November 23: Miley Cyrus is 21-years-old today.



Born Destiny Hope Cyrus in 1992 in Nashville, Tennessee, Miley is best known for her role as Miley Stewart/Hannah Montana on the Disney Channel sitcom Hannah Montana and for her pop music success. She is considered a teen idol with the younger set due to success of the Hannah Montana franchise. Her father is country singer Billy Ray Cyrus.

 
It's been reported her parents named her Destiny Hope because they believed that she would accomplish great things with her life. They gave her the nickname "Smiley" - later shortened to "Miley" - because she smiled so often as a baby.

She began to cultivate an adult image in 2009 with the release of The Time of Our Lives which features a more mainstream pop sound and includes her popular single, "Party in the U.S.A." She also starred in the film The Last Song, a coming-of-age drama.



In 2009, Cyrus earned a nomination for the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song for her performance of the animated film Bolt's theme song, "I Thought I Lost You." That same year, She also reprised her role as Miley Stewart/Hannah Montana in Hannah Montana: The Movie.
