‘Alex being a superfan, kinda creepy, she’s also my neighbor which is also creepy. She got money and then she moved next door to me so there was no other host [For The Hannah Montana Special]. She's like “omg you live… pic.twitter.com/JXRzzO9je3
The singer made the remark while addressing the crowd at Sunset Gower Studios in Hollywood on Monday night, where Cooper hosted the highly anticipated Disney+ event.
Cyrus, 33, leaned into Cooper’s reputation as a superfan, teasing her for moving in next door after finding success.
“Alex being a superfan is kind of creepy. She’s also my neighbour, which is also creepy,” Cyrus said in a video circulating on X. “She got money and then she moved next door to me, so there was no other host.”
She then doubled down with a sharper jab, referencing a past interview.
“She was like, ‘Oh my god, you live here?’ She interviewed me at my house five years ago. You know where I live,” Cyrus added, drawing loud laughs from the audience.
The moment quickly stood out from the night, blending humour with a slightly awkward edge that fans picked up on across social media.
Despite the teasing, Cyrus made it clear she values Cooper’s involvement in the project, praising her for being deeply invested in the legacy of the show.
The Disney+ special marks 20 years since Hannah Montana first aired, the series that launched Cyrus into global fame.
Speaking to Variety earlier this month, Cyrus credited Cooper with playing a major behind-the-scenes role, from shaping the set and music to helping secure Selena Gomez’s cameo.
“She understands Hannah in a way that I couldn’t,” Cyrus said. “I never got to experience Hannah being out there with fans like that.”
Cyrus also revealed that the opening sequence, which sees her driving from her Malibu home to the Hollywood soundstage, was Cooper’s idea.
“I didn’t think about the connection between Hannah’s Malibu house and my own,” she said, referencing her home being destroyed and later rebuilt.
The Hannah Montana 20th Anniversary Special was officially announced on February 17 and has now premiered on Disney+.
While Emily Osment and Mitchel Musso were absent from the event, both shared tributes online, reflecting on their time on the iconic Disney Channel series.
The premiere also saw Cyrus revisit her early career and the role that defined a generation, with the anniversary special leaning heavily into nostalgia and fan connection.
