Four seasons of Hannah Montana aired between 2006 and 2011, and the sitcom really took off. More than five million viewers were already at the premiere and not only the girls stayed with the bar. No wonder, because with Miley Cyrus (29) aka “Miley Ray Stewart” and Emily Osment (30) aka Lillian “Lilly Truscott” they followed two of the great TV heroines of their time.
Emily Osment as Hannah Montana’s best friend
The fact that Emily Osment got the role of Lilly – she had to audition several times – is also due to the fact that Miley Cyrus completely convinced the producers: She actually auditioned as Lilly, but was then hired as the main character. This freed up space for Emily, who knew how to use her chance as Lilly and henceforth put her stamp on the series as Miley’s best friend. It is also she who first learns of Miley’s double life as Hannah Montana.
“Lilly” actress still in demand for series
A look at Emily Osment’s filmography reveals: “Hannah Montana” was a milestone in the Californian’s career, but it was one of many and her path is far from over. Emily Osment, who has also made a name for herself as a singer, may not be one of the very first in Hollywood, but she remains in demand. Most recently, she has appeared in numerous series, including the US comedy “Young Sheldon” in 2022 and before that in “Almost Family”. She was also in “Pretty Smart”, but Netflix canceled the series after the first season. From 2018 to 2012 she played Theresa in the series “The Kominsky Method”.
Anyone who wants to stay up to date with Emily Osment will find what they are looking for on Instagram, where the 30-year-old regularly provides around two million followers with news and private pictures, including some sexy shots while relaxing by the pool. However, not much is known about her private life and the occasional rumors about an upcoming engagement have never been confirmed.
