6 Fun Facts About Miley Cyrus’ Episode of Black Mirror

Say goodbye to Hannah Montana and Miley Cyrus. There is now only Ashley O. 

Cyrus transformed into a new purple-haired pop star for an episode of the new season of Netflix’s Black Mirror, titled “Rachel, Jack, and Ashley Too.” Ashley O is a perky singer who hands out messages like “believe in yourself!” and “be who you wanna be!” and she’s also secretly being controlled by her greedy aunt/manager. 

When that greed gets out of control, it’s up to two teen girls and a doll carrying Ashley’s consciousness to save the pop star from a a hologram fate, and if that sounds like it could be the plot of a Disney Channel Original Movie, you’re not totally wrong. 

In fact, if this had aired on the Disney Channel, our only confusion would have been, “Huh. I didn’t know you could say the F word on the Disney Channel!” (All of this is a compliment. DCOMs are great.)

Creators Charlie Brooker and Annabel Jones have recently spoken about the episode in multiple interviews, and Cyrus herself did a short interview with The Guardian explaining why she signed on and just how close it felt to her real experiences.

Black Mirror is now streaming on Netflix.
