In celebration of the Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special’s release on Disney+, Miley Cyrus, many of her former costars and a handful of famous faces gathered Monday (March 23) for a nostalgic premiere at El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles.
The night’s guest of honor showed up on the purple carpet in her famous alter ego’s iconic blonde hair, a design of her younger self printed on her shirt. In addition to her fiance, Maxx Morando, and Alex Cooper, who conducted an interview with Cyrus for the special, the “Flowers” singer made sure to pose with several of her fellow Hannah Montana alums. That included Jason Earles, who played her lovably annoying older brother, Jackson, and Moisés Arias, the actor behind small-but-mighty foil Rico. Cody Linley – who portrayed Jake, Miley’s on-off love interest – was also present, as were Shanica Knowles and Anna Maria Perez de Tagle, who served as fictional Seaview Junior-Senior High mean girls Amber and Ashley.
Plus, stars such as Jaden and Willow Smith, Jojo Siwa, REI AMI and Lainey Wilson showed up in their shiniest Hannah glam, while Cyrus’ sister Brandi and mom, Tish, posed on the carpet as well.
The Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special dropped on Disney+ on March 24, giving fans the chance to celebrate with Cyrus as she revisited the show’s sets, sang iconic soundtrack hits “This Is the Life” and “The Climb,” and chatted with special guests Selena Gomez and Chappell Roan. Billy Ray Cyrus – Miley’s dad in real life and on the show – also reunited with his daughter to look back on the time they spent acting opposite one another.
Such a special occasion called for an extra special premiere, and Billboard has some of the best photos from the event. Check them out to see who stood out on the “Hannahversary” carpet below.
