has branded 'superfan' Alex Cooper 'kinda creepy' as she opened up at the Hannah 20th Anniversary Special in Hollywood on Monday.
The actress and singer, 33, playfully called out the Call Her Daddy podcaster, 31, for moving next door to her as she joked while on stage at the El Capitan Theatre to celebrate her beloved Disney Channel teen sitcom.
The Grammy-Award winning star thanked Alex, who hosted the special, for helping her bring the nostalgic anniversary to life after she 'creepily' moved in next door to her after interviewing her in her garden in August 2020.
Miley said: 'I wanted to thank Alex myself because I was driving out to the archives to go look what I had collected, some say hoarded but I say collected and preserved from every era and not just Hannah Montana but throughout my career.
'But I called her with this wild idea, "Do you think it could be a good idea to do a Hannah Montana anniversary special?" But because I was in the middle of it and was Hannah I didn't know what you would all want.
'Alex being a superfan... it's kinda creepy... she is also my neighbour, which is also creepy. She got money and then moved next door to me.'
The Disney alum joked: 'There was no other host, I was like I'll just walk next door, yeah it was weird.
'And she was like, "Oh my god you live here" and she had interviewed me at my house five years ago so she new where I was.'

The special - filmed in front of a live studio audience - is set to premiere on March 24, and will stream on both Disney+ and Hulu.
