Hannah Montana Drama: Miley Cyrus' Castmate Denies Pot Claims on Set

Miley Cyrus', 32, former castmate hit back at her claims that he had smoked pot while on set of Hannah Montana

Miley Cyrus' Wild Ride: Former Castmate Mitchel Musso Fires Back After Singer's Weed Claims

Get ready for a blast from the past! Miley Cyrus, 32, is stirring up drama from her Hannah Montana days, and it looks like things are about to get messy. In a recent episode of Sorry We're Cyrus, her mom Tish and sister Brandi's podcast, the pop star made some shocking claims about her former co-star Mitchel Musso, 33.

According to Miley, her dad Billy Ray Cyrus would often smoke pot on set, and she alleges that Mitchel was also a regular user during their time on the hit Disney show. But Mitchel is firing back, denying Miley's claims and hinting at some juicy stories of his own from those wild Hannah Montana days.

Mitchel told E! News that he doesn't remember things going down the way Miley described, but he's happy to dish out some dirt if Miley wants to revisit their past. "If we're revisiting Hannah Montana history - just say the word," he said with a wink.

The drama started when Miley revealed on her podcast that her dad Billy Ray would often smoke pot on set and that Mitchel was also a user during their time on the show. But Mitchel is denying those claims, saying that's not how he remembers things going down.

This isn't the first time Mitchel has found himself in hot water. Back in 2013, he was arrested for DUI suspicion, and in 2023, he was arrested again - this time for public drunkenness and allegedly stealing a bag of chips from a motel in Texas. The charges were eventually dropped, but it's clear that Mitchel has had his share of run-ins with the law.

'Well, that's not how I remember it,' Musso expressed. 'However, I've got plenty of stories from those years that might be worth having a conversation about'; seen in 2018 in Hollywood

Miley's claims about her dad Billy Ray smoking pot on set are just the latest chapter in a long history of family drama for the Cyrus clan. In recent months, Miley has been opening up about the trauma and strife she experienced during her childhood, including the rough patch when her parents were going through a divorce.

But it looks like things are finally looking up for Miley. She recently surprised fans by revealing that she's been working on mending fences with her family members - without the help of a therapist! "We're so messy, we didn't even do any of that," Miley joked on Reclaiming with Monica Lewinsky.

Miley's journey to healing has been a long and winding road, but it looks like she's finally found some peace. And who knows? Maybe Mitchel will follow her lead and start mending his own fences. After all, as the saying goes - there's always time for a little forgiveness and closure.
