Miley Cyrus – Half sister

Miley Cyrus is a singer, actress and songwriter born on November 23, 1992 in Franklin, Tennessee. She was born under the name Destiny Hope Cyrus, but changed her name to Miley Ray Cyrus in 2008. The name change was because of her childhood nickname ‘Smiley’, which was often shortened to ‘Miley’ by her family.

Miley’s career started at a young age, when she made her debut as an actress in the series “Doc”, playing the role of Kylie. Later, she appeared in the fantasy drama movie titled “Big Fish” directed by Tim Burton. Miley played the role of Young Ruthie in this film and was credited under her birth name. Miley auditioned for “Hanna Montana” and for the movie “The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl in 3-D”, but when the opportunity arose, she chose the role of “Hanna Montana”.
