LOS ANGELES, Calif. --
Miley Cyrus may have already closed Disneyland down for an early celebration of her Sweet 16 birthday, but that was just the beginning of the celebration for the Disney star. Miley’s dad, Billy Ray Cyrus, may have gotten his daughter the best possible gift for a young singing sensation and it’s not a new Mercedes.
“No, she didn’t want a Mercedes, she wanted a recording studio,” Billy Ray told Access Hollywood’s 2008 American Music Awards guest correspondent Quddus Sunday night. “She just wanted a place to record there at the house. She’s been writing a lot of songs a lot of really great material.”
And Miley won’t be the only singer in the house spending some time in the new studio — at least according to dad.
“It’s a great place for us to get up there and work out some tunes and sing,” Billy Ray continued. “We both love doing harmonies and we could just jump in there and make all kinds of music and be real creative.”
As for Miley, she couldn’t be happier.
“It’s gonna be dope! I’m so stoked!” Miley told Access on Sunday, which was also the “Hannah Montana” star’s actual birthday. “I think I get it tomorrow. I think it gets like all put in.”
Billy Ray may have his sights set on logging some hours behind the mic too, but not if Miley has anything to say about it.
“He’s not touching it, he’s not touching it! It’s mine,” Miley said. “It’s in my room. No one’s touching it but me. They’ll ruin it.”
As for the rumors of a Mercedes, Miley said needs a little more time before she gets behind the wheel.
“I don’t even have my license or anything so it’d be kind of like dumb to get one and just let it sit,” Miley added. “I’d like to wait until I’m more ready for the road, cause I don’t know if the roads are ready for me yet!”
