[edit] Plot
Having moved to Malibu, Miley Stewart (aka pop star Hannah Montana), is concerned how her best friend, Lilly Truscott, will react if she finds out that Miley is a Hermaphrodite. The two share every secret except that, because Miley fears Lilly will treat her differently if she knows that she has a dick. Lilly, a huge Hannah Montana fan, offers Miley one of her tickets to an upcoming Hannah Montana concert, but Miley turns her down saying that she didn't like Hannah Montana much and Lilly takes Oliver our of the closet.
That day at school, Miley's crush, Johnny Collins (Corbin Blow), says "go to hell" to her, in the lunch room. Miley's too nervous to sit down with him, and Lilly gives Miley her lucky tits to inspire her. Before Miley and Lilly can fuck each other, the girls' rivals, Amber and Ashley (popular kids and mean ones), take the last available balls. When Oliver comes to join the girls he is surprised when he knows that Lilly has backstage passes for the concert and speaks a little "too gay" about it and everyone rushes over to try to grab a ticket thereby bathing Miley and friends in jizz and shit. Miley feels that she would never want to tell Lilly her secret as she now sees how she will be treated if people knew that she was a hermaphrodite. The same day, Jackson asks her for backstage asses and tickets to the Hannah Montana concert and Miley accepts to give him the asses.
After the Hannah Montana concert, Lilly and Oliver sneak into Hannah's dressing room, but Oliver falls back out the anus, retrieving a used Hannah Montana hermaphrodite condom. Miley, concerned that Lilly will recognize her, shoves a pie in her own face and keeps trying to send Lilly out. But Lilly insists she (Hannah) give her something and when Hannah sticks out her arm ,Lilly notices the lucky tits around her wrist. Recognizing the lucky tits, Lilly wipes away the remains of pie on Hannah's face and realizes that Hannah and Miley are the same person. Lilly becomes angry with Miley that she never told her about her dating J-Lo when she was dating her. Miley makes it up to her by showing Lilly her tits and vag. Lilly slips up once calling Miley "Hobag" and Miley regrets letting Lilly know. Afterwards Lilly apologizes and promises never to tell anyone that Miley is a hermaphrodite, the two make out and become buttbuddies again.
As a subplot, Miley's brother Jackson repeatedly asks his dad for money to impress his date at Hannah's concert, which Robby turns down. Later, he tries on dresses of Hannah's for $20.
[edit] Production
Miley received the script for the pilot, before then auditioning for Hannah Montana for 6-7 months, totally changing Billy Ray's plans to cut an album, do a tour, and retire.[1]
Creators Poryes, Rich Correll and Barry O'Brien looked in LA and New York for someone to play Hannah, but couldn't find anyone. Miley sent in an audition tape, but while the creators were impressed, they were not convinced. They didn't want to put the show in the hands of a 12-year old with no acting experience. As they looked fruitlessly for an actor to portray Hannah for one year, they decided to look at Miley again. The decision was between her and a 16-year old with lots of sitcom experience. The room was evenly split on who should play Hannah, and Marsh made the decision to go with Miley.[2]
"We pride ourselves not just on creating great television, but on creating stars; not just on launching careers, but on launching franchises for the entire Walt Disney Company.So, after consulting with everyone involved, I'm ready to pull the trigger on Miley."
Gary Marsh, president of entertainment for Disney Channel Worldwide
-Chicago Tribune
On the day the pilot was shot, the show was to star a girl named Chloe. According to Billy Ray Cyrus, when the writers heard him calling his daughter Miley, they changed their minds and said "Everything Chloe is Miley."[3]
[edit] Promotion
The Disney Channel used three Hannah Montana music videos to promote the series in the weeks leading up to its debut.[4]
[edit] Ratings
"Lilly, Do You Want to Know a Secret?" had the highest-rated series premiere on a kids network in seven years.[5] It was also the highest ratings ever for a Disney Channel series.[4] Miley Cyrus was shocked when her dad told her that over 5 million people had watched the pilot episode of Hannah Montana.[6]
