Although sitcoms for young people have long been produced by television stations, the real breakthrough came in 2006, when the series “Hannah Montana” appeared on the Disney Channel. It depicted the fate of a young girl who led a double life – by day she was an ordinary student of Miley Stewart, and by night she put on a blonde wig and became a pop star named Hannah Montana. The production is still considered one of the most popular in the history of the station, and a total of four seasons have been produced.
Miley Cyrus had support not only in her father on the set of the series
During the five years of filming the series, we could see a huge transformation of Miley Cyrus, who played the main character. It is thanks to this production that it gained international fame and remains at the top to this day. The adventure in “Hanna Montana” did not start alone, because the cast of the series also included her father Billy Ray Cyrus, who was a country music star. In the production, he also played her father, and his story was presented in a similar way as it is in reality.
However, in addition to her father, Miley Cyrus may have met one other close person on the set of the series. Well, it was in the production that Dolly Parton, who is the godmother of the singer, also appeared. The 77-year-old star played the same role in “Hannie Montana” as in real life, and her performance can be described as a cameo – her fate was presented exactly as it really is.

The country music legend became Cyrus’s godmother through a friendship with her father that began in the 1990s. Billy Ray Cyrus simply asked Parton, and Parton immediately agreed. Hence the idea for her participation in the Disney Channel series. Although the artist only appeared in three episodes of “Hanna Montana”, she was very well remembered by the fans of the series. She was also the character who helped Miley recover from revealing her secret in one of the last episodes. Privately, the stars have very good contact to this day, and recently they even hosted a New Year’s Eve party organized by NBC television together.
