How Miley Cyrus Escaped Disney's Harsh Ownership (They Wanted Nothing to Do With Her) 

fun fact never gonna give you up

What's up Patrick hey can I ask u a question?

The creepy music and low voice ain't it. Its almost unbearable

Disney: spends decades exploiting children Conservatives: this is awesome, take our money Disney: acknowledges minorities exist Conservatives: omg, cancel them

@@fatal353 been working so far so ima keep doing it

🤣🤣🤣 as someone who use grammarly i agree with the ad

😂😂😂

I rewinded to make sure I wasn't missing where the video and ad transitioned 😭 it's genius and hilarious

this man’s advertising is far beyond our understanding bro hit that so smooth almost made me download grammarly

I can literally second that, I also died.

Nah

@@StillTendo Yah

when she got asked if she swears 💀

Disney trolled her by not giving her good money

You can, I'm alright.

Same with Dolly, her godmother. She stated “We just have to trust her right now”. I think everybody in her circle knew what she was doing.

You’re right, this is huge. Compare that to other stars and you can tell what a difference that made.

Turns out it was the plot of another HM episode.

He never tried to “take her down” because she was literally making 10x more money for the family than he ever did not because he cared so much about her especially knowing now that they aren’t even on speaking terms.

I call her rebel phase.... boner jams!

Props for telling children to pole dance and do drugs? Lol great job.

@@HowManyHintsDoYouNeedI think you missed the point

@@user-s0m30n3 I think you missed the fact she had children who looked up to her. What has Miley done since this stupid stunt? Nothing.

@@HowManyHintsDoYouNeed she had to grow up 😂… she didn’t want to be known as “Hannah Montana” she’s Miley and knew that some fans wouldn’t except it. She had to break free from Disney, did you watch the video?

I think the Jonas brothers did the same

Brilliant is being a good person which inturn is trying to do what is appropriate, good & pure.

@Bruh Gizmo fame and millions of money, sounds like a good compensation to me I wouldn’t mind to say the least lol

@Magic Dan Schneider is in no way involved with the reboot.

Yeah because appropriating black culture to keep her popular was BRILLIANT.

Go away

You missed the entire point of the title. She wasn't lucky, she's a freaking genius lol. We all thought she was doing crazy wild stupid ish.. but she was doing it on purpose to get out of her contract.. wow!

you didn't watch the video

The lesson is, you can escape Disney but never a guy without a mustache.

@@TheHonestTruth did they edit the comment?

I never knew they trademarked peoples names. That's freaking sketchy AF

@@ithamarlowe6158Yes, I learned about it way back in the 70s. When The Jackson Five left Motown, they became The Jackson's why?..Coz Motown OWNED their original name. Same thing with Tina Turner, in the divorce from Ike she wanted nothing but her name why? Because everyone white and black knew who Tina Turner was. No one knew Anna Mae Bullock from Nutbush Tennessee!

What about Dave chappelle?

We watched the video too. That’s what it was saying

@@ithamarlowe6158 it's all business. It stops people who shouldn't be marketing off the name doing so. It's less trademarking the person's name, more trademarking the name as a brand. If you couldn't trademark names then what would stop me creating merch for Justin Bieber or Miley Cyrus?

Yeah a one hit wonder knew the industry well, that’s why he sold his daughter to Disney, Billy ray is most likely a nonce and in the club, Miley is defo in the club

Definitely the IDEAL family to take up a child becoming famous. It seems like such a traumatic experience.

well did macaulay culkin have the same?

@@skylineXpert I don't know? Did he? Alot of child stars have parents who extort them so I mean you can always go watch interviews and stuff from McAuley

Whatever happened to Amanda?? I remember her. Wonder what happened??

Well she did say she had to kill the old miley to move on, and its true, most child stars have a hard time finding work after their cute phase is over, cuz people can't separate the two

But Disney is for children so it makes sense if the bottled their actors in that child image to appear child friendly.

@@shenadarling50 From a business standpoint good for disney and from Miley standpoint her wildness was good for her business

@@shenadarling50 the problem is that they're making children be role model to other children while affecting them and their mental health negatively. These kids work for 12 hours go to school and if they're talented like Miley or Demi they also have to make music, record them and go on tour on top of that

@@theoutsiderjess4869 I'm saying this purely to play devil's advocate, but isn't that the case for all children that become wildly successful in media not just Disney stars.

Yupss 💯

Most of what she did was basically just her rebranding to the Miley Cyrus we know today,people back then were upset cuz they saw nothing more than Hannah Montana in Miley

People always want to make Sagittarius ppl look bad when they’re just sweet ppl. Other people do worse yet they pummel her about small shit.

@@xp8969 Hell they don’t even acknowledge Minorities considering they literally filmed near a concentration Camp in Mulan where there where Uyghur Muslims were in there and they thanked the Goverment for filming there

I think it broght a light to child exploitation from Disney and the corpos. Or at least it did to me.

@@xp8969 yikes what kind of woke weirdo typed this 😂😂😂

@@theroseproject9681 awww, I'll apologize for hurting yer feelings but unfortunately th facts don't care 😂

Isn’t that what Kanye doing now.🤷🏽🤷🏽

@@khadraabdulahi2486did he have a life time Disney contracts?

Same, I thought it was stupid then.. but now seeing what she’s done 10 years later, she was really smart and we don’t give her enough credit for that.

It's genius how she played Disney and everyone who thought she was a squeaky clean Disney star.

That was her way of showing she's not meant just for little kids. She wasn't gonna let disney control her. How do you explain the lyrics "It's our party we can do what we want"?

I really overlooked the line “ we run things, things don’t run we.”

@@Wildtingz I thought she was singing "we run dance dance for a week" till literally this year so 🗿

Yea overall very intelligent business woman. I also think having parents experienced in this business had a massive impact on her. Her parents never locked her up but supported her in her ways, but also understood what needed to be done to reach her goals to break free from Disney.

A lot of child actors from the 90s are now total meth heads or crack heads once the poster childs now crack fiends.

Right? Britney was victimized the most! Who knows what they did to her! Britney claims to this day they injected her with drugs and other horrific things not to mention she claims they robotically cloned her. The rumor that she died was debunked by Justin and doctors in the 90’s and Britney herself has mocked those rumors and proved it’s still her because why would her family control a clone when a clone would automatically listen to them? Clones have no free will so they wouldn’t rebel so obviously our Britney has been with us all along plus clones can’t get pregnant because even biological clones don’t have the reproduction to create a baby. Cloners wouldn’t be dumb enough to do that. My dad is a physical scientist and explained this to me. If someone is truly cloned, their DNA may be the same, but they are basically a robot. They have no soul. A normal human being can’t live or breathe without a soul or spirit. A biological clone can’t produce children because they are controlled by technology and programmed from birth. So those people saying Britney died in the 90’s have a screw loose somewhere especially since Britney debunked it herself but yeah Miley was blessed. Out of all the Disney stars she’s the ONLY one who made it and survived without a breakdown. She’s one strong person 💕

Because she knew she is playing a double character on tv.. she wanted out from disney.. and thats what she did

@@ammarammar4045 i’m talking about the psychology of it obviously. for a child growing up as a character or public figure there’s more to it than that

I didn't check the video to see how old it is but when I read your comment I was in awe because it feels like it has been released some months ago or a year ago at max, "Wrecking Ball" and "We can't stop" feel so recent, Miley meant a lot to me growing up.

They also threw A 'wrecking ball' on traditional animation.

This comment really backs us my claims I've also said in just the last 10 years society worldwide has deteriorated morally more than in the past 400 years It's shocking. I really don't want to live in this world too long, severe depression is the normal mental state of most ppl. We see ppl killed for no reason. Its crazy

@@lunaa2926 lmao while we live in the safest time in earths history. NUT UP

@@michaelsnyder8661 haha life isn't safe!!

I agree. I can def see her dad telling her to make these decisions.

Long ago I thought "wth is her parents thinking, letting her be like that" Now, I realize they took a really risky and brave decision for doing all that. Huge respect for them

There was a pictorial she did with her dad (not creepy but it was very… “he is okay with hanging with his daughter when she’s dressed like that?!?” and it makes a lot more sense now.

I feel like Billy Ray Cyrus is a great dad

@@kagato23wow I remember that and I thought it was weird but now he just seems like an amazing dad lol

What do you mean?

@@bohlalenchabeleng1370 this miley cyrus black mirror episode ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8AjLfJJIyrg.html

That was more based on Brittany Spears drama but okay

@@sheyannebarton1235 Yes, I'm aware of the metaphors made in the show were related to Spears "Free Britney" which was a powerful message. But you must not forget that Miley was casted by Charlie Brooke for a reason. Miley brought the experience to life due to her relations with the character. She was perfect for the role.

Especially appropriate that dad in the Black Mirror episode was a "mouse killer"

Yes such an inspiration whilst having such negative influence over children...🙄

she’s not an inspiration. this is all a white perspective. she exploited black culture to do this, she could’ve went ‘wild’ without going ‘urban/black’. she did a lotta things wrong

@@runimcomingforyou.4505 it's your fault if you can't teach your own children to listen to gospel music instead of satanic pop music.

She is no saint. She is closer to the devil than she is to God, stop idolizing people so much.

@@runimcomingforyou.4505 it's the parents job to monitor their kids

I don't know anyone who thinks she lost her mind. It's pretty obvious everything she did was planned and ran through all the people involved. It's funny to see all the people like you who are so shocked by everything.

@@AmysAttitude Jesus, I can smell the superiority complex you’re trying to ride here. Congratulations for being in the few bubbles that believed she was sane but in 2013 most people ran their mouths about how fame got to her and what not

@@simbatheking1005right 😭 and most of us were like 13 when this was all happening i guess this guys that intelligent

It was she's really smart I love her

🤣🤣🤣Got me too

I lolled

This comment is what I'm looking for. That ad was definitely unexpected 😂

Made me LOLOL😂

like bro🤣🤣🤣👌

Its great how much your opinions can change as adult or a child. As a child I didn't like her wild phase and didn't understand why it happened but as an adult who understands how evil Disney/hollywood can be I think what she did was smart and the best thing for her career

@Natt:3 Not really...

@@AbsoleteAim she is right you are wrong

And also the fame she brought about was the complete opposite of the imagery that disney sells. So by bigging up her new image, she also forcefully distanced herself from the Disney persona.

@@seyio1717 It can't be proven that either opinion is wrong, what are you talking about

Ah, the glorified relationship of her and bieber made us realized that she was just another heartbroken teenager. And the best part is, bieber gets the villain part while she can keep singing about her relationship. Very wise indeed

selena got sick. that illness hindered her to be "adventurous".

I'm guessing you mean Selena Gomez because there is only one Selena powerful enough to be just one name and she didn't make it out.

What are you talking about? Selena was always an angel, why are you suggesting something nefarious?

She wasn’t hiding much she’s just very boring and media trained. What scandal did you expect from Selena ?

ABSOLUTELY!!💯💯💯💯💜💜💜💜💜

Yeah that was my first thought. I'm surprised he didn't catch that and spun a whole conspiracy theory instead

Then how did Warner own Prince's name?

The legal theory expressed by Patrick here is abominated. You can't just weasel out of contracts by changing your name. The point is, she changed her situation. the contract stayed the same, but her situation changed.

@@ahhchoo8488 he probably could have released music under 'Prince Nelson' . I guess it just coincided with his legal name. He would have signed off on it.

@@hiimjustin8826 you’re wrong, they totally can. Emma Stone has talked a lot about this - her real name is Emily Stone, and she wanted to use her real name as her stage name but it was already taken so she had to change it to Emma Stone. They can’t trademark your real name but they definitely can trademark a stage name, and you can’t use it if it’s already trademarked, even if it is your real name

bad management can be a real doozey no matter how well funded or connected an entity is, I'm just glad she got anything considering how little the mouse had miley's interest at heart

i thought the same thing. Miley talked about this once. She said that while they were in the Ent industry.. TV and Disney are wayyyyy different than the music industry. Basically they thought what they were doing was standard not realizing they were getting taken advantage of

I would imagine they also saw the show as her first real big break, especially at first. She was basically unknown to us until HM. I also doubt they expected her fame to blow up as huge as it did & so quickly. The other problem is how much these companies can take advantage of a musician when their musical career is directly tied to a character they own. I heard of the same thing happening to the biggest Mexican pop group Rebelde/RBD who had sold out shows worldwide but weren’t really making much money & certainly no royalties because their music careers were directly tied to their Telenovela (also called Rebelde). Again, the artists were young & not huge stars before the show, they also had not expected their music careers to take off the way they did because of the show. Due to contracts, these companies own them for some time.

The contract is key to any business deal. My engineering contacts teach told the class many times, if you can't work things out in the contact while everyone is in love with each other thinking of the millones they'll make together, things won't work in the long run. Always be sure to review the contract and negotiate whatever needs to be changed. Companies generally don't suddenly decide to update the contact to give away profits. That's why they should have contacted a lawyer or consultant upfront if they didn't fully know the industry standards. They even could have limited the terms to year before they'd need to renegotiate. There's lots of options up front, but once the deal is signed, not much can legally be done.

I read that her dad had to be on the show in order for her to get the part so maybe that has something to do with it

What’s sad is that as a kid, you read all of these articles and things on the media about how she’s “gone crazy” but in reality she was trying to escape the crazy

She had a stable mom and dad in her life. Very rare for Hollywood.

Yeah I mean, just think about it, while she was going through this "crazy phase", did she ever have to go rehab? Did she ever get a DUI? Get injured? Overdose? Get into any kind of real trouble at all? Nope. There aren't even that many photos of her partying apart from when she was promoting her album. That's the clear give away that it was all just for show to escape the Disney image.

How sad

His around the same age. Nothing's sad about growing up seeing someone famous grow up in contrast of your life. It's called life

yeah, she has a very interesting "character"

Hehe old and bald

Calm down it’s just a ho

Yeah it’s not so easy being a child star with fans constantly hating you for not being the image they want/remember. It’s a huge reason why child stars go crazy.

The thing here is I understand that Miley wanted to break free from Disney I just wish that she didn't glamorize drugs at the time that's all. :(

I was the same way at first, but then I had to take a few steps back and realize that people need space to be themselves, while recognizing that the character they play on tv is not necessarily who they are in real life.

Same i remember when i was 8 during the bangerz faze i would tell everyone how much i missed the “old her” and would literly prey for her to become “good” again but now i understand why she did it and like her better as her true self lol

This

Right I did the same thing you should check out her new stuff I love her pink album so much

I used to hate in her when she was on the Hannah Montana show. Eventually, I stopped caring about her. Now, I know why she did what she did. She wanted to break away from her Hannah Montana image.

She was seeking attention though lmfao

@@HowManyHintsDoYouNeed and you loved it 😜

It was her mom who signed her up for that one sided Disney contract in the first place 🤷‍♂️

@@jasonallen3678 I don’t know the specifics but I would imagine that they didn’t really have much negotiating power in the beginning. His dad isn’t really that big of a deal compared to Disney so what can they possibly negotiate with?

@@miggywiggy You're correct. Billy Ray Cyrus back in the early 2000's was just a washed up one hit wonder. Hannah Montana revived his career! When Miley was auditioning, they did not care that she was a Cyrus. She was denied the role several times. Her dad was casted after the pilot. And her character's name was Zoey later changed to Chloe. It's because of her dad messing up takes by calling her by her real name Disney changed it to Miley Stewart. Things snow balled from there and they started to write the series around her real life.. I think it's because of that- that people think "Her daddy bought her a show" when that's far from the truth lol

@@nerdymisc3402 Yeah but billy Jean’s one hit gained him some attention

Blondie is iconic People who go through a "Blondie" stage are not

@@mistiroberts1576 that is your perspective, what Deborah and their band did will always be timeless. However, it doesn’t mean someone cannot succeed in their success. It may not be your standards of “iconic” but she’s undeniably found a brand that’s suitable for her

@@TheRealAdaWong if you copy someone else you arent iconic.

@@mistiroberts1576 Jayne Mansfield rose out of Marilyn’s style, Ariana Grande debut on top charts hitting Mariah’s notes and covering her songs, and Jennifer Lopez was put on the map after Selena. In which their fame would far eclipse the projects or period they branded themselves in initially, there is no such thing as copying when homage is being paid by one that was set forth by their successor. Besides, you’re failing to realize Miley has already achieved iconism through Hannah Montana as a child star, everything done past that point has been her own decision.

@@TheRealAdaWong Jayne Mansfield was a contemporary of M.M. and wore the contemporary styles of the day- she was really nothing like MM and was doing her own thing Ariana Grande is a Disney cookie cutter pop star with bubblegum music and no originality. She is famous because of Disney Jennifer Lopez is a 0 talent lackey whose only claim to fame is playing a character similar to herself and Miley Cyrus is trying to be the new Madonna. None of these people are original or iconic.

And people think she wasn't attention seeking. 😂😂

luckily they had wizards of waverly place which kept their ratings high

@@PatrickCc ....don't tell me, let me guess, Disney screwed those people too?

@@J-leaf To put it plainly… Yes 🤷🏻‍♀️

@@elianasrv for f**k sakes

@@J-leaf they screwed everyone over it seems

Same! I absolutely loved the Bangerz era. Hannah Montana premiered when I was like 6 and I still remember seeing the first commercial for the show, literally from that day on she has meant so much to me. All throughout everything I’ve always loved seeing how she grew and evolved. Although her psychedelic era with Wayne Coyne wasn’t my favorite tbh, I thought it was slightly odd, but I still loved that she was having fun and being herself. But the Bangerz era was my favorite, in fact I found it exciting when she cut her hair and well.. the rest is literally history.

yesssss she's honestly so inspiring bc she's changed so much through the years and always seems to just be growing more into herself. i love it and her energy so much. :)))

Yeah me too I feel so sad that they made a character out of her who she really is and took her name she had went through so much and had to work even harder to get away from it. I love can't stop and I still listen to her Disney music because I'm a nostalgic girl

It’s sad not real

lol

people really only think of an image when it comes to miley but she is insanely talented. she always sang wonderfully but her voice got so amazing with age!!!

Her and zemdaya

Definitely an icon.

And Justin timberlake... Brittney spears...Christina Aguilera

I admire whoever backed her risk taking, walk forward bravely.

They've been greedy since Walt Disney had a creation taken away from him by another studio. Especially once Eisner took over.

I think people judged her harshly because they didn't get why she "went crazy." I admit that I didn't get it either, but now I sure do.

Disney is very VERY dark. You are just scratching the surface.

@@chillylizerd yes whoever stood with her through it all, they are friggin heroes man

The bigger the reward the higher risk you have, it's like any other life endagering jobs

@@stellviahohenheim absolutely, equal exchange, but given the kids young age when they start, a line must be drawn sooner or later

@@stellviahohenheim Yes, but usually people make informed choices to engage in these life endangering jobs as adults. Miley and the other disney stars were just innocent, naive little kids.

Wow you seem to have been spot on, time traveler!

That is not what Kanye is doing. Kanye is unstable and won't take his meds. Miley is perfectly stable. Plus what conglomerate would Kanye be trying to force to distance themselves from him?

I don’t know if what Kanye is doing now has anything similar to what Miley did, because first he was not known as a young prince, who could never do anything wrong and had to be perfect all the time, second he’s name is not attached to any huge conglomerate. If he does what he does to see himself far from the Kardashian’s name I think he is doing wrong, ‘cause it gives them more more marketing and they don’t care about bad publicity, they want any kind of publicity.

@@nicolethompson2399 He has binds with companies like Baalenciaga that I’m sure he’d love to be dropped.

@@nicolethompson2399 Honestly I never really liked Kanye much but the more and more I hear him talk.. The more hes starting to make sense. I think this man is perfectly sane and calculated.

@@dujuanwilliamson5246 yeah I'm 25 so these videos have been very nostalgic but at the same time showing the person they are today. Pat's stumbled upon a very great idea for a video series. I hope he gets a lot of growth on yt from this.

She actually does cuss a little.

she has a new song in her latest album “Plastic Hearts” about this called Golden G String

Looking back on it why were people so obsessed with seeing celebrity’s have a down fall, it was so bad that even South Park called everyone out on it for basically attacking people for no reason than “oh they’re famous”

Yeah some "humans" don't get the luxury of leaving big corp family like Disney. They just go straight to hell if they step outside the box.

Me too. My daughter was on her fan base at the time so I'm very familiar with this time in her life.

I could’ve sworn there was an episode of HM like that-where she pretended to be horrible and dumb to be dropped form something. She probably got inspiration from that xD Either way, atta girl!!!!

You lost me at shia tf lol the guy was forced into pop culture exile and youre saying he succeeded? Lol

Facts!

People can seriously expect her to be Hannah Montana for the rest of her life she's going to grow up and going to want to do growing up things deal with it that's her business not ours we can't change people or make them into something they're not or someone they don't want to be

@@loganthorpe2543 lmao bro never said he wasn’t but this new wave of content is my jam!

It was basically prime age for me. I also have 4 sisters so I was around a lot of "girly" things

@@PatrickCc Same boat with the whole "being around plenty of girly stuff" thing. Back in those days I was also extremely familiar with stuff like Winx Club and the early Barbie animated movies because of my sister (And I can admit that I enjoyed the former quite a bit). This sentiment still lives on to an extent in present times as, whenever the family is all together, she openly brings up various KPop and Anime stuff that she's now into.
