Miley Cyrus Recalled Her Work Schedule When She Was 12
Last year,Miley Cyrustook to TikTok and revealed her intense work schedule that she had forHannah Montanaat just 12 years old, which included nonstop prep, interviews, and travel. She said that her day started with a 5:30 A.M. with hair and makeup session. “I was probably like 12 or 13,” Cyrus said.
It was a day packed with interviews, shoots, and meetings. She said:
“We get picked up. 7:15 — I’m on the news. 7:45 — I have another live interview. 8:15 — another interview. 8:45 — another interview. 9:30 to 11 a.m. — meeting with editors, back to the hotel. OK, I have to do an interview, but the reporters are all fifth-grade students. 1 to 2:30 — me and my dad have a lunch interview. 2:40 — we have to go to the Life magazine photoshoot. 3 to 5 — interview and photoshoot for the Father’s Day issue. Arrive at 6 p.m. for kids’ online interview, then at 6:15, we have another interview. Then the next day starts at 7 a.m. and ends at 7:30 p.m. when I fly home to probably go to Hannah [Montana] — that’s on a Saturday and then Monday be back at work in the morning…” (ViaVariety)
“I’m a lot of things, but lazy ain’t one of them. So… I do think this girl deserves a little endless summer vacation,” Cyrus concluded with a laugh.

As she shed light on her days in her childhood, it gives fans some real concern as to how these child actors are made to follow the hectic work routine, saying that they need some protection.
What Fans Have to Say Regarding This?
As Cyrus spoke about how child actors were treated by big studios, it’s noteworthy that she is not the only kid from that period to reveal such things.
Jenna Ortega talked on theArmchair Expertpodcast about how she spent some “crazy hours” during the filming of Disney’sStuck in the Middle.Even Stevensstar Christy Carlson Romano also advocated for better protection for child actors, per Fox News (ViaNew York Post).
Of course Disney exploits children. They’ve been doing a lot more to them than breaking child labor laws.
Now Disney is promoting gender ideology.
Keep your kids away!

According to theUS Department of Labour website, a child actor needs at least 12 hours of rest between one working day and the next day. For example, in California, a child actor whose age falls between 9 years and 16 years old is allowed to work 5-7 hours daily. And fans thus placed their concern over the matter.
