rock 3, but you want to know how I heard about Phineas and Ferb's new season? From the internet,' Stoner, now 31, said while promoting the animated show's return. 'It wouldn't be the first time,' they added, referencing the classic Disney move of keeping actors out of the loop. 'I truly cannot confirm or deny anything. They haven't given me a ring.' Stoner's comments come just after a mini Camp Rock reunion of sorts at JONASCON, where Joe, Nick, and Kevin Jonas marked their band's 20th anniversary. With nostalgia riding high and revivals being all the rage, fans are hoping lightning strikes one more time at Camp Rock. But if a sequel were to happen, what would it even look like? 'I wonder where that plot line would go,' Stoner mused. 'It would thicken. It would have to thicken quite a bit to get all of us back.' So, while there's no official confirmation (yet), one thing's clear: the fandom is ready. Whether it's a gritty adult spinoff or just a nostalgic docu-style reunion, the campers want back in. Until then, we'll just keep singing and manifesting.

Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Speaking on The Ringer podcast, the 32-year-old singer reflected on her post-Disney years and the emotional toll of being denied access to the music that launched her career. 'After I left Disney, I wasn't allowed to perform any of the Hannah Montana music,' she said. 'It's not like I wanted to—performing The Best of Both Worlds between We Can't Stop and Wrecking Ball wouldn't have really made sense. But it was still sad knowing those songs have my voice, my face, and I wasn't allowed to sing them.' Cyrus shot to fame between 2006 and 2011 as the lead in Hannah Montana, portraying a teenager living a double life as an ordinary girl and a famous pop star. The Disney Channel series became a cultural phenomenon, turning Cyrus into a household name and a teen idol. While the Flowers hitmaker moved on to forge a successful music career of her own, the limitations imposed on her use of Hannah Montana material remained a sore point. However, that changed last year when Disney formally recognised her contributions to the company's legacy. In 2024, she was honoured as a Disney Legend during the D23 Expo, a title reserved for individuals who have made a lasting impact on the brand. 'It was pretty cool,' Cyrus added, reflecting on finally being able to revisit her early work after the honour. The singer is currently gearing up for the release of her newest project, Something Beautiful—a 55-minute visual album set to premiere in theatres worldwide on June 27, following a U.S. theatrical debut on June 12. The visual experience will feature 13 tracks and marks her most ambitious creative venture to date.
