What We Know About Those ‘Hannah Montana' 20th Anniversary Plans
If you were raised in the golden era of Disney Channel when Hannah Montana took over every fiber of your being, buckle up, because this news might have you saying, 'Sweet niblets.' ICYMI, Miley Cyrus recently teased that something big is coming just in time for the 20th anniversary of the beloved sitcom, which first aired on March 24, 2006. During an interview with On Air With Ryan Seacrest, Miley talked about everything, from her new album Something Beautiful to performing 'II Most Wanted' with Beyoncé in Paris. Among the topics discussed was Hannah Montana, as the 'Flowers' hitmaker pointed out that her 'Hannahversary' is coming up. 'It's about to be the 20-year Hannahversary in March!' she quipped, adding, 'I want to design something really, really special for it because it really was the beginning of all of this that now sits here today.' 'Without Hannah, there really wouldn't be she continued. 'It's so crazy to think that I started as a character that I thought would be impossible to shed, and now, that's something that when I walk into a space, it's looked at as this sense of nostalgia or something that you have from your childhood. But now, I've sort of been integrated into everyone's life as the character has.' Of course, longtime Hannah fans are scrambling to figure out what Miley has up her sequined sleeves—especially because most of us have grown-up money we're willing to blow for our childhood icon. Here's what we know about Miley Cyrus's Hannah Montana 20th anniversary plans so far... The last time Miley Cyrus toured as Hannah Montana was during the Best of Both Worlds Tour, which ran from October 2007 to January 2008, when she was 15 years old. If we were a movie (heh), something tells us a Hannah Montana 20th-anniversary tour would be canon. However, this is real life, and the real-life superstar behind Hannah has opened up about her rocky relationship with touring over the years. During an interview with British Vogue in 2023, she shared, 'Singing for hundreds of thousands of people isn't really the thing that I love. There's no connection. There's no safety. It's also not natural. It's so isolating because if you're in front of 100,000 people, then you are alone.' A few years later, she told Apple Music's Zane Lowe that her health ultimately played into the decision because of 'how taxing a physical live performance is.' 'I have this very large polyp on my vocal cord, which has given me a lot of the tone and the texture that has made me who I am,' she explained, 'but it's extremely difficult to perform with because it's like running a marathon with ankle weights on.' She went on to add, 'My voice is super unique because of it, but I do have this Reinke's Edema and I have this large polyp on my cords and I'm not willing to sever it because the chance of waking up from a surgery and not sounding like myself is a probability.' Aside from ^^^ all of that, Miley also revealed she wasn't legally allowed to perform her Hannah Montana songs since the show ended in 2011. During an interview on The Ringer podcast, she shared, 'After being inducted as a Disney Legend, I was given permission to perform those songs in the future, which is pretty cool.' While a tour probably isn't in the cards, the fact that Miley can sing her Hannah tracks changes things. She also has an ongoing relationship with Disney+, where she dropped her Endless Summer Vacation (Backyard Sessions) special and her visual album, Something Beautiful. Of course, that's where all her Hannah Montana episodes and movies live, too, and fans are theorizing that a 20th anniversary special of some sort could be in the works. 'A backyard session of Hannah Hits… THAT WOULD BE ICONIC,' one fan commented on a TikTok clip featuring Miley's interview with Ryan Seacrest. Someone else suggested a potential reunion episode with the show's original cast, while another suggested Miley should rip a page out of Taylor Swift's book, writing, 'A HANNAH MONTANA ERAS TOUR THAT'S FILMED AND PUT INTO THEATERS SINCE SHE CAN'T TOUR I BEG OF YOU.' Disney has yet to weigh in on any of these potential celebrations, but while we bust out our sequined outfits and dust off our blonde wigs, let us remind Miley and the House of Mouse that we have grown-up money to fuel childhood dreams!

Kelly Ripa, Mark Consuelos send love to Ryan Seacrest after former 'Live' cohost broke down on radio over dad's cancer
The family that Lives together, stays together, as Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos shared a moving tribute to former cohost Ryan Seacrest after the American Idol personality broke down in tears Sunday on his radio show over the latest development in his father's cancer journey. One day after Seacrest, who left Live in 2023, cried during an emotional recollection of his dad, Gary, and his battle with prostate cancer on the latest episode of the On Air radio program, Ripa and Consuelos took a few moments to honor Gary on their platform. "I want to send our love to our friend Ryan Seacrest," Ripa said on Tuesday morning's broadcast. "He's battling prostate cancer, and apparently it's gotten worse and it spread." Ripa pointed viewers to Seacrest's radio show for more information before telling her own audience that "we want to send our love" to the entire Seacrest family. Consuelos then looked to the camera and voiced a sweet message of his own, saying, "Love you guys." On Sunday, Seacrest became visibly emotional during a segment that saw him discuss the health journey his dad has been on for years. Seacrest said that his father's cancer was initially a private matter for the family, but said that it was still "extremely hard" to see his dad go through the ordeal, which began years ago upon Gary's initial diagnosis with prostate cancer, which eventually took a turn when he got pneumonia. "It didn't get better, it got worse and it spread. It didn't go well for him," Seacrest said of the development. "I was on an American Idol show live during last season, and my sister called me and she said, 'Dad is in the ICU. How fast can you get here?' I finished the show we were almost done, I didn't even remember what I was saying on the show." Seacrest said he flew to Atlanta to be with his family — including his mother, who is in cancer remission — as they made a tough decision about a serious surgical consideration. "I've never seen my strong, very smart father with the look on his face that he had, and the concern, looking at me to help guide the decision that should be made in this moment," Seacrest recalled. Later, after noting that his father hadn't left his home or a hospital bed for nearly five months, Seacrest broke down in tears as he told his audience about an optimistic photo he received from his family ahead of his dad's upcoming birthday. "Last night, I got the most powerful, good, happy picture from my dad and my mother, who was with him, they went to a beach to sit outside, they just wanted to look a the water," Seacrest said after pausing for several seconds to collect himself. "They can't do much. But, I saw him smile, I saw my mom smile."Seacrest said he was embarrassed over his expression of emotion, but that he was deeply moved seeing photos of "smiling and happiness and being together" at this stage of their 55-year marriage. The TV personality then said that his family is preparing for another round of cancer treatments, but that Gary's pneumonia is finally gone. Live With Kelly and Mark airs weekdays in syndication.
