Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that is hardlaunching Ellie's engagement! This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out with very special guest, Ellie’s fiancée, Bailey Katsumata-Smith (@baileykatsu), to talk about why iconic Disney Channel Original Series Hannah Montana, Should’ve Been Gay. If you were around in 2006, whether you were an elementary school kid or a high school teen, you were probably watching Hannah Montana. This series was such a massive deal that Bailey was bullied in the 4th grade for not being allowed to watch it. Hannah Montana follows the chaotic double life of Miley Stewart (played by real life queer icon Miley Cyrus) as she navigates being a “regular high schooler” while hiding her secret drag identity as pop star Hannah Montana from everyone except her very best girlfriend, Lilly. This girl spends 4 whole seasons literally going in and out of the largest closet we’ve ever seen, a closet she and Lilly go in specifically to transform into their flamboyant alter egos, Hannah Montana and Lola Luftnagle. Miley’s wig collection likely rivals Chappell Roan’s and we all had a pair of those baggy cargo shorts that Lilly was always rocking while skateboarding into view. Yet, Disney still forced us to watch 4 seasons of Miley and Lilly’s chemistry being tossed aside for lame, forgettable boys. We know one thing for sure, Hannah Montana Should’ve Been Gay. Don’t forget to stream Bailey’s debut single, Bittersweet Bitch, for Olivia Rodrigo vibes and a sick Hannah Montana inspired guitar solo.
