Seeing as there is a soon-to-be Hannah Montana marathon airing on Disney Channel in December, I thought I would take this time to recognize why I, like many others, adore Miley Cyrus. Not only is she is a singer and actress, but a loving and hilarious human being. So without further ado, here are the reasons I love Miley and why you should too:

1. She's a dog lover

I could really end the list right here.

2. She founded the Happy Hippie Foundation

This foundation helps band together youth to support populations in vulnerable positions.

3. Have you heard her sing Jolene???

If you have yet to hear Miley's rendition of her God mother's (Dolly Parton) Jolene, click the link and watch it now. Miley has nothing but talent.

4. Her eccentric outfits

No matter where she is going you can always depend on Miley's crazy but cute outfits.

5. She is an activist

Everything from LGBTQ+ rights to the Black Lives Matter movement you will see Miley whole-heartedly supporting the fight for equality. She is one of few people in the limelight willing to speak up on issues America is facing, and she rocks for that.

6. Her oh-so-admirable love story

We all know Miley and Liam had a past. We all knew they were meant to be, so when they broke up my heart broke too. When the news that they were dating again arose, I was overjoyed. The heart wants what the heart wants.

7. She is a yogi!!!

All I can say is I have never met a bad person that regularly practices yoga.

8. Her IDGAF personality

Miley genuinely does not give a fuck what anyone thinks. She is so authentically and unapologetically herself.

9. She got to be Ellen for a day

Only the coolest of the cool get to fill in for Ellen when she has a sick day.

10. She's not afraid of her roots

When people come into fame they often forget where they came from, but not Miley! She is a country girl to the core.
