- During her acceptance speech, a tearful Cyrus, 31, said: "I’m gonna let everybody get on a little Disney Legend secret. I’m the one that tells you what you’re not supposed to know. And what I want to say is that legends get scared, too."
- She continued: "I’m scared right now, but the difference is we do it anyway, and all of you can do that every single day. It’s legendary to be afraid and do it anyway. There is no such thing as failure when you try."
- When it ran between 2006 and 2011, 'Hannah Montana' enjoyed an average 4.4 million viewers per episode and still holds the record for the highest-rated basic cable series telecast with 10.7 million viewers for one of its episodes in 2007.
