Miley Cyrus is Dolly Parton’s Goddaughter, and that is not all. Access Hollywood found out via Ancestry.com that they are seventh cousins once removed.

Dolly’s sixth great-grandfather is Miley’s seventh. John Brickey lived in Tenessee in the early 1800s, about twenty miles from where Dollywood is today.

How does the Country legend feel about that? “That’s amazing,” she said with excitment. “It doesn’t surprise me because she does feel like family. I’ve always said she feels like a niece or a child or whatever. So that is a cool little thing there that you just told me.”

Do you see the resemblance? Now that I think about it, their eyes kind of look alike.

In case you didn’t know, Dolly Parton is Miley Cyrus’ Godmother. So they have a very special bond and have done a lot of things together throughout the years, like host a New Year’s Eve special on NBC.

Now, they have done something they have never done. Miss Dolly asked her Goddaughter if she could record Wrecking Ball for her album Rockstar. Not only that, she asked Miley to duet with her. And what we got is something that will hit you like a wrecking ball because it is still so powerful.

And their messages to each other are just as powerful. Miley wrote, “I’ve grown up covering my Aunt Dolly’s music & it’s an honor to hear her singing one of my songs.

“I love you Aunt Dolly! I’m so happy to add another collaboration under our bedazzled (studded leather) belt! We’re ROCKSTARS now! You can hear so much sweetness and love on this record. Excited to share it with everyone.

“Forever your Doll Baby, Miley”

While Dolly wrote, “When I heard ‘Wrecking Ball’ I almost wept in my car. When it started into the chorus it hit me like a wrecking ball! I thought how great can a song be and how great can
@MileyCyrus be? I thought, I have to have that song on my rock album and I have to have Miley sing it with me! I love it and I hope you do!”

I love their relationship. We should all have one like that.

Rockstar comes out on November 17th.

Before Miley Cyrus sang I Used to BinYoung, she was in Big Fish. How cute was the 10-year-old on that 2003 movie?

When you think of Hannah Montana, you only think of Miley Cyrus in the role. But that was not always the case.

The Used to Be Young singer told the story about how it took her over a year to get the part.

Believe it or not, her first audition was for Lily, the best friend, and not the girl who was leading a double life. But as soon as they saw her audition, they asked her to put herself on tape for the lead role.

They loved her, but there was one big problem. At 11, she was much younger than the other people they cast. Therefore, they went with someone else and shot a pilot.

A year went by, and Disney called her up to audition again and see how much older she looked. This time, she looked old enough to join the cast. So they gave her the part, and the rest is Hollywood history.

But that was not the only reveal she made about casting for the show. She also shared the story about her real-life father, Billy Ray Cyrus, played her dad on the show. Casting thought Billy Ray, who was filming Doc in Toronto at the time, was cute, but they weren’t sure if it was possible for him to do both. Therefore, when Tish Cyrus heard that, she said she would make it happen. And she did.

And now you know Billy Ray and Miley Cyrus became Robby Ray Stewart and Hannah Montana.

Before Miley Cyrus was 30 years old, she used to be young eating Banquet Homestyle Bakes meals. How awwwdorable was the 9-year-old in that 2002 commercial?
