Trivia: The title of every episode is a reference to a song. For example, "Everybody Was Best Friend Fighting" refers to "Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting" and so forth.
Trivia: In the first season and part of the second as well, when Miley speaks you can plainly hear that she has some kind of retainer or the like in her mouth. However she must have gotten it removed by the last half of season 2, because you can no longer hear it when she talks. It seems to be more prevalent when she's "Miley" and not "Hannah" but it's also more audible in some episodes than others.
Trivia: In the episode where Lilly and Luke are going out, a man and his two daughters are waiting for a table. Hannah comes in and gets a table. The man says, "Why didn't we get in?" One of the daughters says, "Face it, Dad. She's bigger than you." The other daughter says,"Well, he is one of the makers of the show Seinfeld." Then the other one says, "Yeah, we could get in if Uncle Jerry were here." She is referring to Jerry Seinfeld.
Trivia: Miley Cyrus originally auditioned for the part of Lilly.
Trivia: Miley's sister, Noah, appears several times as an extra in the show. She usually has one or two lines.
Trivia: In the episode "No Sugar, Sugar," after Robby speaks to Jackson's girlfriend, Jackson says he was left on his Dad's doorstep by a wizard. He then proceeds to make a pointed hat. Disney has said this is an intentional reference to Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (Sorcerer's Stone in the US).
Trivia: Billy Ray Cyrus plays Robby Stewart, father of Jackson Stewart (Jason Earles). In real life, Cyrus is only 16 years older than Earles.
Trivia: Jason Earles was born in 1977, making him 28 when he first started filming Hannah Montana, playing a teenaged character.
Answer: Many actors and actresses tend to be quite secretive about their ages, probably to try to fend off being automatically dismissed for possible roles as too old or too young or even just because they consider it to be nobody's business but their own. Earles appears to be one of these; as a result, reports regarding his age tend to conflict. However, as a rule, public records can generally be accessed to give a reasonable idea of their true age. He is, for example, listed as an alumni of Rocky Mountain College, from which he graduated in 2000, unless he graduated at the age of ten, that rules out the idea that he's only nineteen, realistically putting his age at at least thirty years old. A name search engine on the internet turns up a Jason D Earles who lived in Billing, Montana, near the college in the right time period, with a listed birth date of April 1977 - an individual with the same name and birth date also has a listing for California, where the actor currently lives. Other information available online also tends to point to a likely birth year of 1977. While Earles and his agent have every right to fudge his age as it appears on his resume for professional purposes, most of the verifiable information suggests that he is indeed currently 32.
