Miley Cyrus Knows Hannah Montana Is a Drag Queen

Miley Cyrus understands what it’s called when you put on a wig, slap on some makeup, and call yourself a silly name. That’s drag, baby. “I’m surrounded by gays,” Cyrus told Jimmy Kimmel on a May 22 visit to Jimmy Kimmel Live! to promote her upcoming visual album, Something Beautiful, out May 30. Cyrus said that she’d recently shown Hannah Montana to a group of her gays for the first time; they didn’t know Hannah well because they were “Nickelodeon gays” — which means they preferred “boogers and bro jokes” as opposed to Disney’s glamour. But, Cyrus said, what they didn’t realize is that Hannah is “a teenage pop star wearing a wig, being the most famous drag queen for kids ever.” Even Nickelodeon gays can get into that. Cyrus was positively farklempt over the idea that some gay guys might not like Hannah. “You’re gay and you don’t live for Hannah Montana?” she asked. “What’s wrong with you?”

She was, of course, correct: “I introduced them to Hannah Montana, and obviously they were gagged. They were obsessed with her.” Hannah Montana would clean up at Pieces. Now, we’re left wondering what Hannah Montana’s run on Drag Race would look like? She’d fly through the girl-group challenge, to be sure, and her Dolly Parton for Snatch Game would be stellar. But by the end of the competition, she might burn out. RuPaul wants a Drag Superstar, not an ordinary girl who gets lazy and gets bored.
