AceShowbiz - This year has been a triumphant one for Miley Cyrus, who recently won her first Grammy Award and was subsequently inducted into the Disney Legends Hall of Fame. At the star-studded D23 Expo, Lainey Wilson introduced Cyrus and performed a spirited rendition of the "Hannah Montana" classic "The Best of Both Worlds".

In her acceptance speech, Cyrus expressed her gratitude and shared her experiences working with Disney. "I'm proud to have been 'Hannah Montana,' " she said. "This award is dedicated to her amazing fans and to everyone who made my dream a reality."

Cyrus also acknowledged her fears and vulnerabilities. "Legends get scared, too," she said. "But we do it anyway. And you can do that every single day. It's legendary to be afraid and do it anyway."

Cyrus' journey with Disney began at a young age with her starring role on "Hannah Montana". The series, which chronicled the double life of an ordinary girl and a pop star, became a global phenomenon. It spawned a world tour, concert film and feature film, propelling Cyrus to stardom.

Over the years, Cyrus has evolved her image and musical style. She's shed her squeaky-clean image with hits like "We Can't Stop" and "Malibu", but she's also embraced her Disney roots. Last year, she released the Disney+ concert special "Endless Summer Vacation (Backyard Sessions)".

At 31 years old, Cyrus becomes the youngest person ever to be named a Disney Legend. The honor recognizes individuals who have made significant contributions to the company's legacy. Past honorees include Christina Aguilera, Stan Lee and Oprah Winfrey.

Cyrus' induction into the Disney Legends Hall of Fame serves as a testament to her enduring impact on both the entertainment industry and generations of Disney fans worldwide.
