“Hannah Montana” is well into its teenage years now.

A decade and a half has passed since Miley Cyrus made her Disney Channel debut on the explosively popular tween show.

The musical series premiered March 24, 2006, and followed Cyrus’ character Miley Stewart as she balanced her double life as a high schooler and as a famous pop star, along with her brother Jackson, his pesky sidekick Rico Suave, and of course, dad Robby — played by Cyrus’ real country legend father, Billy Ray Cyrus.

Miley, now 28, shared an emotional tribute to the show on her Twitter Wednesday, telling her character “I still love you 15 years later. #HMForever.”

In the emotional tribute, written on “Hannah Montana” letterhead, Miley shared the significance of the role in her career and personal life.

“Although you are considered to be an ‘alter ego,’ in reality there was a time in my life when you held more of my identity in your glove than I did in my bare hands.”

While the series launched the “Midnight Sky” singer’s acting and music careers, the show has also solidified itself as one of the most iconic Disney Channel sitcoms of the 2000s.

In honor of “Hannah Montana’s” 15th anniversary, take a look at where Cyrus and the other stars from the show are now.

Fans were first introduced to Cyrus, now 28, when she was barely a teenager. But since “Hannah Montana’s” ending, she has continued to act and sing her heart out. Her most recent album, “Plastic Hearts,” came out in 2020. Cyrus also starred in a “Black Mirror” episode called “Rachel, Jack, and Ashley Too,” where she played a singer named Ashley O. In 2018, she married her “Last Song” co-star Liam Hemsworth after dating on and off for 10 years. They announced their split just nine months later and their divorce was finalized in January 2020
