“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.
