Billy Ray and Miley Cyrus are "best friends"

Billy_ray_cyrus_350Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus admits she first had reservations ofher father Billy Ray playing her dad on the show, but now shewouldn’t have it any other way. The 14-year-old says it feels natural to play father and daughter and loves working with him.

[At first] I was like, ‘Oh, great.This is going to be really, really weird.’ Now when we get in fights,I’m just stuck with him at work. But after like two weeks, it felt likehow it was supposed to be. I don’t think anything could have beeneasier on us because it makes our jobs really natural. I love beingwith my dad. He’s my best friend. I hate when I hear cheesy answersfrom people, but seriously, it’s not, like, a fake thing.

Miley loves working with Billy Ray so much that all she does is talk about him, which grates her friends at times.

All my friends are always about to smack me because all I do is talk about my dad.

She has every reason to be a proud daughter as Billy Ray competes on Dancing with the Stars, which Miley attends every week.

I love bringing my friends to the show so I can show off my daddy a little bit.

I used to live very near Billy Ray’s ranch in Tennessee. He and Destiny (“Miley”) would come to a little cafe my husband and I ate at frequently. They are just wonderful people. Miley is someone I actually don’t mind my two little granddaughters looking up to so, Miley, don’t ever change sweetie! Oh, and BTW, Miley got her unusual nickname from her father. When she was a baby, he called her “Smiley” for obvious reasons. Somewhere along the way, the “S” was dropped and she became “Miley”. Thought I would share this cute story.
