"Hannah Montana" follows Miley Stewart, a tween originally from Tennessee, who now lives in Malibu, California, with her older brother Jackson and widowed father Robby, a songwriter. With her best friends Lilly and Oliver, Miley traverses the intricate web of school life on "Hannah Montana" - from getting good grades, to impressing her crush, to being accepted by the various social cliques. Miley can always count on her dad to offer a "down home" quip to help make any situation better.
As awkward as Miley sometimes feels as a teenager on "Hannah Montana," she undergoes a transformation when performing on stage. Unbeknownst to the students in her school, Miley lives a double life as pop singer Hannah Montana. She travels the world, entertaining fans with the music written by her manager/dad. A straight blonde wig combined with a flashy pop star style allows Miley to keep her identity as an international star a secret - and most importantly, she knows that she is liked for who she really is. When Hannah's two biggest fans - and Miley's closest friends - discover the true person beneath the costume, Miley is relieved to share her secret with Lilly and Oliver as they endure the trial and tribulations of middle school.
Miley lives a life on "Hannah Montana" that any kid dreams to have. While the glamour and fame does have its perks - limousines, cool clothes and hanging out with celebrities, Miley most wants to be treated like any other teenager and maintain the typical life led by kids her age.
