Ten years ago, Hannah Montana was bestowed upon us, teaching a generation of kids that if you throw on a long, blonde wig, your identity will be completely hidden. The stars of Hannah Montana have been busy in the decade since she first appeared on the Disney Channel. After the show wrapped in 2011, Miley Cyrus became a successful pop star, Instagram celebrity, and tongue enthusiast. Emily Osment, who played Montana's BFF Lily, has been starring in the Freeform comedy Young and Hungry since 2014. And Jason Earles, who played the big brother on the show, hopped from one Disney Channel series to another, Kickin' It, which ran until 2015.
But the core cast members aren't the only actors who had an impact on the Hannah Montana universe. Stars from other Disney Channel franchises stopped by. There were appearance from actresses about to make it big, and some who were already legends. So, prepare to get nostalgic and revisit the brightly colored, super-hyper world of Hannah Montana. You never know: One of these guest appearances could be the answer to a crucial trivia question.
Angus T. Jones on "Sweet Home Hannah Montana" (2010)
Jones, of Two and a Half Men fame, appeared as the annoying cousin of a bikini model on whom Jackson develops an instant crush.
Larry David on "My Best Friend's Boyfriend" (2007)
Larry David played himself, and was not happy to learn he wasn't quite as famous as Hannah Montana.
Alison Brie on "It's My Party and I'll Lie If I Want To" (2006)
By 2007 she'd be on Mad Men, and by 2009 she'd co-star on Community, but in 2006 she was just the world's worst hairdresser on Hannah Montana.
Ray Romano on "We're All on This Date Together" (2008)
Hannah Montana doesn't know who Ray Romano is, which means she really was busy with her double life — so busy she never turned on network TV in the late afternoon.
Joey Fatone on "Bye Bye Ball" (2008)
Fatone felt compelled to share his musical gifts with the next generation of Disney Channel kids. And he did it in a questionable outfit that still isn't the most embarrassing thing he's ever worn.
Corbin Bleu on "We're All on This Date Together" (2008) and "Lily, Do You Want to Know a Secret" (2006)
Bleu played Montana's mystery date on the show, one of his many projects on the network. In addition to playing Chad in all three High School Musical movies, he starred in the Disney Channel Original Movie Jump In!, and lent his voice to several episodes of Phineas and Ferb.
Dolly Parton on "Good Golly, Miss Dolly" (2006), "I Will Always Loathe You" (2007), and "Kiss It All Goodbye" (2010)
If you were any kind of Hannah Montana fan, you most likely remember that the legendary Dolly Parton showed up for three episodes to play Miley's godmother. If you just caught a few episodes while babysitting, well, now you know.
The Jonas Brothers on "Me and Mr. Jonas and Mr. Jonas and Mr. Jonas" (2007)
Believe it or not, this Hannah Montana episode marked the Jonas Brothers' Disney Channel debut. Playing themselves, the siblings recorded "We Got the Party" with Hannah on the show.
