American singer Miley Cyrus recently opened up about the `identity crisis` she suffered after playing the role of Hannah Montana in Disney Channel`s famous sitcom `Hannah Montana`. As per E! News, in a recent interview with Spotify`s Rock This with host Allison Hagendorf, the `Plastic Hearts` hitmaker spoke about how her early days of fame on the popular show in which she played a teen also named Miley who had a secret identity as a superstar, messed with her head.

"Talk about an identity crisis," she said of playing the titular role of the regular teen by day, pop star by night on the show for seasons from 2006 to 2011. "I had gone from being a character almost as often as I was myself. And actually, the concept of the show is that when you`re this character, when you have this alter ego, you`re valuable. You`ve got like millions of fans, you`re like the biggest star in the world. And then the concept was that when I looked like myself when I didn`t have the wig on anymore, that no one cared about me. I wasn`t a star anymore," Cyrus said.
