Singer Miley Cyrus said she would not do a "Hannah Montana" reboot because it would mean spending too much time with her father.
The 24-year-old singer found fame playing Miley Stewart and her titular pop star alter ego on the Disney television show which ran from 2006 to 2011.
Cyrus said she doesn't think she'd ever don the blonde wig again because she wouldn't want to spend "a lot of time" with her father Billy Ray Cyrus, who also played her on-screen dad Robbie Ray Stewart, reported Contactmusic.
When asked if she'd ever revive the show, the "Malibu" singer said, "Probably not. Probably not because ... It's a lot of time to be spent with my dad. You know, my dad was my dad on the show. I have enough dad time. That was really hard every day from, like, [ages] 11 to 18. I didn't get a school escape like most people. I went to work with my dad.
"And then I started driving my dad toward the end, when I could start driving. And then my grandma went with me every day. It was a lot of time with dad and grandma. That's why as soon as I turned 18, you guys wonder why I was twerking at Juicy J shows. I had just spent 10 years every day with my dad and grandma. I had to break free.
