However, she had to contend with the difficult, sometimes troubling, intersection of fame and youth.
“Anyone, when you’re 20 or 21, you have more to prove.
‘I’m not my parents.’
‘I am who I am.'”
She also played the character in 2009’s theatrical release “Hannah Montana: The Movie.”
Cyrus also said, “Hannah’s for kids!
Miley is for grown-ass men in heels.”
During this part of her career, Cyrus had long, wavy brown hair.
First, she went for the big chop and debuted a new hairdo.
Cyrus’ wavy, honey-blond bob from the early 2010s was the epitome of glamorous.
Cyrus later dyed her hair blonder and cut it even shorter.
Her most dramatic transformation was in 2013 for the era of her “Bangerz” album.
She also wore a bikini top and hot pants in her skin tone while twerking on her duet partner.
The bright red, matte lipstick was another deviation from Cyrus' old look.
It inspired me to use my platform for something much bigger.
It was released on SoundCloud free of charge in 2015 before being sold in 2017.
Cyrus' looks for the Milky Milky Milk Tour of the album were another drastic transformation.
She also wore looks such as a mirrored, disco-ball-like jumpsuit with a matching helmet.
All those looks were a stark change from the days when Cyrus performed as Hannah Montana.
That performance also showed Cyrus fully embracing an edgy, punk-rock look.
For part of the performance, Cyrus wore an all-black leather outfit adorned with studs.
As for makeup, Cyrus combined a shimmery silver eyeshadow with black for a dramatic look.
She won the Grammys for Record of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance for the track.
That night’s style was another new look for Cyrus.
Many also believe thatCyrus nearly nailed her post-Liam-Hemsworth-breakup revenge dress for the awards show.
On the red carpet, she wore a skin-baring gold dress from Maison Margiela.
When accepting her award, Cyrus wore a sparkly black jumpsuit with a long keyhole cutout down the bodice.
With all the glitter, Cyrus is clearly a shining star.
