In 2004, Miley beat out 1,000 hopefuls to land the starring role of Miley Stewart (originally Chloe Stewart) on the hit Disney show Hannah Montana. The tween series features a young pop superstar who hides her celebrity identity to be an everyday teen in real life.

To accommodate filming, the entire family moved to Los Angeles, California, in 2005; Billy Ray played her fictional dad-manager on the show. Miley released a successful Hannah Montana soundtrack album in 2006.
