Miley Cyrus Explained Why She's No Longer "Accessible" To Her Fandom Since Her Days On "Hannah Montana"
It's been almost twenty years since Hannah Montana began, and Miley Cyrus is still giving us the best of both worlds.
So, Miley sat down for an interview with Apple Music 1's Zane Lowe, a rare moment for those following her career.
When Miley does an interview, she makes it count.
Sure, she interviewed Pamela Anderson for The Last Showgirl earlier this year and did My Next Guest Needs No Introduction with David Letterman in 2024.
But everybody knows a Zane Lowe interview hits different, so I was on the edge of my seat to hear what Miley had to say.

As Miley's career evolved from Can't Be Tamed and Bangerz to Plastic Hearts and Endless Summer Vacation, Miley's teenage "friend to the world" persona shifted, along with her accessibility to her fans.
The Hannah Montana star opened up about how her relationship with her fandom has transformed since she moved on from the Disney Channel, and it's eye-opening.

Miley referenced Beyoncé to explain the difference in her relationship with her fandom as her career flourished. "Beyoncé and I are very different," she said. "In her fandom, it's Queen Bey. She feels in this way of like a mother to the world."

"I feel like I felt more like a friend to the world, which is very different than like, a goddess. You know, she's kind of like, queen, and I always felt a very motherly feeling from her to her audience. But I think I feel more like your friend because we grew up together."
Miley's aware that the relationship has shifted since her early career.
"That's a change for my audience to feel that they don't have this direct access the way that you would've had every night on your TV," Miley told Zane.

"Because when you were little, I would talk you to sleep," Miley continued, "you would watch episodes of Hannah Montana and you would hear me all day if you wanted to listen to my music."

Facts. My little sister had early Hannah Montana music playing non-stop from the TV, and even when people like me hopped on the train (the Bangerz era), Miley dominated the airwaves.
Miley was the star of Hannah Montana from 2006 to 2011. She was barely a teenager when it all began — and she was everywhere.
"There was something accessible because I was on TV and I was touring," the "Flowers" singer added. "It was a different time in media, too."

Olympian Gabby Thomas Called Out A Heckler Who Made "Personal Insults" About Her "White Guy" Fiancé, And Followed Her Around The Track
If you buy something through a link in this article, we may earn commission. Pricing and availability are subject to change. Olympian Gabby Thomas responded to a "gross" spectator who shouted weird comments at her as she prepared for a track meet. Kevin Mazur/MG25 /for The Met Museum/Vogue On Monday, the 3-time Olympic gold medalist took to social media to call out the person who heckled her as she stretched before running in the Women's 100-meter dash at the Grand Slam Track meet at Franklin Field in Philadelphia on Sunday. Roger Wimmer/ISI Photos / Getty Images Gabby has won a total of five Olympic medals: three gold medals at the 2024 Paris Olympics (200-meter, 4x100-meter relay, 4x400-meter relay), a silver medal from the 2020 Tokyo Olympics (4x100-meter relay), and a bronze medal from the 2020 Tokyo Olympics (200-meter). Advertisement The 28-year-old ultimately finished in fourth place for the 100-meter and second place in the 200-meter sprint. She took to social media to reflect on the races. "Not the Slam results I hoped for, but when you race as often as I do, you can't win em all," she wrote on X (better known as Twitter), accompanied by photos of her at the race, a picture she took with fans, and a special gift she received from them. Roger Wimmer/ISI Photos / Getty Images "On the bright side, this is the best I have ever ran at this at this point in the season," she continued. "I'm so so grateful to everyone who continues to support me on my journey, win or lose- rain or shine. I love this sport sm and I'll see you guys on the track very soon!!!" Patrick Smith / Getty Images While many fans congratulated her...

In fact, he was there in person, at the track meet, to ensure she knew just how much he didn't want her to win. NurPhoto / NurPhoto via Getty Images "I made Gabby lose by heckling her," the X user tweeted. "And it made my parlay win." The tweet was accompanied by the bets he made against her, and a video of him yelling various comments about her, ranging from telling Gabby "not to choke" to weird comments about her interracial relationship. Emilee Chinn / Getty Images "Come on, Gabby. Don't choke like you did yesterday, Gabby. You're a choke artist. You're going down, Gabby." He continued to heckle her as someone next to him shouted, "Don't listen to him!" NurPhoto / NurPhoto via Getty Images "Come on, Melissa [Jefferson-Wooden]," he continued. "Melissa got married this year — [she] got a Black husband. Gabby got a white guy. I want Melissa to win." This was in reference to Gabby recently getting engaged to her entrepreneur fiancé, Spencer McManes, who happens to be white. NurPhoto / NurPhoto via Getty Images After sharing the post, some users called for the user to be banned from future track meets, as well as betting platforms. When Gabby found out the heckler was mocking her online and boasting about winning a bet at her expense, she decided to address him. NurPhoto / NurPhoto via Getty Images "This grown man followed me around the track as I took pictures and signed autographs for fans (mostly children) shouting personal insults- anybody who enables him online is gross." Hecklers have become a common occurrence at sporting events, but sometimes people take things too far. I'm glad Gabby addressed it the way she did.

Kylie Jenner Shared Her Breast Implant Sizing. We Asked Plastic Surgeons to Explain
Getty Images Kylie Jenner is getting transparent about the plastic surgery she's done. In a now viral TikTok comment, the beauty mogul shared the exact details and sizing of her breast implants. She even went a step further and shared the name of the doctor she used for the job: Garth Fisher, MD. On June 2, British YouTuber Rachel Leary posted a public callout on TikTok for Jenner to share the specifics of her boob job. 'Girl, please can you tell us what it is you asked for when you had your boobs done?' Leary said in the video. 'To me, you've got what I am looking for to have done in terms of a boob job. It's the most perfect, natural looking boob job ever. They're still big, but whatever way you had the implants, if they are implants, or if you had fat transfer, to me it is perfection. That is what I aspire mine to look like.' Ask and you shall receive. A day later Jenner, 27, responded in the comments from her verified account. '445 cc, moderate profile, half under the muscle!!! silicone!!! garth fisher!!! hope this helps lol.' It's clear Leary wasn't the only one who wanted Jenner's boob job deets. Fans in the comments expressed their gratitude for the information, sharing they also wanted the same look. 'Never saved something so fast in my life,' one wrote, while another praised Jenner's transparency. 'I love this. I didn't even know you could get half under the muscle! She a girls girl for sure.' But before you go running to book your appointment for Jenner's exact measurements, David Shafer, MD, a double board-certified plastic surgeon and founder of Shafer Clinic Fifth Avenue in NYC, says it's not that simple. For starters, it's important to keep in mind that plastic surgery is very specific to each person's unique body. 'When you look at what she had done and then with breast augmentation in general, you have to caution patients a little bit. Just because she had 445 ccs doesn't mean another person who got 445 ccs would have the same result that she has, because with implants, you need a match to the patient's anatomy,' says Dr. Shafer. However, using Jenner as inspiration is a good starting point. Dr. Shafer always encourages patients to come in with references during consultations. 'I like to talk to patients about their goals and expectations. I love to see inspiration pictures. So their inspiration board, bring a picture of Kylie or maybe bring a picture of somebody where they don't like how it looks.' If you want a look similar to Jenner's, your plastic surgeon can help find the right specs and sizing that makes sense for you. 'If you're somebody with a different body shape or size than Kylie and you put 445 in them, it's not going to look the same,' explains Dr. Shafer. 'You're looking more at the ratio of their chest diameter, their height, the size of the implants, the implant projection height, low, moderate or high to help kind of simulate maybe what Kylie had. But the number size of the implant might actually be different to get the same kind of ratio for the patient.' All that being said, Dr. Shafer says Jenners transparency is a good thing—and he hopes other celebs follow suit. 'So many times celebrities have stuff done and then they deny it, and it makes people who have never had anything done feel like there's something wrong with their body,' he says. 'When they're open about it, it really helps people feel like it's okay to search things out. It's okay to have procedures done when you go to the right people. And naming the doctors is also great because then they can look into that person or somebody with similar qualifications closer to where they live.' If you're curious about Jenner's boob job specifics and what they mean, we asked top plastic surgeons to break it down below. 'Kylie had 445 ccs, which is the size of the implant,' says Dr. Shafer. According to board-certified plastic surgeon Anthony Berlet, MD, this typically results in a full D cup, 'though the final look always depends on the patient's starting point and anatomy.' 'And then there's the profile of the implant. She had a moderate profile, and that's the most common,' says Dr. Shafer. In breast augmentation, there is low profile, moderate profile, and high profile, which describe how far the breast sticks out from the body and how wide the implant is. 'You're going to want to match this to the patient's body because someone who is shorter and wider, you might want to use a lower-profile implant so that it matches the width of their breast. But if you had a tall, thin person and you put a low-profile wide implant in them, it would be extending into their armpit,' says Dr. Shafer. According to Dr. Berlet, Jenner most likely used a standard breast augmentation technique called a dual-plane placement. 'Meaning the implant sits partially under the chest muscle and partially beneath the natural breast tissue,' he says. 'This approach helps the implant settle into a more natural, teardrop-like shape.' Dr. Shafer echoes that statement. 'Half under the muscle is typical for doing breast augmentation,' he says. 'When you put the implant just under the skin, especially if you have really thin skin, it can look almost like an apple with Saran Wrap on it." Placing the implant half under the muscle provides cushioning and a more natural look. 'If you just put it under the muscle and left the muscle connections at the bottom, the implant gets pushed up too high because the muscle's holding it up,' explains Dr. Shafer. 'So you divide the muscle on the bottom half of the breast just so the implant can relax and settle and have a more natural shape.' There are two main types of breast implants: silicone and saline. Both are encased in a silicone shell. Saline has salt water inside, while silicone is filled with cohesive silicone. 'And all modern implants now are a cohesive silicone,' says Dr. Shafer. 'It's kind of semisolid, so it holds its form, it holds its shape. And then how cohesive it is determines how stiff the implants are. So choosing which type of cohesiveness is also important for patients.' On Instagram Stories, Dr. Fisher confirmed that he used Natrelle silicone implants from Allergan Aesthetics for Jenner's augmentation.

‘S.W.A.T.' star Jay Harrington reacts to spinoff exclusion: Not on ‘my bingo card'
Jay Harrington is laying down the law. After starring as Sergeant David 'Deacon' Kay on 'S.W.A.T.' for eight seasons from 2017 to 2025, the show's series finale aired Friday, May 16. It was then announced on May 18 that a spinoff, 'S.W.A.T. Exiles,' was in the works with only 'S.W.A.T.' star Shemar Moore reprising his role of Daniel 'Hondo' Harrelson. Advertisement 9 David Lim, Shemar Moore, Anna Enger Ritch, Rochelle Aytes, Jay Harrington and Patrick St. Esprit attend CBS' Fall Schedule Celebration at Paramount Studios on May 02, 2024 in Los Angeles, California. Getty Images The CBS action series followed a Los Angeles Police Department Special Weapons and Tactics (S.W.A.T.) team as they faced off against crime in Los Angeles, Calif. It also starred Lina Esco, Kenny Johnson, Alex Russell, David Lim and Patrick St. Esprit. During a recent interview with TVLine, Harrington, 53, was asked if he was privy to any talks about a spinoff while filming the finale season. Advertisement 9 Jay Harrington in 'S.W.A.T.' CBS via Getty Images 'No. No. Not once,' the actor replied, adding that even while shooting the last episode, he still was unaware of any spinoff plans. 'Because of the way things had happened over the years with ['S.W.A.T.'] being cancelled, coming back, I had the thought, 'OK, we could come back,'' Harrington recalled. 'There's a chance, you never say die, especially with the streaming world and such. My choices in my head were that, or it's over. I did not have a spinoff on my bingo card, for sure.' Harrington shared that Moore, 55, contacted him privately before news of the spinoff broke. Advertisement 'Shemar reached out to all of us to say, 'This is what's going on…, and, you know, there's talk that they'll reach out to us about stuff,'' he explained. 'He wanted to be the one to tell us and say, 'Your reps will find out shortly.' That's when I told my reps, and they had no idea.' 9 The CBS hit action drama 'S.W.A.T.' CBS via Getty Images 'I texted him later and said, 'I'm sure you did your best,'' Harrington revealed. 'We've been brothers for years, so that doesn't change.' After being in the entertainment industry for so long, the 'Octopus 2000' vet said while he is aware that he isn't 'owed' anything, he does wish things were handled better. Advertisement 'It's just a fine line between 'owed' and 'just let me know,' for the studio just to say, 'Hey, this is what we're thinking…. It's a new idea, but this is the route we gotta go, and unfortunately, the way it's structured, we want to make a clean break, start fresh.' Well, what do you say to that? 'OK, well, good luck!'' 9 Shemar Moore and Jay Harrington attend the opening ceremony of the 58th Monte Carlo TV Festival on June 15, 2018 in Monte-Carlo, Monaco. FilmMagic 'So if there was any disappointment, it's that when they announced it, we weren't mentioned at all,' Harrington expressed. 'That was it. And it was short-lived because I thought, 'I'm not going to let that take away from what I know in my heart is eight years of putting in some great work.'' The 'Better off Ted' alum did confess that, of course, as a 'human being,' he felt 'stung' by the news. 'I didn't want to go to that place,' Harrington continued, 'because I thought, truthfully, 'It's show business.' It's a business.' However, the 'Benched' actor isn't discounting coming back to 'S.W.A.T. Exiles' if asked. 9 Shemar Moore and Jay Harrington on 'S.W.A.T.' CBS 'You know, you never say never, you never close any doors,' Harrington offered. 'I'd be interested to see if that's the direction they go, and, 'How do they do that?' That would certainly play a part. I've also had a great time directing over the years, and I'll be open to that possibility if that call [to direct] comes as well. You never say never.' Advertisement After news of the spinoff broke, Lim, 41, who played Officer Tan, released a statement saying that the news of 'S.W.A.T. Exiles' did 'sting.' 'Being a part of S.W.A.T. for the past 8 seasons has been one of the great honors of my life,' he wrote. 'I poured my heart into playing Tan — and even more than that, into the team and friendships we built on and off screen.' 9 Shemar Moore and Jay Harrington in the hit CBS show 'S.W.A.T.' CBS via Getty Images 'I'd be lying if I said the rollout of the new spinoff didn't sting,' Lim admitted. 'It was tough to see it announced just two days after our finale — with no mention of the cast who helped build S.W.A.T. from day one. After 8 incredible seasons, it felt like we were brushed aside when there could've been a moment of reflection and recognition — for the people who built this show, and for the impact it had on so many.' Advertisement Despite the hurt, the actor is proud of what they built over eight years. 'No version of this story can take that away,' he added. 'Thanks for riding with us. Always. Roll SWAT. 🖤.' 9 Jay Harrington in 'S.W.A.T.' CBS via Getty Images 'S.W.A.T' was originally a revival of the 1970s cop drama of the same name. Advertisement It was then canceled in 2023 before, due to fan demand, it was picked up again for what was supposed to be a final Season 7. It was then revived for Season 8 in 2024. In March, the network pulled the plug on the series for good. 9 Shemar Moore and Jay Harrington attend the opening ceremony of the 58th Monte Carlo TV Festival. FilmMagic 'S.W.A.T. season eight, here we are, three weeks away from the finale we are canceled again,' Moore told followers in an Instagram video at the time. 'It sucks, it's sad. I had to give a speech today on set to the crew. And obviously I'm biased, the most amazing crew in Hollywood. Just good people, no jerks. People who show up, sacrifice here and there for their families, and work their tails off to make 'S.W.A.T.'' Advertisement 'Uncancelled, twice, two years in a row. Now I don't know my history, but how many shows get to say that? I'm gonna say none or I'm gonna say that we're close to one of the none,' the star added. 'But we did that, we did that. We are so proud.' 9 Jay Harrington attends the 'Forever' premiere presented by Terry McMillan at DGA Theater Complex on August 20, 2024 in Los Angeles, California. Getty Images for Lifetime Moore admitted that he doesn't think canceling them was the right move. 'We made a hit television show that the world loved to watch,' he shared. 'So, I say to CBS, if you're done, I know it's about money, optics, politics, I don't think you're making the right choice.'
