I am fully committed to Hannah Montana. It's what gave me this amazing opportunity to reach out to so many people. I'm really excited about our new season. We are making great new episodes that I can't wait for our fans to see and I'm looking forward to the 'Hannah Montana' movie that will be out in the spring.

When I was in Nashville, I went to our Macy's and went and tried on all the Hannah Montana stuff. Then I said, 'This is weird, I'm wearing my face.

I have more fun playing Hannah, because I like to sing and dress up.

I am fully committed to Hannah Montana. It's what gave me this amazing opportunity to reach out to so many people.

Life is all about having a good time.

I take a hiatus every now and again, but I'm not good at that.

I've got high standards when it comes to boys. As my dad says, all girls should! I'm from the South - Tennessee, to be exact - and down there, we're all about southern hospitality. I know that if I like a guy, he better be nice, and above all, my dad has to approve of him!

Despite the aweful paparazzi drama that people seem to believe, i am still just like you...i obsess over hot guys, get told what to do, and go to school. Believe what you want, but i am NORMAL...whatever that means :)

You've got a million ways to make me laugh

You know you're a stoner when your friends make you a Bob Marley cake.

No one is talking about the man behind the ass. It was a lot of 'Miley twerks on Robin Thicke,' but never, 'Robin Thicke grinds up on Miley.' They're only talking about the one that bent over. So, obviously there's a double standard.

My dad has never actually grounded me. He always tells my mom to do it. He tells her, "Miley was so bad today, you need to ground her."

You can't live a positive life with a negative mind.

I get more anxious than nervous before a concert.

Nobody`s Perfect

As soon as I step on that stage, nothing matters. I don't think of it as work. It's just so much fun.

People are always telling me that i'm not like other girls...that i dont dress like other girls...that i dont act like other girls. But i'm my OWN person...i go to the beat of my own drum.

I'm pretty outspoken.

People more think of me as a party animal. Which, I am a self-proclaimed party animal, but I'm also the hardest working person you'll ever know.

I love everything [Jessica Simpson] ever has on! Jessica can definitely come pick me up in her little Mercedes and take me shopping if she wants!

Ever since I was little, people would always make jokes about my low voice. But I think it's so cool that you don't have to have the picture-perfect, girly voice to do an animated film. I think it's great for kids with different voices to know that they could do something like this.

I'm not saying you need to take a break because you're crazy. I'm saying you need to take a break so you can be crazy, and people aren't going to judge you. You're going to do dumb stuff from here on out. But do it in your own time. Do it safely. You can afford to protect yourself and still have fun.

I always love coming to Disneyland but celebrating my birthday here with my family, friends and the kids from YSA is really awesome!, this is a night I'll never forget.

Honestly, musicals? I just can't. What if this was real life and I was just walking down the street on Rodeo Drive and all of a sudden I just burst into song about how much I love shoes?

There's nothing more fun than being out on stage and getting the vibe from the crowd. There's nothing like being on a set where you are there to make other people happy and to make them laugh. That's the best job in the world.

I love looking out at 27 semis and being like, every single one of those semi trucks is there to put together my stage.

I'm a bit of a tomboy.

No matter how long what I'm doing here lasts, I want to be a songwriter for the rest of my life. I love it and it's my escape.

I love tube socks!

Whoa, you got my head in the cloudsWhoa, you got me thinking out loudThe more you dream about me the more I believeThat nothing's ever out of reachSo dream, dream, dream

If someone tells you you're not beautiful, turn around and walk away so they canhave a great view of your fabulous ass.

It's so weird. I like shrimp. I will eat like a whole thing of shrimp. I'm a vegetarian, but that is the only thing that I will eat. So, I will eat and eat shrimp and, like, fries.

When Life Puts You in Tough Situations, Don't Say 'Why Me', Say 'Try Me'

I can mix and match a cute shirt with some skinny jeans under a leather jacket and it looks fun and unique.

People ask me how I stay happy and sane: I never google myself.

I remember when we kissed. I still feel it on my lips. The time you danced with me with no music playing. I remember the simple things. I remember till I cry. But the one thing I wish I'd forget, the memory I wanna forget is goodbye.

When you ask "Do you wanna dance, my barefoot Cinderella? Don't need no slippers or a party dress,the way you're lookin' right now is what I like the best", and then you... Say "do you wanna take a chance? Stay with me forever, no one will ever be more beautiful my barefoot, my barefoot Cinderella.

I'm not letting any stupid decisions get in my way. I want to be a role model, letting girls know that they can follow their dreams.

There's always gonna be another mountain, I'm always gonna wanna make it move, Always gonna be a uphill battle, Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose, Ain't about how fast I get there, Ain't about what's waiting on the other side, It's the climb

I don't think famous is what I necessarily went for. The media was never something I really looked into and as I see it happening to me, I think I was very smart when I was younger to not want that. It doesn't mean it's not going to happen, I just avoided it as much as possible.

Hollywood is a coke town, but weed is so much better. And Molly, too; those are happy drugs - social drugs. They make you want to be with friends. You're out in the open. You're not in a bathroom.

Anyone that hates on you is always below you, because they're just jealous of what you have.

I'm kind of bipolar in my acting choices because I just want to do a little bit of everything.

I think that turning on the charm without being fake is really important.

When preparing for a concert, I do lots of training. I work with a choreographer to create great moves and then I have to keep my voice strong with lessons.

My dad says I could sing before I could talk, if that's possible. I was always humming and things like that.

People are impressed with me - because I can sleep for just 45 minutes - I'm used to it.

All I do is work, so I eat to live and to keep going.
