Miley Cyrus has revealed that her grandmother Dolly Parton’s advice played a key role in her Hannah Montana comeback.
In an interview with Variety, Cyrus revealed that Parton encouraged her to adopt what she jokingly described as a “terrible habit”.
“I learned this terrible habit — but I actually think it was good advice — from Dolly,” she told the outlet.
Cyrus said, “He told me that if you want something to happen, promote it before it exists. Then no one can say no.”
So, even before anything was planned, Cyrus started promoting “something special” for Hannah Montana’s 20th anniversary.
The singer continued, “So I started promoting the Hannah Montana 20th anniversary special, which literally didn’t exist.”
He further explained that he feels that “even Disney sometimes forgets the connection between me and Hannah.”
“It’s not just a TV show. I see every day how important Hannah is to people. When I travel, people bring me ‘Hannah’ stuff. They ask, ‘Are you ever going to do a second season?'” Miley Cyrus added.
Miley Cyrus saw fans’ excitement for the Hannah Montana celebration and told Disney, “I’m telling you, it’s going to be huge.”
It’s worth mentioning that Dolly Parton appeared in Miley Cyrus’ Hannah Montana as her character’s aunt, Auntie Dolly. Still, it is unclear whether she will appear in the 20th anniversary special.
