Miley Cyrus breaks down in tears during Disney Legend Acceptance Speech | E! News
Miley Cyrus has another crowning achievement as Disney honored her with a Disney Legend Award on Sunday at the D23 event. Her recognition came mainly for her appearance in the 2006-2011 Disney series, Hannah Montana. With the new title, Cyrus also surpasses other Disney stars, notably Selena Gomez, to become the youngest honoree.
Earlier this year, Cyrus also won the Grammy for Record of the Year for Flowers. By comparison, Gomez has never won a Grammy in her life. Interestingly, Gomez and Cyrus also had a reported feud that seemingly died down in recent years.
At Disney's D23 fan event, Miley Cyrus was honored for her impact on the media conglomerate's legacy along with thirteen other celebrities. She played the title role of Hannah Montana from 2006 to 2011 and she used her acceptance speech to thank fans of the show.
