Actress's childhood
At birth, the girl was named Destiny Hope, which literally translates as “fate and hope.” There were also four brothers and sisters in her family - Brandy, Brayson, Noah and Tracy. All of them took up acting and musical activities at a conscious age. The father of the future star was the famous performer Billy Ray, and the girl’s grandfather made a significant contribution to the politics of that time. The popular singer Dolly Parton became the godmother of young Destiny.
Because of her wide and cheerful smile, Miley received her nickname, which she later made into her real name. From early childhood, her parents little by little prepared her for the world of show business. The girl got rid of her inhibitions thanks to cheerleading, attended acting classes, and studied vocals in her free time.
The future singer grew up on a farm in the small town of Franklin, where she went to school. But already at the age of eight, the family had to move to Toronto. This decision was related to Billy Ray's participation in the filming of the series "Doctor". In several episodes, his daughter kept him company, playing cameo roles.
Subsequently, the actress repeatedly stated that her interest in the career of an artist began to manifest itself at this time. The father regularly took his daughter with him to the set, after which young Miley became excited about the idea of a future in cinema. The final decision was made after visiting the musical “Mamma Mia”.
Biography
And she was born in a city called Nashville. Her father is the well-known country music singer Billy Ray Cyrus, and her mother is Letitia Jean Cyrus. It is curious, but the name Miley was not given to the girl at birth, but much later. Letitia and Billy Ray decided to give their newborn daughter the double name Destiny Hope, consisting of the words “fate” and “hope.” It was as if the parents foresaw that the girl would really achieve a lot in the future.
Destiny lived a happy childhood and, as her family notes, was always a very active, smart and incredibly cheerful child. The smile literally never left her face! It was thanks to this that the girl received the nickname Miley, derived from “smiley”, which means smiling. After all, even after looking at Miley Cyrus’s Instagram, it becomes immediately clear that the girl has not lost her smile and her parents clearly were not mistaken with the nickname!
The girl has a fairly large family: Brandi and Trace are Miley’s brother and sister on her mother’s side, Cody’s brother Christopher on her father’s side, and Brayson and Noah, the common children of Billy Ray and Letitia.
The boys spent their childhood close to nature on a farm in Franklin.
Now our heroine is a brave and scandalous star, but not all fans know that as a young girl, she did not miss a single church service and even wore a purity ring. What amazing changes!
On her Instagram, Miley Cyrus often posts photos with her family. In addition, in a girl’s profile you can sometimes see funny pictures from her childhood and youth, when she looked completely different.
First roles
The girl's first experience in cinema happened quite early, in 2003. It is noteworthy that this happened in Tim Burton’s excellent work “Big Fish,” so there is no point in Miley complaining about the minor role. At the same age, the girl unexpectedly learns about the Disney Channel's casting for a role in a new series. She takes part without expecting a leading role. To Miley's surprise, the producers set up her next meeting, during which they offer her the role of Hannah Montana, a teenage girl who leads a double life due to her enormous popularity.
After filming in a teenage series, the burden of fame fell on the girl. She did not have time to study at school, and therefore had to take private lessons separately. From the very beginning, Letizia became her daughter's agent, a position she never ceased to hold. The actress carefully studies all the proposals, helping Miley make the right decision.
Tragedy in the family of Miley Cyrus!
The young and successful singer “We Can't Stop” Cyrus shared with the public the tragedy that happened in her family: the star’s beloved grandmother passed away. Mourning the death of a loved one, Miley decided not to hide what was going on in her soul and said that her beloved grandmother, with whom she was very close, died at the age of 85.
