Speculation is mounting regarding a possible appearance by Justin Bieber at the upcoming 20th-anniversary celebration of Hannah Montana. Miley Cyrus, who starred as the titular character in the Disney Channel series, has announced plans for a special project to commemorate the show's two-decade milestone. The anniversary marks 20 years since the show's debut in March 2006, and fans are eagerly anticipating how Cyrus will honor the occasion.
Cyrus first hinted at the celebration at the Palm Springs International Film Festival, drawing attention to her hairstyle, reminiscent of her Hannah Montana character. When asked about the tribute, she said, "We're working hard on 'em". Cyrus has expressed her desire for the anniversary project to resonate meaningfully with longtime fans, emphasizing her appreciation for the dedicated audience that has supported her over the years. "I want the fans to really feel seen," she stated, acknowledging the significance of Hannah Montana in shaping her public persona. "I want to design something really, really special for it because it really was the beginning of all of this that now sits here today. Without Hannah, there really wouldn't be this kind of this me".
While Cyrus has remained tight-lipped about the specific details of the celebration, rumors are swirling about potential events and collaborations. One popular theory involves a one-night-only concert at Madison Square Garden in March. A fan page on X wrote, "Miley Cyrus rumored to soon return as Hannah Montana for a One Night Only Concert at the legendary Madison Square Garden in March, with a Disney+ presale, according to insiders".
Adding fuel to the fire, there's growing speculation that Justin Bieber might join Cyrus for the anniversary event. While neither Cyrus nor Bieber have confirmed this, the possibility has generated significant buzz among fans. Some fans are hoping for a documentary, reruns, concerts, or even a full tour to mark the occasion.
Bieber's connection to Cyrus dates back to the early days of his career, with the two often appearing at the same events and sharing a similar fanbase. In fact, Bieber's 2011 3-D concert film, Justin Bieber: Never Say Never, was compared to Cyrus's 2008 Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert. A mashup of Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber songs has also been created.
The potential for a Cyrus-Bieber collaboration at the Hannah Montana anniversary event has sent social media into a frenzy. Fans are eagerly sharing their hopes and predictions, with many expressing excitement at the thought of seeing the two pop icons share the stage.
As the 20th anniversary of Hannah Montana approaches in March, fans can expect further announcements. Whether or not Justin Bieber will be involved remains to be seen, but the anticipation surrounding the celebration is undeniable.
