Miley Cyrus Was Once Blamed For Smoking On The ‘Hannah Montana’ Set… But It Was Really Her Dad

Lots of good, clean fun going on at Disney, eh?

It seems to be a trend that when child stars leave their respective networks, they all have a “rebellious” phase where they act out, wear scandalous clothes, and party like there is no tomorrow. If they also kickstart their music career through the network, their music reflects this experimental phase.

But let’s be honest… growing up, we all went through a wild phase; most of us were not living in the public eye.

While Lindsay Lohan, Brittany Spears, Amanda Bynes, Bella Thorne, and more all fall into this category of child stars gone wild. When I think about someone like Justin Bieber, I’m surprised he’s turned out as well as he has. But an artist who comes to mind who, more or less, grew out of her rebellious phase is Miley Cyrus. But based on some recent news that Cyrus shared, apparently, she was being blamed for being wild long before her wild days actually started.

Miley Cyrus got her start by playing the character Hannah Montana on the hit Disney show, and it was a family affair with her father starring as her dad on screen, too. Heck, even her legendary godmother Dolly Parton made an appearance on the show.

Recently, Miley stopped by her mom and sister, Brandi’s, podcast, Sorry We’re Cyrus, and the trio took a walk down memory lane, revisiting the Hannah Montana days. At one point during their conversation, Miley was asked what memory still makes her laugh, and if I were Miley, I think this moment would still make me laugh, too.

At one point during filming, the production team got very upset when the smell of the devil’s lettuce started to stink up the set. When they started asking around who was responsible for it, some thought it was Miley’s doing. However, it was not….

“Dad smoking pot, and everyone blaming me for it. What? It’s hilarious.” 

Miley then jokes that it was before the days her mom began smoking, so he was hiding it from her.

“And he wasn’t sharing because that was because Tish wasn’t toking yet.” 

Tish then shares that she was getting calls from the set claiming that Billy Ray was lighting up, and she was appalled. She didn’t believe him and told the producers that it was Mitchel Musso.

“It WAS Mitchel Musso. It was Mitchel Musso. It was both.”

Miley quickly fired back at her mom.

When filming the show, Miley was merely 13 years old. But apparently, the cast was getting down like they were much older than their years. HA, what a trip. I’m sure the former producers at the show love hearing this come out all these years later. Especially after that whole Nickelodeon documentary…

If you want to hear it for yourself, she shares this information around the 1-hour, 7-minute mark.
