Miley Cyrus Unveils Dad's On-Set Marijuana Habit: Family Drama Exposed!

Miley Cyrus is clearing the air—literally—about what went down behind the scenes of Hannah Montana

The Cyrus Family's Wild Ride: Miley Spills the Tea on Her Childhood and Parenting Drama

Get ready for a dose of reality TV, folks! The one and only Miley Cyrus is clearing the air - literally - about what went down behind the scenes of her hit Disney Channel series Hannah Montana. And trust us, it's a wild ride.

In a hilarious and revealing episode of the Sorry We're Stoned podcast with mom Tish and sister Brandi, the 32-year-old pop star opened up about a core memory from her childhood that still makes her laugh to this day: her dad Billy Ray Cyrus smoking pot on set - and everyone blaming her for it!

The 32-year-old pop star, who starred alongside her dad Billy Ray Cyrus on the hit Disney Channel series from 2006 to 2011, got hilariously candid on the latest episode of the Sorry We’re Stoned podcast with her mom Tish Cyrus and sister Brandi

Brandi, 38, confirmed the story, saying she remembers it like it was yesterday. Miley pointed out their mom Tish wasn't sharing in the fun, since she hadn't started smoking yet (a fact that would later become a major turning point in her life).

Tish, 58, chimed in with a laugh, recalling how she tried to defend Billy Ray at the time: "They were calling me saying 'B-Ray' was smoking pot and I was like, 'Absolutely not, he would never do that!'" Little did we know, this incident would be just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the Cyrus family's wild ride.

Fast forward to more recent times, and Tish has been open about her struggles with anxiety - which she attributes to her former weed use. In a jaw-dropping admission on the Jan. 2 episode of the podcast, she revealed that after quitting cold turkey, she experienced the worst anxiety of her life. Who knew giving up ganja could be so tough?

When a fan wrote in asking, 'What¿s a core memory from the Hannah Montana days that still makes you laugh?', Miley didn¿t miss a beat, replying, 'Dad smoking pot and everyone blaming me for it'

Despite her reservations, Tish is considering revisiting her old habits - and we can't help but wonder if this means a return to her "best self" (as Brandi put it). After all, as Miley said on Reclaiming with Monica Lewinsky last Tuesday, the last seven months have been "so bad" for her mom.

But enough about weed. Let's talk about the real drama: the Cyrus family's messy decade of strife and trauma. In a shocking revelation, Miley spilled that at one point, half of her family members weren't speaking to each other - and it took a major effort to mend those fences without therapy (which they didn't need, as Miley joked). It turns out, loyalty played a huge role in their ultimate reconciliation.

Of course, we can't discuss the Cyrus family drama without mentioning the elephant in the room: Billy Ray's split from Tish after nearly 30 years of marriage and sharing Miley, Braison, 31, and Noah, 25. As Miley revealed on the podcast, she had a lot of loyalty to her mom - which ultimately led to her cleaning up the mess they'd accumulated over the years.

Tish, 58, who's since been open about her marijuana use, chimed in with a laugh, recalling how she tried to defend Billy Ray at the time: 'They were calling me saying ‘B-Ray’ was smoking pot and I was like,

In fact, Miley will be addressing this family drama more directly on her forthcoming album, teasing that a song called "Secrets" is all about wanting her dad to feel safe enough to share the truth about what really went down. Based on these revelations, we can't wait to hear what she has to say.

So there you have it - the Cyrus family's wild ride in all its glory. Who knew so much drama could go down behind those sweet Disney Channel smiles? Stay tuned for more juicy gossip and updates from The Scholarly Note!

The trio then cracked up as they joked about Miley's former Hannah Montana castmate Mitchel Musso taking the blame instead
