Lainey Wilson really had the best of both worlds back in the day, as she began her career impersonating the Disney Channel character Hannah Montana, as the country star channeled her inner Miley Cyrus character professionally for five years. “It was like my childhood, high school gig. I did it from 8th grade to 12th grade. I did birthday parties, fairs, festivals,” she told The Country Daily in 2021 of her impersonator gig. But, in true Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus fashion, she also gave fans a look at “The Other Side of Me.” “Every now and then Lainey Wilson might open the show for Hannah Montana,” she recalled of how she’d also play her own music as herself during her impersonator gigs, but Montana’s fans wouldn’t exactly always be so interested. Oh well, you can’t win ’em all, right?
The “Heart Like A Truck” hitmaker also dished on her Hannah Montana gig while chatting with Taste of Country in 2021, admitting that she’d now very much retired her act but was looking forward to meeting Miley Cyrus to tell her all about her former job. “It’s going to be crazy when I meet Miley and be like ‘Hey, by the way, I just want to thank you because girl, I was making some bank in high school!'” she shared, admitting she would do an impressive three or four Hannah Montana parties every weekend and would charge around $400 a pop.
